Furnival Road heads north towards the new section of the ring road while on its left, Victoria Station Road heads parallel but uphill to the Holiday Inn, for which it is now basically a private drive. The Holiday Inn indeed used to be the hotel alongside Royal Victoria Station – there is still a railway line but it hasn't seen a passenger rail service for many, many years.
