Experience the colourful lights of London’s Soho with a stay in this effortlessly cool apartment, ideally located in Chinatown. Though centrally located, this home is set away from the street, providing a relaxing and peaceful stay while enjoying all the benefits of being in the capital’s bustling centre. Inside, wood floors and chic Japandi furnishings create an instantly inviting welcome in the open-plan living space with a huge, low sectional sofa inviting you to kick back and relax with a glass of wine. We love the industrial loft vibe here with the decorative exposed brick fireplace and the metal wall lamps. The bedroom, meanwhile, is pared-back yet sophisticated, with a calming monochrome colour scheme, while the bathroom is a vision of relaxation with its metro-tiled rainfall shower. When you’re not hanging out in your hip city pad, go out and explore the sights – you’re spoilt for choice when it comes to culture and entertainment. You’ve got countless restaurant and bar options right on your front door, as well as some of London’s most celebrated bars, cinemas and theatres. Leicester Square is a five-minute walk away, Oxford Street is reachable in ten minutes on foot and the National Gallery’s priceless artworks are a six-minute stroll from your home.

Local guide
About The West End
The West End is about as central as it gets, hundreds of restaurants and bars on your doorstep and you might even see the lights of Shaftesbury Avenue (London's Broadway) blinking through your curtains. It's certainly conveniently located for flopping into bed after seeing a show, but be warned you will be sharing the area with quite a lot of tourists and you won't find many proper Londoners or signs...
