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:
The Chapel is a strikingly intimate private hire room on the first floor of The Bloomsbury on Great Russell Street, with capacity for up to 30 guests for a drinks reception or 24 for a banquet dinner.
The room takes its name from the original building and the 5.8-metre vaulted ceiling is still very much in evidence, giving this 61sqm space an extraordinary sense of height and drama for its relatively compact footprint. Natural light, plasma TVs, LCD projectors, and air conditioning make it a practical choice for smaller corporate meetings and presentations, while the room's sheer architectural character makes it equally suited to private dinners, engagement parties, and intimate wedding receptions. It is the kind of space that impresses guests immediately on entering and gives any event a memorable setting. Bespoke in-house menus are available for all formats.
