Mousetraps visible in hallway had me lying awake almost all night! We arrived early and guy on reception was not particularly friendly welcoming or helpful gave us stickers to put on some of our luggage and told us to come back at 3pm. Shower really difficult to use due to setting and inability to change water direction. A pity as the actual room was well done and hotel is in a great position

We got the room that was the farthest down, and had no help carrying our bags to the very bottom of that basement. We did like the breakfast but the room felt claustrophobic and had a weird smell.

This hotel needs help

This one of the worst hotels i have stayed in,1) bathroom so small 2) Room for grown-up adults very small 3) Metal bars on the windows so if there is a fire in the basement you have no hope of getting out.4) Staff need help to be friendly and unstand what you want. 5).This hotel is not value for money.

Great hotel for the right people

Bloomsbury Palace was just what we were looking for. As first time visitors, we were out sight seeing all day. The location is excellent - a four minute walk to a useful stop and a 7 or 8 minute walk to the tube station for the Picadilly/airport line. The included breakfast was a big plus - we like to eat a good early meal so as to devote as much time as possible to see the city. The hotel is no frills. The climb to the 3rd floor (essentially 6 flights) was not enjoyable but this was a one time ordeal.

This place gives you easy access to the city and the staff was very friendly. The back garden needed a little care and some additional seating. We found the bed to be uncomfortable.

Initial room was terrible. Not just small – tiny, with no room to move. No air conditioning, and only tiny fan it was so noisy you couldn’t have it on if you wanted to sleep. Room up multiple steps – not good for someone in their 70s. Breakfast sub tended – coffee hopeless (with no choices – just one jug, not even the most basic of coffee machines). Bathroom facilities very basic. Eventually moved to better room, but still nowhere near standard when would expect from even a modest central London hotel.

Comfortable stay in a nice area. Unfortunately nearby doors in the hall slam when other guests enter or leave their rooms and are very loud. The hotel is quite quiet otherwise.

Bloomsbury Palace Hotel was conveniently situated nr Goodge St underground and 3 stops from London Kings Cross! There was a continental breakfast with a good choice. Our room was fairly warm but it had a fan in it which cooled it down. All the staff we met were very helpful and friendly. The hotel was close to Tottenham Court Rd for shopping and near quite a few dining restaurants in Store St. The area was quiet with beautiful houses and it was nice to wander around to see the architecture. I would recommend this competitively priced hotel

Pleasant surprise

Our stay was lovely, room was superb, really well fitted out. There was some road noise overnight and we were on the 3rd floor. Breakfast was ok although maybe some food coverings could be helpful over the cold meats and cheeses.
