In the heart of Bloomsbury, one of London’s most authentic and central neighbourhoods, here you'll be within striking distance of Russell Square, and just across the street from Tavistock Square Gardens. This smart apartment is set in one of the area's typical buildings – with bedrooms at the back promising peace and quiet. Neat and practical, it's a great option for a family trip to London or a business stay. Dark wood floors and comfy sofas in the open-plan living space and joined by a dining table for up to four and a sleek, well kitted-out kitchen (hello waste disposal unit). Ride downstairs in your private lift, step outside and you'll be close to popular tourist attractions, such as the British Museum, the Postal Museum and the Charles Dickens Museum. You can easily walk to tonnes of brilliant restaurants, from high-end to local favourites, or hop on the Tube at nearby Russell Square and explore the rest of the city with ease.
