While this is a purpose-built flat, rather than someone’s well-loved home, we were impressed with the overall feel. It succeeds in its goal of being a stylish and modern option for a fuss-free stay in the city. The interior has a neutral colour palette, with leather, marble and steel finishes, and furnishings such as the contemporary chairs and sculptural light fittings let you know that someone has taken great care in choosing all the elements. The balcony ensures you have access to an all-too-rare private outdoor space that's perfect for a morning coffee or evening tipple. With a gorgeous lobby, twenty-four-hour concierge and communal gym access – this home offers all the benefits of a hotel stay with none of the downsides. So lace up your bovver boots and stomp the streets. Where once you would've found punks with wood-glued mohawks, now you'll find the market packed with fancy food stalls. However, the historic pubs and legendary music venues remain – all within a ten-minute walk of your Camden crashpad.
