Luxury 1 Bedroom Apartment In London

SimonRating, 5 stars6 days ago
Excellent location for O2 events and site seeing in London. The location was not busy, quiet day and night, with a light city buzz of traffic and trains in the background. It felt very safe and secure. Flat was clean, tidy, and everything you'd expect it to be and more. Hosts were lovely and very accomadating. If you are driving in there is a bonus of free secure parking nearby, so do check with the host for availability before booking your own. Plenty of transport options also, DLR (Royal Victoria), Underground (Canning Town), IFS Cable Car over Thames, and Uber Clipper boats. If you do need to be other side of river e.g. O2, getting an Uber Clipper Boat, North Greenwich underground, would recommend the Cable Car there is 10 one-way journeys for £17 per person. If you're looking for a few nights in London, I would definitely recommend this.

Thank you Jodie and Lee for a great stay. The instructions on how to check in were perfect and the location was great for us. The apartment with 2 bed and 2 bath is fantastic when travelling with others and the lounge and kitchen was ample space. The mezzanine level was a bonus! We would choose to stay again. Thank you!

The Fairway Experience 2

Kasper StormRating, 5 stars1 month ago
A descent place, free street parking and perfect for those who aren’t going that much in to the city centre. Close to Elizabeth line (with bus), which makes it easy to come from anywhere. There’s also a few local pubs and restaurants in near vicinity only requiring five minutes by car. The flat it self were also just what we needed. It were tidy and nice, with all facilities one needs.

Navigation Cottage Luxury on the Historic Sea Lock

MaryRating, 5 stars3 months ago
What a beautiful place to stay - right next to a nature reserve, with the oyster catchers and curlews calling at night and wildlife wandering into the garden. But also very close to pubs, coffee shop and the sea. Great if you like birds, wildlife and peace and quiet.

Unique Wedge Shaped Seaside Beach House

LeanneRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had a great night at the wedge house. It’s a very cool quirky little house. Brilliant location for Adventure Island. Not the hosts fault but the street itself is quite run down and we had to listen to the boy racer cars all evening. But didn’t take away from the stay because us and the kids had a great time. Ria was very helpful as a host and was so kind to put up balloons and banners for us for my daughter’s birthday. I would definitely recommend for a trip to Southend.

Stunning Cottage in the Heart of Old Leigh

PriscillaRating, 5 stars5 days ago
Wonderful stay in a lovely location. We stayed during the week so it was quieter which was good as my dog was with me and can be reactive but did surprisingly well. Being in old Leigh was lovely and right by the beach. I found parking really easy in the area and not expensive. Loved my stay and would definitely recommend.

Spacious ExCel Londom 3 Bedroom Apartment

JulieRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
This apartment is really lovely. Location is excellent, near Elizabeth Line and DLR. It is spacious, light, clean and the beds were very comfy - even the generous sofa bed. There are shops nearby for groceries and the Lebanese restaurant under the apartment is excellent. Adeil was very helpful and responsive to messages and I'd highly recommend this apartment. We'll be back.

Beautiful City Skyline & Waterside View

신원Rating, 5 stars1 month ago
Very amazing place. Made our trip perfect. I can't just talk like a chat. 1. Location The first place on my long trip was in the heart of London. When this was London, I found another London in the second home. I thought it was all about London's wonderful old-fashioned buildings, but I could see the future of London's new, new skyscrapers and modern buildings. The very beautiful view of London from the high floor and the twinkling lights at night are very romantic And, the train is just 1 minute away, so you can go to the center of the city in 15 to 20 minutes. Also, there is a grocery store on the first floor, so you can shop very conveniently. 2. Inside The interior is really spacious, relaxing, and has everything. It has a very comfortable and comfortable bed, a spacious and clean bathroom with a bathtub, a microwave air fryer, and a dish dryer, and all the condiments and even delicious cocoa. It was stable and very convenient, and it increased the satisfaction of the trip. Above all, the host is the best. When I had a little problem, he handled things so reliably. I am a skilled and peaceful assistant. This place was a great trip to make my trip enjoyable. I was able to understand London widely at Canary Wharf, which is close to 2 stops.

The Studio

SarahRating, 5 stars3 days ago
Just returned from a lovely 2 nights at Michaels place. As others have said the location is great as it's on the high street and only a few minutes to the lovely Frinton beach. Check in was easy and there is parking at the rear of the downstairs shop. It was really hot and Michael arranged a fan to try to cool us down, he was available for any queries we had, Michael and his partner were really accommodating hosts. The studio was really clean and is very pared back and stylish, would recommend for a trip to Frinton and would try to get to the downstairs weekend bar next time .
