The hotel was in a central location, and we felt very welcome. The room was very comfortable, clean and spacious. We enjoyed reading by the fireplace on the first floor. It was in a great location and public transport very closeby.

Incredible location, wonderful staff—every single employee we encountered seemed to love his/her job and seemed genuinely interested in making our stay as perfect as possible. One suggestion: get an a la carte menu for the breakfast, not everyone wants the complete meal and shouldn’t have to pay for it.

This was our second stay at The Bloomsbury. It was AMAZING, again! The staff was friendly and helpful, and even gave us complimentary drink coupons to the Bloomsbury Club, which was relaxing! The room was comfortable and very clean! Breakfast was amazing as usual! We love the freshly pressed apple juice, and freshly squeezed orange and grapefruit juices! Twice, we've ended our UK/European trip this way, and we'll continue to do so! Five stars!

Beautiful hotel and 10/10 staff, made our wedding weekend very special. No upgrades, but put some thoughtful touches in our room to help us celebrate, which was so appreciated. Expensive hotel in central so it was definitely a treat for us, but would definitely recommend to anyone else looking for a special stay in London. Thank you again!

Outstanding and friendly staff everywhere. Special thanks to Antonio at the Door and Richard in Engineering. Exceeded my expectations in every way. Great value, and I have spent many weeks in London. I used amenities, fitness center, bar and restaurant. I really felt like a welcome guest here. One of the best locations in London.
