Photos and Description of this London holiday apartment Bright, modern apartment with garden, sleeps 2-4

Close to London's historic heart, this very popular modern apartment is a five-minute walk from the Tower of the London, the River Thames and many of London's top tourist attractions. It is on a quiet, private street, but just a few minutes walk from a large supermarket, local shops and post office, bars and restaurants. Tower Hill tube station is 8-10 minutes walk away and public transport links are very good. The apartment was recently refurbished to the highest standards with a wall-mounted foldaway double bed and a double sofa bed - ideal for 2 people, but still comfortable for 4. The living room is light and spacious with digital TV and DVD. The bathroom has under-floor heating, a powerful shower and hairdryer; the kitchen is fully equipped with a refrigerator, oven, microwave and washing machine. The apartment has central heating and a garden with BBQ. All bedding is provided, as well as a welcome basket of groceries. We accept all credit and debit cards via Paypal.

Wapping is on the edge of London's financial heart, the City but even closer to the capital's most famous landmarks. The Tower of London and Tower Bridge are a short walk away and the nearby banks of the River Thames are dotted with some of Britain's oldest pubs. Charles Dickens set many of his novels in and around Wapping. River taxis stop here, taking visitors by boat east to Canary Wharf or west to the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben. The nearest Tube stations are Tower Hill and Shadwell (DLR). Liverpool Street, with a fast service to Stansted Airport, is a short bus ride away. Both City Airport and the Excel exhibition centre are easily reached by DLR from Shadwell. Walking is easy too, and most of London's attractions, such as St Paul's, the Tate Modern and the London Eye are a comfortable stroll away. Use these links to find out more about the area:

A perfect base for our London holiday

Brissy girl Brisbane, Australia
Review Submitted: January 8, 2009 Date of Stay: November 2008
My sister, daughter and I spent two idyllic weeks in London and were so happy to have found this lovely little apartment! Everything was as described and the studio was both clean and very well maintained. The shower was fine; the water pressure was quite sufficient. The fold down bed was very comfortable and the linen was clean and in good condition. We particularly enjoyed our walk to and from the apartment each day past the ornamental canal and St Katharine's Dock. A terrific supermarket, Waitrose, was a short walk away and the 100 bus was very useful. The compact kitchen was perfect for preparing meals, snacks etc. Linda was particularly helpful when we had trouble with the TV, a little problem which was easily fixed. We appreciated the bread, milk and wine - a nice touch. We would have no hesitation in returning to this little gem on our next trip to London and have already recommended it to friends who are planning a trip. Kate, Brisbane, Australia.

appartement bien situé et bien équipé dans un quartier calme, même si nous n'avons pas vu la propriétaire elle avait prévu du lait, du pain de mie, une bouteille de vin et tout le nécessaire de base ce qui très agréable. Le confort est sommaire mais suffisant pour quelques jours avec des enfants

Great alternative to a hotel or hostel

10-Day Stay Melbourne, Australia
Review Submitted: October 22, 2008 Date of Stay: October 2008
This property is exactly as described - clean, larger than a hotel room and less than a 10 minute walk from Tower Hill station. All bathroom amenities and some food supplied. Yes, the water pressure in the shower is not the best, but you can still shower!

I think the person who wrote the negative review is seriously deluded about the standard of accomodation it is possible to get in central London for this price!

I will definitely be recommending this apartment to anyone travelling to London.
