Wonderful flat in a quaint neighborhood. We enjoyed the spacious kitchen and comfy beds.

Tima was incredible to work with! She went above and beyond getting us ready for our trip across the pond. The flat was the perfect place to come back to after a day exploring London. Several tube stations a short walk (10 min) from the flat. The beds were really comfortable and the building no was quiet. We will definitely be coming back!

Great stay in Shepherds Bush

My stay at this apartment has been great. The property is located a 8 min walk from the Central line which easily connects to the main attractions of the city (Oxford Circus, Hyde Park) and is a 20 min walk from lovely Holland Park. The property has nice and new furniture and I found it perfectly cleaned at my arrival. Whenever I had a problem, the owner was prompt and fast in addressing my questions and providing solutions. I can only recommend to stay in this apartment!

Wonderful

We had a fantastic time in London. This flat was in a perfect location, close to 3 different tube stations to walk to, and a bus stop very close if you don’t feel like walking. Tima was a great hostess. We had a couple of issues, one with the lock and another with the kitchen sink leaking. She answered back right away and sent a repair man to come within an hour who fixed the problems. The neighbors were friendly and we felt safe. The flat was very clean and bright. The beds were comfortable. I stayed for a month and wish I could have lived here. There is so much to see in London and this was great place to start out to explore from. I would highly recommend this flat to friends and family and would definitely stay here again if I’m lucky enough to return to London Thank you Tima, for a wonderful experience.

What a great place and a great stay we had. All the helpful notes about the area and hints for a great vacation were spot on. The flat was quiet and clean and we received immediate attention to a self inflicted problem. We will definitely stay here again when we return!

Well located, comfortable place to stay

We were 3 adults and a child staying over the Christmas period and absolutely loved our time in this apartment. Everything has been thought of (lovely soap and shampoos, dishwashing liquid, laundry detergent, glad wrap, alfoil, various teas and herbal infusions) that our stay really was like a home away from home. When we arrived, the heating wasn't working, but the owner came straight away and booked a plumber to sort the problem out quick smart. Location was great as it's not far from public transport options and a huge shopping centre if you need to pick up anything. Lots of food options nearby, even when arriving late. Communication was great and lots of information about the surrounding area. Will stay here the next time we are in London!

Apartment was perfect for our needs!

Apartment in Kensington Olympia was perfect for our needs! Close to underground station. We used to walk to Shepherd's Bush station. It took approximately 10 min. Tesco grocery story also close by. We did two grocery store runs during our 1 week stay. Bed was very comfortable and apartment nice and clean. We appreciate all the small touches to make our stay so nice. Chocolates waiting for us, bread/milk/butter in the fridge. Tima was very responsive when we contacted her. It was also very convenient to be able to cook meals (mainly breakfast and dinner), and to do laundry.

Best Place to Stay

This was our first trip to London with our family of 4. The elegant apartment in Kingsington was the perfect place to stay. Close enough to all the attractions yet in a quiet neighborhood with great restaurants out of the touristy areas. Our hosts were amazing. The apartment was clean, modern in decor and had everything a family or couple would need for a perfect stay. We recommend this apartment highly as well as the hosts. You can't go wrong with the elegant flat in Kensington.

Convenient place in a nice neighborhood

Small, clean apartment in a nice neighborhood near Shepard's Bush Underground and Westfield London Mall. Lots of good restaurants inside and outside the Mall. Plenty of room for the two of us in our group. I loved the espresso machine and made myself a latte every morning. The laundry is a combination washer/dryer. Ask for instructions. I never did figure it out.

Modern, clean, and well-equipped apartment

A good location convenient to tube stations and grocery shopping. We eat in so can't speak for the many restaurants in the area. Everything was clean and in good working order. We had a bit of trouble on arrival day as the email with our detailed late afternoon flight info was not acknowledged and confusion about phone numbers had us playing phone tag while waiting outside the flat.

Cocon douillet à Londres

Appartement très sympa tout de couleur blanche. Très fonctionnel. Il y a même un lave-vaisselle et un lève-linge. Chambres confortables bien que petites. Les lits sont un peu etroit. Salle de bain tout de Pierre blanche. L'ambiance de l'appartement serait encore plus sympa si on retirait tous les tapis (véritable attrape poussière). Situation hyper pratique entre 3 stations de métro. Beaucoup de chouettes restos aux alentours.

Lovely apartment in great location

The apartment is really nice, very comfortable and well equipped (dishes and household items, hooks in the wardrobes, cleaning products, ...). The decoration is stylish and furniture and accessories are practical (photos are real). It is also ideally located (the central line is just 3 minutes away!) in a quiet neighbourhood and near a huge shopping center (supermarket, franchises, fashion shops, etc.). The owner is really friendly and helpful. She has been in touch with us during all our stay taking care of everything. We have enjoyed more our time in London thanks to her kindness and her lovely flat!!

Elisabeth C., Vancouver, WA

comfortable and convenient, would stay again

Overall a very nice option for home base to explore London. Tube station and buses are within 10-15 minute walking distance, as advertised. Several restaurants and grocery stores also within walking distance. Beds are on the firm side, but not uncomfortable. Toilet and shower are in separate bathrooms, which makes getting ready in the morning easier. Bedrooms overlook quiet garden area and not the somewhat busy, but small, street. The neighborhood is not extremely posh, but not bad either. I'd say it's on par with this excellent price for a 2 bedroom flat in London. It does skirt a really nice area. The bathrooms and kitchen seemed very clean, but I think the whole apartment could've used a much more thorough sweep/vacuum. We noticed a lot of dust and hair gathering in the corners and under wastebaskets, as if it hadn't been done in awhile. And the carpet in the living room was definitely in need of a clean. The washing machine had been broken by a previous renter and was not repaired during our stay, which was somewhat frustrating as we had a long trip ahead of us and were relying on the ability to wash the small amount of clothing we'd brought. But we understand this happens. The kitchen was well laid out, with the necessary amount of basic eating and cooking utensils. Minor issues: 1) There's a much-too-large for the room end-table next to the couch that makes it near impossible to navigate the kitchen/living area, if the owner reads this we highly recommend downsizing or removing that as it was nearly the cause of injury several times. 2) Meeting up for entry to the apartment was not well-handled. I had emailed with the manager several times letting them know when we'd be arriving and provided my mobile number. They responded that our arrival time would be accommodated. When we arrived at the apartment there was no one to greet us, no note, text message, email or phone call to let us know the plan for how to get in. I buzzed the apartment several times and no one answered. I called the manager several times with no response. We waited at least a 1/2 hour before a man arrived, who though he did not introduce himself and was somewhat unfriendly, did finally open the door for us and also helped us get our bags upstairs. All that said, if we return to London, we would stay here again.

Why they chose this property

We always loved the fact Brook Green and Olympia have very cosy 'village' feels whilst still being in the heart of central London and with easy access to the rest of the city. There are two parks on our doorstep, Holland and Hyde parks, glorious in summer. You can walk to the heart of Kensington in 10 mins - so its very well positioned. It is fabulous for pubs and restaurants, very handy for tubes and trains ... and very easy for exiting London on the M4 or M40 motorways.
