Belligenheden

Many London Hotels are a bit run down. Not so The Bloomsburry Hotel. It's a very nice and new Hotel with very stylish interiour. I love the design and the materials used throughout the hotel are of very high quality. When checking in one gets a refreshing towel at reception and a bottle of water when checking out - small details make it - brilliant! I would stay there any time! This has gone up to my most favourite London Hotels.

The only thing I found annoying is that at night the Hotel door is closed. A doorbell needs to be ringed to call the night guard to open the door. I can understand that at night they don't want strangers walking into the lobby, but still, waiting outside for a guy to show up and opening the door is not a welcoming attitude. The solution is simple, the door should be unlocked by the key card.

Location. Having free wi-fi, though it stopped working on the last day. The staff was nice and eager to please.The heated floor of the bathroom.

All the hotel is very dark, very depressing and I didn't quite like the decoration.I was given a room on the top floor, on the loft with two small windows which I had a hard time to open and I wasn't able to see the outside from my room, very claustrophobic. The room was also very hot and the ac didn't work well. Bathroom very small. Breakfast expensive for what you get, poor selection ,though the quality of the food was good.. The bed wasn't comfortable and nor were the linens. Only a few TV channels, all English.

Staff were friendly. Hotel bar was open late also provided bar snacks. Stayed here to go to a show, very good location close to the theaters and nightlife.

In general the staff were very polite and helpful. Very nice relaxed atmosphere ideal for the theatre.

Unfortuneately one of the staff at breakfast needed furter training. When arrived at the table it had been used and she took a serviette and pushed the crumbs from the table onto the floor. The coffee was cold and when asked for hot water she first brought cold water in a glass then when challenged brought boiling water in a glass not a jug. After requesting a fresh pot of coffee not to strong, it was severed very strong and my wife and I could not drink it. Finally when she removed the plates for the fruit she moved them on to the adjacent training. We were not asked for sauces etc when served our cooked breakfast. Service you do not expect from this class of Hotel. I must stress however the other staff were very competent and helpful.

As we walked in the staff were attentive and efficient. We had our room upgraded, I'm not sure if this was because I'd mentioned that the trip was a birthday surprise for my husband before on Booking.com or for another reason. There was a pleasant aroma about the hotel - floating candles everywhere. Ther room was plush with all mod cons. WiFi was complimentary, there was an expresso machine, bottled water and fluffy robes. It was an excellent location for seeing a show and visiting Soho or Covent Garden. It was situated in a quiet street with an underground ncp car part opposite for parking. As we checked out they even gave us complimentary bottled water for 'on the road'. Shall definately return.

That we couldn't stay longer!

We really enjoyed our stay at the Bloomsbury. The hotel was clean and fresh decor, luxury! The staff were friendly and welcoming. We stayed to go to the theatre, the lcation was perfect, close to all the central areas or tube. The towels and toiletries were repleanished in the evening whilst we were out, so we had fresh things to use in the morning. We didnt eat at the hotel, but I would have liked to. Would definately return!

The staff inn the restaurant were very well trained ,attentive without being invasive The location was brilliant for the theatre and covent garden also Euston Station

I would not recommend this hotel to a long term stayers, as the room was first quite tidy and nice, but after a few days the glasses, cups and spoons were left unwashed and towels/beddings not changed. In addition to that, and above all, the staffs, especially ones at the reception were very snobbish and not attentive at all. When we called to ask some questions from our room, they sounded very cool and as if they didn't want to take the trouble of serving. (Maybe because it was in the evening) The location is nice, but there must be better hotel in this area with better service.

Staff were amazing, friendly, courteous and helpful. I arrived at the hotel early, was told that the hotel had full occupancy the previous night and the room assigned to me, was still occupied,but a very nice room. However, after waiting an hour and a half, the concierge saw that I was yawning and went to check if my room was ready. After a short while, he came back to say that they had assigned me another room, gave me a room card and sent my luggage upstairs. This room being on the 2nd floor was very noisy. Bedrooms are well appointed, next morning, I asked for my room to be changed, which was on the 4th floor,much quieter, but smaller definitely not a superior double room, no place for luggage. The ambience of the hotel, and friendly staff made up for what could have been an unpleasant stay.

The noise. Walls are too thin and street noise on side of hotel.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The situation was fantastic. The breakfast of which we only had one, in our room, was delicious. Fresh produce, well cooked.

The cost of breakfast was astounding. I travelled with my 14 year old daughter and the thought of paying £21 for her breakfast was appalling. If a cooked breakfast had been between £10 and £15 depending on what was ordered I may have thought about it. It would appeal much more if things were seperated into courses and priced accordingly. The room was v. hot. The airconditioning worked but not enough. There was a buzzing from something in a cupboard next door. It took us quite a while to find because it was covered in scaffolding.
