With its eclectic interiors, impressive views and central location, this apartment appeals on so many fronts. Starting outside, you'll find yourself in the epicentre of London's iconic sights, with a bevvy of quintessential pubs and high-end restaurants around you, we'd be spoilt for choice come dinner time. For daytime touristy trips, take just a ten-minute walk to Tower Bridge and be at St. Paul's Cathedral in eighteen minutes by tube. With so much to see and do, you'll need a cosy place to retreat to after wandering the city. Fortunately, we really love the modern playfulness and vibrancy of this industrial-chic apartment. Stepping in to look around the decor, you'll notice colourful wallpapers, neon lights and tasteful adornments – it's clear your host has a keen eye for detail. Reflecting the area's industrial edge, the living space is cleverly designed across two levels with sleek glass bannisters, light wood and high ceilings. If you're working from home during your stay, we could think of no better place for powering through than the super-stylish and clutter-free office space. Those after a gentler start will find the cosy corner to be perfectly suited for morning coffee and catching up on literature. Last... but not least, the home boasts an incredible view of The Shard that's too good to miss.
