A perfect base for exploring London, this stylish apartment has contemporary style in spades. It’s chic and attractive, with Victorian charm combined with modern amenities. We love the white-tiled kitchen, with a breakfast bar for dining, and the cosy living room space. There’s a desk for remote working, and the bedroom has been designed with relaxation in mind. Russell Square tube station is a nine-minute walk away, and you can easily walk to St Pancras International Station.

Local guide
About Bloomsbury
Bloomsbury has got it all. Steeped in literary history (this is where Virginia Woolf and her pals used to live), filled with beautiful townhouses and some of the most delightful garden squares in London. It has some great pubs, and is home to one of London's most-loved street of independent shops and restaurants, the utterly charming Lamb's Conduit Street. The British Museum is on your doorstep and Oxford Circus is a ten minute walk away. Need we say more?
