Boasting a fantastic location on Drury Lane, this modern apartment puts some of London's best theatres, museums, and eateries at your fingertips. Covent Garden is a five-minute stroll away – as is Holborn Station when you're ready to explore further afield – while Oxford Street is walkable in ten. Back home, an open-living area is where you'll do most of your socialising. The kitchen is well-appointed for rustling up meals, and there's a sofa bed for guests five and six. The building does lack a lift, so it's a climb to the second floor. Still, we think it's a comfortable, central base.

Local guide
About Covent Garden
Covent Garden is right in the thick of the action of Central London. It's home to the Royal Opera House, an imposing square packed full of weird and wonderful street performers and the charming Five Dials district, with its independent boutiques and restaurants. It's the perfect place to stay if you're planning on seeing some West End shows, all of which are within easy walking distance. If you want to return to peace and quiet at the end of each day then you might want to look elsewhere!
