Greenwich Novotel hotel to have exterior cladding replaced

The Novotel hotel in Greenwich by the railway station have plans to replace elements of their facade.

Running a site alone takes time and a fair bit of money. Adverts are far from enough to cover it and my living costs as a private renter.
