About this apartment rental
We are pleased to offer you our two bedroom spacious self-catering apartment in this Edwardian building, located close by the River Thames, with the world-famous Tower of London literally across the road, and the iconic Tower Bridge as our backdrop.
Our two-bedroom apartment has a standard occupancy of 4 guests but can comfortably sleep up to 6 people (there is a small surcharge of £15 per person per night for the 5th and 6th guests). We can also provide an additional travel cot - suitable for a for a baby up to approx 12 months’ old - (available on request). The apartment is thoroughly cleaned before and after you leave. Please note that an additional cleaning of £70 per stay is payable in cash to our housekeeper at check-in.
The apartment is elegantly furnished, providing high-quality amenities and excellent value for money, given our prestigious location next door to the Four Seasons hotel in Tower Hill. It is ideal for both business and leisure visitors alike. For business visitors, the City of London financial district is on our doorstep. For leisure visitors, Tower Hill’s environs are steeped in history, from Roman times on wards, through the invasion of William the Conqueror, to the terrible exploits of Jack the Ripper, a short distance east in Whitechapel. We then come right up to the present-day architecture of the Shard and the Gherkin, both of which are within less than a mile’s radius and easily accessible, by public transport, taxi or on foot.
The area is well served by literally 100's of local restaurants to suit all budgets and sophisticated wine bars and London pubs. Sight seeing and the Theatres of the West-End are easily accessible by tube, bus or short cab ride. We aim to ensure that our apartments feel like your home away from home and our location next to the majestic Tower of London will leave you with fantastic memories and wanting to return!
The views from each room within this elegant apartment located on the 3rd floor (with lift) of this small, quiet and exclusive residential building is spectacular. The nearby Thames path enable guests to take a relaxing walk along the embankment and take in magnificent views as they walk to nearby St Paul's Cathedral, The Tate Modern, Covent Garden and the West End beyond.
Tower Hill has an abundance of high quality restaurants, which cater to every palate and every wallet. A short stroll past the 'Beef Eaters' (guards of the Tower and the Crown Jewels) you will find St Katherine's Dock filled with swanky private yachts as well a wide selection of trendy eateries. Just across Tower Bridge at Butlers Wharf you will find Sir Terrance Conran's famous group of restaurants including 'Pont De La Tour' (Fish) and the 'Chop House' (contemporary English food). Both these locations offer alfresco dining by the river for that perfect romantic and memorable evening spent watching the world go by with friends and family.
Perfect for sightseeing and business trips: From our apartment you can easily visit all the famous sites without need for a car. Trafalgar Square, Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament are approximately a 7 minute journey by Tube or 20 minutes by bus. This means that guests can easily access to the main tourist attractions such as St Paul's cathedral, Buckingham Palace, Trafalgar Square, Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament, as well as the National Gallery and British museum etc. Harrods and the hustle and bustle of all shopping along Oxford, Regent and Bond Streets are also a short journey by tube or bus but Tower Hill and the City also provide an extensive choice of shopping close by. The tour buses pass outside our front door if you want the thrill of seeing the sights from the famous London Red Bus!
The apartment is easily accessible from London's main airports (Heathrow, Gatwick, Luton and Stansted) by Tube, rail or bus within an hour. The new Elizabeth line trains make the journey from Heathrow a lot quicker than previously. London City airport is just 25 mins using the Dockland Light railway.

Great location and right next to many sightseeing attractions!

Martin was so easy to work with and super helpful! He was a great communicator and the housekeeper was so sweet and meet us on day one to help walk us through how everything worked at the apartment. Would absolutely stay again and definitely recommend Martin as a host!!

Our family had a great stay at this location for 4 days in August. We loved the location - minutes away from the Tower of London, Tower Pier, and Tower Hill Tube. This allowed us to get to where we were going quickly. Several buses stopped nearby as well. The apartment had a great view of the Tower Bridge and Tower of London just as the pictures show. We enjoyed evenings with the great views. Since it was hot during the day, we would leave the windows opened at night with fans provided - this kept it nice and cool while sleeping. The 2 bathrooms with showers were great for our family, and the kitchen was well equipped through we did not use it much. Definitely recommend this location!

I've booked a lot of good vacation rentals in my day, but this one topped them all. The apartment is in a prime location with absolutely stunning views. The apartment was beautiful, filled with everything we could ever need. It is worth every pound we paid to see the beautiful view of the Tower Bridge lit up at night. Thank you for an amazing stay!

Very good property in the heart of London easy access to all the attractions 😎

We spent the best 3 weeks of any vacation in this apartment in the heart of London with a smashing great view of the Tower of London, the Tower Bridge, and the Shard skyscraper. We chose this rental to be the place we would celebrate our 50th anniversary. It was the best decision we could have made.
We were only a 5 min walk to the Tower Hill underground station which provides direct service to the best sights in London. For example - a trip to Parliament or Westminster Cathedral was 15-20 minutes as well as to many of the West End Theatres,
There are many dozens of pubs and restaurants with a 5–10-minute walk with a wide variety of food.
The layout if the apartment is nice and very spacious by London standards (significantly more comfortable than any hotel. The Four Seasons Hotel was in the building next to us, but they don't have the view. Although the weather is generally comfortable in the summer, if it gets warm you need to be aware that there is no air conditioning since this is an historic building.
The manager, Martin, was fantastic to work with.
If you want a fantastic view, be centrally located, and have easy access to the rest of London - THIS IS THE PLACE TO STAY.

iIt was our first time in London and we could not have picked a better place to stay. Beds were comfortable and having two full bathrooms with four girls was an added bonus. I would definitely stay here again. The host was very responsive and a pleasure to work with.

Working with Martin was easy, and the day we checked in Jane was there to greet us, and was really upfront of the cleanliness of the apartment. The sheets and towels were all freshly washed and you could tell it. You can’t beat the view at night from the apartment looking at The Tower Bridge and the Tower of London. Tube station not too far, and there is a small grocery store a few blocks away. The temperature was perfect for us at night to be able to open the windows and be very comfortable. Would gladly rent this apartment again.

Just right for our family of 5 (kids ages 15, 14 & 12). Responsive, helpful, and polite owner.
We arranged for an early check-in (situational accommodation, not sure if it is generally an option; fee and availability). Met housekeeper in-person (kind, helpful lady whose name I, sadly, don’t recall). She showed us the basics about the unit and appliances (central heat, water heater, dishwasher, clothes washing machine, clothes iron, clothes drying racks, pullout couch, TVs, wi-fi) and made sure we had enough linens.
For our stay, my spouse and I used the primary suite with 3/4 bath (shower, toilet, sink), my 14 & 12 year old stayed in oldest son requested to stay on the pull out couch in the living room. The kids used the full bath (shower/bathtub combo, sink, toilet). Everything was clean and cared for; very comfortable and welcoming.
Location was SPECTACULAR! Barely two blocks to tube station, across the street from Tower of London. About a 15 minute tube ride over to Westminster area. And the VIEW! Breathtaking!
Many supermarkets (Tesco and Buy Food) within blocks offer most grocery supplies you may need.
It is located in a busy area which means there is near-constant noise of street and tube(subway) traffic. Comparable to noise you’d find in ANY city center. We didn’t find it disruptive, but if you’re looking for silent surrounding, this may not be the best choice for you.
This is definitely on top of our accommodations list for London!

This is a wonderful property to stay. Five min from the underground, across from the Tower of London and on the corner with two pubs! Can’t get better than that. Sincere thanks to Martin for the advance tips to travel from the airport. He is an excellent host with a beautiful flat. The scenic views are of London bridge and the tower. Great, great time. There is a store a short distance away, so made it easy to have meals and relax. Highly recommend this property!

Property is in a great location and easy access to the underground trains and buses. Beautiful view of the Tower Bridge. Met all expectations from VRBO listing. There is street noise at night, but we we aware prior to booking (some members of the family used ear plugs).
Check in was easy and host stayed in contact prior to our arrival.

On arrival at check in time apartment cleaning personal was still there with the excuse that she had a huge party before us!!!!
Apartment is on a MAJOR STREET and loud, NO AC at 100 F, appliances are old, shower head height in 2nd bath is for children height. Won't work for adults. Our check out time was 10 o'clock at 8:30 Cleaning lady entered apartment without our consent. This is an old apartment with 2 bedrooms and a sofa bed in living room. Altogether a bad experience. Would not recommend. View on tower bridge is great, but no mentioning of the road noise!! Again would never rent again and do not recommend.
4.8
The apartment is very beautiful and clean and close to the subway tube system and touristic attractions. Was nice to have 2 bathrooms and 2 bedrooms and nice kitchen and washing machine. Was spacious and safe. But no air conditioning so very very hot in the apartment even in September and all night. I didn’t get the 3 single beds as I expected in the second bedroom. Pull out couch wasn’t too comfortable if you have 6 people, beds were great. There are extra fees for house keeper and for extra persons just to be aware that are to be paid in cash.
4.8
This was our first stop of our vacation and it was a great way to begin. We loved the busy, energetic feel of the area, and how easy it was to get around. The area is busy and a bit loud, but we slept each night with our windows open and enjoyed the fresh breeze. We would stay again!

This apartment is in the perfect location to walk to everything. It's exactly as described and reflected in pictures. The check-in process went smoothly and both the Martin (owner) and Jane (manager) are very responsive. Jane was a lovely lady and was extremely hospitable and ensured we knew all aspects of the apartment. I would Definitely stay hear again. Beautiful!

Wonderful place! Perfect for our family trip to London. The apartment is spacious with truly amazing views of the Tower of London and Tower Bridge. Also spotlessly clean. The neighborhood is busy with lots of nearby restaurants and we loved being able to easily cross the river to the South Bank. Martin, the owner, provided all the necessary information prior to our trip. And thank you, Jane, for all of your help during our check in and check out. Highly recommend.

Perfect apartment in a very cool and well connected part of London. Stunning views from apartment of Tower of London, Tower bridge and the Thames. Only minutes to underground and Uberboats on Thames. Apartment quiet, well appointed and well set out. Excellent and friendly communication with host. Borough Market and the Shard just over London Bridge and lots of places to eat. Monument to Great Fire just down the road and so much more. Best place we’ve stayed in London !

You cannot beat the location of this home. Convenient for a variety of great restaurants, with the added bonus of the Four Seasons hotel just around the corner (a great place for a light dinner and/or a nightcap, and to catch a taxi!). The area itself is beautiful - don't be afraid to walk out the door and wander ... we happened upon some lovely buildings, neighborhoods, and pubs! The view from this beautiful old building and this flat is unbeatable. An important note: It is on a busy street, and is noisy 24/7, so it is not for those with sleep challenges or who crave peace and quiet.

What a great place to stay at, couldn’t have asked for a better location.
Check in was too long, after a long flight we didn’t want to hear about a washing machine, dishwasher etc. which we never used.
Jane kept saying she would come back with snacks,: what kind of milk or bread did we want? So we told her, not to bring us anything! Last day she showed up before 8 a.m. and we felt we had to leave right away…which we did!
The view is absolutely wonderful and so are the tolling bells from across the street. The pub downstairs was our favorite spot for breakfast and cocktails in the evening!
One thing we didn’t like: used bars of soap in the bathrooms and the rock hard towels, but those are minor things!
Highly recommend this beautiful apartment!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the Tower Hill flat. The location is simply unbeatable, and the views from the windows are perfect. We watched the moon rising over the Thames and Tower Bridge--wonderful.
It's a very walkable area, but cabs are easily hailed from the street. Yes, it is a busy area, but that just adds to the flavour. (Earplugs/buds do help if you're a light sleeper.)
Thank you, Martin and Jane.

The location was terrific--close to lots of things we wanted to see and to transportation to other sites.
We also found the condo well-stocked with the exception of some face cloths as part of the bathroom linens. Otherwise, everything we needed was available.
Overall, we decided this location was one we will save for a return trip as we didn't have nearly enough time to see everything we wanted to!

The view of the tower bridge from all windows of this apartment is stunning! It is actually better than in the pictures, because the tower bridge is actually a much closer view in person than in the listing. It was an extremely comfortable apartment-very elegant and in a beautiful building and a good neighborhood, yet centrally located. I would stay here again in a heartbeat
