Perfection
I, my husband, and our adult son stayed comfortably for a 3-night stay. Hostess was generous & expedient with her communication, including helpful information about the area and getting around. The flat is well-equipped with coffee & tea appliances. There’s a hairdryer & a straightening iron. If you are NOT travelling light, be prepared to carry luggage up two full flights of narrow stairs.

Quiet neighborhood and comfy flat.
Great location for people who enjoy a little walking and not afraid of stairs. Clean and very spacious with just the right amenities for a longer stay through London and the extended area by both train and car. Would definitely stay again!

Excellent Stay
The space was as advertised and a good location for the first part of our trip to London. The apartment was spacious and comfortable, and Nicole was an excellent host with very quick responses. We had a couple minor issues come up during our stay that Nicole worked to resolve within minutes! The Queens Park station is a short walk and there is a small grocery nearby that was convenient for cooking a couple of meals in while we were there, along with some restaurants and coffee shops. Bus line access is also very close and was a fun and convenient option for a few of our ventures.

Great location, great communication
This flat is outside the hustle and bustle of the most touristy areas, but the location is very accessible from anywhere. The flat is basic but comfortable. The host was communicative, and checking in was painless. There is a flight of narrow stairs. I was in London on a really hot weekend, and we could have used an additional fan. Also, the kettle didn't work. However, the whole experience was great, and I would recommend this flat for a family traveling with children.

Great location
"Oversized" is very fitting. We needed a place with a separate sleeping area for our adult son (we were visiting him in England) and the tv room not only had a nice pull-out but also a door for privacy. Easy walk to the M&S grocery store and a couple steps further to the tube station (a few stops to Paddington). Abbey Road studios is about a half hour walk (I made my pilgrimage). Lots of ways to make coffee (pour-over, french press, bialetti moka express -- and of course the Nespresso machine). Couple caveats: - bring laundry detergent or tabs if you plan on laundry - don't expect the combo machine to dry your clothes; use the drying rack after the spin cycle and once they are dry use the dryer cycle to fluff and warm them

Fabulous Flat -- walk to everything!
I absolutely adored this flat, and a lot of that was thanks to Nicole and Will. From the start -- even before I booked -- Nicole quickly answered all my questions. After I booked, she sent a full page of information, and was patient with me when I was having trouble with the app. Check in itself was a breeze -- at one point I got confused because there were two keyboxes in different spots; I texted Will and he steered me in the right direction. Similarly, when there was a slight issue with hot water, I again texted Will, who knew exactly how to fix it, which I did right away, so we had ZERO discomfort. As for the space itself, it's large and charming and comfortable. The area is residential (with some very friendly neighborhood cats), but an easy walk to the Tube, terrific restaurants, and shopping. I in fact walked all over London from the flat, even to the London Eye and beyond. That's a trek and I love to walk, so I wouldn't say it's a common choice, but it's doable. You CAN get pretty much anywhere in London on foot, and always feel safe. When you do want to Tube it, the nearest station is about a 10 minute walk away, tops. As for the accommodations, the shower has strong water flow and great hot water, the kitchen is fully equipped and quite large, the bedroom is roomy and comfortable with cozy bedding, and the living room is very large, plus the couch makes a fantastically comfortable bed. I can't wait til I can come back!

Une super semaine
Nous avons passé 6 jours dans l'appartement de Nicole, qui a été extrêmement disponible avant et pendant le séjour, par mail. L'appartement est typiquement londonnien (selon l'idée que l'on peut s'en faire) : une rue typique ; des petites marches pour accéder aux deux niveaux de l'appartement ; des pièces bien séparées ; une cuisine fonctionnelle (très pratique pour dîner); les toilettes et la salle de bain séparées ; de la fenêtre de la cuisine, nous avons vu un renard tous les jours (animal très présent à Londres)! L'appartement est très accessible en métro pour aller dans le centre de Londres. Il est tout près d'une ligne de bus qui nous emmène à Notting Hill et à Camden Market. Et surtout....sur la ligne d'Overground qui mène directement à Watford Junction..pour aller au studio Harry Potter (11 GPD par personne environ)! Nicole a gentiment répondu à toutes nos questions. Nous avons passé un excellent séjour...un super souvenir pour toute la famille.

Séjour Londres décembre
L'appartement est propre et bien agencé, seulement il aurait besoin d'un complet rafraîchissement. Le quartier est calme et la localisation par rapport aux transports est acceptable (il faut marcher un peu). Les propriétaires ont été très attentionnés et très réactifs en cas de problème, un grand merci à eux !

About the host

Hosted by Nicole

Host profile image
Hi, I'm Nicole. I've been a host for 8 years and love enriching my guest's experiences when they visit London. I'm a dedicated host and treat guests like I would want to be treated.

Looking forward to hosting and providing a 5-star experience!

Why they chose this property

I've lived in Queen's Park for 8 years and it is a hidden jewel within the bustle of Central
London. Beautiful Victorian architecture, SAFE, excellent transport links, and so many options for restaurants, shopping, boutiques, parks, pubs, and relaxation.

Need one of London's best coffees? That shop is around the corner. Need some fresh pastries and bread? That shop is a minute further away.

Grocery stores: M&S Simply Food is only a few minutes away. Sainsburys, Coop, Aldi, Tesco also nearby.

Restaurants: Lebanese, Indian, British, Japanese, Italian . . . you get the hint! A plethora of options are within walking distance. I'll offer my recommendations which will keep you well fed during your trip. One of my best tips: try a maple scone and a coconut latte from Gails Bakery in Queen's Park, to start off any day. Most of my guests go here and all go back the next day, too!

Don't miss the Sunday morning farmers market for artisan products, fresh produce, aromatic flowers, and an amazing vibe.

What makes this property unique

Larger than typical flat, nearby tube station, Zone 2, easy access to London but on a quiet residential street, and - most importantly - a host that wants you to enjoy your stay.

The flat's central location makes any transport easy!

TUBE: Nearest station - Queen's Park, 6 minute walk away from the flat, Bakerloo and Overground services. Be to Paddington station for trains and the Elizabeth Line in 7 minutes and in Central London in 11 minutes.

RAIL: Flat is a few minutes from Paddington, max 15 minutes Euston, Kings Cross / St Pancras, Marylebone, Victoria, or West Hampstead.

BUS: Several bus routes are a few minutes walk away.
