Business or pleasure? How about the best of both? This Clerkenwell marvel offers bedrooms that double as board rooms, ample sitting areas, a sleek office and the rarest gem of all – outside space in the heart of London. A former 18th-century ironmonger's workshop, you'll have plenty of room across four floors to spread out. The balcony's hot tub is sure to be a favourite spot, while the roof garden is perfect for enjoying alfresco cocktails, even if weather isn't on your side – there are heat lamps, a fire pit and a retractable roof. Location-wise, the street may be quiet, but with Shoreditch in striking distance, you won't lack restaurants, bars and pubs nearby. The tube is also within walking distance – five minutes to the Barbican's Elizabeth line and ten to Old Street or Farringdon stations.
