Breakfast is always a more than exceptional experience! A very special and well worth mentioning two fold over how wonderful and lively they all are. Warm and charming to a T! Location is always a must when staying near all the sites and sounds of London. This is my 2nd visit here. I plan on returning again and again with all manner of glee and happily made memories that make it all the more reason to choose a stay here at the one and only Bloomsbury Hotel!

- Accounting mess up, which some staff didn’t even understand. And hidden charges weren’t properly communicated.
- climate control is not really controllable, it gets too cold in the whole hotel, and when I turn on the heating it goes straight to my head while the rest of tge room is still cold.
- Breakfast is a total shambles, although they use the best ingredients and the staff are doing their best, but it takes ages to get services in a place poses as 5 star, which mean I cannot even get my own coffee.
- It’s apparent that the hotel is cutting cost on the expense of customers, they use soften water in the bathroom, which makes everything slippery and wates too much time and water, and the AC, and TV switches off by themselves!

The room was cosy and comfortable, with perfectly crisp white bed linen, and I really enjoyed the room service breakfast. The only minor issue with the room was the bathroom layout — the toilet is positioned right behind the door, which is rather inconvenient.
First, it was surprisingly difficult to get in touch with the hotel over the weekend. I was dealing with unexpected travel disruptions and really needed to contact the team, so the lack of communication was quite frustrating.
Another disappointment was that my birthday fell during my stay, and it went completely unnoticed by the hotel staff. Not a single word or birthday wish. I’m not someone who likes to ask for special attention, but in my experience, even four-star hotels have offered a small gesture to mark the occasion. I honestly expected a little more thoughtfulness from a five-star hotel.

Poor
The location is great for key sites in Central London
Extremely noisy bashing doors and disrespectful people shouting in corridors
Freezing cold shower at 9 am on a Sunday morning not what you expect.
Air-conditioning running 3 to 4 degrees colder than setting
Breakfast was a complete joke.Not enough staff, the ones on duty couldn't have worked harder just too busy. Had to track staff down to order food. The so called hot breakfast buffet was terrible stone cold mushrooms and hash brown.

Very Good
Really friendly and helpful and kind staff. Absolutely exceptional.
Very good location.
Our room was quiet.
We had a bit of bad luck with our room (no. 509). We had booked a kingsize standard-room for six nights. It was quite expensive (even for London) and we have been a bit disappointed - certainly not the best room in the hotel.
Staff was very friendly, but again some bad luck in the breakfast room. No warm welcome there, so we cancelled our hotel breakfast for the rest of our stay.

Pleasant
Great atmosphere, feels personal and comfortable
Room quality varies massively. Some studios are amazing, other are very mediocre. Bit of a lottery to hat you get.

The staff are so accommodating!!
The rooms are beautiful and the overall atmosphere top notch.
We found the rooms a bit dark, so having an extra floor lamp behind the sitting chair in the room would be ideal especially at night once the curtains are closed.

Ambiance and convenience. Staff was excellent!
My room was a bit awkward. It was difficult to maneuver room service tray in and out the door. I dare you to try. And room food was not as good as I'd hoped.

We loved The Dalloway Terrace Restaurant and friendly staff. Excellent communication with the hotel staff prior to arrival. We were gifted some sweets and some champagne on arrival for our 40th wedding anniversary. A much appreciated treat
The high price reflects the great location .
The room was smaller than expected and the view of the of the theater back wall was disappointing. I wondered if I got a less desirable room because I did not book directly with the hotel?
The dark alley (we arrived at night) was a bit off putting and the sign that said Bloomsbury Hotel was not lit so we were a bit uncomfortable as we walked the 100 feet to the side entrance.
Food prices are sky high in London so be prepared for sticker shock.
