The Bloomsbury Park is a Thistle Associate Hotel and so I expected a high standard having stayed in one of the groups hotels before. The hotel is just off RussellSquare with easy Tube access via Holburn or Russell Square stations. The room I had the mispleasure of staying in was on the 2nd floor toward the rear of the hotel, dark and dingy was the best attribute the room had to offer as this hid the multitude of poor maintainence and bad decor. To give you an idea i moved the TV forward to access the only spare socket in the room, the socket wasn't fully screwed to the wall and a large fist sized hole was also lurking out of site! No major problem aslong as you have a spare pair of rubber gloves. Talking with another guest at the end of my stay, he had a similar room but was moved to a room which had been recently renovated. This room although still fairly small was at least modern with a good standard of decor and amenities. Breakfast was a full English buffet with lots of choice but lacking in quality. Burnt sausage, Hard fried eggs! mushy mushrooms and very watery tomatoes. Overall, If you want a cheap and not so cheerful hotel to use as a base for exploring the capital then the Thistle Bloomsbury Park Hotel may be for you. However if you can stretch your budget a little further then I would recommend to keep looking.
