The Dilly hotel on Piccadilly in central London has added a new sporting element to its health club – a Golfzon simulator which offers an indoor golf experience.
Voted the world’s best golf simulator five years running by Golf Digest magazine, this new experience is available for both guests and visitors and gives virtual access to more than 200 of the world’s best golf courses, including St Andrews Old Course, Celtic Manor and Pebble Beach. Using CGI graphics to create a realistic golf simulation experience, the Golfzon technology features a multitude of sensors and cameras that analyse ball flight data in real-time, to help improve the golfer’s swing and game.
James Olivier, The Dilly’s general manager, said: “Whether you are an avid golfer or looking for an alternative after work social for friends or colleagues, the Golfzon simulator is highly sophisticated, easy to use and fun. We are very proud to introduce this to Londoners and our in-house guests, which allows players to enjoy a round of golf and/or work on their game, in the heart of central London, all year round, whatever the weather.”
Up to 12 people can join the golf experience, with up to six people at a time playing a multiplayer traditional round, or alternatively mix it up with a game of skins. Two hours is recommended for groups of six or more, as only six players can compete individually at any one time in each game type.
Golf at The Dilly offers the use of high-quality Titleist clubs and provides the golf balls – golfers can bring their own clubs if they prefer. Corporate bookings are available for groups and bookings must be made in advance.
Health Club at The Dilly also includes one of London’s largest indoor hotel swimming pools, two squash courts and a dance studio.
