New World Hospitality (NWH) was founded in 1995, with the sole purpose of investing and creating hospitality concepts that harness the personality of the people behind them whilst having a conscious and sustainable approach from inception to creation and delivery.

NWH was established with its own brand, myhotels located in Bloomsbury (1997), Chelsea (2002) and Brighton (2008) and also developed a Travelodge (Emirates Stadium) as well as a plethora of concessions (Central Working, Tanya's, The Chilli Pickle etc.)
