This hotel had friendly staff, unique historic charm, and the location was amazing. Right next to parks, and underground station, and what I can only describe as an open mixed use lot with lots of great dining- all short walking distance. The area felt clean and safe. The hotel rooms presented well and were clean. One of our rooms had a musty smell. The down stairs lobby, bar (great drink menu and vibe) and restaurant were fantastic. The hotel has multiple elevator shafts- there is little waiting when you're trying to go up or go down. Breakfast here was satisfying (American family) I would stay here again. read more

This place strikes that sweet spot between luxury and sanity that's increasingly rare in London hospitality. The structure reminds me of the Mandarin Oriental - elegant, well-designed, sophisticated - but without requiring you to mortgage your firstborn for a weekend stay. The restaurant and bar service was outstanding, and my initial front desk experience was exactly what you'd want from a quality hotel. Though I noticed the evening shift seemed to be running with the B-team, which isn't uncommon but worth noting if you're someone who notices these things. The rooms are genuinely impressive - well-appointed without being ostentatious, comfortable without feeling generic. It's the kind of space that makes you actually want to spend time in your room rather than just crash there between activities. Kimpton has always hit this particular sweet spot for me - reliable without being flashy, thoughtful without being precious. While our LA place is being renovated, I've been staying at their Westwood location and consistently love the service approach. They seem to understand that good hospitality is about anticipating needs without being intrusive. London takes it up a level, from the doormen to the front desk to the bar and restaurant--great service. This London location maintains that same philosophy while adding a distinctly British charm. Looking forward to returning - always a good sign when you're already planning your next visit before you've checked out. read more

Can't believe I forgot to review this place. I stayed here two years ago ( October/November 2023) . All of the staff was lovely . I booked the most economical room which was just under 300 USD I believe . It was a decent place to sleep but o definitely would love to come back to experience one of their larger suites . Overall the hotel particularly the main lobby area was gorgeous . I love the little perks that were thrown in with the room ( may or may not be available as a package or promotion) . I received breakfast as well as a free cocktail or two if I remember correctly . Truly a five star experience. read more

The Fitzroy London is a stunning five-star hotel that seamlessly blends elegance with a touch of vintage charm. The moment you step inside, you're greeted by a beautifully curated decor that reflects the hotel's rich history while offering modern luxury. The rooms are tastefully decorated, ensuring a comfortable and stylish retreat, and the entire property boasts impeccable cleanliness. I have stayed there 4x now this year and I remain thoroughly impressed by the outstanding service provided by the staff. They were attentive and genuinely eager to ensure a pleasant experience. The hotel features two excellent dining options, including a delightful café that serves delicious meals throughout the day. The 24-hour gym was a fantastic perk, offering plenty of equipment for a solid workout anytime. Additionally, its proximity to the tube made exploring the city incredibly convenient. Overall, a fantastic stay that I would highly recommend! Not to mention the Fitzroy is so pet friendly. PRO TIP: check out the pet menu for room service read more

What a fantastic property. Check in is personal and cheery, very refreshing to see employees who obviously love their job. Rooms are beautiful and well thought out with first class amenities. The bar is small but had a great vibe and the bar tenders mix some fantastic drinks with their own twists, definitely worth a visit. Fitz restaurant for breakfast was delicious, again the team members were on point and really looked after us. I met one of the maintenance team, a really nice gentleman who explained the history of the hotel and its connection to the designer of the Titanic! The Kimpton Fitzroy definitely is top of our list for future London stays, well done guys. read more

This was the most beautiful hotel I've ever stayed in. It's historic and was designed by Charles Fitzroy Doll, who was also the architect for the Titanic's dining room (and the restaurant Galvin's was the inspiration for the Titanic's). Feast your eyes on marble, big windows, original crown moldings -- they do not make hotels like this anymore. Through points I had free breakfast at their restaurants and I would recommend the service, selection and views at Galvin's over Burr & Co, which is more like a coffee/eatery. I also enjoyed high tea in the Palm Court. My room was on the small side, but since I was traveling solo, I was fine with the setup. The room did not have a separate closet for clothes, but rather a bar behind the bed to hang clothes. The bathroom was modern and updated with nice toiletry products. I really appreciated that though I was in a small room, it was cleaned every day and the staff paid attention to small details like replacing the complementary snacks. The location is in the historic Bloomsbury neighborhood, which is the definition of "chill, cool literary person" vibes. You're pretty close to Tavistock Square (where Virginia Woolf lived and there's a Gandhi memorial as well), as well as some fantastic indie bookstores, the British Museum, Sir John Soane's Museum. The neighborhood is a bit quieter at night than others (I've stayed in Mayfair and Leicester Square previously), however it is just steps away from the Piccadilly line, and easy walking to Covent Garden, Holborn, Soho, Seven Dials, Leicester Square, Oxford Street. So I found the calmer nighttime atmosphere appealing after being in the busy areas during the day. I would stay here again, I truly loved my stay. read more

Lovely hotel located right by Russell Square. I usually tend to lean towards smaller, boutique hotels but for as big as Kimpton Fitzroy is (334 rooms), I really had a very nice, personalized experience here. Property is gorgeous and the restaurant (Galvin's) and bar (Fitz's) were both excellent. I was telling friend that rarely do I give such accolades to a hotel bar but Fitz's was quite special, from the cocktails to service. I came back days later after check-out and the server (Akira?) still remembered me. That's how personal they are. They also offer a social hour from 5-6pm of free drinks for guests which is a nice touch. In all areas of the hotel, plenty of space to spread about, and the staff is kind and accommodating. Rooms are also a good size, including the bathroom. I accidentally left my blazer there upon departure but Mark from Security was so friendly and professional with helping me arrange pickup. All in all just a 5 star experience across the board, and will be back. read more

Had an outstanding holiday week at the Kimpton Fitzroy. Me and friend lucked out with smaller room (at much lower price) but got full amenities treatment of high end property. Stunning lobby, warm and courteous staff, just an exceptional experience all the way around. Arrived a bit early, but were treated like royalty and assigned rooms and given overview of property. Location, location, location. The best. Decided to do complimentary breakfast the first morning just to get bearings, and ended up at the Galvin every morning after that. Do not miss this perk! Uber was quite inexpensive and readily available. Also tube stop around the corner. Great trip and lovely memories. read more

I was just in awe walking up to this hotel. It was like I stepped back in time and was a fancy lady arriving by carriage on holiday. It's even more impressive inside with nice lobby to sit in. The front desk agent was helpful and promptly got us our key and said they had a "social hour" every day in one of their restaurants for people to mingle and have a free drink. There are a couple of restaurants, a bar, and there is a gym on the lower floor, so that's a lot of good amenities on property. The room itself was decent sized with a nice comfortable bed and a coffee maker and a teapot as well as fridge. They included water bottles and some snacks that were replaced daily when the room was made. The windows in my room were small though and high so couldn't see out of them but could open/close blinds for desired sunlight. Every time I re-entered and the doorman held the door and said hello, I felt welcome. I love the large size of the hotel and how nice the exterior and interior are. It's right at a nice park, Russell Square, and around the corner from an Underground station. The location was the best. It was definitely an expensive hotel, but it brought me joy and saved me time getting around because of where it was. It was worth the splurge. read more

Posted 4 Mar 2025. I stayed two nights at the Hotel. First of all, the Hotel is beautiful and there's lots to do all around it. Our stay was made even more comfortable with the help of the staff. In short, we had a minor maintenance issue with the room and customer relations (Ms. Roxanna) did a wonderful job by quickly addressing the issue, and at accommodating us with an alternate solution. The immediate response to the our issue and attention to detail made this stay very comfortable. In fact, because of her we were able to have much needed rest after our 12-hour flight. Thank you so much for everything! read more

This is a historic hotel with authentic old world charm Our room and toilet area were quite spacious. All the amenities were thought of and provided. The staff was very accommodating. Jack the doorman went out of his way to engage. His recommendations for the local pubs really enhanced out stay. I hope I can stay here again. read more

Beautiful architecture, lobby, and restaurants. It has a historic yet glamour feel. I stayed in the smallest room available (one twin size bed) but the bathroom was of decent size and had a full shower. The bath was also nicely renovated. Service was 3 star. The staff appeared very young and asking for simple requests was actually a quest. They had a hard time getting bottled water and I had to go through a few people to request smaller change (for tips). At 7AM, the coffee cart was completely disheveled from the night before. Beautiful hotel in a great location right by the tube and Russel Square. However, the service could be a bit more upscale to match. read more

Taking this down a notch based all of on my most recent stay. Here's the net: - Beautiful building to look at from the outside including a great lobby on the inside. - Marketing about the services / amenities that varies is misleading. The beautiful Palm Court is effectively never available during my 5-night stay when I wanted to go there. Burr & Co posts hours to 11pm, but is effectively closed by 1020pm when they do "last call." - After not being able to order a drink at Burr, I was sent over to Fitz's, the more glam bar, ordered a Negroni, and then was subsequently told by the bartender that I was not allowed to use my iPad while sitting at the bar. Outrageous on two levels: (1) literally never seen this in my life and (2) this is a hotel bar and a solo traveler can't read the news on their iPad whilst in it? My conclusion is this place seems to care more, and is better designed for, the college students who overwhelm Burr & Co and the local fancy types who frequenty Fitz's than the hotel guests who stay there, and certainly more than the solo business travelers amongst them who do. All that said, my TripAdvisor review of this place (similar to this one) got me a long phone call with Gunter the manager who did an exceptional job of listening to feedback and convincing me he really cares. He can't make the windows bigger (they're small in some rooms), but he can fix the other issues. So I will try it again it, I've notched this review back up from 3 stars to 4, and I'll be updating it after my next experience. read more

Ok. It's a five star hotel and delivers a five star experience. I don't know the price as I paid with hotel points but I do know it's not cheap. 100+ year old building. As soon as we checked in I ditched the t-shirt and put on a proper shirt. Very, very nice. Beautiful young lady from Albania checked us in and was very helpful even though it was her first week on the job. Well done. read more

Beautiful and classy hotel. We did not stay here but came inside to have a quick drink at the bar and look around. The lobby is beautiful, they have a small coffee shop with snacks on one side and the hotel bar/lobby on the other side. Beautiful fixtures and a well-laid out entry design. Staff were all warm and helpful and I would def. consider staying here next time I am in London. This is a great location within walking distance to the palace and several parks, shops and restaurants. It's right where you want to be. read more

Terrific hotel. Gracious and friendly service all-around, from the doormen, bellboys, check-in and concierge, room service, housekeeping and restaurant staff (at Burr's, Fitz's Bar and the Palm Court). I would give the staff 6 stars if I could. As this building is a historical landmark designed by the same architect as the Titantic (yes, that fateful ship), there sits in the stairwell on the 2nd story a small dragon statue whose twin unfortunately now sits at the bottom of the ocean. It highlights the interesting historical context of this building and also gives patrons appreciation to see how the renovations a few years ago have both preserved elements of the original building while creating a beautiful modern touches in the redesigned spaces. There is an excellent cafe on the first floor and terrific cocktail bar Fitz's (which I've reviewed separately). I didn't eat at the main restaurant but had afternoon tea in the Palm Court which was beautiful, quite empty around noon when we went, and very pleasant. My only dings would be the bathroom--in the standing shower, there is no raised ledge on the ground to keep the water inside the shower once you open the door, so whenever you shower a large puddle spills out all around the shower and toilet. Also the consistency of the hot water pressure in the sink was on and off, maybe bc it's an older building. But overall the stay was lovely and I'd stay there again. read more

The Galvin restaurant was my venue for lunch today in the Kimpton Fitzroy hotel. This hotel has recently been lavishly updated and restored to its Victorian splendour!

Oysters were excellent as was the cod! read more

I am a little late to posting my absolute love for this place since I stayed there last (April 2025 and before that time that as well) - but I have continued to strongly recommend it to all of my friends visiting London (and they have taken me up on my rec!!). I LOVE this hotel so much! It's one of my fave hotels in the world - and I know that is saying a lot. There is something so special about the combo of the Kimpton curation and the London grandeur hotel combo that makes this place extra special. The service is spectacular and so classy, from the check in to the check out. I love the charming bar with their "theory of color" hand crafted innovative cocktails too - super classy for a night with friends or just a solo nightcap... and the in-house breakfast in the mornings is abundant and fantastic. If you are solo, the single rooms tend to be more affordable, small but perfect - but also if traveling as a couple, the balcony views over Russell Square are super special -- basically - this is one of the best kept secrets of places to stay in London -- and I hope it continues to stay magical for all who are able to enjoy it! read more

I see positive reviews by other guests, and I envy them their experience. I agree completely that the hotel is beautiful. The facade is epic, even regal. The main entrance and stairway are a period movie waiting for a camera. In all, it is very striking, but the decorations are not the problem. Neither is the location, which is quite close to the tube stop and Russell Square and surrounded by much history both inside and outside the museum. Wonderful, but again, not the problem. The problem, at least to me, seemed to be either indifference or incompetence on the part of the staff or management. We arrived early and could not arrange any sort of early check-in. Perhaps it's not done, but guests falling asleep in lobby chairs for hours is not a good look. At least apologize and say you're looking for a solution. At least check in with the guests every two hours or so. The room, when it was finally ready - apparently at 3pm, and not a minute before - was lovely, but by then I didn't care. The throw pillows were artfully arranged, but I would have preferred another 15 minutes of sleep. A Super-8 motel with a room ready by 11am would've been a superior alternative, even if they didn't have the zodiac on their floor tiles. Likewise, coffee. For an international hotel to not have coffee or tea available in a common area before 8am is inexcusable. If you're up at 6:00, you can untangle the plugs and cords and make tea in your room or challenge yourself with the English version of a Keurig machine. You could order room service to bring you an eventual cup of coffee or you can wait until 7:30 or 8 or whenever you can find a begrudging server - good luck on a second cup btw. Best yet, do like I did and walk round the corner to the Pret Manger and drop the 5 and twenty for a couple cups and a pastry. It even arrives with a smile and a thank you. There were some folks who were standouts - genuine kindness, real smiles - but the hostility seemed endemic. Too many staff who can probably speak four languages but instead express their indifference without saying a word. I will not likely stay here again. I will not recommend this place to anyone, particularly at the price. I will regard all those who stay at this hotel as either misguided, or fortunate enough to not require anything beyond baseline competence on a very specific timetable. In short, my experience reflected badly on the hotel, the management, and IHG. It was very disappointing. Two stars, because the staircase really is lovely. read more

I would definitely stay here again. To start, you can't beat the location. Walking distance to an entire world of places and sites you want to experience. If you want to visit places further away, it is a short half block to the tube (Piccadilly line, which makes this a straight ride with no transfers from Heathrow), and 10 minute walk to Kings X train station. Staff is attentive. Ran out to help with my bags when they saw me coming up the steps. I got there around noon so my room wasn't ready, but they kept my bags and suggested several places nearby for a coffee. Had my bags in my room for me when I got back, not in a closet behind the desk. Gave this weary traveler good info on how to get breakfast in the morning (included with my room). Safety matters! The hotel is spacious with many facilities, restaurants, and places to relax on the first floor. The elevator up, however, is right in front of reception and you can't use it unless you have a floor key to activate it. Random people can't just wander the floors and knock on your door. I so appreciate that feature. They have a face mask policy in place and all the staff follow it. Guests mostly, not all - people are people. In general, though, I felt safe and taken care of. There is a gym! A good gym especially by hotel standards. What do I always say? We don't work out. We train - every day. And I was able to do that here easily. There was room to use my jump rope, too. Love it. No pool, sauna, or Jacuzzi. No bathtub in my room either. Just a little bummed at that. Probably could have paid more for a room with a bathtub, but I was kind of maxed out on my budget for the room I had. And no complaints! The bed was comfortable, the bathroom was clean and not cramped. There was a kettle so I could make tea or coffee, and they left some snacks that were appreciated. I slept just fine. The breakfast that was included was pretty good. Lots of choices, healthy and fresh. There was a real army of servers in the restaurant, though, and I think 80% of them were in training. I really wanted them to stop coming over to my table. It was awkward and in the morning I just want my coffee and to be left alone. If I want something I'll raise my hand. And the coffee situation, it just didn't work out. The first day they had regular brewed coffee, but after that when I would order a brewed coffee, they would say, "Okay, an Americano." No, no, no. I don't want that out of the machine. Just a brewed coffee. Most of the servers had trouble understanding the difference, I think. There was a little bit of a language barrier as the majority of them seemed to be workers from other parts of Europe. So after the first day the coffee situation was dire, but somehow I survived! At the other end of the hotel is the restaurant Burr & Co. For some reason they do coffee better over there. They also had a great menu with lots of vegetarian options. The bar, Fitz, was dark and had great cocktails, but again, the language barrier made it necessary to speak slowly and order precisely. No big deal. I appreciate when I don't have to use my halting language skills other than English. I can communicate in about 5 languages, but it isn't always pretty! I've rambled too long. In summation, this is a really good choice for several nights in London. Price, hospitality, comfort, convenience - are all on point. read more

Claire, the manager is fantastic to work with. We had an issue prior to check in and she sorted it out. - The rooms are well appointed, comfortable, clean and user-friendly. Check out the picture I posted. - I'm delighted with breakfast at Neptune (healthy and lots of options to choose from), the Fitz bar (amazing drinks!) and the cafe adjacent to the front desk. Will definitely return to this hotel next time we're in London. Check it out for yourselves. You will not be disappointed! read more

Staying at the Kimpton Fitzroy London was delightful. The staff is outstanding particularly Marco Russo , a young concierge who is professional, polite and personable. His restaurant recommendations were excellent, from simple to elegant, and a few last minute ones too. I especially recall him calling an authentic Italian family restaurant where his conversation began in Italian and concluded in English. He also assisted me with having confidential documents printed and delivered to my room. This is one young man who will go far in his career. Another shout out to Angela in Customer Relations for making things extra special. I look forward to staying there again in October and trying new restaurant recommendations. read more

Incredible hotel! We are IHG members and used our free reward nights at this hotel. I must admit that it was not our first option because it did not have a king size bed available during the nights we were staying but we went ahead and booked it either away. We were not disappointed! The hotel staff from the very beginning were excellent. The gentleman standing at the front doors immediately, without us asking, came over and asked if they could help grab our bags. We hadn't even gotten all of the bags out of the taxi yet when they were offering to help us. The front desk staff were energetic and very polite. They offered to help us figure out whether we could get room service in the morning or would be better off going down to the restaurant. The hotel itself was gorgeous! We truly felt as if we were in a five star hotel. read more

I have been a Kimpton groupie for many years and have had VIP status there almost every year for nearly a decade. Their values match mine - conservation, pet friendly, female empowerment, LGBTQ friendly. I have stayed at 24 Kimptons and the Fitzroy is my favorite so far. It's beautifully decorated in a gorgeous historic building, and it's in a convenient location walkable to local attractions and right around the corner from a Tube stop. The service is top flight, from the front desk to the concierges to the guest relations staff. We had good meals in all three restaurants, and the bar is divine. We were there for New Year's Eve and just stayed in The Palm Court at the hotel to ring in the new year. It's just that lovely and comfortable. They upgraded us to a room that was so nice we stayed in until about noon every day! This will be my London home from now on. Well done, Kimpton. read more

This is a very surreal hotel. Absolutely stunning architecture; small rooms, no place to put any toiletries, but what you'd expect from a historic property. Great bed; quiet stay. But - oh my God - the service is AWFUL to the point it ruined our week. We could easily get over the key system being down at check-in --- but there is not one restaurant with staff that notices you are there. And, when the do, they only pretend to care. "Have a seat, we'll bring a menu right over..." and they never do. You must go to the bar (around your non-existent server) to order ---and to pay if you ever want to leave. No one ever asks if you'd like anything else. The maid service didn't show, even after I went down and asked the front desk in person, and again via phone to housekeeping. The server in the bar didn't understand the word "Manhattan" (she had me write it down for her) only to expose my back-up order of a Sharedeney (Chardonnay). If you stay here - you will love the location - although its on the sleepy side of London - but expect to wait 20 minutes to be even noticed in the bar, and then a full 40 to get your first drink. The service was so awful, we really could not figure out the business model in any way to explain it. A boatload of apologetic staff running around... but all with hollow promises to take action. read more

gorgeous hotel, trendy yet classic vibes, mostly kind staff, but disorganized making my stay difficult and frustrating. upon arrival, i immediately fell in love with all of the details from the lobby to the room, but even though my colleague (who booked my stay) had called to confirm my reservation 3 times the two weeks before my arrival, my reservation was not "ready". i had to call my colleague for them to re-confirm i could check in. once the mistake was noticed, the receptionist was fantastic at correcting the mistake. the following day, i ordered room service after a long day at work and asked that the room be charged for the food. after the room service manager calling my room 3 times (each time i asked him to please charge my room and he responded with he would check with his manager) i had to go downstairs to the front desk to pay for my food. the receptionist (a different young lady) was again quick to correct the issue. the third day, the same thing happened with my food, which was frustrating. and that morning the hot water was out in my room after having worked through the precious days of my stay. of course, upon making the staff aware, they were quick to correct the issue. the hotel's coffee house also completely "forgot" my order and left me waiting an additional 10 minutes until they realized they forgot me. the room included a few complimentary items like chocolate bars and popcorn bags in addition to water, coffee and tea daily which was such a wonderful surprise. the furnishings were luxurious and the finished devine. overall, this hotel is still beautiful and the location is wonderful and maybe other people have had perfect stays but when you're coming in from out of town and exhausted, dealing with all of these hiccups upon arrival and throughout the stay takes away from the experience. as much as i enjoyed the visuals, i won't be returning on my next visit to London. read more
