You’ve got Central London on your doorstep here at this stylishly designed apartment just minutes away from the bright lights of the West End and the shops of Covent Garden. Though compact, this studio apartment packs a decorative punch with vibrant pops of colour in its decor and a collection of funky art prints that lend the space a creative, characterful flair. We love the ample natural light that pours into the main room from the large window, casting a sunny glow on the dining table that beckons fresh coffees each morning and celebratory meals when you’re not out sampling the local food scene. And when it’s time to turn in, the comfortable bed invites a dreamy night’s sleep leaving you rested and ready for another day of exploring. Speaking of seeing the sights, you’re spoilt for choice when it comes to things to see and do – Covent Garden is a three-minute walk, Leicester Square is a five-minute stroll, and both Oxford Street and Soho are ten minutes away on foot.

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...
