This is a newly refurbished hotel in an excellent, central location. I was surprised how quiet it was in the rooms considering the central location. Staff could not have been more helpful. It’s also on the Piccadilly Line which means there are no changes from Heathrow. I will return!

The holiday Inn is undergoing a full renovation at the moment, the room I stayed in was brand new and finished to a high standard, I didn’t eat at the hotel but the newly renovated restaurant looks good, once all the work is complete the hotel should be excellent. Also friendly staff and plenty of parking in the underground car park.

Above all, the restaurant and bar were an added plus that made our stay very enjoyable.

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!
