The Spotlight on Kimpton Fitzroy London

Classic London Luxury Meets Concert Night Convenience

Modern elegance in a historic setting, the Kimpton Fitzroy London blends timeless architecture with contemporary design. Located directly on Russell Square in Bloomsbury, this Grade II listed hotel is a short stroll from Covent Garden, the West End, and major train stations like King's Cross and Euston — making it a stylish and practical choice for music lovers in town for a show.
With plush rooms, upscale dining, and a lively bar scene, it delivers a five-star experience just steps from the action.

Why Concert-goers love it

Concert-goers appreciate the ultra-convenient location — just around the corner from the Russell Square Tube station and a quick hop to London’s best music venues, including those in Soho and Camden. After a late-night gig, head back to a quiet, peaceful room with blackout curtains and top-tier bedding. Check-in starts at 3 PM, and with a generous 12 PM check-out, you can sleep in after dancing the night away. The hotel’s central location also makes grabbing a late-night Uber or walking home a breeze.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a classy base before and after the show
  • Solo travelers ticking a dream concert off the bucket list
  • Couples making a romantic weekend of it
  • Fans craving a quiet, upscale spot to recharge after the gig
  • Budget-conscious music fans willing to splurge a little for unforgettable comfort

Food and Drink Options

There’s no need to hunt for a 24-hour diner — Burr&Co. transforms from a coffeehouse by day to a wine bar by night, perfect for a post-show nightcap. Fitz’s Bar is a glamorous haunt mixing vintage flair with signature cocktails, while Galvin Bar and Grill serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner with local flair. If you’re feeling lazy, room service is available 24/7, and Palm Court offers all-day tea and coffee in a serene setting.

Nightlife Options

While there’s no live music on site, the hotel’s central location puts you just minutes from the buzzing nightlife of Soho, Fitzrovia, and Camden. Whether you're into sleek cocktail lounges or gritty underground venues, you're never far from the next round of fun. On nights in, Fitz’s Bar provides a chic but relaxed vibe with craft drinks and plush seating.

What People Say

Guests rave about the hotel’s grand architecture and modern, luxurious rooms. The service consistently scores high marks for being warm and attentive. Travelers love the combination of historic charm and contemporary comfort, and many mention the perfect location for exploring London’s music scene and nightlife.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note that the hotel can be a bit of a splurge, especially during peak event weekends. A few rooms are on the smaller side, typical of historic London buildings — but the style and comfort more than make up for it.

The Bottom Line

If you want a luxurious, central London stay that’s footsteps from the Tube and minutes from the music — the Kimpton Fitzroy London hits all the right notes.

Pleasant - 3.0 out of 5

Debbie K, Cornwall, visiting Novello Theatre London

Took a while to book in as there were two guests complaining about their stay which was not a good start. We were then welcomed by the desk clerk who proceeded to book us in, but when the phone rang, despite there being two other people behind the desk, he decided to answer the phone and so we had to wait several minutes before he finished the call and continued to serve us. On Saturday evening after returning from the theatre, we decided to call room service - we were phoning for several minutes but there was no answer! My sister then decided to go down to the reception herself to be told there was no room service on Saturday evening. This was not such a problem, but the only thing I take issue with is that the number for room service is the same number you would need to ring if you have any emergencies, so thank goodness we did not need a doctor! I think you need to look into that. The hotel itself was very nice - breakfast very good, service in restaurant very good.

Liked: Rooms very clean.
Disliked: No room service or anyone on the desk on Saturday evening; tea/coffee not topped up on second day.

Liked: We stayed in the King Studio Suite Park View room for 2 nights for our wedding and it was truly magical. The Kimpton Fitzroy is the most beautiful hotel we’ve ever stayed in! The hotel room was stunning and the staff were incredibly helpful. We can’t wait to come back again!

Location great. Building lovely ,...

Liked: The building and the surrounding lovely
Disliked: The room was unacceptable. It was very small. We paid over £320 room only and we could barely move in the room I had to place my suitcase in the bathroom. Breakfast was okay - however extra charges for a omelette?? What’s all that about ? Especially when we paid £30 per person ???

Nice location but be aware...

Liked: Hotel was situated close to St. Pancras International Train Station which is what was needed- a plus. Help staff were very courteous and helpful.
Disliked: Room was a good size for London, however big negative was the shower stall tiles/ grout were full of mold- didn’t notice until taking a shower- plus the air conditioner, when on produced a very unusual smell in the room. For a 4/5 star hotel, and for the price, this should not be the case. Very disappointing in this regard.

Liked: This building is phenomenal, from design, to decor and finishes. Staff were incredibly helpful, and super quick in responding to requests. Breakfast is very good, the bar is incredible, and the location is great. And the bed, especially the duvet, is just amazing
Disliked: Room was a little small (i'm nitpicking, really shouldn't complain about anything)
