Bloomsbury is a wonderful area of London. Very neighborhood y. The Bedford Hotel is ideally located, close to Russell Square Tube and lots of restaurants fancy and not. My room was quiet but overlooked the busy street which was fun to watch. I had a wonder big tub with plenty of hot water. The room was cleaned everyday and all the staff I encountered were friendly and greeted me warmly.

We stayed for one night for a theatre trip. I did book standard room but it was very very basic. No information about the hotel in the room. The room was also very hot even with the windows open. The dining area was lovely and the breakfast nice. Friendly staff but not very knowledgeable. I do feel it was over priced for what it was. I probably wouldn’t stay again.

Great location for a short-stay traveller
You get what you pay for - my room was quite small with a single (one twin) bed. This is not a complaint, it was exactly what I needed. Location is good - close to Euston station and to tube stations on both the Elizabeth and Jubilee lines (both of which go to Heathrow). There is a little green space around and a not-too-distant walk (20 minutes) to Trafalgar Square, St. James Park, and Buckingham Palace. Tower Bridge and the Thames is somewhat further. Lots of places to eat nearby because it's close to the West End theatres.

Hotel is old. There is no air flow and the room was very stuffy and muggy. Room didn’t feel clean, found various hairs everywhere. Somewhat central. Bed was comfortable, sheets and pillows were not. Only one towel provided for 2 people. Nowhere to hang hand towel. Toilet paper dispenser broke right away. Garbage can fell over every time you tried to open it. Outside noise was loud which proved annoying given the need to have a window open 24/7. Overall a very average 3 star hotel, possibly even 2. Not worth the money.
