The location of this apartment is just amazing. It's a one-minute stroll to the British Museum via Great Russell Street, while Oxford Circus and Oxford Street are a fifteen-minute walk. Go shopping in Selfridges or wander a little further and indulge in an afternoon tea in Mayfair. Vibrant Covent Garden is ten minutes on foot, or it's the same distance to the Royal Opera house for a spot of culture. If you want to get the most out of your trip, your host can arrange guided tours too. Back at this elegant and luxurious home, it's as impressive as its address. We love the attention to detail lavished on this place, such as the fabulous encased orchid lights in the stylish bedroom and the many modern artworks adorning the walls. Take a seat on the comfy sofa and enjoy a glass of Champagne at the end of a busy day. This apartment is perfect for a family, friends, or professionals on business in this captivating city.

Local guide
About Bloomsbury
Bloomsbury has got it all. Steeped in literary history (this is where Virginia Woolf and her pals used to live), filled with beautiful townhouses and some of the most delightful garden squares in London. It has some great pubs, and is home to one of London's most-loved street of independent shops and restaurants, the utterly charming Lamb's Conduit Street. The British Museum is on your doorstep and Oxford Circus is a ten minute walk away. Need we say more?

The West End is home to some of the most iconic theatres in history, such as The Theatre Royal, the legendary Palace Theatre, the Savoy or the Criterion.
Chill out on Russell Square
This small park sits in the middle of all the action, so is a great place to sit and people watch. You may even be lucky to catch the local Hari Krishnas in action.
Burger & Fries Heaven at Five Guys
We are all for local restaurants, however, being so close and extremely delicious, we recommend Five Guys for Hamburgers made from scratch in front of you. Attention, addiction danger!
Try the ramen at kanada-ya
It's easy to spot the place with a large queue of people from every continent. Some of the best ramen in London. The wait is completely justifiable.
