What's black, white and red all over? This trendy apartment right across the street from Hyde Park. With direct views of Kensington Gardens, this flat is perfectly placed for a London getaway – and the huge open plan living area promises plenty of space for the whole family to spread out. A little bit funky and a whole lot of cool, the style here mixes sleek contemporary design with more eclectic pieces – imagine cowhide rugs, squishy leather armchairs and colourful modern art. Though the bedrooms are a bit more conventionally styled compared to the rest of the apartment, they all have en-suites, ensuring that all guests have their own piece of privacy. The master even has a jacuzzi bathtub, which is the ideal respite after a busy day. We love the bold red kitchen – it has everything you'll need to whip up a meal or two, but your hosts can also help you arrange services like a private chef or at-home massages if you’d like to make your stay extra special. And with Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens quite literally just over the street as well as Queensway Station a block away, London is truly yours to explore.

This flat doesn't have a private entrance, but there is an elevator
There's no parking provided, so instead of driving, take the tube – Queensway Station is a two-minute walk and can get you all around the city with ease
