1. Personal Experience
Oh, where do I start? My recent stay at the Kimpton Fitzroy London was quite the delightful surprise! Nestled right in Bloomsbury, it felt like stepping into a little slice of luxury without being overly pretentious.
I remember checking in and being greeted by the friendly staff—honestly, they made me feel right at home. The lobby is stunning, with that grand staircase that just screams elegance. I spent my first evening wandering around the area, soaking up the vibrant atmosphere and admiring all those beautiful Georgian buildings.
Now, let’s talk about breakfast! I had this incredible spread each morning; there was everything from fresh pastries to perfectly cooked eggs Benedict. Just a heads-up though: if you’re not an early riser, you might miss out on some of those goodies because they go fast!
The room itself was cozy yet stylish—a perfect blend of modern comforts and classic charm. And while the view wasn’t exactly jaw-dropping (I got a lovely look at another building), it did give me a sense of being part of the city’s hustle and bustle.
2. Main Highlights
What really stood out for me were three key things: first off, that breakfast buffet—it’s a game changer for starting your day right! Secondly, the location is spot on; you’re just a stone’s throw away from Russell Square and other iconic spots like The British Museum. It makes exploring London so easy!
Lastly, I have to mention the rooftop terrace—though I didn’t get to enjoy it as much as I’d hoped due to weather quirks (classic London!), I could see how it would be an amazing place to unwind after a long day.
3. Recommendation ★★★★☆
Overall, I’d say Kimpton Fitzroy is perfect for couples looking for a romantic getaway or even solo travelers wanting some comfort in their adventures around London.
Honestly? I’d go back in a heartbeat—there’s something special about finding that balance between elegance and warmth here!
