Ambassadors Bloomsbury is a smart, centrally-located hotel and restaurant, right in the heart of bustling Bloomsbury, just a stone's throw from Euston and Kings Cross stations. The historic building has a stunning facade, with column-flanked entrance and huge windows. Inside, clean lines, polished wood finishes and boutique furniture feel fitting for both business people and those coming to London to celebrate something special.
If looking for somewhere to dine in central London, Ambassadors Bloomsbury has an in-house restaurant, Number Twelve, which offers a menu of Italian fusion cuisine, carefully curated by chefs using a seleciton of fresh, seasonal produce hand-selected from local suppliers and artisans, with all dishes made lovingly on-site. The a la carte menu follows a traditional three-course format, boasting some extra-special signature dishes. For example, to start, the braised beef rib and vegetable minestrone soup deserves your attention, as does the Devonshire crab arancini with spiced apple fennel on the side.
For mains, we like the sound of the black ink risotto with squid ink, chorizo, king prawns and octopus, as well as the beer battered cod with pea puree, hand-cut chips, tartar sauce and lemon, which is an instant classic. If you're in the mood for some comfort food, though, the hearty burgers come with grass-fed gourmet beef pattys, while the grill selection includes Scottish salmon, corn-fed chicken and 21 day aged steaks. Finally, top it all off with dessert such as the banana tart with butterscotch sauce and rum and raisin ice cream.
Luckily for those celebrating a special occasion, the team welcomes private dining bookings and have a function room that can seat from 10 to 220 guests, catering for everything from weddings to office parties. Simply get in touch with the team to discuss your needs and they'll be sure to help. Plus, with plenty of bedrooms ready to book, your guests or colleagues also have the options of staying in the middle of the action.
