2 Bedr, 3 Beds, 1 Bath Thames, Trafalgar SQ

Hotel Description

Look, I’ll be honest – when I first saw the name “2 Bedr, 3 Beds, 1 Bath Thames, Trafalgar SQ,” I thought someone had just copy-pasted a Craigslist ad. But this place on the Strand is actually one of those hidden gems that makes you feel like you’ve cracked some sort of London code. The address puts you smack in the middle of everything that matters, and I mean *everything* – you’re literally a three-minute walk from Trafalgar Square (though honestly, who’s counting when you can see the lions from the corner?).

What really got me was how quiet it stays despite being on the Strand. You know how London can be with the constant hum of buses and black cabs, but somehow this spot manages to buffer most of that chaos. The apartment itself is one of those classic Westminster conversions where they’ve actually thought about how real people live – the three beds aren’t just afterthoughts crammed into a shoebox, and the single bathroom doesn’t feel like you’re queuing for a club toilet. The Thames views aren’t just estate agent exaggeration either; on clear mornings you can watch the river do its thing while you’re making coffee, which… well, it beats staring at a brick wall.

Here’s what I wish someone had told me before my first stay: the entrance is a bit tricky to spot if you’re dragging luggage and squinting at house numbers, so give yourself an extra few minutes. Also, you’re going to want to grab groceries from the Tesco Express on Wellington Street rather than the overpriced tourist traps near Covent Garden – it’s a five-minute detour that’ll save you a fortune. The location means you can actually walk to most of the big-ticket stuff (Westminster Abbey, the Eye, even Borough Market if you don’t mind a stroll), but more importantly, you’re close to those brilliant little pubs tucked away in the side streets that most visitors never find. The 8.9 rating makes sense when you factor in that you’re getting proper London living without the tourist tax that usually comes with being this central – though I’d probably book early if you’re coming during summer or around Christmas, because word’s definitely getting out about this one.
