A stunning contemporary apartment in Floral st. just yards from Covent Garden Piazza. the Royal Opera House and London's theatre district. If you are coming to London as a tourist or for work you simply cannot be closer to the action. Floral street is a pedestrian-priority cobbled street. Lined by quirky designer shops (Paul Smith has his major outlet at the top of the street) it is a few yards from the busiest Underground station in London and yet it feels uncrowded and is not noisy. It is on the 3rd Floor served by a lift or elevator and furnished in smart contemporary style. Spacious two-bedroom apartment, 65 sq metres / 700 sq feet, with one and a half baths in American English i.e. a bathroom & a separate toilet with a small hand basin, a separate living room & kitchen. There is a separate living room & very well equipped kitchen including 3 types of coffee makers, a kettle, toaster, plenty of pots and pans etc. everything you will want for an 8 person dinner party. You enter the hallway with walk-in cupboard to store your suitcases , etc. Off the hallway is a large dining and living room with polished wood floors throughout the flat. A formal dining table can seat up to six. There are two sofas &, a flat screen TV and Wifi internet, digital radio, Sony music centre. The Kitchen is large and has all the normal appliances i.e. microwave, dishwasher, washing machine & tumble dryer. There are 2 bedrooms with a bed in each room: - the Master Bedroom has a firm Super King-size bed (180 x 210 cm / 6 foot double) and a large built in wardrobe. - the smaller Second Bedroom has a Standard Double bed (135 x 210cm / 4½ ft double) with a Tempur memory mattress & Montana Wardrobe. We can put up a 3rd single inflatable bed in the lounge for a 5th person. There is also a travel cot for your baby’s stay, a hair dryer, iron and ironing board. There are individually controlled radiators in both the 2 bedrooms and living (reception) room, hallway and bathroom, and the flat is well insulated (with double glass panes). You have the complete run of the apartment. BT Sport TV package. Dishwasher, Washing machine & dryer. We will meet and check you in, check you out when you leave and we are at the end of the phone if anything goes wrong during your stay. (While we can't promise that the dishwasher wont break down we do promise to get it fixed as soon as we can get a plumber in to fix it if it does break down!) If your flight is delayed or cancelled we will do our best to accommodate you. You can walk to the British Museum, Covent Garden, SoHo, Leister Square, Trafalgar Square. the National Gallery & The National Portrait Gallery & the Royal Opera/Ballet is 150 yards away. This is heart of London's Theatre district. Floral St is accessible by car/taxi & you can park and load/unload just opposite the entrance to the apt building. That said you also can't stay long - the street is most definitely not a thru-way! You do NOT need a hire car if staying in the apt and given congestion charging and car parking fees it is really uneconomic to do so. If arriving at Heathrow Airport you have a choice of the Express train to Paddington station and a taxi to the apt (40mins) or the underground train directly from Heathrow to the Covent Garden Station, which is a very short walk to the flat. Tube from Covent Garden to Heathrow. Efficient, around 1½ hours for the journey and less than half the price of a road transfer but not too luggage friendly. Heathrow Express from Paddington. Journey time 15mins. Train approximately every 15mins. Taxi to Paddington station around 25 mins (possibility of delays in traffic) To and from Gatwick Airport: Taxi to Victoria Station – Gatwick Express train leaves every 30 mins and takes approx. 1 hr.
