Charming 2 bedroom 2 bathroom flat near Oxford St

First Impressions

When I first walked up to Charming 2 bedroom 2 bathroom flat near Oxford St on Charlotte Street, I honestly wasn’t sure what to expect from an apartment rental. But the moment I stepped inside this four-star place, I got it — sometimes you need more space than a hotel room can offer, especially when you’re planning to actually live in London for a few days rather than just crash there.

The Space That Actually Works

The layout here makes sense in a way that most London accommodations don’t. You’ve got two proper bedrooms — not one real bedroom and a glorified closet — and two full bathrooms, which means no awkward morning queues if you’re traveling with friends or family. The kitchen is actually functional too, not just a sad little kitchenette with a mini-fridge, so you can cook real meals if you want to save some money or just fancy a proper breakfast.

Charlotte Street Location

Here’s what I love about Charlotte Street — it’s close enough to Oxford Street that you can walk there in about five minutes, but far enough away that you’re not dealing with the absolute chaos of tourists and street performers at all hours. You know what’s really handy? Goodge Street station is right there, and you can get pretty much anywhere in London without having to do the whole “change three times” dance that some areas force on you.

The Neighborhood Feel

The thing about this part of Fitzrovia is that it feels like actual London, not just tourist London. There’s a proper pub on the corner, some decent coffee shops that locals actually use, and you can pop into the little Sainsbury’s for groceries without it being a whole expedition. During the day, Charlotte Street has this nice creative energy — lots of media offices and design studios around — but it settles down nicely in the evenings.

Why Guests Love It

With a 9.3 rating, this place clearly works for people, and I can see why. It’s that sweet spot between having your own space and being right in the thick of things — you can spread out your stuff, cook when you feel like it, but still walk to the British Museum or hop on the Tube to wherever. The two bathrooms thing might seem minor until you’re actually sharing the space, then it becomes brilliant. Plus, there’s something satisfying about having a proper address on Charlotte Street rather than just being “hotel guests” for a week.

Locals suggest to book apartments in London around South Bank for riverside dining, market stops, and easy city crossings.
