About this property
Tower Bridge & City Location - Exceptional Bright, Spacious & Modern 1-Bed Flat
Lovely, attractive and well-located apartment - light, bright, airy and spacious. Such a large lounge is very unusual in a London apartment - approx 5.75 x 3.8 metres (17 x 12 ft).

New air conditioning/climate temperature controlled units in the lounge and bedroom for warming up or cooling down. Gas central heating readiators in hall and bathroom. Walking distance from several cafés, restaurants, pubs and all forms of public transport. Safe, purpose-built block with 2 brand new elevators and weekday concierge. Temporary gym membership available. Separate large bedroom with queen-size bed and plenty of built-in wardrobes and drawer units. Separate fully-fitted kitchen with washing machine, dishwasher, fridge-freezer, electric oven, glass hob and microwave.
Situated in the "actual" City of London, on the north side of the Thames, we are literally 2 mins walk to Tower Bridge, 4 mins Tower Gateway for Docklands Light Railway, 5 mins Tower Hill tube and Tower Pier for river taxis, 5 mins Fenchurch Street Station, 5 mins Aldgate tube - and extremely handy for a range of London buses. Lovely and peaceful large secluded garden with bench seats and bushes, trees & shrubs - just 1 minute from the apartment.

No extra charges, as your rental payment includes all linen, towels, cleaning and running costs.
Normal check-in is after 16.00 hours and check-out is required by 10.00 hours, unless otherwise agreed. This is purely in order that the cleaning and preparation of the apartment is not jeopardised for the next guest. At less busy times we can, and will, be more flexible.
We, or our representative, will 'meet & greet' you on arrival, and will give you keys and information on the apartment and the area, attuned to you personally, with the intention of you getting the best from your London visit.
The apartment is very handy for cafés, pubs and restaurants and has many in close proximity. There is a Tesco supermarket underneath the block, just round the corner, and an ATM cash point. There are also Sainsbury and a Co-op supermarkets within 100 yards. These supermarkets are open 7 days a week from early morning until 9pm or 10pm – slightly earlier close on Sundays.
The London public transport scene is terrific these days, and it is probably a good idea to purchase an Oyster Card, which will offer unlimited travel on buses, tubes and the Docklands Light Railway, plus discounts on the Emirates cable car and Thames river buses. Cards can be purchased, in advance of your visit, for varying lengths of time, and added to your phone – through the Transport for London website tfl.gov.org..

This accommodation was wonderful. Clean, centrally located with a great host. The weather was a bit hot so the air conditioning was excellent, especially for sleeping. The flat had all the amenities one would need, from kitchen to entertainment, for a very comfortable stay. Don’t want to leave!Must return soon!
The flat was exactly as advertised, clean, quiet, comfortable and with a fully equipped kitchen. The location is excellent with easy access to multiple tube stops and a safe neighborhood all around. Plenty of nearby food shopping and pubs and restaurants too. Bonnie was absolutely awesome to work with - friendly, helpful and responsive. A really wonderful travel experience!
Second stay here. Still just as lovely as the first. Great location, flat has everything you might need. Four grocery stores within a 4 block radius. So happy to have found this spot.
Great location at a bargain price. We had a broken microwave, but they replaced it the next day after we reported it. A fire alarm started chirping low battery at 2:00 AM, we took the battery out and reported it. The flat was spacious, clean and comfortable, with a responsive host. We would stay here again!
Wonderful property. Very clean, comfortable, inviting. Upscale amenities. Great location. Owner and house watcher easy to connect with & wonderful to work with. Highly recommend
After 15 stays, I think I've finally found my perfect go-to location in London. The flat is great, very clean and has literally everything you might need. I had a great time and am already planning my next trip. There was one minor glitch and it was handled immediately - the hosts are VERY responsive.

Thanks Arlene - glad you enjoyed your stay and sorry we didn't get to talk whilst you were here. We'd love you and David to come back and stay some time. Kind regards.
Great apartment, well stocked clean kitchen, good size lounge and bedroom, lovely host, easy to communicate, great location only 6-7 minutes walk to Tower of London bridge. I highly recommend this place.
We throughly enjoyed our 2 week stay at Marlyn Lodge. Bonnie was so personable and efficient with her email correspondence. She answered questions in advance of our trip and set up a seamless check-in and check-out with Carol. They were so flexible and accommodating with our timing. The flat was very clean, bright and spacious. It was exactly as advertised with everything we needed including a dishwasher, and washing machine. The kitchen was well equipped with a coffee maker, toaster, condiments, aluminium foil, cling wrap etc. Carol even left us some milk for our first cup of tea! We encountered a huge change in temperature during our trip and appreciated both the heat and air conditioning when needed. The bed was comfortable and the building was quiet for a good rest after long days of walking. The location was great for exploring East London and provided easy access to the Tube and trains. There were two small grocery stores located within a block. The flat truly felt like a home away from home and we would definitely stay at this property again!
Absolutely brilliant...well equipped, had everything and more we needed. The building has a lift....after 4weeks of travelling and myriad of accommodations most without lifts, this was so very welcome. Fantastic location, choice of underground stations, buses easy walking area. Tesco at bottom of building. Highly recommend staying here. Thank you Bonnie and team.
It was clean, and perfectly located for the tourist attractions we wanted to see. In addition, our flight got massively delayed, and they were still able to work with us for our arrival at nearly 10pm. Amazing overall!
All details leading up to stay were communicated well and accommodation was perfect for our needs. Probably the only thing missing was a local supermarket that stocked things you could cook for evening meals. Would be happy to recommend accommodation to others.
The flat was wonderful! Very clean, very well supplied, and very comfortable!! The location was excellent, very close to major bus lines and tube stations. Very nice restaurants around the area, especially Thai Garden. Also the St Katherine's dock area was close, and great. We would definitely stay again at Bonnie's place if we are back in London.
We loved this flat and the communication with the owner was excellent. Everything was clean, comfortable and worked properly. Close to the tube stations and bus.
The apartment was quiet, clean, spacious, and in a perfect location. We loved our stay and hope to return in the future. Carol and Bonnie were excellent hosts. The view of the Gherkin was great, especially at night. Lots of tube stops were close by, and tons of great food and coffee. Thanks so much for a wonderful stay!
A wonderful apartment with everything we needed and more plus best location got all things London.

About the host
Hosted by Bonnie Fitzpatrick
We used to live here in the City and loved the convenience and vibrancy of the area, but now that we have retired (although we are busier than ever!!) we live outside London and decided to have a complete renovation of the apartment so that we could offer it for rental by discerning visitors to London.
Why they chose this property
It is a great apartment, in a very convenient part of London. Getting around couldn't be easier as we are so close to all means of transport - and London public transport these days is really fabulous. There are lots of restaurants, bistros, coffee shops and old-fashioned English pubs nearby. Grocery store, ATM cash machine and Gym are underneath the block.
What makes this property unique
The apartment is situated in a nice quiet purpose-built gated block. Secure video entry system. Concierge weekdays 08.00 to 16.00 hours. Two elevators. Lovely entrance lobby.
