Weekly Special – 2BDR APT By Homestyles Hosts Short Lets & Serviced Accommodation Stratford With Free Parking
First Impressions
Honestly, Weekly Special – 2BDR APT By Homestyles Hosts Short Lets & Serviced Accommodation Stratford With Free Parking might have the longest name I’ve ever encountered for accommodation, but don’t let that put you off. What you’re getting is essentially a proper apartment that feels more like staying at a friend’s place than cramming into a hotel room. The building on Ladywell Street looks pretty standard from the outside, but step inside and you’ll find they’ve done a decent job making these spaces feel homey.
Location & Getting Around
Stratford is actually a brilliant base if you know what you’re doing — and I mean that in the best way. You’re in London proper, but you’re not paying West End prices for everything. The Olympic Park is literally a short walk away, which is great for morning runs or just wandering around those massive open spaces. Plus, Westfield Stratford City is close enough that you can pop over for shopping or grab dinner without any hassle.
The Space Itself
This four-star setup gives you two proper bedrooms, which honestly makes all the difference if you’re traveling with family or friends. The kitchen is actually functional — I’m talking full-size fridge, proper cooktop, all the basics you need if you want to save money on takeaways. The living area has enough space that everyone isn’t sitting on top of each other, and there’s decent WiFi throughout (always my first test).
Practical Stuff That Matters
The free parking situation is genuinely valuable in London — you know how brutal street parking can be around here. They’ve sorted that headache for you, which alone probably saves you £20+ per day. The hosts are pretty responsive when you need something, though honestly, the place is set up well enough that you probably won’t need much help. Everything from towels to basic toiletries is covered, so you can pack lighter.
Why Guests Love It
What really works about this place is that it gives you proper London life without the tourist trap feel. You can walk to Stratford station and be in Central London in 15 minutes, but you’re staying somewhere that feels residential and real. The two-bedroom layout means couples or families aren’t cramped together, and having that kitchen means you can actually live a bit rather than just survive on hotel breakfast and expensive dinners. It’s not flashy or Instagram-perfect, but it’s solid, practical, and honestly quite comfortable for the money.
You'll need to let the property know in advance what time you'll arrive.
