  • Excellent hotel, very warm welcome, spotlessly clean everywhere and very helpful and friendly staff. We had a premium room which was a good size over looking Bloomsbury Street. The room was very clean, the bed comfortable and all quiet at night. We had an evening meal in the restaurant which was delicious and hopefully we will be going again so we can explore the menu more. Breakfast was a very nice buffet with one or two dishes off the menu brought to the table by the waiter. Good strength coffee and plenty of it was served in a large cafetiere.

  • "The warmest hotel reception I've experienced in years"

  • My wife and I stayed at this hotel August 23-25 and August 28-29 this summer. It was our second stay at this hotel within the last 4 years. We were welcomed super warmly and immediately felt at home. The staff at the reception was extremely professional, friendly and helpful. I have no words to describe how they all, but the young lady by the name of Atifa in particular, were ready to go out of their way to make our time at the hotel a happy time. Thank you Atifa, thanks to your colleagues. Other than that the room was comfortable, the restaurant pleasant and providing good food and great, creative drinks. We loved the location, close to the Tottenham Court metro station and Elizabeth Line to Heathrow airport, within walking distance to the British Museum and many other places of interest. My only complaint would be that the 29 BPound price for the buffet breakfast is steep, quite a bit more than we've found elsewhere in Europe at comparable quality hotels. Although yes, they do provide some a la carte options.

    • Dear andrzejo1885, It is heartening to learn that you and your wife had such a memorable experience during your stay with us. Your warm words about our reception team, and particularly Atifa, are indeed encouraging. We strive to offer our guests a homely and comfortable environment, and it brings us immense joy to know that we were successful in our efforts. We are glad to know that you appreciated our convenient location in the heart of London. Indeed, our proximity to Tottenham Court Road station makes it easier for our guests to explore the city and its various attractions. As you mentioned, the academic charm of Bloomsbury, along with its rich literary history, adds to the overall appeal of our location. The British Museum, Covent Garden, Soho, and Fitzrovia are just a few of the attractions that our guests can easily access on foot from our hotel. Your feedback regarding the cost of our buffet breakfast has been noted. We continually strive to offer top-quality food and service, and we believe our pricing reflects this commitment. However, we understand that value for money is important to our guests and we will continue to review our pricing in line with our desire to offer the best possible experience. Once again, thank you for choosing us for your stay in London. We appreciate your feedback and look forward to welcoming you back to our hotel in the near future. Best Regards, Bhavish Dhan Hoolash Team Leader

    • Dear Katherine, It's such a pleasure to read your encouraging comments about your recent stay at our hotel. Your satisfaction with the service, accommodation, and our helpful concierge are all very heartening to hear. It's particularly delightful to know that you found our breakfast to be a good deal - we always strive to provide a variety of options to kick start our guest's day. Our location is indeed a prime feature of our hotel, set amidst the charm and rich literary history of Bloomsbury, central London. Not only are there numerous shopping and dining options in the vicinity, but we are also fortunate to be a stone's throw away from some of London's most vibrant areas like Covent Garden, Soho, and Fitzrovia. We are glad to hear that you had a nice experience, and we hope to continue providing exceptional service during any future visits you may have with us. Warm Regards, Fabiana Polito Front of House Manager

  • I vacationed to London as a first vacation in over a decade. I found the facilities top notch, the staff extremely professional AND friendly, and the location extremely convenient. Having stayed in hotels marketed as top tier, this hotel exceeded my expectations greatly. I would not hesitate to rebook another stay when in London!

  • I've been staying for 4 nights and it couldn't be any better. Location is very good, close to British Museum, in a quiet nice area, some minutes away from the subway, our room was quite big (we has a premium room), nice breakfast and, above all, I have to mention the staff. I would like to be able to name them all, to which I truely thank, but my special mention is for Arantxa from the reception and Alexandra from the restaurant. I would definitely come back!
