Sleek, modern and wonderfully colourful, this Soho apartment is as stylish as it is ideally located. Just a four-minute walk from Piccadilly Circus, you’ll hardly know you’re in the heart of the city in this oasis of calm and tranquillity. Vibrant fabrics combine with palms, retro-chic furniture and large windows in the living room to create a mellow and inviting space, while the large kitchen’s balcony invites endless people-watching, a morning coffee or an evening cocktail in hand. The boutique-style bedrooms have an air of Gatsby elegance to them, with their Art Deco-inspired headboards and array of textured throws. And in all the rooms, you’ll be treated to a dazzling display of colourful art, from watercolours to collages, giving the home plenty of pizzazz. With some of London’s best theatres, shops, restaurants and bars all on your front door, this is the perfect base from which to experience the city in style.

Local guide
About Soho
Though there are still signs of its seedier past if you look hard enough, Soho is now home mainly to affluent young media types most of whom work in the area and who love the period townhouses, history-filled pubs, and buzzing independent restaurant scene. If you want to be in the thick of London's late-night bar scene and rubbing shoulders with London's hippest young things, then you're in the right place. If you want peace and quiet at the end of the day and are a light sleeper then you might want to look elsewhere.
