Lovely hotel in great location.

The Bloomsbury is a good hotel located close to the British Museum and within walking distance of the National Gallery and other cultural attractions. It’s also close to theatres and the shops of Oxford Street. It has recently been renovated and is in excellent condition. Very friendly and helpful staff. I only stayed for one night but would be concerned about noise from neighbouring rooms if I was staying longer and had noisy neighbours.
