This oh-so-handsome Victorian apartment building set in the smart Bayswater district makes all the right first impressions. Inside, you’ll love the slick, modern interiors with statement artwork adding layers of interest and style, and you’re all sorted for work with a dedicated desk and shared lounge space downstairs if you fancy a change of scene. And though there’s no kitchen space to speak of, with so many restaurants, gastro pubs and buzzy cafes on your doorstep, we don’t think you’ll give a hoot. When it's time to stretch your legs, take a stroll to the vast green spaces of Kensington Gardens (a nine-minute stroll) and Hyde Park. An excellent choice for guests combining work and play in the capital, you’re just moments from the underground if you're headed to the city.
