Apartment vacation rentals in Islington

This was a great space for a group of three of us who were in town for a wedding weekend. Having a cozy place to stay with ironing board, hair dryer, and everything else we needed was so great. Option to drop bags a couple hours before check in was also a huge help.

A wonderful stay—highly recommended. Communication with the host was excellent from start to finish. The apartment is even nicer than it looks in the photos—bright, peaceful, and surprisingly spacious, in part due to the extraordinarily high ceilings. It was spotlessly clean, and the space has been lovingly renovated, with many of the original features of the Victorian building thoughtfully restored. It’s very quiet, with huge sash windows that let in beautiful natural light throughout the day. The kitchen is well equipped for simple meals, and the fancy coffee machine was a real treat. I’d definitely stay here again—if only to spend more time with the amazing books on the shelves or finally learn to play the piano.

The apartment was bright and modern, with a warm, cozy atmosphere , exactly as shown in the pictures. The location was perfect – right by the canal and very central. Both the bus stop and the subway station were just a few minutes' walk away, which made getting around super easy. Perfect for our London trip! Monique was incredibly kind and helpful, always quick to respond and very accommodating. Highly recommended! :)

Great location, quiet flat. Good value. We would return. Thank you!

The flat was exactly as described and was percent to a nights stay near Kings Cross. Plenty of space in the flat and everything you could need. Very quiet when we were there too. Handy chat with all the instructions and photos too. Quick 5 minute walk to Exmouth Market with lots of great pubs and restaurants.

This is indeed a “gem” of a location. The flat itself is compact but very comfortable for two people and had everything we needed. It is clear that a lot of care was put into renovating and decorating this flat and there are many thoughtful touches (e.g. water filter in fridge, heated towel rack, plush towels, interesting London coffee table books etc.) There was more storage space than any other Airbnb I’ve been in! The kitchenette is fully equipped and included a Nespresso maker (pods are provided) and milk frother so I was able to make cappuccinos each morning. The elevator was a luxury, but be aware that there is a short flight of stairs to reach the lift and then another to reach the flat. Thank you to host Chris and owner Anthony for their prompt communication and hospitality. They even provided a bottle of wine and chocolates! We were also able to drop off our luggage prior to check in, which was a huge help. We would happily stay here again!

The apartment is right in the heart of the Shoreditch precinct so great for nighttime activities and easy to get around during the day. It is very spacious and has everything needed. I’ll be looking this up again next visit.

We loved our stay. Spacious apartment, quiet area, short walk to 141 bus, 9 minute walk to Haggerston above ground train. Off licence on the corner and Tesco express a short walk away. Spotless. Comfy bed and pillows. Have booked to stay again on our return to London.

Easily the best experience I have had on AirBnB. The apartment is located in a lovely area of London in the quiet leafy streets of Islington close to great cafes/bars/delis which are nice to stroll around. The flat is bright, spotless and clean, tastefully decorated with well designed furniture and art and beautiful crystals throughout creating a calm environment. The private courtyard was lovely for lunches and dinners outside. The bedroom is next to the courtyard so it’s lovely and quiet for a good nights sleep. Francesca was a great host, the small touches she did for us was really thoughtful, communication was great throughout and the recommendations on the local area was really helpful. We will definitely try and stay here again next time we’re in London.

My partner and I left Kate's place happy. Being within walking distance of Kings Cross Station and Eurostar was a big advantage for us. The apartment was on the first floor, it was very clean and tidy, and there was everything I needed in the apartment. There is also a swimming pool very close to the flat and very cheap, also there are supermarkets, cafes and restaurants very close to the apartment. Sam was very helpful and responded quickly. We definitely recommend it.

Clemence was always quick and clear in her responses, which made communication really easy and reassuring. The apartment was exactly as described and shown in the photos very clean, tidy, and comfortable. We especially appreciated how well equipped and cozy it felt. The location was perfect too, with easy access to shops, restaurants, and public transport. We had a wonderful stay!

Really stunning apartment, had a wonderful stay. Close to the underground and easy to walk to Emirates Stadium!

Lovely place, great location. Would def stay again.

Nice clean large flat with modern furnishings and a great host

A comfortable one bed flat in a wonderfully central location. Bedroom is fairly spacious, bed a decent size, and the living room/kitchen was clean and thankfully free of clutter. Quiet street, no noise from neighbours. Recommended.

Great place for a family of 4. Enough space for a couple of nights. Quiet street for a Saturday night.

Maggie’s place was fantastic—the perfect place for exploring Borough Market and beyond! The apartment was very clean and tidy. It was also beautifully decorated and such a relaxing place to unwind after our busy day out. The hot tub was a massive bonus—talk about luxury! Responses from the host(s) were prompt, friendly, and informative, answering any and all of my questions. We truly appreciated the effort Maggie & co put in to making our stay comfortable. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again! Thanks so much Maggie 🥰

We had a great stay at Emilia’s home in Greenwich. The location is excellent - close to everything and easy to get around. Just a heads-up: it's situated on the path of the London Fire Brigade, so you might hear sirens at night. Earplugs are a good idea if you're a light sleeper. That said, the apartment itself was clean, comfortable, and great value for money. Emilia was a thoughtful and responsive host. Would definitely recommend!

We were so fortunate to spend four weeks in March in this special place. It was very inviting, comfortable and clean. Simon is, indeed, a superhost. He is so nice, and made such an effort to make our stay pleasant and memorable. There were fresh roses on arrival, along with milk, water and some lovely snacks. Self-checkin was a breeze, so appreciated after a long flight. We didn't have to commit to a specific time which is always appreciated. He even offered to arrange a mid-stay cleaning, including a change of bed linens and towels, for a very reasonable fee. We took advantage of the offer, and it worked out very well. It was a treat to return at the end of the day to a fresh apartment. The neighborhood fantastic, beautiful and so walkable. Public transportation is very convenient, but we took advantage of the great weather and did lots of walking. We hope to return in the future.

Carol Anne and Kelly were great hosts, kind and helpful. The apartment was very nice, equipped with everything we needed and very comfortable. The location is excellent, very close to the subway and buses, the neighborhood is great. We had a great time, thaks a lot.

Our short stay at Debbie’s flat was so good! She let us pay £10 per each hour before check in time which was so worth it as we arrived with 4 kids in the morning so it was nice to check in around 11 and get our bags settled so we could spend the rest of the day exploring! The flat was so cute and free of clutter, comfortable, and such easy walking distance from Kings Cross so it was very easy to get around. The neighborhood was quiet and safe and we would honestly want to stay there again if we make our way back to London! Thank you so much for everything!

Great Stay! The place was cute, clean and in a great location. I appreciate your responsiveness during my stay and you provided easy to use directions for the check in and checkout process.

Felt right at home at Oded’s. Warm house, Hot shower, Great kitchen, Window view in the bedroom and kitchen are so nice, and my favourite spot was sitting at the kitchen table each morning for coffee. Everything you need and responsive host. I was fortunate to be able to do a long term stay over winter which I haven’t done before on airbnb, and am really grateful for the provisions and warmth in a well thought out spot. Great taste, Great house. Area was great too for working week and markets on Sunday. Thank you Oded

My wife and I were looking for an eight-day stay in a quiet neighborhood with easy access to the main sights. It was our first visit to London and we had never heard of Pimlico. We were delighted to find exactly the sort of neighborhood feel that we were hoping for, regular people going about their lives. This apartment was exactly what we had in mind! The check in process was very easy and Simone was great about communicating with us throughthe app. The living space is small, but comfortable. We don’t take elevators unless we have to so we were happy to have easy walk up access to the flat. The flat and neighborhood felt extremely safe. We are not night owls, so I can’t comment on the nightlife in the area. Because it is a small space, it does get a bit warm in the flat. The small air conditioner unit was very helpful to cool it down. Overall, the location was the biggest plus for us. Two minute walk to Pimlico underground station. Bus stops right in front of the apartment.
