Small Luxury Hotels of the World - the Academy

Bloomsbury London|0.13km from New London Architecture
The photos and website information about The Academy are incredibly deceptive about this boutique hotel. Sounded and looked lovely online and with a middling price of £188.00 per night B&B sounded a good choice for a solo mini trip to London. The reality was incredibly different. The hotel is scruffy and shabby and the loos smell of fish. Sadly, the service was non-existent and not at the level I would expect of a member of the Small Luxury Hotels of the World. I had a single room (which I chose as it was just me) on the ground floor overlooking the courtyard. It as very basic, but adequate and unlike the other reviews, it was quiet (except from the noisy air-con system). The en-suite was tiny, but the shower was reasonably powerful. As many have already mentioned, the room was stiflingly hot, with a small and inadequate air-con unit which struggled with the heat. I can only imagine what it would have been like when we had the 40C heatwave. I struggled to use the remote control device to work the air con and so, at 12.30am in my dressing gown, I went in search of someone to help me. Daniel came into my room and helped me to get the aircon working and it tried its best to cool the room down. By the next day, and with it on 24/7 the room did finally cool down. As someone else has also mentioned the lights from the aircon system lit up the whole room like a disco! The lights outside the room in the corridor also didn't turn off at night and so the room was bathed in a bright white light from outside and red, green and yellow lights from various fuse things in the room. So, once the air-con was working as best as it could, my attention then turned to the lights! I propped open the en-suite door to block out the light from the corridor, and then managed to pin and stuff towels and a spare pillow case over the disco lights to dim the bright glare. As you can imagine, the first night was a bit of a nightmare with not much sleep. Breakfast the next day was good and the staff in The Refectory were the first to greet me with a welcoming smile and were so helpful and attentive. The breakfast (and staff in the Refectory) have saved this review from being the lowest rating of Terrible. I am incredibly disappointed with my two night stay at The Academy and regret staying there. To finish on a positive note, the location was great and easy to walk to all the places that I wanted to walk to. So great location for Soho, Piccadilly, Covent Garden etc, but poor service and a tired and tatty hotel. So, Bloomsbury is super, just choose an alternative hotel.

Bedford Corner Hotel
4/566 Reviews
Bloomsbury
Code given to access lift and my room not working, staff had to follow me to my room to let me in. I asked if I can have a new code just in case I need to go out or I get locked out. He said he will get back to me but never. I went downstairs to collect my food delivery after 30mins and bumped into that same staff, he walked past me without even saying sorry or hi. Have to asked the front desk to give me a new code. Lift was a bit glitchy, no free coffee or milk or anything. Everything in the room costs money. Ridiculous
Staunton Hotel - B&B
4.1/567 Reviews
Bloomsbury
Hotel was very close to Soho area, 5 minute walk to the underground, plenty of restaurants in area. Three travelling and our triple room was very spacious for three. Could of used one more mirror in the room, given we were three. No elevators so any one with mobility issues should request ground floor. I believe their were some rooms on ground floor. This is the reason for the four star. Breakfast had all the basic choices. We liked this hotel because it was just far enough from the very touristy heavy foot trafficked areas. It had many good restaurants in the area to choose from if you wanted to walk to one. Few wine bars as well, one in particular just around the corner. The British museum is 5 minutes away.

Bloomsbury Palace Hotel

Bloomsbury
Great price, great location for everything we wanted to do in London. Staff were very helpful and friendly, we booked a double room and ended up with a triple room instead. The breakfast was very good but the only thing that I would of liked would be the option of a hot breakfast, but this is only my observation and not a criticism. We would certainly book this hotel again.
Gower House Hotel
3/540 Reviews
Bloomsbury
Close to UCL Our room is on the fourth floor, there is no elevator, dragging heavy luggage and walking the narrow stairs. The room was really small, two people were too crowded, three of us. The main location is good. The bathroom is small, but there is floor heating, the clothes will dry, and the winter is particularly good. The room was hot. In particular, the breakfast at her house, the three of us gave a small blue roasted scented three kinds of bread, really delicious. We are scented from the fourth floor to the restaurant in the morning, it should be an unforgettable fragrance. The taste is also awesome. Later I asked for another one. But in addition to bread, coffee tea chocolate, jam, canned fruit, no meat, no eggs. Only half full. Sorry to have bread again. There are subway stations and bus stops around, which is very convenient.
St Giles London – A St Giles Hotel
3.9/5184 Reviews
Bloomsbury
Staff were very helpful and friendly. I got upgraded free to the refurbished room from the classic room I booked. Small room and bathroom but with great facilities, a window that works and blinds plus curtains that block out the light. A little noisy because of the street down below but not bad. The room had a nice new AC unit and the shower pressure was very strong, maybe a little too strong with no clear way to reduce the pressure (it's either on or off).
