Jill,

If it's any help, the Thistle web site (www.thistlehotels.co.uk)
has 0800 18 17 16 as a UK reservations number for the Bloomsbury.

I seem to recall that bloomsbury at thistlehotels.co.uk is the email
address, but I can't confirm that on the site, so you should probably
call anyway.

On this theme, from prior con experience, hotels frequently want
a down payment on meeting space ;-(

What kind of meeting space were we looking for?  ...and for what dates?
