Near Tottenham Court Road StationGoogle MapsVery good solution for those who seek not to go with their luggage along their day. Unfortunately they're not so well-organized with the check out procedure and no one checked to whom they give the bug, additionally it stays at the store front until they manage to transfer to the storage, which is not rhe best... lock your luggage and don't leave anything expensive and you would be ok
Ido Keinan
Near Tottenham Court Road StationGoogle MapsGood service but should be better explained that location is at a store with it's name

Near British MuseumGoogle MapsThe experience was great ONCE I located the store. There was literally no sign anywhere that the store was also doubling as a bounce luggage store. Good: App booking experience Can improve: helping locate the store doubling as a Bounce storage location.

Near British MuseumGoogle MapsUsed Bounce for the first time at Museum Shop and the experience was fantastic. The app booking was seamless, the location was exact, and the drop-off and collection process was completely hassle-free. Such a cost-effective and smooth service—I will definitely use it over and over again and highly recommend it!

Holborn Station Great Queen StreetGoogle MapsI left my phone there by accident when I left and the guy ran after me - very grateful!
Morgan Stouffer
Holborn Station Great Queen StreetGoogle MapsSkeptical at first as we had never used this service and the drop off location didn't look like it could handle two large bike boxes. Everything went flawless. The staff were very friendly and offered advice for restaurants and sightseeing. Couldn't be happier. We highly recommend Bounce and All Good Convenience Store for short term storage. 👍👍

Quiq LeMonde
Museum CornerGoogle MapsThe storage was ok. We had to take a picture of our luggage which was weird since at other Bounce locations this didn't happen (we usually received numered tags for our luggage). We picked up our luggage and everything was in order.

Get the most out of your time in British Museum
Left luggage near the British Museum
Recommended for: tourists, event attendees, locals.
The British Museum area gets busy, and there’s so much to see. Dragging a suitcase around Bloomsbury isn’t much fun, so leave your bags nearby before exploring. You’ll find a shop on Museum Street, just 3 mins from the museum. It opens early, so you can drop your things before the doors even open, then take your time in the galleries without planning around a suitcase. With several storage spots in the area, you can choose one that works for where you’re heading next. Coming from Tottenham Court Road? Another Great Russell Street location lets you leave your bags on the way. Once your visit is done, Covent Garden is an easy walk if you have time for a show or a bite to eat. Check the opening hours for your chosen spot, then collect your bags when you’re ready.
Bag storage in Bloomsbury for work and travel
Recommended for: business travelers, commuters and transit passengers.
With Bloomsbury’s constant flow of meetings and day trips, there’s never enough room for bags at work or in the pub. Got a client call in Holborn? Or maybe you just need to drop your things before a train at King’s Cross. A Bloomsbury Street shop is open 24/7 and close to the museum and local offices, so it works well for early arrivals, late departures, and Sundays. Just pop in, leave your suitcase or laptop bag, and head to your meeting or settle into a café without keeping one eye on your luggage. You can stay in the area between appointments instead of carrying everything to the next stop. Come back when your plans are finished. Simple, no stress, and no rush to squeeze everything around a fixed closing time.
Leave your bags before visiting Sir John Soane’s Museum
Recommended for: tourists, day trippers.
Thinking of visiting Sir John Soane’s Museum after the British Museum? Visitors are asked not to bring luggage or large bags. A Great Queen Street storage partner gives you somewhere to leave your suitcase near Holborn before heading to Lincoln’s Inn Fields. You can take your time inside without going back to your hotel first. Once you’re done, stop for lunch or a coffee nearby, then collect your bag and carry on with your day. Holborn Station is a short walk from the drop-off if you’re travelling on afterwards. It’s a handy way to fit in another visit before your next train without dragging a case through both museums.
