Overview

First Impressions

When I first arrived at Unique Modern, Private Apartment,15 Mins To Central London, I honestly wasn’t sure what to expect from a residential building in Hendon. But stepping into this five-star apartment completely changed my perspective — it’s like having your own luxury London pied-à-terre without the astronomical price tag. The modern design feels genuinely sophisticated, not trying-too-hard trendy, and you immediately get that sense of space that’s so rare in London.

The Space Itself

This place actually lives up to its “unique modern” promise, which I mean, half the time these names are just marketing fluff. The room layout flows beautifully, and there’s this attention to detail that suggests someone who really travels designed it. The kitchen is properly equipped — not just a kettle and mini-fridge situation — so you can actually cook if you want to save money or just fancy a quiet night in.

Location Reality Check

Hendon might not sound glamorous, but here’s what the travel sites don’t tell you: the Northern Line connection is genuinely reliable, and you’re looking at about 18-20 minutes door-to-door to central London (not the optimistic 15 they advertise, but close enough). What I really appreciated was having actual neighborhood life around you — proper local pubs, a decent Tesco, and that feeling of living somewhere real rather than just existing in tourist-land.

The Luxury Details

You know what impressed me most? The little luxury touches that show someone actually thought about the guest experience. The shower pressure is excellent — honestly, better than some high-end hotels I’ve stayed in. The bed is properly comfortable, not just Instagram-pretty, and there’s enough parking space if you’re driving (which in London, let’s be honest, is a minor miracle). The whole setup feels curated rather than just furnished.

Why Guests Love It

After staying here, I totally get the 9.5 rating — it’s that rare combination of genuine quality and actual value. You’re getting luxury apartment living with the independence to explore London at your own pace, but without feeling isolated from the city’s energy. The host clearly knows what they’re doing, and honestly, I’d book this again over a generic hotel room any day.

"Superb"
Good kitchen facilities and comfy bed. Ensuite small but nicely done. Plenty of storage for clothes. Also great location for getting around London with Tube station metres away. Good choice of shops for food and drink as well. Price of room means value for money
What could be improved: Desk chair a little wobbly and TV was quite small if watching from the bed

"Excellent apartment"
Apartment was very clean and comfortable, with everything we needed for our stay, very well equipped. The owners were so helpful in sending a video of how to access the property and advice on transport. It is situated in an ideal location, with a direct bus to Wembley Stadium from right outside and just a stones throw from Hendon underground.
What could be improved: Nothing
