MyHotel Bloomsbury Review

Lovely hotel, rooms aren't anything special but is in a perfect location to get around London. Staff are very attentive and friendly - requested an iron + board and it was in the room in a couple of minutes.

Reception and entrance looks lovely but room is very outdated and feels very budget. Tiny as well as in bad condition on many accounts. Wouldn't say it's good value for money but good location.

very comfy beds. lovely and quiet and very clean. expensive for a room that was only a standard size but that's probably down to the area. well located.

Convenient location, but... Huge crack in the sink of my room. Breakfast was expensive and not great, bed very short

I went to the Spa at myhotel Bloomsbury for an hour long full body massage and it was such an amazing experience! Christina, the Spa manager, was so professional and great in what she was doing, she gave me some useful advice and really made my day:) I can definitely recommend that place to everyone!

Good location, Soho, rooms small but clean. Express check out.

Was pleasantly surprised. Cozy rooms with sufficient space, must have been renovated somewhat recently, really good service and perfect location. We had a room on the 4th floor facing the backyard which was perfectly quiet.

Cosy hotel. Small rooms but very clean and modern interior.
Breakfast in general tasty but the kitchen has some Organisator problems. Very slow - waitet 20 min for a breakfast. If you have to catch a flight this might be not very comfortable but the stuff is very considerate and try to satisfy their customers by all means.

Will stay here again for sure!

Centrally located and convenient hotel with friendly staff.

Looks nice but don't be deceived. Not heating or hot water in the evening or morning. Fire alarms also went off at midnight. Not a good start to the day

Liked the location. Rooms were small but that was expected. We spent 3 nights there over a weekend and had and overall lovely visit.

Worst hotel ever. more youth hostel than a hotel. First room had mold in the bathroom second room the heater was broken. For this price you get much better deals at hotels nearby. Photos on maps are not accurate. Plus a lot of comment refer to "The Bloomsbury" which is a completely different hotel...

Location yo. Modern narrow room. This is a bit tough for Japanese people. It would be nice not to have a bathtub, but the water pressure and drainage of the shower were bad. It is good if it is divisible only by going to bed.

Had a couple of problems with the shower blasting out water at 3am, and bin men banging about outside pre 6am. So, not much sleep was had. The bed was comfy, nice coffee and tea making facilities. Book with them direct for free mini bar credit and treats on arrival. I missed out on this.

Great hotel in decent location away from crowded tourist areas but near Googe/Tottenham stations on the Northline and walkable to sights like Trafalgar Square. (If you don't mind a bit of an amble.) Clean modern rooms are "cozy" but comfortable and staff friendly. Gail's restaurant on one side and Gail's bakery on the other make food & good coffee easy in the morning. (Gail's has some vegan options too!) Overall would stay here again!

Okay hotel with small rooms.
Breakfast is in the Cafe next door.

Room clean. Good facilities in room.
Tea in room rubbish.
Breakfast very poor. No full English...

Great location, fabulous breakfast at Gail's kitchen

Nice, clean, functional. A bit on the small side, but that's London for you..

Good location, lovely receptionists. Lack of cleanliness, unpredictable carpet, room that gives internal courtyard with noise of machines, things that do not work as a cistern ...

Its so nice i love it
The breakfast was amazing

Honestly it's not worth the price paid. 185 gbp per night for a tiny room, quite old in finishes, worn carpet, no wardrobe and no safe. Quite noisy and poorly soundproofed. Beautiful hall, different from the usual. Convenient location but nothing more.

So the location is definitely great. But the (single) rooms are very cramped, without a view (the window was covered with a temporary film) and not properly furnished. It is more like a thrown together pile of furniture. The "closet" had no doors and was in a narrow spot in the room so that you couldn't get through without moving your wardrobe back and forth.

The walls are quite thin and the floors (wooden planks covered with thick carpets) creak and the doors slam very loudly into the lock, so that you always have a certain background noise - even at night.

The free wifi always had a maximum speed of 0.5 Mbit / s for downloading and uploading! Supposedly nobody would have complained before !?

For the same money (London is very expensive anyway) you can also get other, better equipped hotels in the area.

There are differences in the rooms so make sure you get a good one... I booked a superior double and the first room i got didn't look anything like the images... ;( so i asked to change and got a very nice corner room, but pay attention to what they give you.

Central location, but next to a busy street, and above a pub, so not a quiet location. I explained by email a day before arriving that I am a very light sleeper, and asked for the quietest room available. I got a nice response saying that they would do what they could to accommodate my request. But when I cam to check in I was given a room directly opposite the lift (so people coming home from their night out, talking/laughing as they exited the lift, would be just a few feet away from my bed), unless I was willing to pay for a more expensive room. I looked at the room, which was small, but seemed fine (see photos) but decided to go somewhere else.

Went into room where guests were already staying. Free upgrade to superior room.

Cozy and organized, friendly and helpful staff, very convenient to the center and to the subway so it is in a good location. Silent rooms, not disturbed by traffic.

It's OK for the money, especially when considering the central location. However the walls are paper thin and the next rooms T.V and hairdryer came through very clearly.

The two radiators in the room were also extremely loud when turned on. Too loud to sleep, and only luke warm hot for all that noise.

Plus points is a big comfy bed with excellent pillows, mattress and giants sized duvet. Room was very clean and generally in good condition.

I think I'd come again because of the location and pricing.

Good central location but rooms tiny for the money you pay.

In a truly great location. My room was, by far, the nicest prison cell I've ever spent a night in. Will gladly come back again, should I get arrested.

Quality place with great location. Rooms are small as you would expect for the area

Good hotel. Book the suite with the balcony is worth every shekel

Bathroom was not great and room very small, pourly decorated

Don't be fooled by carefully selected photos of the rooms and the trendy entrance. After shimmying into the room it reminded me of my nans airing cupboard. small, peeling wallpaper and about as much light. Dirty walls and stains on the floors are what you might expect at a travelodge at half the price...

Superior room was quite nice. The restaurant was surprisingly good.

Staff was polite. Room was small and noisy. Although not entirely full breakfast service was sluggish (not a self-service bar).

Small room
Need to wait 10 min for hot water
Poor breakfast
Good location
Expansive
Most of the staff speaks poor English and not very familiar with the area.
You can find big and batters hotels for sure.

We stayed 2 nights in the rooftop penthouse, celebrating 40 years of marriage and it was like a honeymoon suite, incredible views from the terrace, bread with butter and jam in the cafeteria and espresso coffee, the staff helped us a lot since I canceled and we had to connect another flight at midnight, but I think it is the only time that they do not have to meet multiple demands of the guests, it hurts I could not get one of the extra-soft bath robes with jacuzxi

Nice hotel. The location is more than fine. The room is clean and has everything you need. The beds are great. The air conditioning is doing well, the windows can open a bit. Unfortunately the ramer are stickered and therefore you cannot really look outside (although we do not really have a view). The hotel is somewhat dated here and there but looks fairly modern. The service is very good, the staff is friendly and helpful, we had forgotten that the socket in England is different from the one in the Netherlands, for this we received two free plug blocks with which we could easily solve this problem.

Clean rooms. Has air conditioning! Close to British Musuem. Friendly staff. Reasonable prices. Nice location

Dated building, dated, small, uncomfortable rooms. Definitely overpriced for what you're getting. The only true benefit is the location.

Nice hotel but some details should be renovated like showers etc..

good location, compact and clean room, friendly staff and excellent service!

My single room was about the size of a prison cell. For a prison cell, however, I give 5/5 stars as there were alcoholic drinks in the minibar, I had a private shower, and I could leave anytime I wanted.

Hotel was nicer than expected and staff went above and beyond. I would recommend this Hotel. Great location. Less than 5 minute walk to the tube, a bar on the corner next door and a bakery attached to the lobby. Plus the British Museum was around the corner.

Room heating didn't work and reception couldn't do anything. I used the blow-dryer as a space heater. No hot water last day, so I didn't get to shower before my 11 hour flight. Otherwise convenient location, easy airport access via subway, outlets that remain on when you leave, fair bedding and no frills. Be aware that there's another hotel called "The Bloomsbury".

The bar staff need a lesson in customer service but the hotel is nice and a great (if noisy) location. The brighton one is way better.

Great location, room was small, even by London standards. Would return, but not at the rate I paid!

Very disappointing stay. Beware you may not get the room you are expecting. Booked through Expedia, which showed really modern ensuite standard doubles - I booked and so I was expecting that level of room. Turn up to check in a 5.30pm and I get this dated, tiny room. When I query with reception they say all the refurbished rooms go on a first come first served and there's nothing they can do. I wouldn't go back.

Find perfect location. Central area next to the metro and full of restaurants of all kinds. L very spacious room and the, coffee shop and lounge very recommended. The only one but nobody speaks Castilian.

Albergo carino ma camere base microscopiche senza un vero armadio e senza cassaforte in camera

Lovely hotel. Clean and comfy. Feels modern. very central.

Friendly staff, great and convenient location, good value for money.

Definitely avoid this hotel!!!
Room & bathroom sizes are tiny and the interior is how hotels looked in the 90 s. Stains on the carpet floor, super cheap mattress, broken knobs, half way painted walls and the list goes on and on.
Prices are okay for a stay in town but what you actually get for it is at best motel standard.
I only stayed for one night and will never in my life return to this dump.

Beautiful room with fantastic service. The bakery downstairs is a must!

A really nice hotel with a modern feel, comfy bed, clean and spacious bathroom really close to Tottenham court road. Location is excellent and as a last minute substitution for my normal hotel, I was really happy. Only one lift which ended up taking a while.

Room very old, staff without kindness. 30 minutes waiting for a more than average breakfast. This is definitely not 225 euros a night.

Room was clean, excellent service and great location.

Boutique hotel, convenient for Covent Garden/Bloomsbury area and TCR tube station. Reasonable wine list, bit pricey though.

Fantastically located hotel for overnight stays or extended travels to London. Just off Tottenham court rd and near to many attractions and shops.

Excellent location but it took 3 days of constant reminding to repair the air conditioner (on very hot summer days).
Most of the small bathroom filled with a large bath (why not a compact shower ?) leaving space for only an uncomfortably small hand basin.

Very helpful and polite staff.

A perfectly located hotel, with great price and value

My family had a 4 night stay at this hotel recently, and the whole thing is more than average. Room much smaller than expected and that's saying something. My parents did not sleep the first day because of a street lamp that floods the room + the sound of ambulances all night long. The minimum would be to put in place a blackout curtain ... especially for the price. It's expensive and not worth it. Apart from the location that is in the center. If you can go your way.

My Bloomsbury hotel, Its a beautiful hotel and I would like to recommend it to all you holidays makers and working-class to visit. You have friendly staff to make your welcome beautiful and your stay wonderful with there hospitality skills there rooms and beds are comfortable and warm. So let me know how you spend your time at My Bloomsbury thanks

Very good service, comfortable rooms, good price-quality ratio. The breakfast is too expensive for what they serve.

Less than expected for 4 stars. The location was very convenient and the breakfast was nice.

Toilets were broken, we mentioned it on the first day, and we've been told that maintenance would come and fix it. They never came, and when we mentioned it again upon check-out, the answer was just 'oh yes, it's an old building, that's normal'. Well, I don't think it's normal to have a broken toilet for almost 200 eur / night... The room was very tiny, especially for 2. It was also rather noisy, although that's normal in such a central location. Breakfast is nice, but rather overpriced.

0 stars, worst hotel experience! I arrived to check in to the hotel and was placed in a room that had dirty walls and smelled like mold. When I told the front desk, they informed me there was nothing they could do about it and that was the best room that had available that night. If that was the best room, I would hate to see what the other rooms looked like. Ultimately ,I ended up leaving and relocating to another hotel. More like a motel than a hotel. Would not suggest staying here.

I had room 322.

+ Air conditioning works, is stable and quiet
+ Rather powerful hair dryer
+ Refrigerator available in the room
+ Pillows are comfy - not too big

- The only available window faces a backyard where some sort of kitchen exhaust is operating
- Water in the shower is warm at most
- Breakfast is a cooperation with the nearby cafe - the menu is absolutely tiny
- A lot of dust

Overall, the hotel definitely does not rate 4 stars. 3 (overpriced) stars is an honest rating.

Bathrooms are fabulous and typically the rooms are small but since we were there to see London that was not an issue. Great location close to the tube, buses, and trains. Shopping options and restaurants galore!

Very blunt, but sincere staff. Very helpful. Left my jacket behind upon checkout. Was found and kept safe for my pickup the following day. Staff was well informed, and it was a pleasant experience.

I stay away a lot and found this place as a last minute booking. Really enjoyed my night, great room, great service and superb value

Hotel clean and well maintained. The staff is friendly and the breakfast very good. Single room is clean but it is very small 5m2 (looks like a student room) and is also noisy. This is definitely not the price in my opinion.

The room was quite small, which was OK, but there was very not-OK smell from the shower drain that ruined my experience.

Rooms are old and run down and small. We were also overcharged upon checkout, be watchful.

Poor Service, did not recognise booking, when found could not identify payment despite confirmation via phone. No breakfast due to mess up in order and limited time.
