Planning a trip to London? This penthouse apartment puts you right in the heart of things. Landmarks like the British Museum and Oxford Circus are within walking distance, and there’s an Underground station a few moments away. There’s ample space here for a bigger group, along with a kitchen for dining at home, although you’ll be spoilt for choice when picking a place to eat nearby. It’s worth noting that one of the bedrooms is more functional than fashionable, and there are stairs to climb to reach the top floor. But we think the location more than makes up for that, whether you’re in town for work or play.

Home truths
This home is currently for sale, and occasional viewings may take place during your stay. You’ll be given at least 24 hours’ notice prior to any viewings and they typically last around ten minutes. As a courtesy, the host offers a complimentary cleaning before each viewing.
There's no lift here. You'll need to be able to climb stairs to reach the entrance of the home.
One bedroom is lacking the cosy finishes that the other rooms have. This room also has an en-suite sink.
Your host can provide a cot for little ones upon request – just bring your own cot linen.
Parking in London can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to easily accessible public transport where possible. Goodge Street Underground station is a three-minute walk away.

Local guide
About Fitzrovia
Wedged between Bloomsbury, Soho, Covent Garden and Marylebone, Fitzrovia is a haven for foodies, art lovers and shoppers alike. You'll be rubbing shoulders with stylish local architects, gallerists and other artsy animals every evening from 6pm onwards, either sipping a cocktail in a glamorous bar or having a pint in one of the many historic and characterful local pubs. The weekends are a bit quieter when the local workers disperse, which is a good time to stroll up to Regent's Park, marvel the glories of the British Museum or head to the shops on Oxford Street.
