We had a very pleasant stay at this hotel. The room was clean and fresh with all the relevant conveniences available. We appreciated the central location, especially being close to two metro stations and the convenience store across the road. Above all, the restaurant and bar were an added plus that made our stay very enjoyable.

We were very lucky to be given an upgrade, as the receptionist recognised us as regular guests. All the staff were very friendly and several recognised us from previous visits. The buffet breakfast was excellent as usual. We will be visiting again.

I have stayed at the HI Bloomsbury many times. The hotel is newly renovated, the breakfast is always outstanding and the location can’t be beat. But the personnel are the real reason I keep returning. Lita in the breakfast room, John Paul and all the reception staff are extremely helpful and welcoming. You can’t go wrong by staying at the HI Bloomsbury!

I was pleasantly surprised at how nice our stop was here. The staff were so helpful and friendly and the rooms so clean and comfortable. It’s a very nice modern clean Holiday Inn. We arrived early and were told our room was ready. The 12 check was so handy too and we used the bag drop off confidently. I will book here again with no hesitation.
