New Road Hotel is a stylish 80-bedroom boutique hotel set to open shortly in East London.
New Road Hotel will be housed in a former textile factory in Whitechapel, so expect the ‘industrial look’ with exposed brickwork and open-plan public areas.
The building is an old textile factory, formerly known as Service House. It was a garments factory up until the turn of the millennium.
Since its closure in 2000 the building has remained empty.
The bedrooms will also feature exposed brickwork as well as the building’s original large windows.
Each bedroom will be furnished with a 49” flatscreen television, a hypnos bed, a rainfall shower, a ‘handy’ mobile phone and air conditioning.
The hotel will have two feature bedrooms. The Loft - complete with its own private rooftop hot tub and The Eco Shed - offering ‘sustainability without compromising on comfort’.
Marco Pierre White will launch a Mr White’s English Chophouse restaurant in New Road Hotel. The Chophouse will also be open for breakfast.
New Road Hotel will have two dedicated meeting rooms both with natural daylight and equipped with latest meeting technology including free wi-fi.
New Road Hotel is located in New Road, a three-minute walk from Whitechapel tube station and close to The Royal London Hospital. The hotel has good access to London City Airport, Canary Wharf, Stratford Olympic Park and ExCeL.
