Photos and Description of the London vacation apartment rental Apartment with terrace in London's centre. Walk to Covent Garden & theatres.

MINIMUM 5 nights, max two guests. Recently refurbished, interior designed, Soho W1 apartment with private terrace in Zone 1.

You can get an idea of our quality by looking at the many reviews on our Barcelona apartment (p3838 or 3838). 37 inch LCD TV, free Wi-Fi internet, phone, original artwork, large shower, fully equipped kitchen. Light, large lounge looking out onto large terrace. It is on the top (4th) floor with no lift, facing the rear with no noise from the busy street below.

great location, great apartment

BRC Berkeley, CA, United States
Review Submitted: January 8, 2010 Date of Stay: December 2009
We loved staying here - great apartment, clean, everything worked really well, well stocked with kitchen items, nice bathroom, bedroom, living room, balcony was too cold to use in Dec/Jan, but would be great at other times, and in a great neighborhood - close to theaters, with good (and even healthy) late night food/restaurants nearby. A bustling local environment, and still very quiet up in the apartment. A lot of flights of stairs to get to it (tough on me as I was on crutches) but worth every step!

A fantastic apartment in a buzzing location!

rebelfocus Ireland
Review Submitted: January 5, 2010 Date of Stay: December 2009
We stayed in the apartment for a week over the Christmas period and really enjoyed our time there. The apartment itself is beautiful designed, modern and efficient yet warm and comfortable. An interior designer has obviously been commissioned as there are LED mood lights built into the walls, bathroom tiling, window sills etc. It's very subtle but really makes the space feel very welcoming. The furniture is very good quality and comfortable and the double bed has a good quality mattress up to hotel standard.

The bathroom is wonderful with a great shower. The kitchen is fully equipped with every utensil you could ever wish for, all very clean and modern with stainless steel doors. There was a brand new washing machine and tumble drawer which is very useful if you want to do some laundry during your stay. The entertainment systems are great with 2 flat-screen TVs and satellite as well as iPod dock. There is even a sizable safe for locking away valuables like laptops and cameras.

We were greeted by Michelle and her partner David when we arrived. Michelle is a very charming Londoner, bubbly and very helpful and David very warm and friendly. They were able to give us directions to nearby shops and helped us get settled etc.

The location is perfect if you want to be close to the west end. The nearest tube is just a couple of minutes walk away but the area itself is full of restaurants and shops so we hardly used public transport. The street is busy but the apartment is at the back of the building so is very quiet.

This apartment is a real gem and a perfect place to stay for a relaxing holiday.

Central stylish cosy apartment

RogTan Australia
Review Submitted: December 1, 2009 Date of Stay: November 2009
Centrally located modern apartment in central Soho. Close to numerous restaurants and West End theatre shows. Walking distance to central London. Well heated with plenty of home appliances including internet WiFi. Helpful owner met us on arrival and gave us a tour. Not for persons who cannot walk up 4 flights of stairs (no lift). Outside patio would be convenient but is affected by surrounding restaurant exhaust smells. Would certainly return again.

Superb!

MoodyB Tampa, FL, USA
Review Submitted: October 13, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
The flat is exactly as described here, strike that, it's even better!
The décor is very modern and done with taste and care.
Just about everything you can think of has been provided.
The private terrace is really superb AND believe it or not - quiet!

Robert provides a comprehensive guide to everything in the apartment as well as local restaurants Etc. which would be great for anyone not familiar with the area.

Speaking of the area, I don't think you can find a better situated place to stay. Soho is buzzing with great bars, restaurants and entertainment .
Old Compton St is also about halfway between Tottenham Court Rd and Leicester Sq, making for easy access to the Tube.

I will certainly be back for another stay on my next trip back home to London and well as recommending to friends.

12-Day HOLIDAY IN LONDON

Retired Canucks Ottawa, Ontario Canada
Review Submitted: September 8, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
The great stuff first - the BEST location in London if you like theatre, restaurants, shopping, night life - within 2 to 5 minutes walking distance of many theatres, museums, Covent Garden, Leicester Square, Piccadilly Circus, Trafalgar Square. I could go on and on.

Very updated apartment - stainless steel kitchen with great appliances - fantastic living room with comfy furniture, LCD TV - bathroom had the most relaxing huge shower - bedroom was smallish but had a comfortable queen-size bed, LCD TV & plenty of storage. But the terrace was the ultimate - the doors leading to the terrace opened fully to let cool breezes in (a must for summer travel) and the large terrace with beautiful foliage was a relaxing oasis.

On the down side, the 4-story walkup was tough on our old legs especially with our luggage (but thank God Robert was there to help us). We thought a door between the living and bedroom areas would have been better than the curtain especially for sound. There were two nights that neighbouring parties lasted long into the night and were a little too loud. But these are very minor complaints.

Of the 8 stays and 7 apartments we had in London, this topped them all. If we were younger, it would have been perfect. We only had to call once for help (when we locked ourselves out) and our host was there in no time to assist us.

Overall - we would say our London Holiday was a great hit!
