Sweet apartment near Kensington/Olympia tube station. We stayed nine nights and found this to be a restful refuge from which to explore all that London has to offer. Quiet neighborhood within a walk of several different tube stations makes it easy to get to Central London. We also walked the local area and enjoyed dinner at several local restaurants, a welcome respite from more heavily touristed areas. Beds are very comfortable and the sitting room is cozy with two couches ideal for lounging. Hosts friendly, informative, and responsive.

Great place to enjoy some quiet family time at the end of the day

We really enjoyed our stay here. The local eateries are fantastic and it’s a quick hop to the train station for getting around town. Very comfy beds, and a sun filled parlour to relax in.

Basecamp for Extended Visit to London

My family of four enjoyed an extended stay at this property, giving us a quiet and well sized place to base all of our adventures from. There is easy access for multiple transit options, and it's close to Shepards Bush where you can rent a car for the day if needed.

Lovely flat in great location

This was a perfect flat for our stay! Comfortable, well maintained and centrally located. We especially liked that there was fresh milk and tea available on our arrival after the long flight. Hugo and Lizie were very accommodating and always responded in a timely way. We would definitely rent this again on future trips and recommend it others.

Home from Home

We love everything about the apartment. It is the second time we have stayed there, and it is the perfect location for Olympia There are plenty of restaurants in the area and High Street Kensington is a short bus ride away. The apartment is very clean well equipped and Hugo is super helpful. It is also an interesting place to stay with magazines and good books. It really is home from home.

We had a great stay at Lizzy's apartment in Kensington Olympia. It was very comfortable and had a wonderful homey feel to it which is great when you're travelling for an extended time away from home. It's location is only a 10-15 min walk away from 3 main tube stations as well, making it easy to get into the city. We had a great time in London, thank you Lizzy

Beautiful and quite place

We had a great stay in Hugo´s appartment. The location is very nice and quite, good mattrasses, in the kitchen you find everything you need also for bigger coocking actions and it is near to many bus stops. We contacted Hugo a few times and he always answered quickly. Gladly again!

Comfortable, convenient home away from home

We - my husband and two sons ( teen and pre teen)had a lovely stay at this flat . So nice to come home to and relax after a day out . Beds were very comfortable. Great to have a washer and have our breakfasts in to start the day. Everything within walking distance. Precious memories made while visiting our daughter who is studying abroad and other relatives and seeing the sights.

Comfortable London Stay

Very clean and comfortable in good location, easy access to overground and comfy beds. Would’ve been good to know in advance that there was building work going on which caused some noise early in the morning. Overall, nice place to stay however little changes would’ve made a big difference.

In short: great host fantastic location roomy, well-appointed apartment a top-tier stay. Highly recommended if you want a nice apartment close to the heart of the city.We had a wonderful stay! The host was very easy to correspond with — quick, clear, and accommodating every step of the way.The location is wonderful. It offers excellent access to a nearby train station, making travel into the London Underground system (and other rail links) very convenient.The neighborhood is quiet. Our upstairs and downstairs neighbors were respectful and quiet — we felt very relaxed the whole time.The apartment itself is spacious, especially for a family of four. There was plenty of room to spread out. It’s also very well equipped for cooking: we were able to make several of our own meals with ease.
