Additional Location Information

The Area
London Bridge & Borough

Is there a more iconic London image than that of Tower Bridge? Together with the neighbouring London Bridge, these link London’s financial hub on the northern bank, rather selfishly dubbed ‘The City’, to the district of Southwark below. To the south, the jagged architectural masterpiece of the Shard, the European Union’s tallest building, towers over the otherwise flat and homely Borough, itself served by the bustling Borough Market, where food vendors jostle amiably to proffer a take-away meal to be enjoyed sitting in the grounds of Southwark Cathedral. Walking along the river one can take in the Southbank at leisure, from the imposing Tate Modern or sobering Imperial War Museum, to HMS Belfast and the Shakespeare Globe Theatre, or possibly all of the above from atop the London Eye! These loftier sights are offset by the quaint pleasures of browsing the pop-up book fair under Waterloo Bridge or taking in a street performance by the River Thames. Being so central is a real delight.

Additional notes from owner

This property rents from £195 per night, plus a one-off fee of £199 for cleaning and taxes.

Subject to a 5 night minimum, rentals can be for any number of nights.

  Spacious, elegant, clean & comfortable

  We stayed at the Wireworks apartment last week with our college-aged son and agree with the comments others have posted. The apartment has a nice balcony with views of the neighborhood, the training facilty for the London Fire Brigage (it was fascinating to watch 20 trainees practicing putting out fires!), a soccer field, and the London Eye. We appreciated the cleanliness, space, and comfort of the apartment. It is a bit out of the way (about a 10 minute walk to Southwark) but one block from the double-decker city busses that can easily take you anywhere in London. Overall we were very happy with our accomodation choice!

  We love contemporary architecture and this is a smart and stylish 'penthouse' in a great part of London. The space is very generous, and nicely appointed. There are two small terraces with wonderful views to the 'Eye' and the 'Shard'. Saturday morning make sure to start at the Burrough Market and bring back your bounty to the apartment for a delicious brunch.

  Amazing views

  Left on 01/26/2012 for a stay in December 2011
  
  

  Ideally located within walking distance of central London. We stayed there over New Year and had fabulous uninterrupted views from the London Eye (and fireworks) to the 'Gherkin' and round to the 'Shard of Glass'. Borough Market is so close and a must-do. Tate Modern is barely a ten minute walk too. Despite the proximity to so much it was remarkably quiet. The street parking was free over the weekend. The flat itself is wonderfully spacious, modern, well-equipped and felt very safe. It comfortably accommodated the four of us and this made for a very relaxing stay. Totally recommended.

  Good view and location

  Left on 12/15/2011 for a stay in December 2011
  
  

  Nice modern well furnished flat in a very good location close to the river. View to London eye in one direction and Shard in the other.
  
  London Bridge station/tube and Borough tube both 10 minutes walk.
  
  Area is quiet with grocery shop and chippy close and short walk to Borough Market which has excellent pubs/restaurants.
  
  There is some building work going on in the area as the this part of London is being re-developed.
  
  I plan to stay here again next time I am in London.
