Overview
First Impressions
Superb Spacious Zone 1 Modern 3-Bed 2-Bath, Trendy Fitzrovia W1 by Oxford Street Sleeps 6 is honestly one of those finds that makes you feel like you’ve cracked some sort of London code. The moment you step into this apartment, you realize this isn’t your typical cramped London accommodation — the space actually breathes. Located on Fitzroy Street, you’re literally in the heart of Fitzrovia, which I’d argue is one of London‘s best-kept secrets for visitors who want to feel like locals.
The Space That Changes Everything
What strikes you first is just how much room there is to spread out. Three proper bedrooms mean your group isn’t playing accommodation Tetris, and honestly, the two bathrooms are a game-changer when you’re traveling with friends or family. The modern design feels fresh without being sterile — you know what I mean, that sweet spot where everything works but doesn’t feel like a showroom. The kitchen is actually functional too, which matters more than you’d think when you’re staying several days and want to grab groceries from the nearby Waitrose.
Location That Actually Delivers
Here’s where this place really shines — Fitzrovia sits perfectly between the chaos of Oxford Street and the village-y feel of Marylebone. You can walk to Oxford Circus in about five minutes when you need that retail therapy, but retreat to quieter streets lined with independent cafes and pubs when the tourist crowds become too much. The Charlotte Street area is right there, packed with some seriously good restaurants that locals actually frequent. I mean, you’re also a short walk from the British Museum, but nobody tells you about the excellent gastropubs tucked away on the side streets.
The Practical Bits That Matter
This four-star setup handles the logistics beautifully. The two bathrooms eliminate morning queues, and there’s enough wardrobe space that you’re not living out of suitcases. What I really appreciated was how quiet it stays despite being so central — Fitzroy Street has that residential feel that buffers you from the Oxford Street madness. The modern amenities work seamlessly, from reliable WiFi to a washing machine that actually saves you from lugging dirty clothes home.
Why Guests Love It
Look, London accommodation often forces compromises — space versus location, modern versus character, quiet versus accessibility. This place somehow sidesteps most of those trade-offs. Groups love having room to actually relax together without feeling cramped, while the Fitzrovia location gives you that “living in London” vibe rather than just visiting. The fact that you can walk to major attractions but also discover neighborhood gems makes it work for different travel styles. Plus, when you’re paying London prices anyway, getting proper space and two bathrooms feels like winning the accommodation lottery.
Locals suggest to book apartments in London around South Bank for riverside dining, market stops, and easy city crossings.
Guest reviews
"Superb"
Right in the middle of great neighborhood. Full kitchen and 2 baths. Clean and well-equipped.
What could be improved: Just FYI to guests when it is very hot weather in London - the property doesn’t have AC and does not advertise as having AC. But they have room fans.

"GREAT LOCATION!"
Booking the flat was easy, it was a very roomy accommodation for 4 of us, and communication was very good with the owners. Keys had to be picked up at a shop a few blocks away, but directions were easy to find it. Flooring and bathrooms were new nd updated, making the flat feel very clean. The beds were comfortable, pillows and bedding were clean, high quality, and fiberfill so no problem with allergies.
The kitchen was easy to learn how to use, and there was an extensive handbook for directions we might need. While it was a bit pricey, it was in a comfortable and safe neighborhood with restaurants, markets, and shops not far away. We were able to walk everywhere from the flat. The heaters worked quite well, so the flat was always comfortable.
What could be improved: It would have been helpful to have more towels, and we bought more toilet tissue and paper towels as there were no extra paper supplies available.

"Clean and comfortable"
Very clean. Has all the things you need in the kitchen for a nice stay. It isn’t easy to find a three bedroom apartment in the center of London.
What could be improved: We had to put a deposit of 250 pounds that we didn’t know about before. We couldn’t get another blanket (only double blanket).

"An enjoyable family stay in wonderful central London property"
Well appointed, fully furnished, modern apartment which comfortably sleeps 6. Booking and arrival was smooth, property was clean and appears as described. Apartment is in good location for public transport (Euston, King's Cross, London Underground, Buses) and easy walk to Regent's Park, Oxford Street, Regent's Street, Soho, Covent Garden, Camden Market etc. Overall, a wonderful family stay.
What could be improved: The rubbish (trash) chute in the building was out of order at the time of our stay, so disposing of waste was cumbersome.

"Highly recommend"
Very big, clean, central appartment. Everything is like in the pictures. The area is very nice and quiet.the price is amazing so I highly recommend
What could be improved: Nothing major. But I think there are too many rules on what to do and not do while staying there, it felt like it comes with a manual , and the late checkin that might be an issue, for us was not but good to consider when booking

"great stay in a very good location of London"
We really enjoyed our stay at this appartment. Thanks a lot to Liz, the host of the appartment, for the easy and perfect communication. The appartment corresponded exactly to the description and we had enough space for 5 people. The location of the appartment is exellent and there are lots of restaurants and coffe shops nearby. public transportation is very close by, even if we preferred to explore many sights on foot. We have been really pleased to learn that we got a goodwill payback from our host, Liz, because the elevator has been out of order during 3 days of our stay. This has been very gererous - thanks a lot.
