Fulham aim to offer the highest-end, most elite corporate facility in football.

Craven Cottage's Riverside Stand opened on Saturday before Fulham 's loss against Everton .

The project has cost significantly more than its initial pricing of 100 m.

Hospitality customers will be charged 3,000 to 20,000 a season over nine tiers with individual match packages on sale.

The Riverside looked glorious on a late-spring day though the Cottage can be one of football’s chilliest settings when wintry winds whip from the river.

A grand piano is ordered for the third -tier Sky Deck to make it resemble the ballroom of the Titanic in a facility designed by a Parisian outfit whose trade is high-end restaurants and hotels.
