The river bus travels from Canary Wharf to Westminster Pier or down river to Greenwich or to the futuristic Thames Barrier. Canary Wharf is nearby reached via the Thames Riverside walkway.

A Great time

David, Shona and family Hamilton, Scotland
Review Submitted: November 17, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
We had a great time in this lovely flat in London. it was clean and well equipped. We were worried about walking from the station in the evenings and reading another review settled our minds. It was quite safe and although we did encounter a crowd of youngsters one evening they were not a problem. There was a deli supermarket on the ground floor of the block which sold lovely fresh baguettes. There was also a very nice Italian restaurant in the opposite corner. This was very nice and worh a visit if returning home before eating in London. There was also a Tesco Express supermarket at the traffic lioghts at the top of the road. This was a short enough walk to carry several bags. Travelling around was easy - we bought daily travel cards at £5.60 each (£1 for under 16's) and this met all of our travel needs. You could see the station from the apparment window. We booked a flat rather than a hotel to give us the appropriate space as our children are now young teenagers. We all found it suited our needs as we could sit as a family in the evening if we were back early or have a longer lie if we had been out late. The booking process was very easy and our deposit returned within 10 days of returning home. In summary we would all recommend this flat to anyone wanting a comfortable, clean base to explore London and for our needs this was much more suitable than a hotel.

100% Recommendation!

Bucs Fan Pinellas Park, Florida, USA
Review Submitted: November 6, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. The accommodations were very clean and comfortable and perfectly located. The Limehouse train station was just 2 short blocks away and provided easy access to anywhere in London. The cafe and restaurants located within the property also provided convenience and a great option for dining in or out. The neighborhood was very safe; we walked down to the river and local pubs a couple times and never had a problem. Finding a great place to stay can be challenging when you are visiting another country, but we found this apartment perfectly fit all our needs and Christine was very pleasant to work with! You have my 100% recommendation!

Our London Home Away from Home

Rich & Jackie Northern Illinois
Review Submitted: June 2, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
My husband and I and our 2 twentyish sons stayed here for 8 days in May, 2009. We found the apartment to be clean, well-stocked and very convenient to transportation. The DLR station is a block away and we could see the station from our balcony. The DLR gives access to the tube and all of London.

It was so nice to come "home" to after a long day of site-seeing and be able to relax, watch tv, cook if we wanted. The washer-dryer allowed us to pack light and only take carry-ons. I don't think four adults traveling together (whether family of friends) could find a more affordable living arrangement than this by half. The beds were comfortable and with 2 bathrooms, there was never a line! The building is locked 24 hours a day and the concierge was always on duty to answer questions.

There are several nice restaurants close by (we enjoyed Gordon Ramsey's "The Narrow" and "Figa"), and at least 2 convenience stores within a block for anything you need.

Christine, the owner, was easy to communicate with and replied quickly to any questions we had. She stocked the apartment with lots of maps, brochures, and information about London. We wouldn't hesitate to use this apartment again if we are lucky enough to be able to return to London.
