Overview
First Impressions
F3 Greek Street by City Living London sits right in the thick of Soho, and honestly, you can’t get much more central than this. The building itself is classic London — narrow, unassuming from the outside, but step inside and you realize this four-star property knows exactly what it’s doing. It’s one of those places that feels like a well-kept secret, even though you’re literally surrounded by some of London‘s busiest streets.
Location & Neighborhood
Greek Street is actually perfect if you want to be in the middle of everything without staying in some massive tourist trap. You’ve got Chinatown practically at your doorstep, Covent Garden is a five-minute walk, and the West End theaters are so close you could probably hear the applause from your window. I mean, there’s something pretty great about being able to grab dim sum at 2 PM, catch a show at 7:30, and stumble back to your room without needing the tube.
The Accommodation
The apartments here are what really set this place apart from your typical hotel. Each unit comes with a proper kitchen — not some sad mini-fridge situation, but actual cooking space with everything you need. The design is modern without trying too hard, lots of clean lines and thoughtful touches that make you feel like you’re staying in a friend’s really nice flat rather than a generic hotel room.
Practical Perks
What I really appreciate is how they’ve thought about the details. The wifi actually works (which, let’s be honest, isn’t always a given), and having that kitchen means you can avoid London’s restaurant prices for at least a few meals. There’s no on-site restaurant, but with Borough Market just across the river and about a thousand dining options within walking distance, that’s hardly a problem. Plus, the staff genuinely seems to know the neighborhood — they’ll point you toward the good coffee shops, not just the obvious tourist spots.
Why Guests Love It
This place works because it gives you the independence of having your own space while keeping you right in the heart of everything that makes London exciting. The 8.2 rating makes sense when you consider you’re getting apartment-style living in one of the city’s most vibrant neighborhoods. You know what’s nice? Walking out your front door and immediately being part of Soho’s energy, but then having a quiet, comfortable space to retreat to when you need a break from all that chaos.
Guest reviews
"Good location but no aircon"
This apartment is in a really great location and isn’t super loud at night in the bedroom. Walking distance to main train stations which was super useful.
What could be improved: The property listing states that there is aircon however there isn’t and it’s only a standing fan. We booked this place because it had aircon and was just lucky we weren’t there through a heatwave.

"Great place for me. Not recommended for women."
Great location in SOHO. Pre-arrival communication was excellent. Very comfortable and clean. Kitchen well equipped. SOHO is noisy. I was impressed with the soundproofing. The mgmt company is doing many things very well.
What could be improved: Not safe for single women.
The outside door is very difficult to open. You must press the final button on the lock keypad at the exact moment you throw your body weight into the door to get it open. Yes, it's that difficult.
Because of this, it's impossible to block the keypad code from anyone standing in the alley.
Also, because the door doesn't work well, it does not fully close without a solid push or pull. Looking at the door, it's not obvious that it's open. Consider a guest in another apartment might not notice.
I found the outside door open several times when I left the building.
The inside door to the apartment is very solid and has two locks. I'm a big guy and don't travel with expensive things. I would stay there again, but I would do all I could to stop any female friends from staying here on their own.
I gave the management company this feedback. Their reply was that the external door was fine as it is.

"Superb"
The location is excellent. Just less than 5 minutes walk to Soho. 5 minutes to Oxford St. The room is clean and tidy. There are some necessary utilities provided as well : oven, hob, fridge, washing machine.
What could be improved: If you sleep on the sofa bed, it is very noisy at night as there is a bar downstair. However, it is pretty quiet in the bedroom.
There is no lift and the stairs are very narrow. If you got big luggages, so be prepared on that.

"Excellent location, Spacious, Kitchen unit but noisy so bring a white noise machine or ear plugs"
LOCATION was unbeatable!! Spacious with a nice size refrigerator and great windows that open to give you fresh air and a view (but noisy)
You can walk everywhere BUT bring a noise machine and ear plugs as it’s Extremely noisy up to 4 am.
having a washer was great with a rack to dry
The kitchen was great with an oven, stovetop and was stocked with cooking supplies. we stayed over Christmas so it was only noisy a couple of nights. it was great having 2 rooms with plenty of room for luggage.
closet had a nice closet unit, a safe and an iron
What could be improved: NOISY in the front room but in the back they added a second window which helped but a white noise machine needed.The shower has very little little pressure which makes it hard for people with long hair to get the shampoo out.
they provide one tiny shampoo and one tiny body wash for 3 people
delay in response time during the day for questions expect an hour delay and not a quick answer
2 rolls of toilet paper so we ran out and had to search for a store
NO paper towels

"Passable"
Great location and plenty of room.
What could be improved: The safe locked and we couldn’t get money out for over 24 hours. We rang, messaged, emailed property, repair man etc and no response for over 24 hours. Caused a lot of stress.
