So close to London’s most famous theatres you can practically hear the chorus lines being belted out, this home on Shaftesbury Avenue puts you right at the heart of the West End. Sitting right across from the Sondheim and Apollo theatres, this bright and modern home is the perfect base for those looking to be in the centre of the city’s action. With its sleek monochrome decor, parquet floors and large windows giving way to theatre district views, this home will definitely give you something to sing about. Enjoy breakfast in the bright, modern kitchen before heading out to explore the sights. Leicester Square, Chinatown and Soho are all within a five-minute walk from your home, while Covent Garden’s cobbled streets are a ten-minute stroll away. After a day of shopping along Oxford Street (twelve minutes away), or wandering through Green Park (a fifteen-minute walk), come back home for a glass of wine on the sofa before catching a star-studded show at one of the countless venues on your doorstep. When it’s time to turn in, two elegantly pared-back rooms wait to drift you into a blissful night’s sleep, making you relaxed and ready for your encore the next day....

Local guide
About The West End
The West End is about as central as it gets, hundreds of restaurants and bars on your doorstep and you might even see the lights of Shaftesbury Avenue (London's Broadway) blinking through your curtains. It's certainly conveniently located for flopping into bed after seeing a show, but be warned you will be sharing the area with quite a lot of tourists and you won't find many proper Londoners or signs...
