Photos and Description of the London vacation apartment rental Bright, modern apartment with garden, sleeps 2-4

Close to London's historic heart, this very popular modern apartment is a five-minute walk from the Tower of the London, the River Thames and many of London's top tourist attractions. It is on a quiet, private street, but just a few minutes walk from a large supermarket, local shops and post office, bars and restaurants. Tower Hill tube station is 8-10 minutes walk away and public transport links are very good. The apartment was recently refurbished to the highest standards with a wall-mounted foldaway double bed and a double sofa bed - ideal for 2 people, but still comfortable for 4. The living room is light and spacious with digital TV and DVD. The bathroom has under-floor heating, a powerful shower and hairdryer; the kitchen is fully equipped with a refrigerator, oven, microwave and washing machine. The apartment has central heating and a garden with BBQ. All bedding is provided, as well as a welcome basket of groceries. We accept all credit and debit cards via Paypal.

Wapping is on the edge of London's financial heart, the City but even closer to the capital's most famous landmarks. The Tower of London and Tower Bridge are a short walk away and the nearby banks of the River Thames are dotted with some of Britain's oldest pubs. Charles Dickens set many of his novels in and around Wapping. River taxis stop here, taking visitors by boat east to Canary Wharf or west to the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben. The nearest Tube stations are Tower Hill and Shadwell (DLR). Liverpool Street, with a fast service to Stansted Airport, is a short bus ride away. Both City Airport and the Excel exhibition centre are easily reached by DLR from Shadwell. Walking is easy too, and most of London's attractions, such as St Paul's, the Tate Modern and the London Eye are a comfortable stroll away. Use these links to find out more about the area:

GREAT PLACE AND EXCELLENT VALUE FOR MONEY

Aussie couple Wagga Wagga Australia
Review Submitted: November 11, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
This small but compact apartment which is really ideal for two people was well presented and along with it's fully equiped kitchen and bathroom would suit any guests choosing to stay in London.
The foldout double bed was comfortable and was easily folded away to give your more space in the apartment.
The location is excellentm close to a supermarket, pubs, bus stop and underground. The nearby attractions are London Bridge and Tower of London both within walking distance.
We can recommend walking both sides of the Thames although a medium level of fitness would be required.
We would highly recommend this property and its location.

A perfect base for our London holiday

Brissy girl Brisbane, Australia
Review Submitted: January 8, 2009 Date of Stay: November 2008
My sister, daughter and I spent two idyllic weeks in London and were so happy to have found this lovely little apartment! Everything was as described and the studio was both clean and very well maintained. The shower was fine; the water pressure was quite sufficient. The fold down bed was very comfortable and the linen was clean and in good condition. We particularly enjoyed our walk to and from the apartment each day past the ornamental canal and St Katharine's Dock. A terrific supermarket, Waitrose, was a short walk away and the 100 bus was very useful. The compact kitchen was perfect for preparing meals, snacks etc. Linda was particularly helpful when we had trouble with the TV, a little problem which was easily fixed. We appreciated the bread, milk and wine - a nice touch. We would have no hesitation in returning to this little gem on our next trip to London and have already recommended it to friends who are planning a trip. Kate, Brisbane, Australia.
