This was a real gem, I was lucky enough to stay here in the holiday season whilst the students were away. There was a little bar with very reasonably priced drinks and I got to listen to a jazz concert. Wonderful surroundings.

Best-kept secret in London!

This place is AMAZING! A room that took me back to my first year uni days (but much bigger and nicer) in a wonderful area of Bloomsbury. Breakfast in the Great Hall, original art everywhere, beautiful outdoor spaces and lovely, helpful staff. I would stay there again in a heartbeat. And ridiculously cheap, too!
