About this property

Spectacular views of the Tower of London and river Thames

We are pleased to offer you our two bedroom spacious self-catering apartment in this Edwardian building, located close by the River Thames, with the world-famous Tower of London literally across the road, and the iconic Tower Bridge as our backdrop.

Our two-bedroom apartment has a standard occupancy of 4 guests but can comfortably sleep up to 6 people (there is a small surcharge of £15 per person per night for the 5th and 6th guests). We can also provide an additional travel cot - suitable for a for a baby up to approx 12 months’ old - (available on request). The apartment is thoroughly cleaned before and after you leave. Please note that an additional cleaning of £70 per stay is payable in cash to our housekeeper at check-in.

The apartment is elegantly furnished, providing high-quality amenities and excellent value for money, given our prestigious location next door to the Four Seasons hotel in Tower Hill. It is ideal for both business and leisure visitors alike. For business visitors, the City of London financial district is on our doorstep. For leisure visitors, Tower Hill’s environs are steeped in history, from Roman times on wards, through the invasion of William the Conqueror, to the terrible exploits of Jack the Ripper, a short distance east in Whitechapel. We then come right up to the present-day architecture of the Shard and the Gherkin, both of which are within less than a mile’s radius and easily accessible, by public transport, taxi or on foot.

The area is well served by literally 100's of local restaurants to suit all budgets and sophisticated wine bars and London pubs. Sight seeing and the Theatres of the West-End are easily accessible by tube, bus or short cab ride. We aim to ensure that our apartments feel like your home away from home and our location next to the majestic Tower of London will leave you with fantastic memories and wanting to return!

The views from each room within this elegant apartment located on the 3rd floor (with lift) of this small, quiet and exclusive residential building is spectacular. The nearby Thames path enable guests to take a relaxing walk along the embankment and take in magnificent views as they walk to nearby St Paul's Cathedral, The Tate Modern, Covent Garden and the West End beyond.

Tower Hill has an abundance of high quality restaurants, which cater to every palate and every wallet. A short stroll past the 'Beef Eaters' (guards of the Tower and the Crown Jewels) you will find St Katherine's Dock filled with swanky private yachts as well a wide selection of trendy eateries. Just across Tower Bridge at Butlers Wharf you will find Sir Terrance Conran's famous group of restaurants including 'Pont De La Tour' (Fish) and the 'Chop House' (contemporary English food). Both these locations offer alfresco dining by the river for that perfect romantic and memorable evening spent watching the world go by with friends and family.

Perfect for sightseeing and business trips: From our apartment you can easily visit all the famous sites without need for a car. Trafalgar Square, Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament are approximately a 7 minute journey by Tube or 20 minutes by bus. This means that guests can easily access to the main tourist attractions such as St Paul's cathedral, Buckingham Palace, Trafalgar Square, Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament, as well as the National Gallery and British museum etc. Harrods and the hustle and bustle of all shopping along Oxford, Regent and Bond Streets are also a short journey by tube or bus but Tower Hill and the City also provide an extensive choice of shopping close by. The tour buses pass outside our front door if you want the thrill of seeing the sights from the famous London Red Bus!

The apartment is easily accessible from London's main airports (Heathrow, Gatwick, Luton and Stansted) by Tube, rail or bus within an hour. The new Elizabeth line trains make the journey from Heathrow a lot quicker than previously. London City airport is just 25 mins using the Dockland Light railway.

Beautiful view

The apt view is what it’s all about. I like the location because of bus and tube locations. The apt is starting to show its age. The twin bed made into a double sagging in the middle and the pillows were thin and lumpy, the wifi is weak, the tv remote may have needed new batteries, the toilet flush was temperamental. But you can get over this for the view.
