About The British Museum
The British Museum is Bloomsbury's crown jewel — the Great Court, the Rosetta Stone and galleries spanning human history, free to enter and endlessly absorbing. The surrounding streets are handsome Georgian squares, literary pubs and independent bookshops, with the West End, Covent Garden and the British Library all within a short walk. Tottenham Court Road, Holborn and Russell Square stations ring the museum, so the whole city is minutes away. Staying nearby means beating the queues for a blockbuster exhibition and wandering back for more between other sights.
