A fantastic flat for a family of four! Mohammad was easy to get in touch with and was flexible with check-in times. We were able to get around London easily with two Tube stops within walking distance. The neighborhood is safe and clean; it is busy with museums, restaurants and shops, but quiet for being in the middle of the capital. We enjoyed the small balcony for coffee in the morning or a drink in the evening. The flat was clean and very comfortable and I’d highly recommend it for your stay in London.

Hi Jeffrey, thank you so much for your kind words. I’m very happy you enjoyed the flat and the location, and that everything was smooth during your stay. You were a pleasure to host and always welcome back anytime.
We enjoyed our stay in the quiet neighborhood of South Kensington. There was ample room for four adults. The kitchen was very well equipped should you need to dine in. It was a convenient location for taking the tube, walking to nearby restaurants.Would definitely recommend staying here.

Across from The Natural History Museum and down the road from Hyde Park. Lots of restaurants a short walk away. Perfect space for a family of four. Very comfortable!
Nice flat. Plenty of room. AC in bedrooms worked well. WiFi very good. Good location. Pleasant area. Short walk to two tube stops. Plenty of food options in walking distance. Only wish—a connection to skysports on the TV. All in all a very nice 10-day stay. Would book again.

Great Place and Host
Large flat with all needed conveniences. Quiet place in a busy neighborhood in “museum land.” Easy access to a Waitrose and tube. Couldn’t find a descent pub close by but might have been looking on the wrong streets!

This apartment is perfectly located, beautiful light, well maintained, and Mo made sure everything ran smoothly for us! It was a perfect time with our adult daughters in London. Highly recommend!
This flat is great! It’s in a fabulous location and is very spacious with high ceilings. It has everything you need and the beds are extremely comfortable. We stayed here with 2 kids (3 and 5) and found this place to be perfect for our family.
We loved our stay at this property close to Hyde Park and within walking distance to many lovely areas. A lovely comfortable apartment which catered well for us.

Why they chose this property
The Flat is fantastically located just seconds from the Natural History Museum, Imperial College and in the heart of Museum district.
My flat is just five minutes walk from Gloucester Road and South Kensington Tube stations which are on the Circle, District and Piccadilly Lines (which serves Heathrow Airport). It is perfectly located for events at the Royal Albert Hall, V&A, Natural History Museum, Editor's Top Pick - Recommended Royal College of Art, Brompton Oratory, Serpentine Gallery , Editor's Top Pick - Recommended as well as shopping in Kensington and Chelsea.
What makes this property unique
An amazing location, being able to see one of the greatest museums and buildings in London from your living room truly is a rare privilege.
You can even use a little balcony to sit outside and sip from a glass of wine while you watch the world passing by at a fast pace.
Not only it's an extremely convenient location but it’s also a very quintessentially beautiful street and building. You can feel nobility the moment you enter and there is no doubt those high ceilings and large areas provide a rare sense of space in London.
The furniture is made of beautiful (and some custom made) design classical pieces, this is when it starts getting luxurious, the main bed is also bigger than the average and they all have an incredible feel to it.
The entertainment is fantastic and the kitchen comes with all the modern appliances you might need. It’s a complete apartment and there are many special aspects to it.
