Great location in Bloomsbury, the rooms are clean spacious and it felt safe in the area at night . It was lively on the Saturday evening but not too much and there are complementary ear plugs if you need them . The hotel staff are very helpful, the food is good and reasonably priced. It’s located 5/6 min walk from Euston and about 9/10 mins from Kings Cross. Very handy for the British museum Oxford St and Regent st and Regent’s Park all of which are in walking distance. Buses and tubes very close to get round London easily. We would definitely recommend it for a central London stay.

Staying here at the moment for 4 nights. Recommended by a friend who comes from Northern Ireland regularly. First time and we love it already. Stylish and with very friendly staff who are very welcoming. Fantastic location in London close to Tottenham Court Road, Soho and Oxford Street with great bus and tube connections. Spotless room overlooking Tavistock Sq gardens so a lovely view for us. A fan was provided in the room which was great as often in the warmer weather you have to request in many hotels in London. Great room service and lovely bar and restaurant. Can't fault it so far and it's only our second day but it's already surpassed our expectations. We'll definitely be back!

AVOID IN THE SUMMER. The staff were friendly and the lobby is very pretty. However… there’s no AC. I’m not sure how they get away with premium prices for a sauna. We paid almost 1k Canadian for 3 nights…. With no air conditioning… the windows barely open, and the street is noisy. Additionally, the rooms are pretty dirty. There’s a grime ring around the shower, and there was garbage under the bed, so things aren’t getting moved and cleaned between guests. The shower curtain will gently caress you, or the floor is soaked. Those are the options. Also, It can be really noisy if there’s someone above you, every step is amplified. I can appreciate a small business doing its best, but they’re ripping people off, especially in the summer. Hopefully they can invest in air conditioning or drastically reduce their prices.

I would dearly have liked to give 5 star on service but our check out let you down. This hotel is billed as 3 star. It’s above that for sure. Clean comfy and nothing too much trouble. We were there from Tuesday 11/8 to Sat . Heatwave. Big fan in room and unlimited supplies of icy water for your bottles at reception. No AC in rooms so if you want that go upgrade your hotel. Attractive location centrally. Easy links, Euston trains and tubes stations nearby, Two restaurants on site. Hundreds just beyond. Bloomsbury architecture fabulous.On the other hand… we handed over our card keys at checkout time and Miss Receptionist had only one word in her checking out vocabulary. We said “morning, checking out” she said… “ okay” and we left. A small sentence along the lines of .. Hope you enjoyed your stay.. would have been polite. Other than Miss Needing a refresher course on customer service we were very very happy and would visit again.

We had a wonderful stay at the Tavistock Hotel! The location is great, near Euston Station for arrival, and in walking distance to the British Museum and Oxford Street. The staff is amazingly friendly, always with a smile and willing to help. The room is clean and comfortable. We took a twin room garden view, and we really felt to be on holidays. The windows are simple, there is no air conditioning, only a fan. We will be staying again fr sure on your future travels!

This hotel is a great little gem of a place! The location is perfect for a visit to London as it is within walking distance to many sites as well as the “tube”. The service was spectacular and the stuff was helpful and friendly. The only reason I gave it 4 stars was because there was no A/C an our floor was going through some renovations to the hallway so it was a bit dusty and they started work early so it was a little noisy for us.

We had a pleasant stay here, the staff are friendly and it's in a good easy location to get to from Kings Cross. If you wanted to be close to museums etc then perhaps a bit further away but it is a nice area. Wasn't too loud traffic noise was but the room was unbearably hot, the fan provided just circulated hot air. The bed was really comfortable but thick bed linen on top of a hit room was not great. Good breakfast options, poached eggs on request was a nice addition.
