A good friend of mine told me to make my way to London whenever I had the chance to. As I neared my 40’s I decided that now was the right time for me. So I booked my plane tickets as well as my hotel accommodations online. I decided to stay at the Bloomsbury Park hotel, which was also a recommendation from my good friend.
I only planned on staying a week and needed to be as thrifty as possible. I was planning to spend no more than 60 Euros a night. I got a lovely room at Bloomsbury Park for only 48 Euros, which meant that I was going to have some extra money. This was already a plus in my book.
Compared to most hotels this hotel was not as large as I though it would be. There were only 95 rooms, which gave me a certain level of privacy. I liked the size of the hotel and the fact that the staff could take better care of the guests due to the smaller size.
I noticed during my stay that I was never bored even when I was staying in my hotel room. There was plenty to do and I enjoyed hanging out in some of the family rooms that this hotel housed. Everyone was approachable and friendly which makes me want to come back here when I hit my 50’s!
