This penthouse apartment, refurbished in early 2019, is situated on the third floor of a historic corner building dating back to 1676, originally known as The Grecian Coffee House. The property accommodates up to four guests in one bedroom and is characterized by its proximity to various barristers' chambers, public gardens, and the iconic River Thames, which is just a few minutes' walk away. Located behind Fleet Street, renowned as the heart of the capital's newspaper industry, the apartment offers a blend of historical charm and modern convenience, making it an ideal retreat for visitors to London.
Guests will appreciate the regular housekeeping service and reasonably strong free Wi-Fi included in the rental rate. The apartment features a well-equipped kitchen for those who wish to prepare their meals, although the vibrant neighborhood is filled with an array of restaurants, pubs, and cafes, ensuring that dining options are plentiful. Notable nearby attractions include the Royal Courts of Justice, the Strand, and Covent Garden, all within easy walking distance, allowing guests to immerse themselves in the bustling atmosphere of the city.
The apartment is accessible via a third-floor walk-up, as there is no lift, and is positioned above a traditional British pub, adding to the local flavor of the experience. Self-check-in allows guests the flexibility to arrive at their convenience after 3 PM, although an arrival before 10 PM is recommended due to limited remote support after this hour. For longer stays, discounts are available, and guests will receive sufficient linen and towels upon arrival, with additional housekeeping provided for stays exceeding two weeks.
Located in the heart of London City Centre, the apartment is surrounded by notable landmarks such as the British Museum, Big Ben, the London Eye, and the Natural History Museum, making it a perfect base for exploring the city's rich cultural offerings. The area's natural beauty is also highlighted by nearby parks like Hyde Park and Finsbury Park, providing a serene escape from the urban bustle.
