The staff were friendly at reception and in the breakfast room. Our room was small with little room to move around. Storage in the room was OK. The shower cubicle was very small. Breakfast was OK with several different options. It is worth noting that there is only one lift which is very small, it will only take two people with luggage at a squeeze. The location is good with lots of pubs and restaurants close by. The hotel is a short walk from Russell Square or Holburn tube stations

Wonderful. We couldn’t be happier.
Special thanks to Aisha for being so friendly. We were made to feel so welcome, it was such a special way to start our trip to London. Our room is lovely and comfortable and quiet, everything is spotlessly clean. Genuinely very happy and contented customers. Thank you ☺️ Ps. Give Aisha a bonus - she’s a star.

For the price this was great. The elevator can only hold 1-2 people at a time depending on your size and how much luggage you have. So sometimes waiting for the elevator could take time if there were a lot of people using it

Staff were excellent!
Stayed with Thistle Bloomsbury Park in early August, room was lovely and clean although lack of air conditioning but a fan was provided in the room and was sufficient.It had everything we needed for our 1 night stay. But a special mention for Grimaldi and Yin on reception who gave excellent customer service and went above and beyond to make our trip special, both are a credit to the hotel

Only suggestion would be to have a small fan in the room as it was quite hot in the room; otherwise staff were very efficient and pleasant

Disappointed
This hotel has no AC. We came in July and it was quite hot and muggy. There was no soap in the shower or facecloths in the bathroom. (Fortunately, we had our own soap) The toilet was not flushing properly. We ran out of TP. Literally, someone had to run downstairs to get a supply. It took over 24 hours for our issues to be resolved. We were on the 7th floor. The elevator does not go to the 7th floor, so my daughter and I were dragging our bags upstairs and downstairs without assistance. (Same for another daughter, family of 4). It was clean and in a good location. Thankfully there was a fan in the room. The staff seemed put out with any issue reported and acted as if they didn't know what they were supposed to do about it. The bartender was great.
