The British Museum is about 230 metres from Townhouse Bertrand’s London, a 4-star hotel in a townhouse on Bedford Place with a bar, a terrace and 24-hour reception. It works well if you want to do almost everything on foot: museums, Covent Garden and the West End theatres.
Location and getting around
From the door it is about 15 minutes on foot to Covent Garden. Piccadilly Circus, Trafalgar Square and King’s Cross St Pancras station are each about 20 minutes’ walk.
According to the property, Oxford Street is less than a kilometre away. Bedford Place is a street of terraced houses linking Russell Square with Bloomsbury Square, so you have two public gardens a couple of minutes away.
Rooms and facilities
Rooms have air conditioning, a private bathroom with toiletries, a bathrobe and slippers, a hairdryer, a kettle with tea and coffee, and a roomy wardrobe. Wifi is free.

Good to know
Arrival hours are 15:00 to 00:00 and check-out is from 07:00 to 11:00. Bring photo ID and a credit card. If your flight lands in the early hours, let the hotel know: outside those hours getting in may be difficult.
