A spacious 'Manhattan-style' studio boasting an incredible location right next to the iconic Chinatown Gate – this apartment is a cut above for those looking to be right in the heart of the action. The studio itself is decorated in a relaxed contemporary style, with plenty of plants, prints and even a pineapple. It's a relaxing spot to return to after a day of exploring everything on your doorstep. Step out, and you'll find many of Soho's main attractions within a short walk of your front door. The tourist hub of Leicester Square is just a few strides away, while well-heeled Regent Street is less than five minutes away. Ever so slightly further afield, you'll find the cool boutiques of Carnaby Street and the flourishing former flower market at Covent Garden, under a ten-minute stroll away.

Home truths
The apartment is on the second floor of a traditional London Townhouse, so there's no elevator
There's a small set of stairs connecting the living/sleeping area and the kitchen
Chinatown is a lively place, but with secondary glazing on the windows, noise should be minimal
Public transport is fantastic in London and parking is a nightmare, so we'd recommend against bringing a car
Housekeeping is provided once a week
The air conditioning unit is portable
Child-friendly amenities such as a cot and highchair are available upon request

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...
