Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
When you stay at this elegant apartment, you'll be a short walk from all the iconic King's Road boutiques. Sloane Square and the District and Circle Line Underground are just a short distance away, so you can easily get to more of London's attractions, including Earl's Court four stops west. Your hosts have created a calming space here with a real homely vibe. It's perfect for a couple, but if you're a group of four, two people will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living room. Still, it's a spacious room, and it's totally separate from the kitchen. Please note all stays of 8 nights or more include complimentary weekly cleaning, linen changes and replenishment of toiletries.
