This stylish West London apartment has everything you'll need for a fuss-free stay. For starters, parking is provided – super handy if you're heading to nearby Heathrow.

There's even a tiny glass balcony, which lets in heaps of natural light and offers a glimpse of the skyline. Just keep in mind that the third guest will sleep on a sofa bed.
