“A grand hotel in central London that perfectly mixes British traditions with contemporary style. Smart rooms are cleanly designed with contemporary furniture, soft patterns and uber luxury bathrooms. An atmospheric bar harks back to a more glamorous era. Well positioned for city exploration.”

Hotel Review
You’ll find iconic luxury hotel The Bloomsbury in a beautifully restored Lutyens’ 1930s’ neo-Georgian building in London’s literary heartland, close to Covent Garden. Cosy and luxurious it’s hard to believe the hotel has 152 rooms: it’s more home from home than hotel with the best turndown service I’ve come across. The elegant rooms and suites are peppered with little luxuries including Malin and Goetz products, Nespresso machines, in-room rolltop baths and luxury marble bathrooms.
Downstairs you can choose between The Coral Room, the glamourous art deco bar which turns to a sultry red when the lights are dimmed, and the Bloomsbury Club Bar, a more intimate affair. Dining at the Dalloway Terrace is a must, it is, after all London’s most instagrammable restaurants and one of the most romantic. Virginia Woolf, an author whose name is synonymous with Bloomsbury, wrote the eponymous character in her novel Dalloway Terrace. This beautiful indoor-outdoor space undergoes seasonal changes and is accompanied by a fresh, often-updated menu as well as beautiful floral installations. If you’re after a luxurious slice of the city look no further.
