Opened in 1930, the Cambridge Theatre is in London's, Covent Garden district, on the famed "Seven Dials" roundabout, where seven roads converge. This West End theater hosts open-ended runs of plays and musicals, housing shows such as "Fame" and "Chicago." Cambridge Theatre is within walking distance of Covent Garden hotels on Monmouth Street. These hotels are also a five-minute walk from the Covent Garden tube station.
The Radisson is on west side of the Seven Dials roundabout, opposite the Cambridge Theatre. This boutique hotel offers a tranquil ambience in the common areas and 151 guest rooms, which are furnished with cherry-wood furniture and Sicilian marble. The hotel is also eco-friendly, by using low-wattage bulbs. Other hotel features include a fitness center, currency exchange desk and a fine-dining restaurant, Dial, which serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. The restaurant also has a full-service bar. The hotel offers eight luxury suites that provide views of the Seven Dials thoroughfare. The bus stop on Shaftesbury Avenue is only a five-minute walk from the hotel, and provides access to the Soho and Cambridge Circus areas of London.
Although the unassuming green-white canopy at the front entrance resembles a grocery mart more than a hotel, the Covent Garden Hotel's lobby area has an elegant ambience with luxurious furnishings and draperies, while the guest rooms have antique furniture. Some of the guest rooms have four-poster beds, and all of them are soundproof. On-site dining is available at the hotel's Brasserie Max restaurant, and a 53-seat private movie theater is available for the exclusive use of the hotel's guests. This boutique hotel is a five-minute walk from the Cambridge Theatre, as well as the boutique shops and restaurants on Monmouth Street. St. James Park is only a 10-minute tax ride away. This recreation area offers walking paths, picnic areas and art exhibits at the Queen's Gallery.
The Seven Dials Hotel is at the northern end of Monmouth Road, and is a five-minute walk from the Cambridge Theatre. This hotel offers reasonable prices, in comparison to its Covent Garden counterparts. The hotel's sign resembles a pub sign, and the lobby area is small, but it gives you direct access to the guest rooms via a stairwell. Guest rooms are simple in design, with no artwork to speak of. Breakfast is included in the room rate, and is served in the breakfast room adjacent to the lobby.
The double-deck London bus stop on the High Holborn thoroughfare is less than five minutes from the hotel. The line runs to the Tottenham Court area of London. The hotel is also five minutes from the Mon Plaisir restaurant, a French bistro founded in the 1940s, making it one of London's oldest French restaurants.
