Overview

First Impressions

Best Location 2 Bedr, 3 Beds, Covent Grdn, China Town sits right on Shaftesbury Avenue, and honestly, you can’t get much more central than this. The moment you step inside this four-star apartment, you realize you’ve scored big time — three proper beds spread across two bedrooms, which means no one’s fighting over who gets the sofa bed. It’s one of those places where the name actually delivers on its promise.

The Space

The apartment feels surprisingly spacious for London standards, and I mean that in the best way possible. The main bedroom has this comfortable setup that doesn’t feel cramped, while the second room works perfectly whether you’re traveling with kids or just want some extra space to spread out. You know what really impressed me? The kitchen is actually functional — not just some tiny corner with a kettle and a prayer.

Location Magic

Here’s where this place really shines: you’re literally a two-minute walk from Covent Garden’s buzzing market, and China Town is right there whenever you need proper dumplings at midnight. The theaters are so close you could practically roll out of bed and catch a West End show. Leicester Square tube station is just around the corner, which saves you from those expensive cab rides across town.

The Neighborhood Feel

Shaftesbury Avenue has this energy that never really stops — street performers, late-night restaurant options, and that classic London theater district buzz. During the day, you’ve got tourists wandering around taking photos, but honestly, it doesn’t feel overwhelming. The area sort of balances that touristy excitement with actual London life happening all around you.

Why Guests Love It

People keep coming back here because it solves that classic London problem — finding decent space without paying hotel prices for multiple rooms. The 8.9 rating makes sense when you consider you’re getting three beds, a proper kitchen, and you can walk to pretty much everything worth seeing in central London. I actually met other guests in the hallway who were on their third stay here, which tells you something about how well this place works for families or groups who want to stay together without cramming into a tiny hotel room.

"Great stay"
Location was convenient. Clean apartment. Bedrooms comfortable. Lovely and warm.
What could be improved: The living room area was noisy at night if you needed to use the sofa bed as an extra bedroom.

"This was the perfect place to enjoy London's West End and the Palace Theatre."
I like the easy booking. The autonomous check-in process was also easy to follow. Communication was clear, concise and no unecessary questions or extra back and forth. The property itself is great! The best part is the location, walking distance to everything and super convenient. Inside the old English charm comes to life with the solid doors, and wood floors. Kitchen appliances are updated and the beds felt just like home. WiFi and TV were easy to use, coffee and tea provided.
What could be improved: I can't think of anything I would improve upon. The apartment really had everything I could want and more. I definitely recommend this property to anyone looking for a convenient downtown London location.

"Nice 2 night stay in London."
The place was spacious and tidy. It has all the basic amenities needed in the kitchen and bathroom. Really comfortable stay in the heart of London close to Chinatown and theatres.
What could be improved: I needed to provide passport images for all of us, which I think is too much to ask for. I offered to provide it as long as I can redact some of the information and they were happy to accept. I wish there was another way to prove we're decent people, as this added stress for us.
