Choosing Where to Stay for Your London Trip

A serviced apartment is an apartment that is typically fully furnished and is intended for

guests who are planning to stay short-term or long-term in a particular place. These provide

facilities that one may find in their own home, such as kitchens, living rooms, and study area,

among others. This is basically the reason why more and more travellers consider serviced

apartments as a good alternative to hotels; aside from the fact that they usually cost less, guests

have more control over their actions and they enjoy more space.

Finding serviced apartments in London is not hard, because many companies have put up

websites to make it more convenient for guests all over the world to inquire and to do their

bookings. Among these companies is SAIL (Serviced Apartments International Limited), which

has its head office in Edinburgh. Stay City Serviced Apartments also offer accommodations in

London and other UK cities, and they also have available spaces in Paris and Amsterdam.

Loving Apartments is more international, as not only do they have spaces in London, but in other

major European cities as well. Marlin Apartments, on the other hand, have 6 locations within

London alone.

London has a lot of notable attractions, and during the course of tourists’ itineraries they

are often found drawn to the shops. Guests who want to be near commercial centres may find it

convenient to stay in serviced apartments in Kensington, as Kensington High Street is known for

being London’s second best shopping street because of its many shops. Central London

Apartments offer a lot of accommodations in Kensington, from the relatively cheap to the more

luxurious ones. Some guests may plan to stay in Kensington for a little longer, and it is highly

advisable if they choose to stay in apartments that offer short-term lets. They may want to look at

Foxtons’ website to see the short-term lets available in Kensington. Aside from being

conveniently located near shops, Kensington is also known for places such as the Kensington

Palace, the Natural History Museum, and the Royal College of Art among others.
