This apartment ticks the boxes for both style and setting. A short stroll will take you to South Kensington Underground, while the V&A and Natural History museums are walkable in ten. It's certainly a great base for sightseeing, but restaurants, cafes, and all the other amenities you'd want can also be reached on foot. Back home, the open-plan living area has everything you need for cosy nights in, from the well-appointed kitchen to the sumptuous sofa. Both bedrooms are comfortable, while two bathrooms ensure nobody will have to share.

Home truths
While the home can sleep up to four people, the maximum occupancy is two guests.
Given the central location on a main road, street noise is to be expected.
There's a small decked area off the lounge, but there's nowhere to sit and it's not the biggest.
Parties, gatherings or events aren't allowed.
There may not be a desk here if you're travelling on business. However, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace.
The entrance to this home is shared with the building's other residents.
Parking isn't provided, but a car isn't needed in London. South Kensington Underground Station is easily reached on foot.
