Alternatives
Other hotels we have written up that may suit a different brief.
Royal National Hotel
- Best for
- Friends and families comparing several bed configurations in Bloomsbury.
- Trade-off
- Large-hotel proposition rather than a small townhouse stay
The Royal National is a practical Bedford Way option when the trip revolves around sightseeing and the room must fit a particular party. Family, triple and Standard Plus categories make the room comparison more important than the property name. Choose by the confirmed beds and inclusions; a different category can change the value of the whole stay.

Bedford Hotel
- Best for
- Solo travellers or couples who want garden time between museum visits.
- Trade-off
- Southampton Row address is not itself a garden-square frontage
Bedford Hotel earns its place for a specific combination: a Southampton Row base with a garden to return to. The room list distinguishes ordinary rooms from garden-facing or garden-view categories, including a single-room option. That makes the outlook something to compare and reserve, rather than a promise attached to the whole building.
Booking tipConfirm the exact single room garden view arrangement and inclusions before comparing the total.
