Click to book Riversong now: from £300 per night The River Thames is known as the artery that flows through London’s beating heart, and riverside locations in the centre of the city are some of the most desirable in the whole country. This gorgeous modern apartment sits on the Thames’ south bank, just upstream from the iconic Houses of Parliament and Big Ben. Sit outside on the private balcony and enjoy the view out over the river, with the historic buildings of Westminster in the distance. Inside, there is ample living space, with comfortable sofas and statement art that gives the whole place a unique sense of personality.

Click to book A Glam Abode now: from £170 per night This one-bedroom apartment of compact size and glamorous interiors is located in Southwark - home of the iconic Tate Modern and popular Borough Market. It's an ideal spot for those looking for a quieter location that’s still close to the bustle and with plenty of attractions nearby. As expected from your meticulous host, the linens are premium and the toiletries luxurious. The interiors speak for themselves with lots of velvet, tasteful black and white photography and framed movie posters for the ultimate Hollywood glam. Sleeps up to 2 | 1 Bedroom | 1 Bathroom

Click to book Durward Charm now: from £400 per night This home stands proudly above adjacent buildings and casts an imposing shadow on the street below, famous for its upmarket gentlemen's outfitters – with your downstairs neighbour being a traditional shoe shop. The whole area has a classy and traditional London vibe, so upon entering this grand building, you might be surprised by the interiors of the flat. Sleek white fixtures and fittings, monochrome photography prints, honey-coloured flooring, and a neutral colour palette are a welcome contrast to the buzz of nearby Piccadilly. Sip an Earl Grey on the balcony as you look out over the city centre from your vantage point. The plush bedrooms also feature French doors or large windows with views – it’s a city that deserves to be seen. You should be able to spot St James's Church at Piccadilly, right across the street. As it’s well known for its classical music programme, why not stop in for a lunchtime concert? Then on to St James’s Square, where you can unwind in elegant and peaceful formal gardens. For the evening, the glitzy restaurants of Mayfair are calling. You won’t even need to hail a black cab, as it’s only a ten-minute walk away. Sleeps up to 4 | 2 Bedrooms | 2 Bathrooms

Click to book Middleton Place now: from £1001 per night The bright lights of Oxford Street and Soho are just a short walk away when you stay at this sleek modern home. Muted tones contrast with colourful modern art in the open-plan living space, while the kitchen is all clean lines and stainless steel appliances – plus a convenient breakfast bar. Should you fancy dining out, there are plenty of places to choose from in stylish Fitzrovia and Marylebone. Take a walk to Carnaby Street for some retail therapy, or admire the astounding artworks at the National Gallery. If you're looking to explore all corners of the city, catch the tube from nearby Goodge Street station. In the evening, soak in the freestanding bathtub with a glass of wine in hand, then collapse onto the plush sofas in front of the TV to catch a film or play on the games console. Sleeps up to 6 | 3 Bedrooms | 3 Bathrooms

Click to book Peter the Rose now: from £734 per night Peter the Rose is an impeccably finished apartment with striking views over Westminster. The amenities are also impressive, with lift access, a concierge and rainfall showers creating a real sense of luxury. Your host doesn't live here so the space lacks a little of the charm that comes with a lived-in home, however, if you're after an apartment with hotel like amenities in a central location, Peter the Rose will tick a lot of boxes for you. Sleeps up to 6 | 3 Bedrooms | 4 Bathrooms
