Great location close to Pimlico Tube Station

Date of Stay: 01/04/12
Review Submitted: 01/10/12
Great stay we had plenty of room for 4 people. We traveled using the tube and buses and walked and never had any problems. We were a short walk to The Tate museum, there were good Pubs and diners nearby as well as a number of grocery stores. We used TV, internet, dishwasher, stove and oven. We could have used better instructions on the oven but we figured it out. The flat was quiet. The internet had to be reset a number of times as it dropped out. This would be a great place to stay with children. This may not work for people with disabilities since there were stairs into the building and the shower/bath was awkward to get out of. I had some trouble with the web site but some always got back to me promptly. Be sure to have a map with you. I would stay here again and recommend it to friends.

Our family of 5 (19, 17, 15 year-old) stayed in the Regency flat between Dec. 31 and Jan. 6 and were absolutely satisfied. The apartment is clean and very spacious 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom and a kitchen including anything a family need. It was quiet even during Chrismas holidays. Most of all, it is a 10-minute walk to Westminster Hall, Big Ben and the abbey and 15 min. to Trafalgar Square. Also, the Pimlico tub station is no more than 5 minutes and it is a main line to most of the major attractions (we went back to Heathrow through the subway). We took a couple of coach bus rides (Windsor, Stonehenge, Bath) and Premium Tours picked us on Belgravia Road, 2 blocks away. The interactions with Boutique London Lets (they reply very quickly to any concern) were very professional and helpful. To check-in, they gave me a number to call upon arrival and a person was waiting for us at the door to handle the key (even if it was on New Year's Eve at 5pm...). Rates are quite fair and the fees have been taken on my credit card as agreed, without any surprise. I recommend Boutique Lets without hesitation. Ps. For those who plan to visit Hampton Court, think twice - we were a little bit disapointed by the whole visit.

The apartment is located at a quiet neighbourhood with minimal traffic flow. The surrounding area is picturesque and the period buildings are worth taking snapshots of. Location-wise many of the main attractions are within walking distance, such as Victoria Tower Park, Big Ben, Houses of Parliament and Buckingham Palace. The are grocery store within reach and Pimlico station is a short leisurely walk away. The Neighbourhood itself is worth exploring so that's an attraction in itself:) Apartment is stock full of necessities and we only had to shop for edibles. We had a great stay!

It was in a very central location; 15 minute walk to either Trafalgar Square or Buckingham Palace. The apartment could use a little updating but was clean and quiet. I would recommend this apartment to anyone traveling to London who doesn't want to stay in a hotel.

Having such a bright, spacious and clean flat in such a beautiful and convenient neighborhood made my stay in London that much more enjoyable. All of my interactions with the staff were professional and informative and helped to alleviate any stress I may have felt while planning the trip. I would certainly work with Boutique London Lets for future trips to London and plan on recommending them to any friends planning on visiting the city.

we enjoyed the unit very much. easy access to tube, trains, etc. nice location and walkable to westminster. pubs nearby. things to improve - signs at entrance hall directing visitors to the various units (we went all the way up before we realized unit was on ground floor) a few decorations or artwork on walls would liven up unit quite a bit.

Review Submitted: 09/07/11
We rented a two bedroom apartment from Boutique London Lets for 5 nights. We were travelling with our two young daughters and the location could not have been better for us. We were within walking distance of many of London's sights and attractions. There are grocery stores and restaurants an easy walk from the apartment as well. The apartments it's self was nice and clean and well equiped. The building is a very quiet one which was great for our first few days because the girls sleeping schedule was off.

Review Submitted: 09/07/11
The location of the flat was very good - really close to central London. However, we felt that the flat lacked character and was very bare - no books or games just the minimum - ie, chairs, beds etc. Having said that it was very clean and we had a good weekend. I don't think we would have wanted to stay any longer than our 2 nights though as the flat didn't have a very homely feel to it. Thanks for a good weekend.

Rating - five stars! The flat that I rented for my recent stay in London was fantastic! The booking process was easy, and the customer service was prompt and courteous. The 2-bedroom/2-bathroom unit was conveniently located near the Pimlico tube station, and within easy walking distance of local grocery stores, main roads, restarants - yet was very quiet and peaceful day and night. The amenities in the flat equaled or surpassed anything I'd expect at a finer hotel. My stay in London included both business, and some personal time - and I was so happy to bring my 21 year old daughter with me (while she was on spring break from college) for her first visit to the UK. This experience has also helped me learn more about, and use many of the online services connected with Google, and my gmail account. I am 100 percent satisfied by this recent experience and would recommend others to investigate the services and properties offered by Boutique London Lets. Sincerely, Timothy University Boston
