While this eighteenth-floor home's stunning view of towering skyscrapers in nearby Canary Wharf is spectacular enough, it's the communal spaces in the apartment building that really impressed us. There’s a gym on the thirty-fourth floor (with even more views) a residents' lounge, a leafy terrace, a cinema room and a communal dining space to entertain large groups. The home itself has a neutral, modern interior and a comfort cooling system in all rooms. Alternatively, you can get some fresh air during the summer months out on the balcony, which has enough space for guests to sit and drink in the panorama. If you're visiting for business in Canary Wharf, it only takes about ten minutes to walk to most of the main office blocks. The Jubilee line and DLR will get you into the rest of the UK's capital pretty quickly too if your meetings finish early.
