LOCATION:

Location, location, location! You won’t find better than this!

The apartment is in trendy Fitzrovia, in the heart of the West End, 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.

You won't get bored in the immediate vicinity. We have heaps of bars, restaurants, supermarkets and great transport links a few minutes away in Tottenham Court Road / Charlotte Street. There's some beautiful Georgian architecture in the area such as Fitzroy Square, a pedestrianised garden square. The gardens are open during the summer. It's a step from the apartment.

There is a good range of shops nearby and a huge choice of delicious restaurants and bars. Tourist London is easily accessible on foot or by tube. Several supermarkets are close by (including a good Sainsburys, Tescos, Marks and Spencers Food Hall and Waitrose).

GETTING AROUND:

Warren Street, Goodge Street and Euston Square tubes stations are within a 5 minute walk. Tottenham Court Road and St Pancras are within 10 minutes.

Being so central though, you can walk to all of tourist London. The British Museum is 10 minutes away. You've got Oxford Street / Soho very close by (a 10 minute walk), Covent Garden will take you about 15 minutes, Regent's Park about 10-15 minutes. Camden is a 5 minute bus ride. You can head in any direction and arrive somewhere interesting.

  Highly recommended

  Left on 05/01/2013 for a stay in March 2013
  
  

  I stayed in this apartment for 18 days on a visit to London in March as a solo female traveller. The apartment was perfectly located for my needs, being close to everything - walking distance to major attractions and close to my business connections. The apartment fulfilled all of my usual travel requirements - good security, quiet nights, great location, elevator (the apartment is on the top floor of a block). The agents were superb, meeting me on arrival to go over how things work, and responding to my questions. I will be staying there on my next visit to London.

  Wonderful location and host!

  Left on 03/10/2013 for a stay in March 2013
  
  

  The apartment is terrifically located in a hip and convenient area to all that London has to offer. Only one block off of Tottenham Court Road, it remains quiet, yet close enough to pubs, food, banks, and two tube stations.
  Although the property itself is a bit small for a family, it is well-appointed with a full bathroom, complete kitchen, one private bedroom and a pull-out sofa/bed in the main room. The heating units in the bedroom and main room are easy to operate and work extremely well. The apartment has a quaint patio outside of the main room that could be very useful in warmer weather. An elevator makes getting to the 7th floor location very easy and worry-free.
  Liz, the booking agent, was absolutely fantastic. We had an issue with PayPal in remitting payment, yet she was very understanding and patient until the issue was resolved, allowing us access to the property.
  My wife and I along with our 12-year old daughter stayed at the flat for 6 days and 5 nights. We especially enjoyed the short walk to Goodge Street Station to the south on Tottenham Court and Warren Street Station to the north. There were plenty of eateries along the way in each direction. We also easily walked to the British Museum from the apartment. I would say that if we weren't so used to our beds at home, then we probably wouldn't have minded the very thin mattresses on the beds in the apartment.
  All in all, we would definitely come back to stay at this apartment. The location, and Liz our gracious host, were two aspects of our trip that I am sure could not be matched in all of London.

  Owner

  It was a pleasure to host you. I'm glad you enjoyed your stay at our property.
  
  To pick up on a few points -
  
  Size: the floorplan in the photos shows the size of the property. With a full double bedroom and a separate living room with a sofabed, there is everything you'll need for a comfortable and excellent value stay for 3 people. If however you would like a larger property for your family, we have a 2-bed and a 3-bed property in the same building.
  
  Mattresses: I'm not quite sure what you mean. Usually our guests sleep very well. The mattress on the bed is a deep orthopaedic mattress. The sofabed has a mattress topper for added comfort (perhaps you didn't use this?)
  
  We hope to see you on a future trip.
  
  Kindly
  
  Liz

  A great base for exploring London

  Left on 03/03/2013 for a stay in February 2013
  
  

  We stayed 5 nights in February 2013 in this cosy and perfectly equipped apartment. The flat itself is very central, clan and quite. As outside were chilly winter temperatures, we were very happy to have an efficient heating system in the apartment and of course made use of the kitchen to prepare hot tea and coffee! We will surely try to book this apartment again when we will be back again in London - preferably in summer to enjoy the stunning terrace even more!

  Wanted to stay longer! Will be back!

  Left on 12/27/2012 for a stay in December 2012
  
  

  We really enjoyed our 4 night stay in this apartment! The location was perfect - 5 minute walk from Euston and we were inside - 5 minutes later we were back out and on the tube! Liz sent great directions and communicated quickly and clearly when needed. The apartment was spotless and well equipped, especially the kitchen - you could live there! (although a couple more towels and a bathmat would have been good...). Comfy bed as well. As smokers, we loved the terrace, which would be wonderful in summer! My worry was that we might be cold, but the heating was very efficient and we were toasty warm in December! Excellent value for money - we'll stay again!
