Hotel Gotham has announced that its newest site in Newcastle is set to open in September across two phases.
The first phase will see the launch of the former fire station with 57 bedrooms, including six suites.
Guests can expect exclusive access to Club Brass, emperor beds with Egyptian cotton bed linen, marble monsoon showers and in-room roll-top baths. The hotel will also boast a new restaurant and bar named ‘Siren’ and ‘Fire’.
In early 2026, phase two is set to unveil the adjoining police station with a further 30 rooms, including Gotham Sanctum Suites.
A glazed corridor will connect the two buildings, which will also include an event space within the former Court Rooms that can be used to host weddings, soirées and celebrations for up to 120 guests.
At the heart of the new venue lies Club Brass, Hotel Gotham’s private members’ club hidden behind a discreet door and spread across two floors.
Chris Thompson, general manager at Hotel Gotham, said: “There’s nothing like this in the North East. Gotham is where heritage meets hedonism. Newcastle is a city full of energy and personality and we feel this new space really reflects that. We’ve worked hard to honour the history of the buildings while creating something fresh and memorable.
“Whether people are staying with us, dining at Siren or enjoying a drink at Fire, we want them to feel like they’re part of something special from the moment they walk through the door. Every corridor, every cocktail and every corner tells a story – and this one belongs to Newcastle.”
