Not far from Big Ben, this central apartment is perfect for couples and commuters alike. There are excellent transport links here, with a bus stop right outside the building, and several tube stations within a ten-minute walk. While you'll have to climb the stairs, this third-floor home offers a bright base for city breaks, where you can skim the bookshelves, work at the desk, or soak in the bathtub. Plus, complimentary tea, coffee, and other basics are a nice touch to get you settled.

Home truths
There's no lift here. You'll need to be able to climb stairs to reach the entrance of the home.
Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.
You'll receive essential complimentary toiletries, tea, coffee, sugar, and some basic condiments to get you started.
Please keep noise to a minimum and refrain from playing music at antisocial hours, as this home is located within an apartment building.
The kitchen is lacking some basic crockery and cooking utensils, so it might not be the best choice if you're planning family meals in.

Local guide
About Kennington
Kennington is one of London's best kept secrets. It's famously home to the major cricket ground The Oval, but we're more interested in its Georgian architecture (check out the charming Cleaver Square, where you'll find locals playing boules and a cosy pub) and proximity to the cultural delights of the nearby South Bank. It's a diverse area, popular with young professionals and families alike - a good area to experience a taste of real London away from the tourists.
