I was born in London well over seventy years ago but have lived in North America for 44 years. I return to the city every few years and have generally been disappointed at the low standards of hotel keeping in relation to the price. The Bloomsbury was outstandingly good, and good value. Check-in was easy after booking on the excellent... more

I am currently in one of the two rooms in the return beside the lift on the 7th floor. There is no noise from that but the floor of the room above creaks more than any I have heard in all my years of staying in hotels. The people last night didn't move around a lot but every move they... more

It is the small things set hotels apart - hot towels on arrival after a busy tube journey, a welcoming opened door and my favourite the heated bathroom floor. Turned out the door and within 5 mins I was looking at Egyptian mummies in the British Museum. Another small walk I was in Covent Garden. Perfect central location and will... more

It was my husband's 50th and he didn't want to go abroad just for a few days so we decided on London. We wanted to go and see We Will Rock You and be pretty central in London. The Bloomsbury was just round the corner from the Dominion Theatre so I booked it on line directly with the Hotel. They... more

My partner and I stayed at the Bloomsbury Hotel for 4 nights. The service upon arrival was very efficient, and we was given af room on the 2nd floor. The room was facing a wall, but that didn't bother us. The room was not very huge, but we had space enough for everything. The bathroom was very nice with a... more

The Bloomsbury Hotel is a lovely hotel with a great location. We were able to walk everywhere and if we needed to take the tube, the Tottenham Court Road station was around the corner. It is close to many great restaurants, coffee shops, theatres, and shopping. The room was nice, thankfully we had a view of the street. The alternative... more
