Central London 1 bed near Regents Park

Hotel Description

You know what really struck me about this place? Walking up Cleveland Street for the first time, I honestly wasn’t expecting much – it’s one of those quiet Fitzrovia streets that doesn’t scream “tourist destination.” But that’s actually what makes this flat so brilliant. You’re literally a three-minute walk from Regent’s Park (I timed it, because I’m weird like that), and you can slip into the park through the York Gate entrance without dealing with the crowds that pile into the main entrances further south.

The flat itself sits in a classic Georgian building – proper old London, with those satisfying heavy doors and the kind of hallway that echoes when you’re dragging luggage up. Inside, it’s been done up really thoughtfully. I mean, whoever sorted this place out actually gets what travelers need. The bed’s genuinely comfortable (not just “fine for a few nights”), and there’s proper wardrobe space, which – let’s be honest – half these London rentals completely forget about. The kitchen area works well if you’re the type who likes grabbing stuff from the Waitrose on Goodge Street and having breakfast at home rather than spending £15 on hotel coffee. Speaking of coffee, the machine here is decent, though I’d still recommend the little café on Riding House Street if you’re after something special.

What I really love about the location is how you’re in this sweet spot where you feel like you’re living in actual London, not tourist London. Warren Street tube is right there – honestly, you can make it in under two minutes if you walk fast – and you’ve got both Northern and Northern City lines, which opens up so much of the city. But here’s the thing locals know: you’re also perfectly placed for walking everywhere central. Tottenham Court Road, Oxford Circus, even Covent Garden – they’re all totally doable on foot, and you get to see London properly instead of just tunneling underground everywhere. The street itself stays pretty quiet at night, though you’ll get the occasional late taxi, and weekend mornings can be a bit lively with people heading to the park. There’s something quite nice about that though – it feels lived-in rather than sterile. I’d definitely stay here again, especially in spring when Regent’s Park is doing its whole flower show-off thing and you can practically roll out of bed into one of the most beautiful spots in London.
