Best Western phishing email

Hi
i hope this is the right place for my query. I’ve just received an email from reception@woodlandsdundee.co.uk which is a Best Western hotel. The email is very obviously a scam purporting to be from DVLA telling me my payment failed and click this link to make it right. I haven’t by the way. The email says that it has been sent to undisclosed recipients and that it is from a mailing list.
i have used the feedback form on the Best Western website to inform them. Has anybody else received this? Anything else I should do or just park it until I hear back?
