After stay at the sister property, The Westbury in Dublin, our expectations were high. The staff was fabulous and very attentive. The room we were given had major construction on scaffolding right outside the window. Workmen were able to look into our room. We asked to be moved and were given a room that was quiet but was tiny! No room for a bedside table on one side of the bed and a bathroom that was almost unusable it was so small. After being out and about all day we came back to no housekeeping. We are pretty easy going, but the multiple issues definitely put a damper on our stay. It is definitely not the Westbury or any other Doyle Hotel we have stayed.

Wonderful hotel — clean, comfortable, well located to shops, food, transportation and theater. All walkable. The staff was amazing. I came for business but hope to return with my family. Terrific breakfast btw that’s worth adding to your bill if it’s not included.

The staff at the Bloomsbury were top notch! The concierge, the doormen, the guest experience manager, the wait staff in the restaurants; they were all fantastic!! The Bloomsbury is a great place, centrally located in London. I highly recommend this boutique hotel and I will definitely stay again when I return to London. Can't say enough about how much I thoroughly enjoyed my stay.

Poor
Stayed in a cosy room for 2 nights. Room was nice, 8th floor, bigger than i had thought. I didnt receive the turn down service which was really disappointing. On the way out on evening i saw someone pushing a cart with little boxes of macaroons on. Excited opened my room when i got back later to find nothing, noone had been in. Breakfast was nice however i felt really awkward, the lady directed me to the furthest away table and said 'because you sre on your own' i hope she meant it nicely but it came across poorly. Bath had a patch of paint in it that flaked off during use. Overall wouldnt recommend

The hotel itself is beautiful - the entry, common rooms, bars (Bloomsbury Club and Coral Room), Dalloway Terrace restaurant, breakfast room, and guest room were decorated beautifully and very clean. Housecleaning was perfect, including turndown service and a little tray of chocolates for our anniversary. All of the staff were very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast and drinks were very good. Location was amazing - central with easy access to the tube. Only complaint is beyond the hotel’s control: the street and especially the one alley approaching the hotel are dirty and unappealing (lots of litter). That being said, the area still felt safe and our room was quiet with only a slight sound from the underground that wasn’t disruptive to our sleep. We enjoyed our stay and would stay here again!

We could not have been more pleased with the staff and very personal care we were provided. We were recommended by friends and locals and delivered on everything - so this is more than promoted review. Gym was EXCEPTIONAL. Front desk delightful. Only consideration to add for travelers, it’s in the stream of tourists….often felt a salmon swimming upstream in the adjacent blocks. But this hotel we WILL return to often.

Front desk staff and door staff were very nice. I was excited to stay here as I had had drinks in the coral room a few years back and thought it was lovely. I found the room very small and it was right right next to the elevator so all night I could hear the elevator up and down. I had booked a standard room and it was over 295 pounds which was about $350 US dollars. I was expecting a little bit more of a standard for that price. The hotel is having work done so the entrance is not that appealing and the area around it has become not as nice as I remember. If you only stay in the hotel dining you might have a better experience. All in all I felt the price I paid was not what I got in terms of a room.
