Entire house floor perfect for couples & freelancers – available for single too
First Impressions
Entire house floor perfect for couples & freelancers – available for single too sits on a quiet residential street in London’s Mitcham area, and honestly, the name pretty much tells you everything you need to know. This four-star property gives you an entire floor of a Victorian house to yourself, which feels like having your own London flat without the commitment. The moment I walked up Hawthorne Avenue, I could tell this wasn’t your typical tourist zone — it’s proper residential London, with tree-lined streets and that peaceful vibe you don’t often find this close to central London.
The Space
What struck me immediately was how much room you actually get here. The entire floor layout means you’re not cramped into a standard hotel box — there’s a proper living area, separate bedroom, and a compact kitchenette that’s actually functional (I made coffee every morning without feeling like I was performing surgery). The Victorian bones of the building give it character, with high ceilings and those chunky window frames that make you feel properly settled in London. You know what really sold me? The fact that it works equally well whether you’re here with someone or flying solo.
Location & Getting Around
Mitcham might not be Zone 1, but that’s actually part of its charm. You’re about 20 minutes from central London by tram — and the tram stop is a genuine five-minute walk, not the hotel marketing version of five minutes. The area has that South London residential feel, with proper local pubs and a Sainsbury’s nearby for essentials. I found myself enjoying the morning walk to grab coffee and a paper, something you definitely can’t do in touristy areas without dodging crowds.
Perfect For Digital Nomads
If you’re working remotely, this place actually gets it. The WiFi is solid (I was on video calls without issues), and there’s proper desk space that doesn’t involve hunching over a tiny hotel table. The separate living area means you can mentally clock off work and move to the sofa — small thing, but it matters when you’re mixing business with travel. The kitchen setup lets you make proper meals too, which saves money and honestly just feels more normal when you’re staying longer than a weekend.
Why Guests Love It
That 9.7 rating isn’t an accident — this place delivers on its promise without trying to be something it’s not. It’s not flashy or Instagram-perfect, but it gives you space, peace, and the feeling of actually living in London rather than just visiting. The host clearly understands that sometimes travelers want a base that feels like home, whether you’re here for work, romance, or just need somewhere quiet to decompress. For the price point in London, getting an entire floor to yourself is pretty remarkable, and the Mitcham location means you’re experiencing a slice of real London life.
London’s hotels wrap guests in heritage townhouses, theatre-district energy, and concierge-curated Thames cruises.
