Stayed there recently on 5 day sightseeing trip. Booked through air miles so paid less than normal. Hotel is very handy for several tube stations within 10 min walk. Helps to download tube app to allow you to choose which station to depart from for main sightseeing for the day. Also handy for direct transfer from Heathrow on Picadilly line.... More

Good location for the British Museum, but maybe a long walk for some to the west end or theatre land. Still, the tube is close by. Rooms and bathroom fairly small but ok, and will need refurbishing shortly. Sound proofing to walls in adjacent bedrooms poorer than would be expected from a top class hotel - just like its sister...

We stayed here for a short theatre break. Can't fault the location- 2 ins to the tube and 10mins into covent garden/west end. The accommodation was you would expect from a holiday inn- basic but fine for a crash pad. We actually complained that some of the lights weren't working and it turned out there were just loads of switches... More

If central London is you choice, you can't beat the location, esepically is you intend to walk around or take short taxi trips to visit the sites. Arriving at St. Pancreas or Kings Cross, this hotel is at most only a 10 miunte walk. Similarly, Oxford Road or Covent Gardens is about the same distance away. Even Buckingham Palace is... More

Stayed here in January for 1 night. Lovely room with nice decor and soft bed. Nice bathroom and shower. Staff incredibly helpful. Gave us lots of advice on the quickest way to get to places by foot. Breakfast was also lovely with a very good range. Will definately stay again. More

The Bloomsbury Holiday Inn is about 10 minutes walk from Kings Cross, and 10 minutes from the West End. Perfect location to explore London. It's a typical current look Holiday Inn hotel, with the standard clean crisp bathrooms. Public areas are bright and welcoming, and swallow large numbers of people easily. Only negative was the shower - no water pressure!!! More

Stayed here for 2 nights on a business trip. The location can't be faulted - right across the road from the tube station with a pub and a shopping centre round the corner. The room was a double and was a bit on the small side but not bad for a central london hotel. The lobby looks great but the... More

We have been staying here for many years. Having stayed in hotels all over the world this must speak volumes. Convenient for rail,tube, eateries, British Museum, bus and shops and very central. Staff and management very helpful, nothing is too much trouble. Rooms of a high standard for the situation and price. More

This was an unpleasant surprise churned up by lastminute's 'secret' hotel sweepstake (which I would not use again, by the way). This felt nothing like a 4* hotel. It has the appearance of a neglected office block from the outside with little else of any style or originality inside. The room was tiny. At least the empty mini-bar found a... More
