We had a lovely time staying at the Bloomsbury. Centrally located near to Tottenham Court tube station and the British Museum. The staff were fabulous, helpful and always cheerful. We dinned in the Dalloway Terrace restaurant for an evening meal and Afternoon Tea. Both times the food was excellent. Our room was on the 7th floor and was clean, quiet and comfortable. We enjoyed spending time in the lounge to relax after busy days sightseeing. Will definitely stay here again.

The staff simply couldn't do enough to help us; they were pleasant, kind, helpful and well presented. A staff member in the Coral Room took us downstairs to the Bloomsbury Bar to see if she could get us a table. All the front of house staff were excellent. It made the entire stay one of the best hotel experiences we've ever had, literally anywhere in the world. The room itself we stayed in on the second floor was a delight. In the evening we even obtained resupplies from the room night service. We slept like a dream during the one night of our stay as the noise from outside the hotel is almost none existent, surprising considering you are sixty Street.seconds walk from Tottenham Court Road and Oxford. All in all this is an outstanding hotel, with superb staff that comes highly recommended.

had a truly wonderful stay at The Bloomsbury Hotel. The room was absolutely beautiful—elegantly designed and incredibly comfortable, Every detail felt thoughtful and luxurious. What really made the stay unforgettable, though, was the customer service. Every member of staff was warm, attentive, and genuinely caring, going out of their way to make me feel welcome and looked after.

Staff from the restaurant/bar felt the need to loudly tip out all the glass several times through the night. Very poor night sleep as a result. They could have just done it once or saved it until morning. Very inconsiderate.
