Brand new Apartment 2bed-2bathroom luxury house
First Impressions
Walking up to Brand new Apartment 2bed-2bathroom luxury house on City Road, you immediately get that “this is going to be good” feeling. The building has this sleek, modern facade that stands out from the typical London Victorian terraces nearby, and honestly, it looks like they’ve just finished construction — everything feels crisp and untouched. The entrance is understated but clearly upscale, which sets the right tone before you even step inside.
Location & Neighborhood
Islington is one of those areas that locals love but tourists often overlook, which actually works in your favor. You’re a quick walk from Angel tube station, and the Upper Street stretch has some genuinely excellent pubs and restaurants that haven’t been completely overrun by crowds. What I really appreciated was being close enough to central London without dealing with the chaos — you can get to King’s Cross in about 10 minutes, but when you come home at night, it feels like you’re in a proper neighborhood rather than tourist central.
The Apartment Experience
This four-star place delivers exactly what it promises — two proper bedrooms and two full bathrooms, which is honestly a game-changer if you’re traveling with friends or family. The apartment feels genuinely spacious by London standards, and I mean that. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you’d actually need, not just the bare minimum that some places throw in. You know what struck me most? The attention to detail in the finishes — the fixtures, the flooring, even the light switches feel considered and quality.
Living Comforts
Each room has been designed with actual living in mind rather than just looking good in photos. The beds are properly comfortable (I’m picky about mattresses), and there’s enough storage space that you can actually unpack your suitcase. The bathrooms have decent water pressure — something you don’t realize you miss until you’re standing under a pathetic dribble somewhere else. The whole place stays quiet too, which surprised me given that City Road can get busy during the day.
Why Guests Love It
With a 9.3 rating, it’s clear this place consistently hits the mark, and I can see why. It’s that sweet spot where everything just works without being fussy or over-designed. You get the space and independence of having your own place, but with the quality and service standards you’d expect from a proper hotel. For London, where decent accommodation can cost a fortune and still disappoint, finding somewhere that delivers on both comfort and value feels like striking gold.
You'll need to let the property know in advance what time you'll arrive.
