Modern and bright, this apartment is close to several restaurants and cafes. But the proximity to some of London's most iconic sights is what makes it feel special, including Borough Market, the Tate Modern, and Tower Bridge. Though it's still roomy enough for six, we think this works best for a small family or two couples. If you do choose to sleep two additional guests on the sofa bed, you can always find extra breathing room on the terrace. It overlooks neighbours and isn't the most private, but it is a nice bonus – especially in central London.

Home truths:
*At full occupancy, two guests will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living area. *Parking in London can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to easily accessible public transport where possible. *It's possible you may hear some noise from neighbours during your stay, as well as noise from the street . *The outdoor space is overlooked by other apartments and might not feel the most private. *This is a single-level home. *You'll find a welcome gift here. Your host also provides a starter supply of coffee and toiletries. The nearest supermarket for stocking up is a four-minute walk away.
