Located on a quiet mews in Bloomsbury, this stylish apartment provides an ideal base for a couple or solo traveller looking for a peaceful, central stay in one of London’s most culture-rich neighbourhoods. From its wood floors to its contemporary furnishings and large windows letting in ample light, there’s a suave sophistication to the open-plan living area that will make you feel right at home. We love the decorative touches that have been carefully curated to bring character to the room, from the abstract art to the houseplants and sheepskin rug that add a sense of flair to the proceedings. The modern kitchen is glossy and sleek, while the bathroom invites endless relaxation under its luxurious rainfall shower. Finally, the bedroom – with its sumptuous bed and French doors giving way to a Juliet balcony – provides a dreamy canvas for a blissful night’s sleep. Outside of your home, you’ve got plenty of sights and entertainment on hand, including the Charles Dickens Museum (a three-minute walk), the Postal Museum (a six-minute walk), the British Museum (a thirteen-minute walk) and St Paul’s Cathedral (a twenty-minute walk).
