It was home to a host of stars in the early 2000s such as Jay-Jay Okocha, Ivan Campo and Nicolas Anelka during Sam Allardyce’s time in charge.

The ground holds over 28,000 supporters and even staged European football back in 2007/08 – including a famous victory over Atletico Madrid in the Uefa Cup.

However, after Big Sam’s departure, the club’s form dropped dramatically and they were eventually relegated from the Premier League in May 2012.

They have failed to return to the top-flight since and even dropped all the way down to League Two after years of financial chaos caused havoc at the club.

Luckily for the Trotters they now appear to be on the way back and are pushing for promotion back to the Championship as they ride high in League One.

And they have come up with a way of generating some extra income through a hotel that is built into the Toughsheet Community Stadium.

The Bolton Stadium Hotel is fully integrated into the ground and offers rooms that “are modern and spacious with en-suite bathrooms” plus all the facilities that you would expect for making a brew.

But the best feature of all is that many of the rooms come with a pitch-side view.

They are priced from £115-a-night – giving you the incredible opportunity to watch Bolton play live and in-person without even having to take off your PJs.

The hotel, which is located just 500 yards from junction 6 on the M61,  also boasts a number of other features, including a glass atrium lobby and glass lifts.

And it has a sweeping staircase that leads you to what they describe as “an elegant brasserie and bar”.

It offers guests light meals, drinks and coffee as well as a menu for lunch and dinner.

But even if football is not your thing, the Middlebrook Retail Village is close by to keep you entertained.

And you are only a quarter of an hour’s walk away from 10-pin bowling, a cinema and a variety of shops. 

Bolton, who are managed by Ian Evatt, are currently pushing for promotion from League One.

They are third in the table, four points outside of the automatic spots and nine behind leaders Portsmouth.
