We stayed at this property in September 2011. We had 6 people and there was plenty of space for all of us. Two private bedrooms (one with an en-suite), an eat-in kitchen and a large lounge room gave us room to co-exist. You can shut the doors to the kitchen and lounge, thus people can be up and having breakfast and not disturb anyone using the sofa bed in the lounge. The high ceilings add to the spaciousness. The flat is in an imposing building and beautiful street, very quiet. Have a look around the neighborhood, there are pubs that serve decent meals, shopping facilities, and easy access to the tube and Hyde Park. Rolf, the manager, was always responsive to our questions and requests.

I am pleased to write a very glowing review of 53 Lancaster Gate. This two bedroom, 2 bathroom flat was excellent!!! All the rooms were clean, spacious, and attractively furnished. I think the flat looked even better in real life than it did in the photos. The location is ideal--just off the Bayswater Road and near the Lancaster Gate tube station. It was close to supermarkets, wine stores, minimarts, restaurants, and pubs. Despite its central location, the flat was amazingly quiet! It is less noisy than my house, and I live in a sleepy North Carolina college town! We had a wondeful time in London. Somehow, the flat owners even arranged for six consecutive days of sunny weather. I would not hesitate a second in recommending the flat to anyone who wants a really nice, comfortable place to stay in London. In fact, I already have.

I had a great time in the flat this summer. It felt very much like home and the manager was very helpful and courteous. The theatre and the weather were terrific. If I return to London in the future for the Penn summer program, I will certainly contact you about accommodations. Thanks again for making my stay so enjoyable. I will recommend you to my colleagues who may be traveling to London in the future. All the best to you.

My wife and I were very pleased with both the administration of the apartment and the apartment itself. It lived up to its description on the Internet. The location was great as were the size, comfort, facilities, cleanliness and value for money. We would definitely consider staying there again.

We had a wonderful stay in London. Loved the apartment and the location. Although we can't afford another trip right away, I was wondering whether you handle properties in France and Italy so we can contact you for our next trip.

Just wanted to give you a quick note about how much we enjoyed our London holiday. The flat was perfect for our needs and allowed us to make the most of our time. Kaisar (driver ) was great and all our connections in London worked out perfectly. I wish I could say the same for US Airways.... but that's another story. With your permission, I would like to put some positive feedback on a couple of travel websites I belong to. Thank you.

I found the response from your New York Office excellent as I had to make a last minute request & you responded in a very prompt & flexible manner which was really helpful & reassuring. Secondly, the London apartment was delightful - very clean, homely, well set up, convenient & pleasant in every way & we really enjoyed our stay there. It had absolutely everything we could want & we look forward to returning some time. (If you use these few words of mine, please only use my first name.)
