For most leisure travelers, Heathrow is the only airport where the cost of taxi transfers are worth considering within most people's budgets. The exception to the rule perhaps being if you have a group or lots and lots of luggage. A private charter bus is worth considering for such groups.
A good first task is to identify precisely where your accommodation is in Bloomsbury. A lot of the accommodation in Bloomsbury is easily walked to from the underground stations at Holborn, Russell Square and Tottenham Court Road.

A good second investment in time is to understand the basic's of using London's public transport. You will waste a lot of money paying single fares for everything and when you are traveling around London you will need to purchase a transport pass of one kind or another. You will save yourself a lot of time and money purchasing the right pass before you get to your hotel.
Public transport passes in London can be complicated, especially if you have children so reading our Travelcard or Oyster Card page will pay dividends for a small investment in your time.
