Stayed 6 nights and have nothing negative to note! Location is fantastic. Easy to walk to many places plus convenient public transit access. Tonnes of restaurants, cafes, shopping nearby. Room was large and comfortable. Bed was super comfy. Has a coffee maker and fridge. TV and WiFi worked super. There is some street noise, but I am used to big cities so it didn't bother me at all. Highly recommend and would definitely return.

My husband and I stayed here for two nights on the first leg of our honeymoon. We loved the Morton Hotel because of its location, the great rooms, and an amazing staff. The staff was amazing at making sure our room was ready early for us - which was a lifesaver after our flight from the USA. Also, every staff member we met was kind, fun to be around, and had great advice for things to see and do around London. The rooms were great. The beds were comfortable and bathrooms were clean and modern. The location is what really sold me here. It is really conveniently located by two Underground stations that can get to any where you need to go. Every time we come to London in the future, we will definitely we staying here!

We loved our stay at the Morton and recommend it very highly to anyone looking for a conveniently-situated, elegant and friendly hotel in central London. Bloomsbury is a wonderful part of London and the hotel is very convenient for both tubes and buses. We loved the proximity to Russell Square (and other parks) and enjoyed all the nearby bookshops and restaurants. The hotel itself is beautifully decorated but always felt cosy and welcoming with extremely kind and helpful staff - nothing was too much trouble! Although situated on a busy corner, we found our room quiet and peaceful, and slept like babies every night. What a gem! Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Very pleasant hotel at a great location. The rooms (stayed at no. 37) are clean with a spacious bathroom. Windows can open a bit and the room was quiet. Staff was very friendly amd helpful. Breakfast is available a la carte. Various breakfast and lunch spots are a stone's throw away. The only complaint I have is that the temperature of the room was too high so we slept with the windows open. Bus and Underground are within a two minute walk. Great connections to airport, international railway and other underground connections. I would definitely recommend this hotel for a city trip to London.

We stayed at the Morton for the last night of our trip to London, and I wish we could have stayed a few extra nights! We arrived early, but our room was already prepared and we were able to check in early for no charge. The room was lovely, very clean with a large comfortable bed. Appreciated the thoughtful eco-friendly touches and cozy decor. The front desk was very helpful and booked an airport taxi for us first thing in the morning. The location was very walkable to nearby destinations like the British Museum and Russel Square Gardens. Would absolutely stay here again!

We stayed at the Morton Hotel for a week while we were visiting our granddaughter in London. The location was perfect for meeting her and visiting all of the locations we wanted to see. The hotel was cozy and the staff was exceptional. They helped us with travel accommodations to places to visit to best shopping locations. We truly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend the Morton Hotel to our friends and family visiting London.

I can't say enough about how wonderful my stay at the Morton Hotel was. The hotel is very clean and located super close to the underground and bus stops. Super friendly, helpful staff including Mimi who is delightful. Housekeepers were on point and the place looked beautiful every night when I came home. It's in a busy part of London, but street noise is minimal while trying to sleep but earplugs are available in the end tables if need be. I researched the heck out of where to stay while visiting as this is my first trip abroad and I am positive I made the right choice.

My wife and I spent 3 nights at the Morton earlier in April and couldn’t be happier with the property or with the Staff. Mimi and the entire staff made our stay enjoyable and went out of their way to ensure we enjoyed our visit. Will definitely stay there again any time we are in London. Loved it

The hotel is in a great location near Russell Square, nice area to walk around in, lots of good restaurants nearby and our family walked to the theater comfortably. The staff were remarkable. I haven't had a front desk person orient and welcome me to their space as well as the night staff did upon my arrival. The security was very good as well. Our room was a two bedroom and it was spacious, well organized and made us regret not staying longer. It was filled with snacks and drinks that we were encouraged to enjoy. The room was comfortable with great amenities. We used The Library (a place to hang out, have a drink or eat breakfast) and it was a cozy place, also filled with great staff. I would stay again if I had any chance.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Morton Hotel. It is near busy Russell Square, but quiet, nonetheless. Clean and very eco-friendly. Our room was very comfortable with a sleep-friendly bed and non-cramped bathroom. The place was equipped with a hair dryer, iron and ironing board. To us, our favorite part of the hotel was the front desk/lobby/lounge, The Library. A calming room to enjoy a breakfast (we became big fans of their porridge) or a night cap. Special kudos to Aytul and Mimi for their cheery service and good humor. We would definitely stay here again.
