Lovely stay at the Bloomsbury for Christmas. I felt well taken care of most of the trip. Had an unfortunate encounter with staff in the jazz bar, and would recommend avoiding that area if you are a single female. Otherwise, a lovely stay and would come back.

This was a great location and quaint property. It was close enough to be very convenient to the underground and shopping such as Oxford Street, but removed enough not to feel the chaos of the last minute Christmas shoppers. The staff was great, cocktails fabulous and our room was so very comfortable. I would stay here again if I returned to London.
