The Renaissance Concourse Hotel
Location :*** One mile away from the terminal with a free shuttle bus, not that you will need to leave the hotel room ! Spotting :*** Quite possibly the best spotting hotel in the USA. Ask for a room overlooking the airport and you will get a room with balcony overlooking the nearby thresholds. You need to be on the 6th floor or above to get the elevation for unobstructed views. An ACARS or SBS 1 unit will also enable movements to be identified on the far runways in the event of heat haze. Rooms 1022 and 1025 are confirmed as having great views. Photos : *** Simply a case of sitting on the balcony with a 200-400 lens and snap away ! A 300 lens is required for most runway shots on the nearest runway to you. Value ** Between £68-£125 a night per room but well worth it for hassle free spotting/photography.
