Built-in bookshelves and carefully curated décor add a touch of warmth, while the dining nook—with deep-set bench seating and blue upholstered chairs—offers a peaceful spot for meals or morning coffee.

Fully equipped and cleverly designed, the kitchen features wooden cabinetry, ample countertop space, and essential appliances including a microwave, kettle, toaster, and electric hob. Thoughtful open shelving keeps everything within easy reach, making it a practical and efficient space for light cooking or preparing a quick breakfast before exploring the city.

The generously sized bedroom is a serene haven, dressed in soft creams and gentle green hues. With a comfortable double bed, quality linens, and traditional furnishings including bedside tables and reading lights, this room invites rest and relaxation. A large sash window fills the space with light, while thick curtains ensure peaceful sleep.

The Local Area
Step outside and find yourself in the heart of Chelsea, just moments from the boutiques and restaurants of the King’s Road and the refined galleries of Sloane Square. Whether you’re here for shopping, dining, or simply soaking up the neighbourhood charm, you’re perfectly placed to experience the best of west London.

Getting Around
Transport couldn’t be easier: Sloane Square Underground Station (District & Circle lines) is just a 6-minute walk away, offering quick access to the West End, South Bank, and beyond. Several bus routes also run from nearby King’s Road.

Perfectly positioned and full of character, this refined Chelsea flat—available through A Place Like Home—makes a superb base for your London stay.

Our standard check-in procedure is self-check in via key collection nearby, but if you would like someone to meet you at the home to show you in we can organise that for a £20 fee.

The stores we use are usually no longer than a 5-10 minute walk and we always try to make it as convenient as possible!

The apartment is VERY well-appointed and well-maintained. The furnishings are comfortable, serviceable, and high quality. With two bureaus, shelves, and closet spaces in the bedroom, there is PLENTY of room to unpack and store your clothes if you wish. The kitchen has modern tea kettle, coffee pot, dishwasher, and clean fridge, This helped us have quick, affordable breakfasts before we went out for the day. Also, it was helpful that there were two bathrooms in the apartment to get ready quickly in the evening in time for shows and dinner reservations. Really, the only drawback, for us, had to do with the fact that my mom is in a wheelchair, so some accessibility issues came up. Specifically, the apartment is located on the second floor (there is not lift) and the bedroom is on a different level than the rest of the rooms. In addition, the bathroom had a tub (as opposed to a walk-in shower. Thus, accessibility was a little challenging, but certainly possible. If there are no accessibility issues for anyone in your group, the apartment is fabulous. We also happened to stay during the four-day heat wave in London, so the apartment was a bit warmer than I think it would normally be. However, there were fans in the living room and bedroom, and they helped. For the price, and central location near great shopping, restaurants, and public transportation. It was a WONDERFUL space to come back to every evening after long days of sightseeing, dining, and entertainment.

The flat is extremely comfortable, incredibly well situated in Chelsea (surrounded by shops, restaurants, charm), the check-in process was a dream, and the communication with management/host was terrific. Highest recommendation. I hope to return soon.

Lovely property. Great location—close to underground and shopping. Could use new bed pillows at some point—pretty firm. We really enjoyed our stay.

A very liveable and attractive apartment wonderfully located! Near transportation, good restaurants, neighborhood food stores, plenty of shopping and a lovely neighborhood to explore. Road construction blocked our street much of our stay, but I assume that was temporary. A Place Like Home staff were responsive to our few requests. We were very happy with this flat!
