UCL final: Know all about the swanky hotel Real Madrid are staying in at Paris!

Real Madrid will spare no expense in their bid to win another Champions League crown this weekend as they prepare to stay in an opulent £2,150-a-night hotel on the edge of Paris.

Carlo Ancelotti's team have booked out the five-star Auberge du Jeu de Paume in Chantilly as they play Liverpool at the Stade de France on Saturday evening.

The hotel boasts 92 luxurious suites, two award-winning restaurants, picturesque gardens, a spa including Turkish bath and fully-equipped gymnasium to keep the players in peak condition for the final.

And there's good news for Gareth Bale, too, because next door is an 18-hole golf course at the prestigious Club du Lys.

Spanish newspapers have reported that Real will have exclusive use of the resort and all its facilities ahead of the final, as they aim to win a record 14th Champions League title.

Importantly, the hotel is located just a 40-minute drive away from the stadium and is where the England team were based during the 2016 European Championship.

Marca report that president Florentino Perez, manager Ancelotti, the playing squad and club staff will arrive in the French capital on Thursday afternoon.

They plan to train near the resort on the Friday morning and will hold all pre-match team talks there before taking on Jurgen Klopp's side in the eagerly-anticipated final on Saturday.

Chantilly is also home to a world famous racecourse, a horse training centre and hosts the Conde museum, which has the second most important collection of art in Paris after the Louvre.

The hotel's website says: 'Spread over 7,800 hectares, the Domaine de Chantilly is peppered with historical monuments, prestigious sporting venues and natural landscapes, each proudly parading an illustrious history, imposing architecture and opulent splendour.'

For dinner, the travelling party will have the choice of the gourmet, Michelin-starred La Table du Connetable, which opens out on the landscaped lawns and gardens of the Chateau de Chantilly.

A six-course set menu consisting of two starters, two main courses, cheese and dessert is offered at £137. Current dishes on the menu include line-caught turbot with samphire, seaweed and puffed potato or Roscoff's pigeon.

There is also the Jardin d'Hiver restaurant whose menu currently features veal rump and wild skate.

Having emphatically won LaLiga this season, Ancelotti's side will be aiming to conquer Europe yet again, having last lifted the trophy in 2018 when they defeated Liverpool 3-1 in Kyiv.

That was the third of a hat-trick of Champions League wins under former manager Zinedine Zidane, taking their overall tally to 13 in the competition.

It remains to be seen whether Wales star Bale, 32, makes the Real squad for the final. He has played just seven minutes in Europe so far this season and hasn't taken the field since a 2-0 win over Getafe on April 9.

Bale will also have one eye on Wales's crucial World Cup play-off against either Scotland or Ukraine coming up on June 5.

Klopp will have to lift his Liverpool team following the disappointment of missing out on the Premier League title to Manchester City on Sunday, a result which shattered their Quadruple ambitions.

They can win the European Cup for the seventh time, completing a cup treble after they won the FA Cup and Carabao Cup earlier in the season.
