Only a short stroll to the British Library and Wellcome Collection, this apartment presents a sleek stay and an idyllic location. Though placed on a slightly quieter street between Euston and Mornington Crescent, its convenient address means you’ll find vibrant bars and cafes on your doorstep – and with two tube stations within easy walking distance, you’re all set when you want to explore further afield. The inside will suit design-oriented individuals seeking a contemporary pad to unwind in. If you’re here on business, there’s a desk to work from, while a bathtub is a relaxing way to end a day spent in the inner city – be it in meetings or perusing one of London’s many galleries.

Local guide


About Somers Town

Wedged between Euston, King's Cross St Pancras and Camden Town, Somers Town is a rare pocket of central London that has managed to retain a genuinely authentic, unpretentious community feel to it. Many Londoners won't even have heard of it but it's a great base if you want to stay in central London without a huge pricetag and there are some great old boozers (The Cock Tavern is our favourite) whose decor and clientele haven't changed a jot for decades. Given its location, it's incredible how few tourists you'll find in these secret back street pubs.
