Within short walking distance from some of London's most famous attractions (including The British Museum, Hyde Park and Oxford Street) – if you're in town to explore the sights, then in terms of location, it doesn't get much better than this. Despite this spot's uber-central address, the street is surprisingly quiet – although we'd still recommend packing earplugs if you're a light sleeper, as the distant city buzz doesn't tend to rest around here. Meanwhile, those in town on business will find a designated desk area in the bedroom with space to set up a laptop. With comfort and practicality at the centre of the apartment's designs, guests are invited to enjoy a fuss-free stay with a touch of modern luxury.

Home truths:
*The entrance to this home is shared with the building's other residents *There's a dedicated desk here if you need to catch up on some work during your stay *Parking in London can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to the easily accessible public transport where possible – though we think the best way to see the city is on foot *This home is in a central spot, so noise is to be expected *We think the kitchen is better suited to lighter bites than large meals *This is a basement apartment – therefore, you'll need to climb one flight of stairs *Self-check-in is available here *At full occupancy, one guest will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living area
