The Newman feels like one of those London addresses that's a bit, if-you-know-you-know. Tucked into Fitzrovia's elegant streets, just moments from Soho, Mayfair and Oxford Circus, it sits in one of central London's most sophisticated neighbourhoods avoiding the tourist crowds. You could say, it's the kind of place people recommend with a smile and a "have you been yet?", making it an inspired setting for private dining, client entertaining and celebrations that deserve somewhere with a little more personality and an insider feel.
Design sits at the heart of the hotel, and every event space reflects its contemporary, understated aesthetic. Rather than grand ballrooms or traditional function suites, The Newman offers beautifully considered rooms where warm materials and clean architectural lines create an on-trend feel.
For classic private dining, Talland and Little Talland provide two spaces that can be booked individually or together. Talland seats up to 28 guests, while Little Talland is ideal for more intimate gatherings of up to 12, making them perfect for everything from anniversary dinners to executive meetings. When combined, the rooms also work brilliantly for standing receptions of up to 80 guests, allowing conversations to flow naturally between both spaces.
For something a little more exclusive, The Penthouse offers one of the hotel's most distinctive settings. Accommodating up to 15 guests for seated dining or 30 for drinks receptions, the rooftop space brings an added sense of occasion to client entertaining, celebration dinners and intimate events.
Larger occasions are equally well catered for. Gambit Bar accommodates around 100 guests for drinks receptions, networking evenings and launch events, while The Stage offers a semi-private corner for smaller groups of up to 15 wanting a lively atmosphere with a little separation from the crowd.
For those planning something on a grander scale, exclusive hire brings together Talland, Little Talland, Gambit Bar and The Stage into one seamless venue for up to 150 guests. The interconnected layout allows guests to move effortlessly between dining rooms and social spaces, creating an event that feels dynamic rather than confined.
