Lovely garden, friendly, clean hotel Bloomsbury

The garden is lovely, a real bonus for a city hotel. The staff are friendly and helpful. Good choice at breakfast. The single room was very small but had a nice window and was very clean with nice sheets and the much appreciated bath.

We were very happy with our stay - 5 nights March 7-12, 2025. The room was very comfortable and immaculately clean. Although we faced the street, the traffic noise didn't bother us at night. There are several hospitals nearby, so quite a few sirens. If you're noise sensitive, you might prefer a room facing the courtyard. The front desk and housekeeping staff were excellent and very attentive. However, we didn't find the same level of friendliness at the restaurant and found them a bit rude. Also, we don't recommend the breakfast buffet. For the price there are better options in the neighbourhood. Overall, a great experience. We would definitely stay again on our next trip to London.

Great hotel

Excellent stay, very good breakfast. Terrific location between Russell Square and Holborn tube stations and across from a bus stop for going south and a block from another for going north. All I’d change is the music at breakfast. Such a nice restaurant should play either good music or none.

Good stay

Excellent situation near Russell Square. The staff were helpful and friendly. We chose a room facing the garden. It was quiet and spotlessly clean. The complimentary tea bags were weak. We had to buy some. We had breakfast at café Tropea in Russell Sqare. Worth a visit. The food was amazingly good.
