Staff were excellent. Very welcoming and friendly. Rooms were really clean; could do with leaving a few more tea bags/coffee in the rooms. Two tea drinkers and only 2 tea bags! Shame bar closes at 11pm a number of guests having returned from theatre shows couldn`t get a night cap! Receptionist take on this role from 11-12pm in other hotels.

"Won`t be coming back "

I won`t rush back to stay at the hotel, our room have a street view with road works going on all hours of the night we had no sleep as the road works we`re constant with no warning from the hotel that there might be disturbance! The only rest we got was 4am-6am absolutely ridiculous. Not a great start to spending the day in London !

"Friendly smily staff and a clan efficient hotel "

Had a great 3 days at the Tavistock hotel. We ate a bar meal but it wasn`t up to the high standards of the hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful but the meal let the bar down.

"Tavistock "

Very welcoming staff, a great variety for breakfast, an all you can eat buffet at a great price. The only thing for us that let it down was, room a little tatty and dated. Annoying creaky floor boards. It was also very hot in our room, could see anyway of turning radiator off, which meant we had to leave the windows open. This unfortunately meant that we were woken a few times by traffic and passers by at the early hours. However, the bed and pillows were very comfy.

"Tired"

Great location, adequate for 1 night. The hotel location is good, main areas are lovely but the rooms were very tired. Adequate for what we needed. Would have been nice to have breakfast included but this was additional cost.

"Good location "

Looking a little tired but overall very good, everything works, good shower, comfortable bed, clean bedding and towels. Staff were helpful and pleasant. Breakfast was excellent with a wide range of choices. Hotel is walking distance from Euston and Russell Square so it`s easy to get around. Overall a very pleasant short break.

"Excellent housekeeping staff"

One night stopover. Room fit for purpose, if a bit warm - no airconditiong. Fan provided which helped but not completely comfortable. Had issue with electrics in the room but sorted very promptly and courtesly by housekeeping. Nice bathroom with good quality complimentary shampoo etc. Nice bar. Well positioned for access to theatre land and Victoria

"Tavistock hotel"

Easy to find from Kings Cross, within walking distance. It`s in a good location. The hotel is spotless! Couldn`t fault the cleanliness of our room. We chose room only but we did have a meal in the attached pub, Wolf and Whistle and it was delicious, fresh and very reasonably priced. Very friendly staff in the hotel. Only thing I would say is the shower curtain sticks to you whilst showering, it`s a friendly one, haha. Shower good pressure. The theatre break was outstanding value and highly recommended. This hotel is central to the train station and theatre, 15 minute walk each way. There are a couple of lovely little parks near too if you want to escape the hustle and bustle. Brilliant!!

Breakfast was great plenty of choice good replenished frequently staff very hard working as busy but still cheerful.

Our twin room was very small. Extremely warm. No air con but there was a fan which we needed to have on all night so we could cool the room enough to get some sleep. The plug for the tv didn`t work so we couldn`t watch the tv. The toilet cistern didn`t stop running. The only good thing was the beds were comfortable and clean

"Attractive hotel with period character in Bloomsbury, but let down by uncomfortable bed."

Tavistock Hotel was well located in Bloomsbury, and looks attractive. However our room was dated and small. I was disappointed in the bed, and would suggest new beds are sourced. The bed was very soft, and creaked whenever one turned over, resulting in a poor night`s sleep. Also the shower curtain over the bath billowed back towards the bather in an uncomfortable way. A fixed shower screen would be an improvement.
