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.

central London and many of the best known attractions. Piccadilly Circus which
marks the very centre of tourist London is just half a mile to the south. Local
