Bijou

We found this accommodation to be in a great location to get around with ease - 3 stops on the train to Westminister. Sloane Square is a lovely town with some boutique shopping. The owners were very friendly, accessible and easy to deal with. They were also helpful with suggestions on where to eat and some places to visit. Would definitely recommend this apartment to everyone.

Bright, modern and well located

We loved our stay in this apartment. It's the first time I've stayed in this part of London and it is now my favourite area. Yes, it's a small basement flat, but it's bright, contemporary and well designed, and had everything we needed. We also found it to be great value for this location. The fresh flowers and fruit were a lovely touch. The owners were helpful and responsive at what was a difficult time for them. When we noticed there was no toaster they very quickly bought a new one and dropped it off for us. Highly recommend.

What a Find!!!!

I can't think of enough superlative adjectives to express our delight with this gem of a flat. It was EXACTLY as described. The pictures did not lie; it looked exactly as we expected it to. In fact, it felt larger than one would think given its compact footprint. Chris and Chloe are remarkable hosts. Chris was there to greet us and left the refrigerator stocked with goodies to get us started. The flat itself was warm and cozy. The bathroom, while small, has the perfect layout and affords plenty of room. There was plenty of hot water and excellent water pressure. The kitchen had everything we needed and the fresh roses were a lovely touch. The bed was perfectly comfortable, as were the pillows. As for the location, we were only a stone's throw from where we lived during our expat assignment in London, so we already had a good handle on the neighborhood. We will happily return and hope the flat will be available the next time we are in London. Thank you!

Great Stay in a Wonderful Flat

I had a wonderful 10 day stay at Kris & Chloe's flat. The location couldn't be better - just steps away from Sloane Square Tube Station as well as numerous excellent restaurants. Be sure to check out Partridge's in Duke of York's Square for terrific prepared foods as well as groceries. The flat itself is spotlessly clean and just the right size for two people. The bed is very comfortable and my traveling companion told me the pull-out bed was great as well. The washer & dryer work quickly, simply & efficiently. The flat was fully stocked with everything anyone could possibly need for a comfortable stay - all sorts of food, towels, kitchen pots / pans / dishes / utensils, soaps, cleaning supplies, etc. Kris is a very welcoming, helpful and communicative host. Trust me, you will not easily find a better "value-for-money-spent" vacation flat anywhere else in London.

As advertised, a snug, vest pocket apt that is wonderfully appointed and fully enjoyable. Only surprise was that is under-street level with stairs from street to door. Might be made clear in description.

We absolutely loved our stay at the Bijou place. The owners greeted us at the tube station and made sure we were comfortable at the place. The pantry and refrigerator were nicely stocked, and we had food for the first few days, super thoughtful. Mid-week kids received a treat of cupcakes from the owners. Overall, great place, a wonderful location. If I am ever in London, will definitely consider staying there again.

Perfect

Lovely flat, that is the perfect size. Great location for ease in getting around London. Great neighborhood feel, Sloan Square is close, Duke of York Square is even closer and great people watching. The flat is warm and welcoming and so are the hosts! It’s beautifully decorated and maintained. Arriving to a stocked fridge and bottle of wine was a wonderful touch after a long, late flight. You won’t be disappointed. We will definitely book again!

Schickes kleines Appartment

Sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtetes 2 Zimmer Appartment mitten im Leben in Chelsea. Restaurants und Läden in unmittelbarer Nähe, aber die Wohnung selbst liegt in einer ruhigeren Wohnstrasse. Wir haben zu dritt als Familie dort übernachtet. Das ging prima. Alles nötige inkl. Waschmaschine und Trockner ist in der Wohnung. Das Bett im Schlafzimmer kann mit 2 Personen genutzt werden, ist aber nicht riesig, ich denke 1,4 m. Dazu komnt die Couch im Wohnzimmer, die als Bettcouch ausgeklappt werden kann. Die Vermieter waren sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Wir hatten einen tollen Aufenthalt in der Wohnung.

Location, location, location!

This property is located just off Sloan Square which may be the best location in London. It's also a tremendous value. The host is charming and makes sure that every one of your requests is granted. He furnished the flat with fresh flowers, fresh fruit, yogurt, coke, water, and even a candy bar. It is a basement flat, so it's somewhat dark, although it has abundant lighting. It's just hard to beat the price and the location.

Great location and a good value but....

The very small unit itself leaves a lot to be desired with respect to its furnishings and decor. The small bathroom has an oddly shaped combination tub/shower with the height of the tub making getting in and out difficult, at least for these seniors. Also, one must stand in the tub to fully access the washer and dryer which is at the foot of the tub. The living room area lacks a rug which would have been a nice addition considering the cool temperature this time of the year. This photograph needs to be changed as it does not show the unit as it is currently furnished, the flooring and furniture are now different. In summary, while we were disappointed in the property it is a great Sloane Square location at a reasonable rental rate. A good safety feature to add to the property would be a motion sensor light that would be activated when walking down from the top of the outside stairs. It is difficult at night to see the steps when descending. The current motion activated light turns on only after reaching the bottom of the stairs.

Great location for a short stay in town

This could not be better for access to tube, shops in a nice part of town(Chelsea/Knightsbridge). Contained all that you need and we were comfortable. It is a basement flat so you give up some light and fresh air, but that is minor. Bathroom and shower a bit crowded so one person at a time! Key asset is location and a quiet street. Hosts were extremely helpful.
