Russell Square is an elegant garden square in Bloomsbury, in the Borough of Camden. The Grade II listed gardens were laid out when the square was built in 1801 by the fifth Duke of Bedford. Russell Square is a major London landmark and has strong associations with many classic works of literature, such as Thackeray's 'Vanity Fair'. Today, Russell Square is near many major tourist attractions, including the British Museum and is a great place to stay with areas such as Mayfair, Soho and Covent Garden, just a stroll away.

There are many high-quality hotels in the area, making this a great base for any trip to London. If you are planning a stay in this part of London for work or for pleasure, then hiring a car from Enterprise Rent-A-Car to travel out of town, this branch will work well for you. The branch is located just off Russell Square itself, at 49 Woburn Place.

Pick up your car hire near your hotel, load in your luggage, then take off on your adventures. If it's more convenient you can do a one-way rental and drop your hire car back to a different branch, such as the airport, if you're flying back out. 

Do be aware that you will probably be subject to the congestion charge if driving in central London.
