The Academy - Small Luxury Hotels of the World  

In Bloomsbury just off London’s West End, a short walk from the city centre and institutions like the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, Birkbeck and The Building Centre. A luxury boutique hotel formed from five elegant Georgian townhouses and a Small Luxury Hotels property.

Champalimaud Design has fused subtle Regency touches with contemporary lines to create a modern city retreat. Expect winding staircases, high ceilings, tall sash windows and neutral colour schemes. Rooms come with a shower, TV, mini-bar, bathrobe and slippers, and mornings start well with light pouring through those sash windows and a hearty breakfast in The Refectory.

On-site bar and restaurant, a dedicated Refectory for breakfast, a gym and a quiet library. Concierge services, laundry/dry cleaning, ironing and safe-deposit boxes are available. Tour assistance and transfer arrangements are offered, and free Wi‑Fi keeps you connected.

Business centre and event facilities for meetings and small conferences. Free Wi‑Fi (high-speed) and on-site support for business travellers.

Start the day with a hearty breakfast in The Refectory. The hotel also has a restaurant and a bar for evening drinks before an outing to the West End.
