The Crescent Hotel is located in Bloomsbury, in Central London. Our bed & breakfast hotel is near St Pancras International (Eurostar), Kings Cross Station Euston Station and Russell Square underground. Our elegant Georgian Grade II listed building overlooks a quiet crescent with gardens - an oasis of tranquillity in central London.
It nestles within the university and research cluster of London. Close by we have UCL, King's College, LSE, Birkbeck and SOAS and many research schools. We offer comfortable rooms, ranging from single to family rooms, an excellent breakfast cooked to order and a helpful, friendly atmosphere at reasonable prices.

Services
The Heathrow Express is a fast train (24 min) trip to Paddington but then you need to either change to the Underground to Kings Cross or take a short taxi ride. The taxi can be faster, though not always but certainly it is the most expensive. Finally, if you are in a small group it can be quite cost-effective to hire a chauffeured car or just to enjoy the convenience of a door-to-door service.
Our location in Bloomsbury - a centre of cultural historical importance - makes the hotel an ideal base to explore local attractions and to unwind in the newly landscaped Georgian Gardens or relax in a caf around the corner!
A few minutes walk away is the newly redeveloped King's Cross (King's Cross - welcome to the neighbourhood (kingscross.co.uk), with its piazzas of restaurants and bars, some overlooking the picturesque Regent's Canal with its many colourful barges.

We offer comfortable rooms, an excellent breakfast and a helpful, friendly atmosphere at reasonable prices. Over three generations of this family-run business, we have learnt that all guests want to enjoy the same high level of housekeeping, quality of breakfast and service, but want to choose the level of facilities that best suits their preferences.
Breakfast is served every morning to Classical music in our tastefully decorated Breakfast Room on the Lower Ground floor. The room is well ventilated and we have introduced a one-way flow to and from the breakfast room. To avoid crowding in the breakfast room we operate the following time slots, which you may book with reception: 07:30-08:00, 08:00-08:30 and 08:30-09:00.
The lounge, which overlooks the gardens, provides an ideal place to gather, search the internet, read magazines, or browse our Information Folder or select from the wide range of tourist information leaflets. If you arrive before check-in or depart after check-out, you are welcome to relax in the sitting room and store your luggage in Reception.

I recently stayed at Crescent Hotel for two nights and I enjoyed my stay. It was good value for money considering the location. The beds were very comfortable and the room was always warm. We had a small bathroom and shower in our room. I looked forward to returning each evening after a long day in busy London. I would recommend this hotel to others. It was located in a very picturesque area and near Camden Town and Kings Cross station. A very quiet hotel ideal for people wanting a quiet getaway. I would stay again.

A Lovely hotel in a perfect location. Need to stay near King's Cross or Euston? Then the Crescent is ideal as it's a 5 min walk to either, in a a quiet location on a 1810 built crescent overlooking tennis courts? A world away from the noisy Euston Road.
Caring and attentive staff, good sized rooms and well cooked breakfast. Glad I found it, as I'll be staying again whenever in the area.

A homely and welcoming B&B in the heart of London with a truly strategic position. Rooms are spacious and breakfast is delicious. We really felt at home and can’t recommend it enough if you are looking for a central B&B. Paul and Rita were very welcoming and very careful in making sure all Covid restrictions are respected and that everyone is safe. Thank you!

My stay at the Crescent was excellent. I was in a room with a shared hallway bathroom. The rooms nicely included a sink en suite. The room size was perfect for a single person and I had no problem with availability of the shower with my neighbors. Breakfast was tasty and a great added perk. Will stay at the Crescent again when I return to London.
