Motel One Newcastle Is Officially Open

Motel One Newcastle is now officially open, offering high quality city centre designer accommodation from just £59 per night!
On Tuesday 29th December Motel One opened the doors of its first hotel in Newcastle, providing visitors to the city with all the benefits of a budget design hotel at an affordable price. The new 222 room hotel is located in the historical city centre near the central station supplying visitors with fantastic transport links. With a unique mix of tradition, industrialisation and modern style and rooms starting from just £59 per night, Motel One Newcastle is a great choice for leisure and business trips.
Travellers visiting for the city’s attractions will find the Theatre Royal, Grey’s Monument, the River Tyne and the beautiful Quayside all within close proximity to Motel One Newcastle. Sports fans can visit nearby St James’ Park and music lovers can enjoy concerts at the Sage Gateshead Hall, both within walking distance of the hotel.
To give customers a unique travel experience, each Motel One takes design influences from its city’s local history and culture. During construction great care was taken to preserve some of the old brick walls to retain the original building’s charm. Motel One Newcastle has taken its design inspiration from old industrial charm blended with stylish modernism. This is showcased by the carefully conserved old brick walls contrasting beautifully with sparkling chandeliers and the reception’s black and white stripes of Newcastle United Football Club.
The hotel’s One Lounge breakfast area décor has been inspired by the iconic seven bridges over the Tyne. In the bar the decor is influenced by Robert Stephenson’s invention, the steam train Rocket. Signposts similar to those found within Newcastle city centre are found in the lounge, creating a real sense of identity between the city and the hotel. Comfy Italian leather furniture provides the perfect place to relax with a special selection of single malt or gin and tonic after a busy day in the city.
Rooms located in the carefully preserved and renovated historical part of the building showcase a modern style blended with velvet curtains and beautifully detailed wallpaper, perfectly combining the old and the new. Rooms in the newly built section of the hotel are designed in the contemporary Motel One style. All rooms guarantee sweet dreams with 100% Egyptian cotton bed linen. The bathrooms are all elegantly fitted with granite and glass Dornbracht washbasin fittings, as well as a monsoon rain shower. Complemented with exclusive Artemide Tolomeo lighting and LOEWE flat screen TV, each room provides a peaceful escape from the city outside. Clever functional design ensures there is plenty of storage space.
With free Wi-Fi access throughout the hotel and Ipads available from the One Lounge, Motel One Newcastle is ideally situated for business travellers in the city and those looking to stay well connected on their travels.
