    Perfect in the summer to just sit, chill out, read a book or whatever for a whole morning or afternoon in the sun :)

    An amazing place for quietness & calmness from the hustle and bustle of London! The Garden is so peaceful, you are oblivious of the traffic and whatever is going on outside of the square! Recommended

    Quaint little park in Holborn. Perfect for a relaxed morning listening to the hustle and bustle of the city.

    A short walk from some busy thoroughfares - and well worth the effort.

    Since you're enjoying the free pleasure of sitting Bloomsbury Square Gardens, why not visit the British Museum, 5 minutes away and also free?

    Best parking garage in this part of London. Beneath the Square, secure, reasonable price. Always loads of spaces when I go! Like it. Read more

    Hate how the entrances are only at the corners. There should be entrances on the sides too! ARRRGH.

    Way too close to Oxford St, so too busy and tourist-y for my taste.
