About this apartment rental

Life in the City - your home away from home in Central London!

A cool top floor penthouse apartment offering 110 sqm of living space, including a 40 sqm decked terrace overlooking the financial city. You'll be in the heart of the city - the buzz (and delicious food) of the market street below by day, the quiet you need to rest by night.

The penthouse is a newly built conversion on top of what used to be a pub-house (turned into a cool and lively cafe) and is great both for business visitors to London (walking distance to the City, 2 stops from Kings Cross), as well as tourists (a 10 min walk to St. Paul's and from there take the tube to Oxford street or cross the river over to the Tate Modern for example).

The 40 sqm decked terrace of the flat with expansive views on the City is what makes this place special and is a great end of day destination and a nice brunch/lunch spot any time of the week (London weather permitting).

The master bedroom has a king-size bed, the smaller bedroom has a reclining sofa, that can sleep two. The bathroom has a bathtub as well as a separate shower.

Fully equipped kitchen, including a blender (great for smoothies any time of day), juice press (to satisfy your thirst for fresh orange juice) and a Nespresso coffee machine to help you wake up in the morning. A large oven and stove as well as a microwave, for those who feel the need to cook at home, although there are a bunch of great places at your doorstep (Turkish, sushi, Vegan, Thai, Indian, Italian, Ramen noodles and more).

For groceries, Waitrose supermarket is just down the street.

Please note, the penthouse is situated on the top (3rd) floor of an old pub house conversion. As such, there is no lift in the building, not recommended for guests who may have mobility problems. The flip side of the walk up the stairs are the sweeping views of the city from the large outdoor space of the terrace.

Walking distance to St. Paul's cathedral, Tate Modern, Tower bridge, etc. Close to 3 metro stops/5 metro lines: Barbican, Old Street and St. Paul's.

Open market on Whitecross is fun and delicious!

Who loves it: business travellers; solo travellers; families with kids; couples or friends visiting London for the weekend;

At your doorstep: the Barbican; Guildhall school of music; Smithfields; Shoreditch; Kingscross St Pancrass; Sandlers Wells; Bank of England;

Fantastic apartment and perfect for everything we needed. Close to multiple underground stations, lots of grocery stores nearby, and worked perfectly for our family of 4. The bed in the second bedroom is smaller but for our 8 and 6 year it was more than enough. If we have to opportunity to return to London, we will definitely look to see if this apartment is available.

We had a really nice time staying here! The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen had everything you could’ve needed. We stayed with our 2 tweens and it worked out great. The neighborhood was awesome too. We loved both the Chinese and Italian restaurants right across the street. On the street right outside, on the weekdays, it turns into an entire like food market with vendors selling all types of food. It smelled amazing every morning, but it wasn’t loud or disruptive. We were never there for lunch, but it looked so delicious. We had a lovely time and would recommend to anyone looking for a fun London city experience just a little off the main spots, but still super accessible.

Check in was a nightmare. Arrived at 1am and couldn’t find the keys. No lighting. Very dark. Key was behind a box and the wall. Walked around till we found hotel. $220.
