Spacious, beautiful apartment on the 7th floor of a well maintained building in an excellent location. Also appreciated the amenities, as well as the big windows throughout with great views. Anthony, the host, was gracious and kind. Really appreciated that he allowed us to check in a bit early after a long train ride. Would definitely recommend the apartment to anyone looking for a great place to stay in London.

Great location, lovely, clean property.

Anthony was great at communicating and the location was absolutely fantastic. A few tiny things in the apartment could use fixing, but Anthony does supply all kinds of shampoo and amenities behind a mirror in the bathroom. The washer dryer was very handy, although I suggest running the fan while you’re using them.

Perfect stay!

We could not recommend this property, nor Anthony, enough. He met us at the apartment and gave us a tour explaining how everything worked, there was a folder with further instructions as well as information on London, the tube and some great pubs! The apartment was spotlessly clean and the location was the best, close to tube stations, buses and river transport. Thanks for a great stay Anthony!

Amazing place to stay.

What an amazing place to stay. The unit is right in the center of everything, a 1-minute walk to the tube and a quick walk to some great restaurants and bars. The unit itself was clean bright and had everything that you would need. Anthony was easy-to-reach if there was an issue and the front door men were able to answer any question we had.

We spent 6 days days at Anthony’s Tower Hill flat. It is well equipped and comes with a helpful binder of instructions for all the appliances. The flat itself is spacious and proved to be a great home base for our wanderings around London.

Beautiful Flat just minutes from Tower Hill Station

This property was gorgeously decorated, offering a full flat that is perfect for a single person or couple. We stayed for 5 days, choosing to eat breakfast and drink our coffee each day at the flat; we also did our laundry - which was great too! Additionally, Anthony offered us an umbrella, basic toiletries, quite a few towels, and kitchen basics. The flat is a 3-5 minute walk from the train station - which is certainly a bonus!We are from Canada, which means air conditioning and scent free is very common. Our only advice is if you are like us and used to these things, just note that fans are offered and scented items are present at this property. It wasn't an issue for us, but we did notice.Overall, we highly recommend this peoperty, and to work with Anthony (he is a very nice person!)Thanks, Anthony! We hope to stay at your flat again sometime

Short Break Home Away from Home

We stayed in London a few days before our cruise. This apartment was in a great location for sightseeing, restaurants & relaxing. The property is well stocked & there are instructions for appliances, window opening & more. It has huge windows in every room, balconies & lovely view of The Gherkin building. The concierge, Calom, is a true delight & so helpful.

Great location near The Tower of London

Loved the location-round the corner from the Tower of London and Tower Hill Station. Everything was literally 20 mins away! Checkin was easy. The apartment was great-space was good. The basket of adapters was excellent. View was really good-the area was great.Local pubs were also good. Tesco express was pretty close Stayed for nearly 2 weeks and was very happy.

Perfect Set-up

The apartment was spacious with floor to ceiling windows and everything we needed for a two-week stay. There were quite a few items you always need for your first day or two already in the cupboards and the refrigerator. The bed was comfortable as was the living room furniture. Having a washer/dryer was an added bonus along with the heated drying rack. Additionally, having a doorman and a locked front entry made us feel especially safe. We would rent the same place again.

Perfectly Situated Apartment!

Anthony's apartment in London was wonderful. Had all the amenities one needs and was so close to so many sights. Five minute walk to the Tower of London, the Uber boat, local pubs and Wetherspoons. Calum was a gem and very helpful with tips and suggestions. Anthony met us at the property and showed us all the ins and outs of the apartment. The apartment itself was exactly as described - roomy, bright and beautiful views of Trinity House and the Gherkin at night. A true haven in a busy city.We loved our stay and if we come back to London again we'll be making a bee line for Anthony's apartment. A true hidden gem. Thank you Anthony!
