For the business traveller arriving in London for an early morning meeting or an international jet-setter on a pit-stop visit to the UK's capital, this apartment is more than enough to suffice. The interior is simple, sure, but there's everything here you could need for a fleeting stay. We thought the bathroom was pretty luxurious and could easily pass in some of the upmarket hotels that dot the map around these parts. The twenty-four-hour concierge service in the building is another welcome bonus, as is the access to a communal gym and lounge. However, we'd be lying if we didn't say that the major selling point is the location. Most of the main office blocks in the financial district can be reached in around ten minutes on foot, while St Paul's Cathedral sits five minutes' walk in the opposite direction if you have a spare hour or two for sightseeing.

Local guide
About City of London
The City of London might be first and foremost a business district but it does also have over 8,000 residents who call it home, many of whom live in the famous Barbican buildings, one of the greatest examples of 1960s Brutalist architecture and also home to a world-class arts space. The streets of the Square Mile itself hint at the area's rich history: goldsmiths, mercers, grocers, fishmongers and their trades are still celebrated in their livery halls and there are over 600 listed buildings!
