Description:
The The Bloomsbury Hotel is in a great location on the doorstep to London's west end and theatreland. Just yards from the endless electronic bargain shops along
Tottenham Court Road, from the busiest shopping high street in Europe along
Oxford Street and from the wonderful nightlife of Covent Garden. Also a short
stroll from Soho which is known for its adult geared bars and clubs (including strip clubs) and its many excellent restaurants.
Covent Garden and
Soho are
major parts of theatreland and there are 9 theatres within 1/3 of a mile of the hotel. The Jurys actually sits opposite one of London's major attractions, the
British Museum. All-in-all this location allows for easy access (much of it walking distance) to central London and many of the best known attractions.
