About this property
Self Contained Top Floor Apartment in the heart of London’s West End
This central London apartment in is situated in TheatreLand, Covent Garden providing easy access to all that London’s fabulous West End has to offer. The building is Victorian and the apartment itself has only just been redecorated leaving it clean fresh and modern throughout. It is the perfect base to go exploring the West End from by foot, or for trips further afield there is a wide range of transport links on your doorstep. PLEASE NOTE: Unfortunately due to the age of the building there is NO elevator/ lift. Access to the apartment is only possible via stairs (around 60 steps). The apartment is tastefully decorated in neutral tones with a couple of 'featured' walls (one featuring a floor to ceiling vintage map of central London). From entering by the private front door the small hall leads in to the lounge with a comfortable sofa, TV and a small dining table and chairs. Across from the lounge is the well equipped kitchen with all mod cons such as coffee machine, dishwasher and microwave oven to name but a few. The bedroom provides a double bed with a comfortable mattress (renewed every year) and spread in quality white Egyptian cotton linen. A small dressing table provides a hairdryer and illuminated make up mirror. The wardrobe can store luggage and is equipped with plenty of hangers. An iron and board is also provided. The compact bathroom is kitted out with wc, basin and mains pressure shower. A heated towel rail for warmth and towel drying and surfaces to accommodate your toiletries.
PLEASE NOTE: The sofa is NOT a sofa bed nor is it suitable to sleep on.

This apartment was everything we had hoped for. Plenty of space with modern appliances and very central location. Fantastic communication with Host and safe environment. We loved our stay and would surely come back to this location.Miek & Shannon
Great stay in lively London neighborhood! The flat was perfect for visiting our son studying abroad in London. The neighborhood is excellent for exploring the West End and convenient to two tube stations that will get you quickly anywhere you want to go. The flat was comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay. We would definitely stay here again!
My daughter and I spent three weeks in this darling apartment. It was the perfect size and offered everything we could have wanted to make it our home, while in London. Perfect location for exploring the city and provided a comfortable, homey place to return each night! Ian was an amazing host and was responsive to any questions I had. Will definitely want to stay here if I’m lucky enough to return to London!
We enjoyed our stay here. Location was great. It was easy to get to sites and lots of great restaurants close by. The flat was very clean and well appointed.
We were in London for a long weekend and the apartment was in a perfect location. Ian was attentive and easy to communicate with and the place is as lovely as the photos. Would definitely stay again!
Great location, very clean and well appointed. Heads up - it is on the fifth floor with no lift/elevator so you need to be able to do stairs. We would stay here again.
The check in process was so detailed and helpful. Ian responded quicker than any host I've ever had through any service. The flat was just as described and it was perfect for the two of us. Centralized location with easy tube access and great fun within walking distance. Highly recommend this place & we are thinking of coming back to it on future visits.thandistance.
I was just one person for this work trip. It was the perfect size for me. The location was very good in Covent Garden. The apartment was very clean too.
Perfect little place right in the middle of central London. Easy access to many highly visited areas and the tube as well. Great hub to start daily adventures. Apartment was clean and had everything needed for my stay.
We were delighted with this apartment. It was absolutely spotless, very well equipped, and the location could not have been better. Easy walking distance to many sights, close to theatres, very lively area.
Ian always responded quickly to any questions we had. We would definitely stay here again.
Great place to stay in the middle of London activities and sites. Very clean, well furnished and comfortable. It is up 4 flights of stairs, which is a little challenging with luggage, but the owner makes that situation clear in the listing so you should not be surprised. Also very quiet and safe. Would definitely recommend it.
Our third stay at Ians property Location is perfect Very walkable . Yes it is top floor ..no lift.. good cardio workout
Some renovation noise across the street but appears to be winding up soon.
Kitchen is nicely equipped and bonus having washer/dryer
We spent 8 nights in this clean flat that has cable tv, washer/dryer, and was close to so much waking or riding the tube. If we are able to travel to London again, we would stay here. Ian was easy to contact ahead of and during the trip. If you are looking for a 2 person place that is safe and easy access to London, this us a great find.
Once again a great stay. First time using the new checkin procedure. Instructions may seem a bit daunting but is incredibly straight forward. 3 minute walk to the shop for keys. Is open 24 hours so no worries if you have travel delays our 4th or 5 th stay at the flat
A great property for 2 in a perfect central London location. The flat was hospital clean, well equipped and charmingly decorated. The location couldn’t have been better, easy walk to the British museum, west end theaters, Oxford/Bond St. and all the food/pubs that one could ask for. Access to the rest of London
was just a short tube ride away. The flat was easy to get to from Paddington Station. All in all, a perfect place to explore London!
We loved this nice apartment!
Nicely decorated, very clean and well equipped for the meals we cooked while there.
I thought they had a hair dryer but couldn't find it. The bed is very soft so be aware of that if you have back issues and/or prefer a firm bed.
The location is fantastic and if you are into comedy, there is a venue right around the corner. We would definitely book again next time we come to London.
