Adorable! Stunning! & South Ken at it's best!

DebsG Northumberland
Review Submitted: November 16, 2009 Date of Stay: November 2009
If only clocks could be turned back....! I'd turn mine back to last Thurs evening to the moment I checked into this gorgeous apartment on Stanhope Gnds.
A delightful apartment which is understated in this description & the pictures do not do justice to this large and very comfortable flat Exceptionally well appointed, with every need met. Immaculately clean & very well maintained throughout. The main bed room has a dream of a bed to sleep on, big wardrobes with plenty of storage space. The lounge sofa bed pulls out to a king size, which is as comfortable as any proper bed. Ideal for a night in front of the T.V. The kitchen has everything to hand to cook a full meal or a simple supper.
The location is second to none. Gloucester Rd tube 1 min from door, with South Kens tube a very pleasurable 5 mins walk in opposite direction. Bus stop across the road, with several routes catered for.
As soon as you step out the door ~ London awaits you & everything that offers. Shops, restaurants, bars, museums & are but moments away.
The owners are a delight to do business with, book with confidence.
I can't wait for my next stay!
Many thanks to all that helped make my trip to London a ver memorable one indeed.
Highly recommend to one and all.

Happy Home!

BeeKay Cape Town, South Africa
Review Submitted: June 23, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
I found this apartment to be comfortable, clean and had all the amenities for easy living in a most convenient and up-market part of the city.
There was a problem with the separate toilet when I arrived and I was unable to use it. Happily there was another in the bathroom and as I was alone that did not bother me. Hopefully the problem will l be attended to in due course.
The owner as well as the agent were in constant contact with me before and during the time of my stay and their attention and caring attitude was extremely gratifying.
The bedroom was pretty and the large King size bed was very comfortable, and there was plenty of space for clothes and shoes. There was a plasma TV in the bedroom as well as a larger one in the lounge. The lounge is spacious with two couches and a sizable diningingroom table and chairs.

The Kitchen is airy and bright with all the mod cons including a good size fridge and lovely glass breakfast table and chairs.

The position is perfect for holiday makers and well as the business person. The apartment is on the ground floor and faces a small park. Literally around the corner is the Gloucester Road tube station as well as bars, restaurants, a chemist, laundry as well a large Montrose Super market ( similar to Marks and Spencer but cheaper). It is very easy to catch a cab as they pass by the apartment all day as does the busses.

There is a very short walk to the famous Victoria and Albert museum and well as a 10 min walk to the beautiful Kensington Garden.

I was sorry to leave as this apartment had become home to me.
I will definitely be back!

Seattle couple in London for a week

Bill-from-Seattle Seattle, WA. USA
Review Submitted: May 19, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
Starting with the exchange of emails and phone questions we had, each of our concerns were handled professionally and quickly. Is the bed an american king size? Yes (and it was indeed). Is it safe to leave valuables while we tour London? Yes (multilple locks are present, but you'll quickly realize all are not necessary). Is there a hairdryer? Yes. Is there a way to make coffee? (a french press was purchased the day we arrived to ensure that need was met). Most important - Can we trust these folks with our rent money? Yes (and we're glad we did).
But the two most outstanding features for me: the neighborhood was amazingly accessible, safe, easy-to-learn; and the apt (flat) personnel were exceptional. Adam oriented us to the flat, then took us for a quick walkabout the neighborhood. He was responsive to our request for TV help, but respective of our time and privacy. Gerry handled our exit and was similar in his kindness and helpfulness. We highly recommend this rental. Be aware, it is not modern, but has character that matches it's upper-working class neighborhood. When asked for suggestions, we recommended an additional (full-length) mirror and a clock. We especially enjoyed Tube accessibility (2 blocks away) for quick, cheap tourist sites.

Review Submitted: May 19, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
Great apartment with fantastic location. Close to tube staition with access to 3 lines and bus routes as well. We stayed as a couple witth adult son and it was most comfortable. Very good service from owners agent, who at very short notice provided us with an early check in and quick friendly service.Good area for pubs and dining and would not hesitate in recommending to fellow travellers. Ground floor location also an added bonus following other experiences in Europe of to many stairs

an excellent place to stay in London

Trusha Rosh-ha-Ayin, Israel
Review Submitted: May 7, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
We rented the apartment for three people (a couple with a teenager son) though it can easily accommodate up to 5. The location is great, two minutes from the tube and everything you need can be found in the neighbourhood (TESCO, pubs, DVD library, several French patisseries!). The apartment is spacy; the kitchen is fully-equipped; the property is in good state. The owner and property manager provided excellent service, were very helpful and nice. We already recommended it to our friends.
