Overview

First Impressions

When I first spotted Central Location 2BR Flat Near Angel & City Centre on Chapel Market, I’ll admit I was a bit skeptical — the name sounds more like a Craigslist ad than a proper hotel. But honestly, sometimes the most straightforward names tell you exactly what you’re getting, and that’s precisely the case here. This four-star property sits right in the heart of Islington, and you know what? It actually delivers on that “central location” promise without any marketing fluff.

The Neighborhood Advantage

Chapel Market itself is this wonderfully scruffy street market that’s been around forever — think proper London character, not tourist trap nonsense. You’re literally a two-minute walk from Angel tube station, which means you can be in King’s Cross in about ten minutes or central London in fifteen. What I really love though is how you’re surrounded by proper local life — there’s a brilliant little Lebanese place just down the street, and the old-school pie shop that locals queue up for every lunchtime.

The Flat Experience

The two-bedroom setup works brilliantly if you’re traveling with family or friends who actually want some space to breathe. Each room feels properly sized — not those cramped hotel boxes you sometimes get — and the living area gives everyone somewhere to collapse after a day of sightseeing. The kitchen isn’t massive, but it’s got everything you need if you want to grab some bits from Chapel Market and cook breakfast instead of paying London restaurant prices every morning.

Practical Matters

Look, I’m not going to pretend this place has a fancy spa or marble everything — it’s more about getting the basics absolutely right. The Wi-Fi actually works properly (which isn’t always a given), the heating keeps things cozy during those damp London months, and there’s decent storage space for your stuff. The 8.5 rating makes sense because it’s one of those places that just… works, you know? No nasty surprises, no “oh, the photos were misleading” moments.

Why Guests Love It

Honestly, it comes down to location and value — two things that are pretty hard to find together in London these days. You’re close enough to walk into the City for work meetings, but far enough from the tourist chaos to feel like you’re experiencing actual London life. The flat gives you flexibility that hotel rooms simply can’t match, and Chapel Market provides this lovely slice of authentic London character that you’d miss if you stayed somewhere more obviously touristy. It’s not trying to be something it isn’t, which in a city full of overpriced disappointments, feels refreshingly honest.

"We enjoyed staying there very much. I felt it was a great value for the price we paid and everything went well. It was j"
The location was great— close to both the bus stop and the tube. Central as far as places to go. Been responded quickly to any questions or concerns we had. I felt it was a great value for the price to have a2bedroom flat in central London.
What could be improved: It’s up two flights of narrow stairs. The bathroom is very small, but adequate.

"Comfortable stay in a fantastic location"
We had a lovely stay at this 2-bedroom apartment in a fantastic location just a short walk from Angel Tube Station. It’s perfectly placed for exploring London, with easy access to all the main tourist sites. The apartment sits above a shop on Chapel Market, a lively area during the day, yet surprisingly quiet at night—ensuring an undisturbed night’s sleep. Inside, the apartment was nicely presented with very comfortable beds and a modern kitchenette equipped with all the basics we needed, including a convenient coffee machine. The space felt welcoming and practical for a short stay. The host was very responsive and helpful, especially when we requested a few additional items. All in all, it was a comfortable stay in a brilliant location. We’d happily return.
What could be improved: The only downsides were the bathroom, which was quite compact, and the narrow stairwell leading up to the apartment. However, neither of these impacted our overall experience.

"Lovely apartment in a fantastic location for exploring London"
The accommodation was very clean and tidy, the kitchen area had everything needed, the bedding and towels were all clean and fresh and the apartment is in a fantastic location. Easy access to shops, market and angel tube station. WiFi was good quality and strong. Communication from the owner was fantastic throughout. A lovely little spot for exploring everything that London has to offer.
What could be improved: Our only issue was that the pull out bed in the front room wasn't very comfortable for adults. This was mentioned to the owner during our stay and they are going to look into it (couldn't ask for more). We couldn't find any photos of the bathroom online and on arrival could see why as it is more of a cupboard at the top of the stairs however, it is clean, tidy and equipped with everything necessary it certainly wouldn't have put us off booking if we had seen pictures of it. Perhaps needs mentioning in the description that there are 2 flights of stairs to the apartment, again not an issue for us but might be for others.
