I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were beautiful, spacious, and always immaculately clean. However, the room was a bit too warm even with the air conditioning set to 17 degrees. The service provided by Estelita and her attentive staff was exceptional, making my father-in-law's 80th birthday celebrations truly special. The hotel's central location near Oxford Street, Covent Garden, and Soho was perfect for exploring London's attractions. The dining experience, although slow and overpriced, was saved by the use of many local products.

My stay at this hotel was fantastic! The room was very comfortable and nicely furnished, making it perfect for our trip. Everything was clean with a lovely fresh smell, but the bed was a bit small. The service was top-notch, with Maria, Victor, and Dimitar always taking great care of us. The location was ideal, close to everything and just a short walk from the tube station, fitting perfectly for shopping, dining, and visiting local museums. The dining experience was excellent, especially the breakfast. However, the price for some meals seemed a bit too high. Overall, a great hotel with wonderful staff and amenities.

I had an absolutely brilliant stay at The beautiful Bloomsbury. The rooms were lovely, and the food was fantastic. The hotel's Conde' Nast designation in 2019 truly lived up to its reputation. The quaint rustic feel and the walk-in shower with a bathtub in the middle made me feel right at home in Australia.
