We had a lovely time staying at the Bloomsbury. Centrally located near to Tottenham Court tube station and the British Museum. The staff were fabulous, helpful and always cheerful. We dinned in the Dalloway Terrace restaurant for an evening meal and Afternoon Tea. Both times the food was excellent. Our room was on the 7th floor and was clean, quiet and comfortable. We enjoyed spending time in the lounge to relax after busy days sightseeing. Will definitely stay here again.
