Malmaison Newcastle unveils bold new rooms

A boutique hotel has completed a major refurbishment to its rooms and suites.

Malmaison Newcastle has invested £3 million in a full redesign of all 122 bedrooms across seven floors, introducing a vibrant, contemporary take on its signature boutique style. 

Fourteen suites on the seventh floor, named after ships reflecting the city’s shipbuilding history, offer views of the River Tyne and the Millennium and Tyne Bridges.

The refurbishment draws on Newcastle’s industrial heritage and creative culture, with corridor designs nodding to the Tyne Bridge and subtle references to magpie feathers. 

Bedrooms feature retro pop art-inspired colour schemes from the 1960s and 1970s, while wall coverings incorporate patterns influenced by 1990s and 2000s music and fashion, creating bold, immersive spaces.

Chris Lyall, cluster general manager at Malmaison Newcastle, said: “The £3 million refurbishment investment represents our continued commitment to evolving the Malmaison experience. 

“The new rooms and suites elevate the guest experience but also contribute to the continued vibrancy of the Quayside ensuring Malmaison Newcastle remains one of the city’s leading boutique destinations for both business and leisure guests.”

Housed in a Grade II-listed former Co-Operative Society warehouse on the Quayside, the hotel remains a top destination for city breaks and business stays, conveniently located near landmarks including the Gateshead Millennium Bridge, Glasshouse International Centre for Music and the Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art.

Malmaison Newcastle also offers its first-floor Chez Mal Brasserie and Bar, serving modern British cuisine with a French twist, with seasonal dishes curated by chef director John Woodward and a standout wine and cocktail menu.
