Beautiful Modern 3 Bed/2 Bath, Trendy Fitzrovia W1  

Description from the owner

This spacious (66 sq m) just redecorated heart of Central London apartment provides enjoyable and comfortable accommodation. The property is in excellent condition and is offered fully furnished in a contemporary style.

The property is on the fifth floor (with lift) and is set out over one floor. There is woodstrip laminate flooring throughout and very good natural light.

Two double bedrooms are at the rear of the building (so particularly quiet for sleeping) and overlook the local landmark, the impressive BT Tower. The master bedroom (2.89m x 4.19m) has a full ensuite with full-sized bath, shower unit, handbasin and WC. In additi...on, there is a good sized third bedroom (2.88m x 2.95m) with a single bed and a recently purchased Ikea sofa bed. Each bedroom is a light and bright room with a comfortable bed with Egyptian cotton sheets. External noise levels are low.

Off the hallway, there is a family bathroom with full-sized bath, shower, handbasin, heated towel rail and WC.

The hallway leads to the large living room, which has good quality furnishings, including two comfortable sofas, a large flat-screen TV, freeview, dining table and chairs. The large double-aspect picture windows overlook a pleasant tree-lined street.

The separate kitchen has a plenty of cupboard space and a full range of integrated appliances including dishwasher and washer/dryer. The separate fridge and freezer both have plenty of storage space. Kitchen utensils and a coffee machine are provided.

This is great opportunity to stay in a smart, attractive property in a super and safe area. The apartment is in a secure, recently renovated, quiet block with 43 flats in Fitzrovia, W1, bordering Fitzroy Square.

Fitzrovia is in the heart of the West End. It's a super central location with a villagey feel and Georgian architecture. The area was once home to such writers as Virginia Woolf, George Bernard Shaw and Arthur Rimbaud. Today it is a popular and lively neighbourhood with a residential and business mix. The numerous media companies based in the area feed into a trendy and vibrant buzz. There is a good range of shops and a huge choice of delicious restaurants and bars.

Tourist London is easily accessible on foot or by tube. All Central London museums, including the British Museum, are a walk away. Warren Street, Euston Square, Goodge Street and Tottenham Court Road tubes are close by. Regent’s Park, Covent Garden and Oxford Circus are within a 10-minute walk. The City is a 20 minute door-to-door tube journey.

Several supermarkets are close by (including a good Sainsburys, Tescos, Marks and Spencers Food Hall, Waitrose and Plant Organic)Read more

  Comfortable and great location for a family

  Left on 04/24/2013 for a stay in April 2013
  
  

  This flat in north-central London is very nice for a family or two families together. It is very comfortable with a well-appointed kitchen. It is centrally located to bus, subway (tube), national rail service and taxi transport. Also many types of restaurants and food stores are very close by. It's even within easy wallking distance of the world famous British Museum. The flat screen TV and the free Wi-Fi are also big pluses. The rental details are very professionally handled as well.

  Living in London

  Left on 04/13/2013 for a stay in January 2012
  
  

  We had a wonderful stay in this apartment. Traveling with a teenager and having a separate bedroom for her was brilliant. Not to mention Internet access.
  Plent of room, very comfortable and so close to everything. Was a taste of London living. The kitchen is well equipped and 2 bathrooms !! Oxford street shops a a quick tube ride ( we often walked) and everything we wanted to see is avail from there.
  There is a small but very useful lift for you and your luggage and the owners are fantastic. Friendly and helpful. A very easy holiday stay. We were there during the off peak and the price was so much better value than a hotel.
  Highly recommend and would definitely stay again!
  Thanks Liz

  Nice apartment - Great location

  Left on 03/19/2013 for a stay in March 2013
  
  

  We just returned from a lovely week in London and found this apartment to be perfect for our needs. The location is good. Close to several Tube stops and within a few few blocks of several nice restaurants. The apartment is in a secured building, beds were comfortable, kitchen had everything we needed. Being next to the BT Tower, which sticks up conspicuously in the skyline, it was also easy to find from anywhere around the area. If we make it back to London again, we would definitely be interested in staying here again.

  A nice week!

  Left on 02/25/2013 for a stay in February 2013
  
  

  Our family of 5 (including 3 teen girls) stayed at this Fitzrovia apartment for a week. We found it to be clean and simple. The location was very convient to the tube, grocery store, and a huge variety of cute and affordable casual restaurants.
  Liz from Lizard Properties was very efficient and helpful in every way. A very nice experience overall.

  Great Stay

  We stayed in this condo in November, and thought it was great. Location was close to the west end, and the underground. The condo has everything you will need, and the 2 bathrooms were very handy since there were 5 of us.

  All the comforts of home

  Left on 08/02/2012 for a stay in July 2012
  
  

  This flat was perfect for our family of 6 (2 adults, 2 teens and 2 under age 10). The location was great for touring with easy access to the tube or within walking distance of Regents Park or the British Museum. There was also a supermarket and lots of take-away restaurants, so eating at home and making picnic lunches was easy (we preferred eating at home with tired children to consider, but there are lots of restaurants for eating out too). The front bedroom was a little noisy at night, and the back bedrooms a little noisy in the morning, but not unreasonably so for a urban location. Liz was pleasant and efficient to deal with, and very helpful. We had a little trouble with the wi-fi, but my husband fixed it by hitting the "reset" button. Our family is unanimous that we want to stay here again!

  Great memories of this flat

  Left on 07/29/2012 for a stay in December 2011
  
  

  Our stay was over Christmas last year. It was a great apartment for my husband, myself and our son and daughter. It was cosy and comfortable. We found it very handy to transport and found many places we could walk to. We cooked a traditional Christmas dinner instead of going out to eat. The well-appointed kitchen enabled us to eat a lot of our meals in, rather than argue about where we would dine. It was roomy enough for 4 adults and we appreciated the efforts Liz made to ensure our stay was welcoming and enjoyable. I don't envisage another visit to London, but we wouldn't stay anywhere else if we did take another trip in the future.

  Great Stay

  Left on 07/15/2012 for a stay in June 2012
  
  

  We had a great stay at the flat. A short walk to the tube. The location is pretty convenient and there are a lot of restaurants and pubs nearby. Very Clean. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare breakfasts and assemble our take away meals.
  Special notes--
  The Sainsbury's is the larger grocery. Avoid the Tesco market.
  The combo washer and dryer has different cyles. Options 7 and 11 are the ones to use for normal light wash/dry or just dry. The dryer option for clothes in the drawer is too hot for synthetics. User the hanger option.
  If you turn of the power, it is 2 minutes before the door will open.

  What a great place for family of six! Very nice, clean location for family wishing to "live local" during our London stay. Close to tubes, restaurants, and grocery. Good amount of space. Enjoyed our stay very much. Liz was great in sending us info on things to do and recommendations for travel to sights outside of London. Thank you!

  The toilet in the ensuite was inclined to be smelly, and the smell seemed to come up through the drains. It was also hard to flush. The glass on the shower had evidence of mould on it.

  Response from Liz Lizard - 07/23/2012

  

  Liz Lizard

  Owner

  You can see that this guest had a positive experience because she gave a 4* review. I was very surprised by her comments in the review and of course I contacted her.
  
  She said "I thought the review was going to you rather than on the internet. Overall I thought the flat was pretty good but it was the couple with us who used the ensuite in question and I didn't get to use it myself. Do I just go on to the website to withdraw that?" - ie she was commenting on something that she hadn't seen and she would have liked to have deleted them but it's not that easy with this service.
  
  I'd like to reassure you that our intention is for you to have an excellent stay in London. We are on hand to assist and can always help guests with any issues or queries. If this guest had alerted me to her concerns, I would have had the problem resolved immediately for her.
  
  I have checked and checked again. There is no smell or mould in the bathroom. As you can see from the other reviews, our standards are high and we would never allow this to happen.
