  • Just returned from a wonderful stay in London. Denise and I, along with my brother and sister-in-law, stayed at this amazing two bedroom flat owned and maintained by professional property managers, three very nice brothers with Sarab being the main contact. This flat, #72 on the eighth floor of a new building, is located very close to Lambeth bridge near the Arch Bishops residence and has a spectacular view of the river Thames. One can see Big Ben and Parliament across the river and the flat is a very convenient base for visiting all the major tourist attractions in London. There is a five star hotel right next door, a convenience store 5 steps away and a tube station 7 minutes away along with 5 or 6 restaurants within a two minute walk. There is a cozy pub right down the street called "The Rose" that is a nice spot to stop in on the way home from a day's exploring. Next time in London we will definitely make arrangements to stay in this flat and I highly recommend the flat to any other travelers who are looking for a clean, roomy, comfortable and convenient place to stay.

  • My sister and I stayed at Albert Embankment for 10 days in October, 2009. The apartment was great-- clean, spacious and had a wonderful view of Westminster and Big Ben across the River Thames. The location is so convenient to the city, Underground and convenience stores. I will definitely recommend this VRBO to friends and family if they visit London and I will also return if I visit London again.

  • Sarab and his brother Atif were fine and responsive hosts. They responded VERY well to our requests and made this THE BEST VRBO experience we have had to date. The view from the apartment was stunning. We shall return. They are expanding to Paris. They are proven hosts who deserve your business.

  • I can't say enough wonderful things about Sarab ( and his brother)! When my families London flat was cancelled 48 hours before leaving home, I was in a panic. After making many calls in desperation, Sarab, worked with me, piecing together my accomadations. I needed two flats, so he was able to make a contact for the second flat which wasn't even his property. He definately provided wonderful help, and safed our vacation. Secondly, the flat was clean, comfortable, and an excellent location!!!! I would highly recommend this flat.

  • My friend and I had the great pleasure of staying in the Albert Embankment apartment from May 28, 2008 to June 4, 2008. We were so very pleased with our decision to rent a condo! My doctor's receptionist is from England and swore that there were no such things as condos in London, there were only flats! Boy was she wrong!!! And not only that, we told all of our friends about the condo we booked and how much it cost and they were flabbergasted. We also looked into booking four star hotels, which would have been a single room with two queen size beds, and not all of them had air conditioning either and it would have come out to approximately the same that we paid for a two bedroom condo with two bathrooms, a living room, dining room, kitchen with washer and dryer and air conditioning. We took our time each morning with breakfast, and at night when we got "home" it was soooo great to be able to kick back in our bathrobes and slippers and walk around a large apartment and sit at the dining room table to review our day over some snacks and tea. We also found the computer very helpful in finding and booking some restaurants. The apartment was everything it advertised to be and the photos are exactly the same ones I took with my camera. Not only was there someone to meet us at the apartment, but whenever we had a question, we were able to call Sarab and he answered all our questions, and there is always a doorman on call and at night, the front doors are locked for your security. The market is attached to the building and we found it very convenient and reasonable, in fact they had the best prices on Cadbury Chocolate bars. There is even a hotel right next door, that several tour companies pick up from. Vauxhall train station/bus depot is a 5 minute walk, there is a boat that is a restaurant docked right on the river in front of the building and a bus stop in front of the hotel next door. The London Eye is a ten minute walk, but you don't need to spend the money, you could sit in the luxury of your own apartment, sipping a drink, and see the same sites through the floor to ceiling panoramic windows. I would 1000% go back to the apartment and recommend it to anyone, especially families. We were a little apprehensive because the furniture looked all white and pristine, but once we were there, it is so inviting and comfortable that you did not feel like you were in a museum and were afraid to touch anything. We walked all over the place and this was a safe and inviting haven to return to each night. I can't say enough about my experience here. Thank you Sarab for one of the best vacations I've ever had and I've had many. In fact, I would have been happy to just stay in the apartment for my entire week there.

  • We enjoyed our stay at Albert Embankment very much. The apartment was clean, well equipped, secure, bright and spacious – exactly as advertised!! The great views from the floor-to-ceiling windows in the open plan kitchen/lounge made morning coffee and evening cocktails very enjoyable. Two full bathrooms were also a great asset. The grocery store in the building was convenient but expensive. A Tesco supermarket is a short distance away and has a much better selection and is less expensive. A very central location within walking distance (even with 2 eighty year old ladies) to Vauxhall or Waterloo stations, Westminster Abbey and the London Eye. Thank you Sarab. Hopefully the apartment will be available on our next trip to London.

  • With three teenage sons, this was a lot smarter and cheaper than staying in a hotel. With the greenback so weak, it was the only value to be had in all of London. Sarab and his brother are true gentlemen.

  • We stayed at Albert Embankment for three delightful weeks at Christmas 2007. The location was perfect for my elderly parents who particularly appreciated the convenience and ample room of a modern flat, the easy access to transportation was a real benefit for them as well. My son and i enjoyed the walk along the river every morning as we made our way to nearby Waterloo station to start our explorations for the day. The internet connection made it so easy to book tickets to the theater,ice skating and access train schedules and passes which made me regret hauling along my heavy laptop. We will never forget waking up to those fabulous views of the city and hearing Big Ben chime nearby. I have been to London many, many times and have never felt so comfortable and at home as I did here at #9. Sarab was the most gratious and accomodating host you could hope to have, we are already planning our return in 2009

  • Our family of 4 was very comfortable here. The building was secure. The rooms and beds were comfortable and clean. Sarab was readily available with answers to any questions we had and made our stay easier. The apartment's location was great. Waterloo station, London Eye, IMAX, etc. was a 20 minute walk or 5 minute bus ride away. Vauxhall tube stop was about a 15 minute walk with dawdling children.

  • Our stay at Sarab's flat was a wonderful experience. It had plenty of room for four adults and my 7-month old baby, and it was so clean I didn't hesitate to let the baby crawl around on the floor. The kitchen was well-stocked, the beds were comfortable, the grocery had most everything we needed, and the location was prime. It couldn't have been a more pleasant stay!
