“The Tavistock, set in Bloomsbury, struck me as a solid choice for exploring central London, especially given its proximity to Russell Square station. From what I gather, the hotel nicely balances British and Indian culinary influences, which is a welcome change of pace. While not cutting-edge, it seems a reliable and conveniently located base.”

convenient location comfortable bed helpful staff limited space low water pressure street noise
the location where i stayed was very CONVENIENT. It was close to many restaurants and public transportation. The bed was very comfortable allowing a restful nights sleep. the STAFF were very helpful and friendly during check in and check out.
the room i stayed in was rather small. There was LIMITED space to move around, especially with luggage. The bathroom looked old and the shower had low water pressure. The noise from the street at night made SLEEPING difficult.

Excellent Value and Convenient Location
convenient location modern television sublime flavor
I found the location very convenient, near several Underground stations. My room included a modern television and a useful safe. The restaurant named 'Poppadoms' served really good mushroom biriani.
The absence of air conditioning made my room uncomfortably hot. Opening the windows helped a little, but I wished for a better cooling system.

The restaurant provides many choices for breakfast. The 'Poppadoms' restaurant offered flavorful dishes. I found the mushroom biriani especially delicious. The portions are generous, and the quality is excellent.
