Crystalbrook Kingsley
Crystalbrook Kingsley, located in Newcastle, is a five-star luxury hotel that masterfully combines historical architecture with modern sophistication. Situated in the former Council Administration Centre, a 1977 brutalist building known as the Roundhouse, the structure has been transformed into a 130-room hotel while retaining its architectural heritage. Designed by EJE Architecture and Suede Interior Design, the interiors soften the building’s original brutalist elements with undulating forms and warm hues that pay homage to Newcastle’s industrial history.
The design thoughtfully integrates the heritage significance of the building, featuring elements like canary bird motifs as a nod to the city’s mining history and using locally crafted furnishings to create a sense of place. The hotel’s rooftop space includes the Roundhouse Restaurant and Romberg's Bar, offering panoramic views of Newcastle’s skyline and waterfront, making it a premier destination for dining and relaxation.
Crystalbrook Kingsley is also committed to sustainability, reflected in the use of reclaimed materials throughout the hotel and its EarthCheck certification for maintaining high environmental standards. This thoughtful blend of heritage preservation, luxury design, and eco-conscious practices makes Crystalbrook Kingsley a standout among Newcastle's hospitality offerings.
