Staff were helpful & friendly. Room was small but sufficient for us as we just went back to sleep. I`m a coeliac but the 3 course meal was not gluten free but the waitress called out the chef to see what alternative could be arranged for me. Really impressed. Would go back again

Well situated, small rooms (as expected for central London). Restaurant flooded with bad smell of drains - off-putting, wouldn`t eat there. Noisy, even in quiet room.

Accommodation was good and the staff were friendly and helpful. However, they had problems with the heating. It was very cold, but they did provide us with a noisy fan heater.

Great base only 15 minutes from Euston Train station and the 10 minutes from Hotel to Theatre.Staff were very friendly and helpful giving us directions and looking up what bus route we needed to sight see.Breakfast was very good value and of a very high standard we thought and we thoroughly enjoyed it.Room was perfect, clean and everything we needed for our one night stay.We were allowed to leave our luggage after check out with them so we didn`t have to drag our cases aroundLondon sight seeing and we collected them before we headed back to the train station.We intend to go to the theatre again and we will definitely be booking this very nice hotel again and cannot praise it enough.

"It does what it says on the tin!"

Very nice hotel, clean, comfortable and very central for restaurants etc.... also not that far from Euston Station and the theatre we were going to. Close to Oxford Road and Tottenham Court Road and also the brilliant British Meseum.

"Poor evening meal"

In all our visits to London this was the worst hotel we have stayed in. The room and bed were very small and uncomfortable. Unfortunately the room also looked out onto a busy road and therefore did not sleep well. Also had an evening meal of fish and chips. Fish cooked from frozen and chips like warm. Not recommend

"Bloomsbury Hotel, Southampton Row."

Staff excellent, courteous, friendly and efficient. Ground floor of Hotel very nice. Floors above that are very tired looking. Badly in need of a repaint. Some depressing views when looking out of windows into .backyard area. No soundproofing whatsoever,constant noise throughout the night making sleep very difficult. . With regard to the room, bathroom and toilet very nice and clean however no fridge no Aircon or Heating controls in the room ., no WIFI. In all not what you would expect from a recommended London Hotel.

"Comfortable room"

We have stayed here before and it is good for a theatre break. Les Mis on Shaftesbury Avenue, an easy walk. Ate in China town before the show. My only criticism of the Hotel is £12 for breakfast, even for London, that is not justified. We will stay again.

Check in was really quick and the front Reception Staff were professional, warm and friendly, the room was really clean and the bed comfortable. I couldn`t fault it and we had a really good stay.

"Great hotel and great for location"

Stayed for two nights the hotel was clean, staff were friendly and helpful and it was in a great location. We stayed in a room on the front of the hotel it was a little noisy,but this isn`t a criticism, as it is on a main road and hustle and bustle of London through the night is what you would expect. I`m a light sleeper it woke me up but it wouldn`t stop me from staying in exactly the same room again. Would recommend it
