ABOUT

Bloomsbury is a charming and historic part of Midtown, tucked within the borough of Camden. An affluent area, Bloomsbury boasts some of London’s finest period buildings and beautiful tree-lined squares. Considered by many as the literary capital of London, Bloomsbury has been home to many famous authors, and is the location of Bloomsbury Publishing (the publishing house that brought us Harry Potter) as well as the British Library. Bloomsbury also has a long history of academia, housing many universities, such as University College London (a Russell Group University) as well as world-leading medical institutions.

Despite its central location, Bloomsbury escapes the busy crowds of tourists found in its surrounding areas – making it an attractive place to live and to work. Whether you’re a start-up business, or relocating to expand your business, start your own story with a Bloomsbury office space of your own.
