About Venue
The Bloomsbury is a 5-star luxury hotel on Great Russell Street in the heart of London's West End, owned and managed by The Doyle Collection, and one of central London's most architecturally remarkable event venues.
Housed in a Grade II-listed Edwin Lutyens neo-Georgian building, the hotel carries a genuine sense of history and grandeur that sets it apart from most event venues in the city. Its meeting and event spaces are among the most distinctive in London, ranging from a 266sqm ballroom with show-stopping tropical wallpaper inspired by King George V's travels to a book-lined library named after Nobel Laureate Seamus Heaney, a soaring vaulted Chapel, and an outdoor terraced garden restaurant beloved for its afternoon tea. The hotel's bars and restaurants, including Dalloway Terrace, The Coral Room, and the intimate Bloomsbury Club Bar, are each available for private hire and carry the same depth of character.
With 13 event spaces in total, The Bloomsbury can scale from a boardroom meeting for 20 to a gala reception for 320 guests. Each space comes with air conditioning, WiFi, and state-of-the-art AV equipment, and the in-house events team handles everything from bespoke catering and menu design to full event planning and production. All menus are built around seasonal, locally sourced produce, catered by the same team behind the celebrated Dalloway Terrace restaurant.
The hotel is two minutes' walk from Tottenham Court Road tube station, with excellent connections across London and to King's Cross St Pancras for Eurostar arrivals. The British Museum is directly opposite. Bloomsbury Square car park is close by. The hotel is fully accessible.
About this space:
George V Hall is the flagship event space at The Bloomsbury on Great Russell Street in London's West End, with capacity for up to 250 guests for a drinks reception or 180 for a banquet dinner.
This is a genuinely show-stopping room. The entire perimeter is wrapped in a custom show-stopping wallpaper depicting a tropical lake scene full of exotic botanicals and wildlife, inspired by King George V's extensive travels, and original handblown Waterford Crystal chandeliers hang from a 5.4-metre ceiling. Large windows flood the 266sqm space with natural light, which combined with the room's scale makes it one of the more unique grand event spaces in central London. It is equipped with plasma TVs, LCD projectors, and high-speed WiFi, and the flexible layout can shift between theatre, classroom, boardroom, banquet, and cabaret configurations. George V Hall sits on the ground floor with full accessibility, and the in-house events team and catering team are on hand to manage every aspect of the booking.
