Overview
First Impressions
Walking up to Luxury 3 bedroom, 3 bath apt by Oxford St & Soho on Eastcastle Street, you immediately get why this four-star place has such incredible ratings. The York House building has that classic London charm — you know, the kind where you feel like you’re stepping into someone’s actual home rather than a sterile hotel room. Honestly, the entrance feels more like visiting a well-connected friend than checking into accommodation.
Prime Central London Positioning
The location is honestly brilliant — I mean, you’re literally steps from Oxford Street’s shopping madness, but tucked away enough that you won’t hear the tourist crowds at night. London‘s Fitzrovia neighborhood has this perfect mix of local cafés and proper pubs that most visitors never discover. You can walk to Soho in about three minutes, which means incredible restaurants and that buzzing nightlife energy, but you’re also close to those quieter Georgian squares where locals actually hang out.
The Space Itself
What strikes you first is how spacious this apartment actually feels — three proper bedrooms and three full bathrooms means nobody’s fighting over mirror time in the morning. The kitchen is genuinely functional too, not just for show like some places. I actually used it to make proper breakfast instead of just heating up coffee, and there’s enough counter space to spread out if you’re planning a longer stay. The living areas have these big windows that let in tons of natural light, which honestly makes such a difference on those grey London days.
Local Neighborhood Gems
Here’s what I love about staying here — you’re surrounded by spots that feel authentically London without the tourist markup. There’s this little restaurant called Pied à Terre just around the corner that locals actually go to, and the Charlotte Street area has some of the best independent coffee shops in central London. The Goodge Street tube station is a quick walk, but honestly, most of Central London’s highlights are within walking distance anyway. You’ll find yourself just wandering through different neighborhoods because everything connects so naturally from here.
Why Guests Love It
The 9.9 rating makes complete sense once you’ve stayed here — it’s that rare combination of prime location, actual space to breathe, and thoughtful touches that make you feel settled rather than just passing through. The building has character but also modern conveniences, and there’s something about having your own front door key that just feels different from traditional hotel stays. Plus, having three bathrooms means you can actually invite friends over for drinks without anyone waiting in line — which is pretty much unheard of in central London accommodation.
Guest reviews
"Wonderful location Fabulous host"
❤️ the central location. Walking distance to so many places. Surrounded by great restaurants and pubs. Fari is a super host: friendly, communicative, and helpful. We are a family of 6 adults and the apt was comfortable for our group. We had a great time. Will definitely book again if we go to London.
What could be improved: Noises from the street late at night or early in the morning, but this is because the apt is in the heart of a bustling neighborhood. Can't help. 😀

"10/10, would do again!"
We had a wonderful stay at this three-bedroom, three-bathroom apartment with a fully equipped kitchen and a spacious living room. The location was perfect, with easy access to public transport and a vibrant, lively neighborhood. Fari gave us a warm welcome, was incredibly helpful with recommendations, and responded very quickly to all messages. We would definitely come back and highly recommend this place.

"Wonderful flat, great location with great hosts. We'd stay again!"
The flat was great and had enough room for a family of 5 (kids are adults) to be comfortable. The hosts were so nice and made sure we had everything we needed. There was also thoughtful things like plug in adapters (we are from the US) and they even left us some welcome candy and a bottle of bubbly. Which was so nice since we were also celebrating our 30th anniversary.
What could be improved: nothing

"Perfect location for families with an amazing host!"
It was very well laid out and worked incredible well for my husband and I, our two elementary aged children, and my mother (the grand mother). Each generation had their own room and relative bathroom. Our host was also incredibly helpful and met us on arrive.
What could be improved: Nothing.

"Our stay in London exceeded our expectations and gave us memories that will last a lifetime."
We visited several large cities in Europe during our vacation and Fari and his flat far exceeded all our expectations. Fari met us at the flat when we arrived and explained the area and where the closest tube locations were. He was so kind and thoughtful and was always available for any questions we had. You won't find a better place to stay in London. The location was perfect, the flat was immaculate and Fari was awesome!!!
What could be improved: There was nothing we didn't like. It was a very comfortable flat and the perfect place to crash after a full day of sightseeing.

"Great Central London Apartment for Families or small groups."
Very friendly and helpful host. The apartment was well stocked with travel essentials, and the place was clean and well organised when we arrived.
2 bedrooms with en suite bathrooms, and a 3rd bedroom with a separate bathroom gave us all plenty of space and privacy while travelling as a family.
The main living area was perfect for dinners and relaxing as a group.
Great location in Central London allowed us to easily walk to various attractions like The British Museum, Soho, and Westminster.
Would highly recommend to anyone who prefers a more casual travel experience compared to a hotel.

"It was perfect and the host could not have been more responsive and helpful in every way."
I liked the proximity to walking everywhere we wanted to go in Londo, It was a clean, very comfortable flat in a very quiet neighborhood but just blocks from the tube station, restaurants, etc.
What could be improved: There was really nothing that I didn't like and would rent again if staying in London.
