The Bloomsbury Hotel, London

16-22 Great Russell St, Bloomsbury, London WC1B 3NN, United Kingdom (show on map)

Expert reviews

CN Traveler review:

“The Bloomsbury is bringing the Grand Dame back to London. Even if you are not staying there, you have to make time for a cocktail or two at its fabulously designed Coral Room. But the location, in central-west London, walking distance to major sites and train lines that can get you anywhere in town, is unbeatable in this city.”

Wonderful oasis in the city.

Great location for exploring central London. The staff in all areas of the hotel were all absolutely lovely and very helpful.

There was a comfortable lounge opposite reception and as the weather was very chilly I'd have liked to have relaxed there with a book while having a brandy, but no drinks are permitted in the lounge. A small point only.

A beautiful hotel with every comfort one could want but priced on the high end.

Beautifully appointed room and bathroom, flawless linen. The staff are helpful, attentive and professional.

The coming and going of fellow guests at night, simply walking and talking in the corridors, opening and closing their doors is enough to wake one. The walls of the rooms and doors could have done with a lot more sound deadening.

Great spot for a London visit

Enjoyable stay.

We were upgraded to a Studio Suite which was very good.

We went to Coral Room both before and after the theatre. Before the theatre the staff were excellent and the atmosphere was very good. When we went back later, although bar is open late, by 10.15 we could not have coffee because “the machine has been turned off”. Waitress was ‘rough and ready’, bordering on surly. Rest of the staff in the hotel were very good indeed.

A little luxury

We were given a free upgrade upon arrival. The staff were the nicest and politest people you could wish to meet and as helpful as possible. In the evening, your bed is turned down, ready for when you wish to go to bed. Everywhere was spotlessly clean.

The room was a little dated with signs of where and tare. Some of the bathroom floor tiles were loose, and two were broken.

Simply a beautiful hotel…..

Beautifully decorated bedroom, immaculately clean & beautiful bedlinen. Staff very friendly and extremely attentive.

The location. Whilst ideal for where we were needed to be, it is not set in the best part of London which is a crying shame as this is a stunning hotel. Staff in the bar downstairs could have been more helpful. Service extremely slow.

Fabulous

The hotel is in an older, super cute, refurbished building that is clean and well kept. The staff were all warm and helpful. Breakfast was good with many choices. We loved the location, close to a tube station which made it easy to get around. The hotel is quiet. We would definitely stay again!

Need more electrical outlets.

Amazing Hotel in Central London

The hotel is amazing - great public areas - the coral room and the bloomsbury bar/club are great spaces to sit and drink a cocktail or two...the bedroom was large, spotless and comfortable - seeing as you are in central london it was a quiet nights sleep!

nothing to say - everything was great!

Been here on a number of occasions and will definitely be back.

The location is perfect for visiting London with a Tube station just across the road. The breakfast was excellent with proper freshly squeezed orange juice. The rooms, while a bit on the smaller side, was very comfortable. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

The ONLY drawback was the Leisure facilities- no pool, small gym.

Very nice hotel! excellent staff especially on reception; very clean and love the aircon

staff very friendly and engaging; the place is spotless, the air-con in the room was excellent; and i was very pleasantly surprised at the quality of room service menu.

The room i was given was fiarly small although it was acceptable. Shower could have been a better pressure. Slightly noisy in common stairway outside room or access where room was.

Very good

The location was terrific as we were attending a show at the Dominion theatre next door. The staff were very attentive. The bed was very comfortable.

The fact that the hotel have made a double lcharge on my credit card. I am awaiting a response from the hotel on what they propose to correct the error. Unfortunately it took some of the shine on what was otherwise a pleasant stay.

Fabulous staff, friendly and efficient, good food and restaurants and bars are delightful places to eat and drink

Property is excellent, sadly the surrounding area is a little scruffy, clearly not the fault of the hotel, but first impressions were affected, although soon put to the back of the minds thanks to the excellence of the staff and interior.
