Walkway to west taken by page at hotel (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

towpath

'walkway' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'to west taken by page at hotel' is the wordplay.
'west' becomes 'w' (abbreviation).
'taken by' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'page' becomes 'p'.
'hotel' becomes 'h' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.).
'to'+'w'+'p'+'at'+'h'='TOWPATH'

(Other definitions for towpath that I've seen before include "Canal walk" , "Track once used to pull barges on canals" , "that runs along bank" , "canal feature" , "Track by waterway" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
