“Thistle London Bloomsbury Park presents an interesting mix; the Edwardian structure houses updated interiors, and it's well-suited for business given its event spaces and West End location. The brasserie and bar add to the appeal, while the location is ideal for accessing cultural hotspots. In my opinion, it balances historical charm with practical amenities.”

FANTASTIC Location and AMAZING Service!
excellent locationshort walknearby tubecramped room
This accommodation boasts an EXCELLENT location for discovering the city centre. It allowed us to easily walk to several theaters we visited. It also gave us access to Oxford Street and Covent Garden. The nearby tube station was a short 5-minute walk away.
The room felt cramped, like a small single room with a double bed squeezed in. I found it difficult to move around comfortably. The bathroom was TINY. Entering and exiting the shower was a challenge.
Location
9/10
This hotel offered convenient access to popular attractions and key transport links. Oxford Street and Covent Garden are a short walk, providing diverse shopping and dining options. The nearby tube station allows easy travel to other parts of the city.
Facilities
8/10

Service

The reception staff were helpful with directions, dining suggestions and taxi arrangements. The check-in process was efficient and friendly. This contributed to a smooth and cute arrival.
