Why we love it
The setting
Generator London sits on Tavistock Place in Bloomsbury, a quiet pocket of central London lined with garden squares and Georgian terraces. Russell Square and King's Cross St Pancras stations are both a short walk away, so the Underground and the Eurostar are within easy reach. The British Museum is also close, and the area keeps you near the centre without the noise of the main tourist streets.
What to expect
The property has a design-led, sociable feel, with a bar, a lounge area and bright communal spaces decorated with street art. Rooms are compact and modern, kept simple with twin beds and a private bathroom. This deal covers a Double room with twin beds, sized around 11 square metres, on a room-only basis. Breakfast is available at the hotel for an extra charge if you want it.
Things to do nearby
The Foundling Museum and Brunswick Centre are both a couple of minutes' walk, and Tavistock Square gives you a green spot to pause. Russell Square and the British Museum are within ten minutes on foot. From King's Cross St Pancras you can reach almost any part of the city by tube, and major sights such as Big Ben sit a short ride south.
Best for
This works well for two travellers who want a central base at a fair price and don't mind a smaller room. It suits people who plan to be out exploring most of the day and value quick transport links over hotel frills.
