The Newman
On a quiet stretch of Newman Street, a few steps north of Oxford Street, The Newman feels like it has always belonged to Fitzrovia. This is a hotel built around a neighbourhood; around the writers, artists and eccentrics who once filled its streets, and the locals who still do. The perfect place to see central London through a slower lens.

Main Areas
At The Newman, the ground floor feels like the neighbourhood’s front room. Brasserie Angelica sits at its heart, with tables spilling onto the street, while Art Deco interiors by Lind + Almond nod to Fitzrovia’s bohemian past. Upstairs, the Nordic-inspired wellness floor offers a hydrotherapy pool, salt room, sauna and fitness space, with Pilates and sound baths on the side. Downstairs, Fitzrovia hums along. Up here, you’d hardly know it.
Rooms
Eighty-one rooms, suites and apartments, each one dressed in soft, neutral tones that let the details speak. Monochrome bathroom tiles echo the patterned facade of the Langham Court Hotel just down the road, and every room comes with its own small library of books. Some open onto narrow balconies over the street below. This is a hotel for lazy mornings: pick a book from the shelf, order coffee, and let Fitzrovia wake up without you.
Gambit Bar
Down a level, Gambit Bar is where Fitzrovia’s old spirit comes out to play. Part traditional London pub, part early twentieth-century speakeasy, it takes its cues from the Vorticists, mystics and dandies who once held court in the area. The room is low-lit and intimate, built for one more drink than you planned. Evenings bring in-house DJs and, true to the name, regular chess nights. Come for a nightcap, stay for a game.
