The Spotlight on Tavistock Hotel

Relaxed Central London Stay Near the Music Action

Modern comfort meets classic charm at the Tavistock Hotel, a 3-star spot located right in the heart of London’s Bloomsbury district. With leafy Tavistock Square just outside and the British Museum a short walk away, this hotel offers a peaceful base that's still close to the city's electric music scene. Expect clean, straightforward rooms with flat-screen TVs, free Wi-Fi, and tea-making facilities—plus a handy on-site restaurant and bar.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is a major win here—just a short stroll from Euston and King’s Cross St Pancras stations, making it easy to get to any gig in the city or beyond. Despite being central, the area is surprisingly calm, which is perfect for unwinding after a loud night out. The 14:00 check-in and 11:00 check-out times give you a little flexibility, especially if you're arriving early or sleeping in post-show. Plus, the multilingual 24-hour reception is a bonus for international music fans.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for an affordable central base
  • Solo travelers in town for a dream concert
  • Couples making a weekend of it
  • Fans who want a quieter spot to crash after the show
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who don’t want to compromise on location

Food and Drink Options

The Tavistock’s on-site restaurant serves up a mix of British, Indian, and local cuisine, with vegetarian, dairy-free, and halal options available on request. While room service isn’t 24/7, the hotel’s central location means plenty of late-night eateries are within walking distance. There’s a bar on-site for a quick pre-show drink or nightcap, and you can grab breakfast the next morning to refuel after a big night.

Nightlife Options

You’re perfectly placed for a night out—whether that’s heading to a major venue nearby or exploring the bars and pubs of Soho and Camden, both just a short Tube ride away. The hotel bar is low-key but convenient, especially if you’re not up for venturing far after a show.

What People Say

Guests love the central location and the ease of getting around London. Many mention the friendly multilingual staff and the hotel’s clean, functional rooms. Travelers also appreciate the proximity to transport hubs and walking distance to top attractions.

Areas for Improvement

Rooms can be on the smaller side, and décor is fairly simple—don’t expect luxury, but expect solid value. Some guests mention that the bathrooms could use a refresh, and occasional street noise comes with the central location.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers who want a well-connected, no-fuss stay in central London, the Tavistock Hotel hits the right note.

Liked: The beds were probably the comfiest beds we've stayed in. Our triple room was larger than expected. Really happy

Very good

Liked: Beds were sooooo comfortable. Clean and tidy. Tea and coffee available. No extras, but good enough. Location was perfect for what we needed. Bar and restaurant attached to hotel was professional and was acceptable.
Disliked: It was so noisy in the room, it was a Saturday night, but sounded like I was sleeping above a nightclub! Went on past 1am. The breakfast was lovely but so busy that my table got cleared away when I went to get a warm breakfast and someone else sat there. The staff found us another table but I had to go back and fill my own drinks again' whereas I would expect customer service they would have done that as an apology.
