FESTIVE SEASON 2015

CHRISTMAS AT THE BLOOMSBURY

Join us this year in celebrating a magical festive season at The Bloomsbury

where a warm and friendly welcome awaits all our guests. Enjoy exceptional

cuisine, wonderful surroundings and personal service that always goes that

extra mile. Perfectly located close to Covent Garden and London’s West End

theatres, the fashionable shops of Oxford and Regent Streets and a short hop

from a Winter Wonderland experience in Hyde Park. The Bloomsbury is the

ideal base to explore the capital during the festive season.

Celebrate with up to 280 colleagues, friends or family members in one of our

stunning event spaces, or for a more intimate setting enjoy a private dinner in

the Seamus Heaney Library or The Chapel. Or perhaps consider joining us for

a post-shop Afternoon Tea in Lutyens Lounge.

Relax with family and friends in sumptuous sofas beside the Christmas tree

and its sparkling lights in the grand lobby with traditional afternoon tea,

or revel in the nostalgia of Christmas past with an array of board games in

the Library, where a special selection of Christmas movie favourites will be

screened. Then as each day draws to a close, unwind and sleep soundly in one

of our well-appointed luxurious, individually styled bedrooms and fabulous

suites knowing that tomorrow will bring yet another truly

memorable experience…

We look forward to welcoming you to celebrate the traditions and magic vof

the festive season at The Bloomsbury.
