Our inaugural programme is focused on reflecting the core components of our ethos through transforming the hotel into a multidisciplinary art and culture centre. Visitors can enjoy a comprehensive experience with examples of fine art through exhibitions, performances, screenings that are accompanied by guided tours, panel discussions and other frameworks designed to educate and encourage, both on site and throughout London.

At Middle Eight, we are motivated to find new ways of celebrating our heritage, which is rooted in the creative arts. We are at the nexus of this London scene; with resources, access and knowledge to share with our guests. We see Middle Eight as a discerning curator, a passionate educator, a source of inspiration, and a go-to destination for celebrating creative expression at the epicentre of the city’s cultural landscape.

Visitors enjoy a comprehensive experience of multidisciplinary art practice through rotating exhibitions, performance showcases, residencies and more...accompanied by guided tours, group discussions and other frameworks designed to educate and encourage, both on site and throughout London.

Whether young and emerging, or internationally revered, Middle Eight aligns with artists, musicians, choreographers and composers who reflect the zeitgeist of the  contemporary discourse and represent progressive ideals and innovative spirit.

Kicking off our project is the installation of our first feature, a ‘biophilia’ display in the lobby by Frankie Boyle. Specialising in immersive design with a focus on light and colour theory, Frankie creates transformative installations that evoke deep emotional connections.

We have been inspired by the balance between nature and manmade, channelled through creative expression. Discover this as you move through the hotel with artworks displayed from the bar up to the balcony.

Join us for ‘Urban Oasis’, where we reflect on ecologies, symbiosis and sustainability through the power of creative expression
