We're very choosy about our Thistle Associate Hotels, and Bloomsbury Park, London is a perfect example. An elegant Edwardian hotel, Bloomsbury Park embodies all the values we hold dear at Thistle -excellent location and facilities, great service and a warm, welcoming atmosphere - and consistently achieves the high standards we set for ourselves. Within walking distance of the British Museum and Covent Garden - and, incidentally, our own Kingsley - Bloomsbury Park blends effortlessly into this elegant and historic part of west London. Inside, though, there's a thoroughly contemporary look and feel to the 95 bedrooms, fully-equipped meeting room, seating 35 theatre-style, and the recently-opened Cellar Bar. A place where our most discerning guests can feel immediately at home.

stayed at hotel numerous times, always spotlessly clean and warm . Well situated for Soho, Convent Garden, Oxford Street and Euston station. Also the British Museum is just around the corner, always something new to see there. Immediate area also interesting, Charles Dickens home nearby also Sloane museum.

Upgraded yo a double bed

I was happy to receive the news that .i was upgraded to a double room at no extra charge when I had booked a single room. The bed was comfy and although the room was not big it was spacious enough. The bathroom was a bit cold, but the temperature i. The room was very good. The Free Internet worked well. I would return to this hotel!

Location, Location, Location!

We were two young people. Smal but ok room. Nice view (british museum) in the 7th floor. Never ate there, but there's a starbucks for breakfast in the same building as well as a tesco (supermarket) really close. The tube (subway)(nothern-line and central-line) is near. Like 100-200m busses are even closer. The location is the best about the hotel. (Everything else is quite average.) The hotel is in Walking Distance to the oxfordstreet, all the cool stuff as Carnabiey or Seven Dails. It's even possible to walk to leicaster Squere/ Trafalga Square/ Picadilly Circus etc. = about 20-25 min. Walk. Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, Westminster, about 40-50 min. by Foot. By Bus (depending on the day and the time) about 20 min. And by tube even faster.

Friendly staff but poor service

Room: The first room that they sent me to was so small, the door hit the bed when you opened it. No chair, no dresser, no room -- I complained and they immediately set me up in a much better room. Telephone: They had recently redone some but not all of their phone system. No one could tell me how to get phone messages off the telephone. Also, when you are on the phone, they charge you by the minute. I was on a local London call for 15 minutes and it cost me $60. Elevator: There's only one, and it holds only four people, and you share it with housekeeping and those giant things that they push around. If you're not on the breakfast voucher system, the waitstaff will be confused and focus more on that then getting you a cup of coffee.
