Tucked away just behind Tavistock Square, you’ll be living in the heart of Bloomsbury, one of London's most authentic and central neighbourhoods. Known as the intellectual and literary capital of London, this area is filled with historical sites, museums, charming squares, and also plenty of restaurants and cafes. Lucky for you, it's not too busy with tourists despite its central location and there are many leafy parks to enjoy a quiet moment's downtime. Comfortable and bright, natural light pours in through the large sash windows, while the original fireplace and oak details make things feel warm and homely from the get-go. With three cosy bedrooms and three en-suite bathrooms, plus a modern, fully-equipped kitchen you'll have everything needed for a relaxing stay in this affluent part of town. On top of that, there's a standing balcony for those in need of a little fresh air or a place to sip their morning java, ready for an exciting day ahead.

Local guide
About Bloomsbury
Bloomsbury has got it all. Steeped in literary history (this is where Virginia Woolf and her pals used to live), filled with beautiful townhouses and some of the most delightful garden squares in London. It has some great pubs, and is home to one of London's most-loved street of independent shops and restaurants, the utterly charming Lamb's Conduit Street. The British Museum is on your doorstep and Oxford Circus is a ten minute walk away. Need we say more?

Catch a Film at The Curzon
Just a short walk away you'll find the perfect spot for a quick meal and a movie. This is a small and very beautiful arthouse cinema, focused on independent films, with underground screens and bar.
Grab a pint or three at The Euston Tap
Located right outside Euston Station, this is literally a drinking hole. Or Mecca. A variety of 20 keg beers, 8 rotating cask ales and 150 types of bottle beers from around the globe.
Visit the British Library
Read the Magna Carta or Beethoven's notes directly from the originals. This beautifully designed library stores some of the most important documents in British history.
Chill out on Russell Square
This small park sits in the middle of all the action, so is a great place to sit and people watch. You may even be lucky to catch the local Hari Krishnas in action.
Get inspired at the October Gallery
A popular spot especially with the industry folk, this somewhat small gallery houses the latest in emerging and avant-garde artworks.
Experience the Music and History at The Water Rats
Attractive bar with live music venue at the back, serving delicious food all day. Friendly staff and a great atmosphere make it a must-visit for music lovers.
Discover yourself at the Wellcome Collection
Known as the free destination for the incurably curious, this museum has a reputation in London. Besides questioning what it is to be human they also have the hip café and the glorious library.
Enjoy a Gourmet Brunch at Half Cup
Half Cup is an independent cafe in London offering gourmet coffees, breakfasts, and light meals. With a varied menu, fast service, and delicious food, it's the perfect spot for a memorable brunch experience.
Head for authentic Italian at Ciao Bella
Made to make you feel at home rather than to impress. This is a genuine Italian restaurant. Enjoy delicious simplicity accompanied by the ballads played by the in-house pianist.
Explore the Foundling Museum
Discover the touching history of the first British home for abandoned children. Immerse yourself in the beautifully presented story, accompanied by a remarkable art collection and Handel memorabilia.
Go Bowling at All Star Lanes
Part bowling alley, part Americana throwback, All Star Bowling is ranked one of the best bowling alleys in London. With only 4 lanes and tempting burgers and cocktails, it's a great time.
Get One Of London's Best Pizzas At Franco Manca
Pizza here is made from slow rising sourdough for a minimum of 20 hours. Made in a brick oven on-site by one of their artisans from Naples.
