We enjoyed our stay for just over a week in London. The check-in process was easy and the owner was always available to assist and communicate with. The area was quiet and close to the tube stations. We enjoyed the restaurants nearby and walked to them often for dinner and lunch. The flat is close to Big Ben and Parliament. We walked to that area easily. There is a grocery store within walking distance as well. The flat was clean and comfortable. The King sized bed was very comfortable. A bottle of champagne was a nice touch and made us feel welcome. Overall, a great experience.
Nice family room to relax in after a long day of walking
Clean and accessible bathroom
Small, well equipped kitchen, with washing machine and dishwasher. Wish there was a coffee machine, but the kettle worked fine for us

The apartment was in a great, secure location... wonderful pubs, restaurants and shops around the corner. Easy walk to Victoria or Pimlico stations - and even Hyde Park.The apartment was clean with a well- stocked kitchen (appliances, pots, pans, utensils, etc.) having a washer/dryer was great and loved the heated drying rack.Having an extra pullout was nice for the 1 night our friend stayed - or had our daughter come, that would have been fine and private enough for sleep time (had a door and black out curtains).Overall, very comfortable and cozy.

About the host

Hosted by Ed Lewis

Host profile image
Hi, I’m a born-and-raised Londoner currently working in finance in Southwark and living just around the corner from the apartment. I’ve lived in this beautiful Westminster/Pimlico neighbourhood since 2012 and absolutely love the area for its mix of quiet charm, historic landmarks, and unbeatable access to the rest of London.

As someone who enjoys travelling myself, I know how important it is to find a comfortable, well-located place to stay—and I’ve set up the apartment to reflect that. Whether you're in London for sightseeing, work, or just a change of scene, I’m happy to share local tips and help make your stay smooth and enjoyable.

Looking forward to hosting you and helping you make the most of your time in this incredible city!

Why they chose this property

I chose this area because it offers a rare blend of central London convenience with a peaceful, village-like atmosphere. Tucked just behind the Tate Britain and steps from the Thames, it's one of the few places in the city where you can enjoy quiet, leafy streets and still be walking distance from iconic landmarks like the Palace of Westminster, Buckingham Palace, and the West End.

What I love most is the sense of community—Pimlico has a calm, residential feel but is surrounded by history, culture, and excellent transport links. You can take a scenic walk along the river, grab a coffee at a local café, and still be at your meeting or museum visit in minutes. The mix of classic architecture, friendly local shops, and proximity to places like St James's Park and Victoria make it both charming and incredibly practical.

Having lived in the area since 2012, I’ve had time to discover all its hidden gems—from riverside paths and quiet garden squares to great local pubs and international eateries. It’s a place that feels like home, and I enjoy sharing it with guests who want an authentic London experience with all the city’s highlights right on their doorstep.

What makes this property unique

What makes this property unique is its rare combination of space, style, and location. Set just behind the Tate Britain and only moments from the River Thames, the apartment offers a peaceful retreat in the heart of central London. Unlike many rentals in the area, it features a spacious open-plan living area, a luxurious king-size bed, and a comfortable sofa bed—ideal for families or two couples. The flat is bright, modern, and thoughtfully furnished, with everything you need for a relaxing stay, whether you're here for a weekend or a longer visit. Its position on a quiet residential street, yet within walking distance of top attractions and excellent transport links, gives guests the best of both worlds: a true London neighbourhood experience with world-famous landmarks just minutes away.
