Great location, great host, extremely quiet

This property is in an ideal location between 2 underground stations, servicing different lines. It is also on the #94 bus route (on Bayswater Rd), which takes you down to Oxford Street and Regent Street. Yet despite being very central, it is dead quiet. It was clean and comfortable, and the host and his assistant were terrific. We would stay here again. We had dinner at the Mandarin Kitchen and enjoyed it. There is also a two grocery stores within a few steps. London can be overwhelming, and this flat provided a nice refuge at the end of the day.

Perfectly located apartment in the heart of London

This apartment is at a perfect location very close to two underground stations. Most of the sights are easily accessible through the underground. The beautiful Hyde Park and Kensington Palace are a easy stroke away. There are many decent restaurants and convenience stores on the street steps away from the apartment, yet the apartment itself is nice and quite. The host Rafael is extremely helpful. He sent very detailed directions to reach the flat from the airport and wonderful information and recommendations about the neighborhood. We feel very fortunate to have found this little gem, thank you Rafael!

Londra settembre 2018

Ringrazio innanzitutto Rafael (il proprietario) per la sua disponibilità ad esaudire tutte le nostre richieste e per averci dato consigli utili su come muoversi a Londra; per quanto riguarda l'appartamento lo abbiamo trovato fedele a come era stato descrittto ( pulito, accogliente e dotato di tutto il necessario per un buon soggiorno). Ottima la vicinanza a 2 stazioni metro ( Bayswater e Queensway) praticamente sotto l'edificio. L' appartamento rimane molto tranquillo anche se inserito in un quartiere molto vivace dove c'è praticamente tutto a portata di mano. Consiglio la permanenza in questa zona ed in questo appartamento per chi vuole conoscere bene questa stupenda città e saluto Rafael rigraziandolo di nuovo sperando di poter tornare. Antonio & Family

Great Apartment in a Great Location

This is a great apartment....great location, quiet, and plenty of room to spread out. Convenient to good restaurants, food stores, as well as a very short walk to two tube stations for exploring London. Given we were there during a heat wave, we can say that the apartment stayed relatively comfortable and the tower fans with the windows open allowed everyone to sleep comfortably. We would definitely stay here again!

Great location, excellent apartment and superb host

Well, what can we add more... only pros, no cons. Just read the former reviews and believe, you have found the gem. You definitely get all that positive mentioned by previous users. Many thanks, Rafael!

Great location, safe, maintenance not ideal

The dishwasher had been corroded for a couple years, at least, according to the repairman. It had numerous holes in the bottom and underbody, but the owner hadn’t replaced it and I was told it had been leaking water. It was broken when we arrived; we discovered standing water inside that smelled very rank and when I ran it, it leaked water all over the floor. Wasn’t replaced during our 8-day stay. Owner needs to keep appliances in good working order. Rafael didn’t look at it when we arrived, although the cleaner reported the problem. Rafael assumed it was as before, there had been some water in it. If you don’t cook on holiday, this wouldn’t likely be an issue.

Exactly as advertised

the location is excellent; surrounded by a variety of restaurants, supermarket, , 2 metro stations etc. The apartment had all the amenities required to make a comfortable visit. Daniel was an amazing host, communicating all the time. The amazing thing about this property is that it is exactly as advertised, I would not hesitate to stay there again and again.

Impecable interior y excelente ubicación.

Este apartamento ha demostrado ser el punto excelente de referencia para nuestra estancia en Londres, una base ideal para mi familia poder explorar la ciudad por completo en el limitado tiempo de una semana, ya que la ubicación es inmejorable a tan solo pasos de dos líneas de metro y varias de autobuses, que de hecho permiten bomber a casa a comer si se desea y continuar explorando por la tarde noche después de descansar un rato,! Nunca pensé que pudiese hacer esto en una ciudad de tal tamaño. Rafael ha sido un anfitrión perfecto, acomodando nuestra llegada de manera óptima y permitiéndonos uso del apartamento antes de la hora de check in, lo cual viajando desde Buenos Aires con dos pequeños ha sido muy de agradecer, ha dado ideas para actividades, restaurantes etc y ha hecho nuestra estancia perfecta. Gracias mil! Charles y familia.

The perfect girls pad...

My three best friends forever and myself have just returned from a Europe trip...London was our last stop and Rafael's apartment our choice based on previous amazing reviews. This place was awesome, so well located and clean that we did not want to leave the house but only stay in having a nice cocoa and enjoying films in Netflix ( thanks for that, Rafael! ) We enjoyed it tremendously and hope to be back soon. Book it now! Margot, Pixie, Sirene and Lucy.

The perfect pied-à-terre in London!

Excellent pied à terre whilst visiting London!

Delightfully decorated, this superbly located apartment provided all we needed for a fantastic seven nights stay in this wonderful City. Rafael, his owner, showed great customer care skills and his responses to our queries were always rapidly and efficiently produced. Dolly, his boots on the ground presence and a very charming lady, assisted us and showed us around on arrival. In summary, a great experience that we would recommend to other travellers without the cast of a doubt. Helmut Van H.

Home, home, home...

We have just returned from a six nights stay in Rafael's apartment and our experience has been flawless. He is the perfect, caring, yet discretely not present host who made all arrangements for a very smooth check. He also provided a welcome pack prior to our arrival, which included loads of tips on transport, restayrants, coffee shops, must sees, days out and every single bit of information on the property and its surrounding...which made us feel like we had lived there forerver from the moment we arrived. The property is impecably clean, confortable and superbly located steps from two underground stations, bus stops and Hyde Park. Home, home, home...Luciana, Gino and little Portia.

Overall satisfaction guaranteed in this inmaculately presented apartment in the best location you will find in London...Everything, and I mean, everything is just steps away including, shops, restaurant, two Underground stops and several bus stops...not to mention Hyde Park at the end of the street! Awesome. Lucia B

Wonderful Christmas!

A Season to remember, not only for the beautiful Christmas decorations arranged by Rafael in the apartment but also for his kindness and "savoir faire" when due to a severe delay to our flight we thought that we would spend Christmas at the airport. Rafael arranged a very late check in for us and provided useful information for Taxi Services helping us to get home just on time to welcome 2018...Beautiful apartment, vibrant neighbourhood and the best location you can imagine....a Season to remember indeed!

Warm and homy base in central London...

I chose this vacation home recommended by relatives who stayed on another of Rafael's apartments last spring, so I knew that I would make the right choice. He is a delight to deal with, helpful, caring and covered any question we may have with a useful information email sent prior to arrival...He even decorated the apartment with some light and tasteful Christmas decorations which were very welcome in the Season! The apartment is beautiful, exactly as shown in the pictures, cosy, warm, spacious and a perfect base for travelers due to its awesome location. Would recommend it to anyone, no doubt about that, and I hope to return sometime next year. Alfred B

Very comfortable, quiet, great base for tourists!

Great spot for exploring the city and amazing transport links, including access from Heathrow airport and to Gatwick, our airports of choice. Tips and suggestions offered by the owner were appreciated and helped us to maximise our time in London. Apartment is quiet, spacious and comfortable for our group of four, as well as superbly located in between two underground stations ( both 50 meters away ) and right next to what is surely one of the most beautiful parks in the world, Hyde Park. P.K.

Excellent location, spacious quarters, and a very accommodating host who manages the house professionally yet in a very trendy manner...we appreciated being able to leave our luggage in the apartment beyond the usual check in time and at no extra charge....these little details do make a difference and provide a great experience.
