One bedroom apartment flat 3A
First Impressions
One bedroom apartment flat 3A might not win any awards for its name, but honestly, that’s part of its charm. This apartment sits on the second floor of a Victorian conversion in Golders Green, and you know what? It feels more like staying at a friend’s place than checking into some sterile hotel. The building has that solid, old-school London character — the kind where you can hear the history in the creaking floorboards.
Location & Neighborhood
I’ll be straight with you about London — Golders Green isn’t exactly tourist central, but that’s actually why I loved it. You’re genuinely living like a local here, with proper delis, kosher bakeries, and that authentic North London vibe. The Tube station is a quick walk away, so getting into central London takes maybe 20-25 minutes. Plus, Hampstead Heath is practically on your doorstep if you fancy a proper walk.
The Space
The flat itself is what you’d expect from a converted Victorian — high ceilings, big windows, and quirks that make it interesting rather than perfect. The kitchen is compact but totally functional (I managed to cook a decent breakfast there), and there’s enough space to actually unpack your suitcase properly. The room gets lovely morning light, which made those jet-lagged early mornings a bit more bearable.
What Makes It Work
This place operates as a unique boutique hotel without official star rating, which basically means it’s somewhere between a proper hotel and a short-let apartment. You get your own keys, your own space, but someone’s actually looking after the property professionally. The Wi-Fi works well (tested it extensively during some work calls), and they’ve thought about the little things — decent coffee, extra towels, that sort of stuff.
Why Guests Love It
Look, if you want fancy room service and a concierge, this isn’t your place. But if you want to experience London like you actually live here — shopping at the local markets, taking the Tube with commuters, having space to breathe — then flat 3A really delivers. It’s the kind of spot where you end up staying longer than planned because it just feels… well, like home, but in North London.
You'll need to let the property know in advance what time you'll arrive.
