If you're planning a stay in the city, you'll be hard-pressed to find anywhere more central. This stylish apartment is spacious, beautifully furnished and a real oasis of calm considering its location. It's right on the buzzing Charing Cross Road, packed with eateries, pubs and shops – there's even a London theatre a few doors away.
The high ceilings, white walls and wood floors provide a modern, minimalist canvas but the home's soft furnishings add plenty of colour, with orange, green and blue touches. Flooded with natural light thanks to some impressive arched windows, it's a bright, comfortable base for a family or a few friends, with two bathrooms and three good size bedrooms. There's a sociable spot to cook and eat together, as well as all the kitchen kit you'll need, but the list of easily walkable restaurants must go into triple digits. Stride to Leicester Square in a matter of moments, explore the delights of Covent Garden and visit Chinatown – the city is at your fingertips.
Home truths: *You're asked to show respect to the residents of this building by being quiet in the halls.
*Though there's enough bed space for six people here, we'd recommend a maximum guest count of four adults and one child.
*A cot and high chair can be provided on request – you'll need to bring your own bedding.
*Toiletries aren't provided, so you'll need to bring your own.
*This home is in a very central spot so light sleepers may be troubled by the noise from the street.
*We noticed some scratches on the wood floors when we visited.
*Occasionally the lift may be out of use.
