Eldon Chambers Pod 7 by City Living London Overview

Look, I’ll be honest – when I first heard “pod” accommodation in London, I was picturing something like sleeping in a washing machine. But Eldon Chambers Pod 7 actually surprised me in the best way possible. It’s tucked away on Devereux Court, which is this tiny little street that most tourists walk right past without noticing. You’re literally a two-minute walk from the Temple tube station, and I mean actually two minutes, not that inflated travel time hotels usually claim.

The thing about this location is that you’re in this weird sweet spot where you’ve got the chaos of the Strand just around the corner, but Devereux Court itself is almost eerily quiet – especially at night. It’s like stepping into this pocket of old London that somehow escaped all the noise. The building itself has this proper Victorian feel, and while the pod concept sounds super modern and minimalist, they’ve managed to make it work without feeling sterile. The space is compact, sure, but it’s smart compact, you know? Everything has its place, and honestly, after spending a day walking around London, you don’t really need a massive room to spread out in.

What I really appreciated was how they’ve thought about the practical stuff. The shower pressure is actually decent (which, let’s face it, can be a gamble in London), and there’s enough space to properly unpack a week’s worth of clothes without living out of your suitcase. You’re also right in the heart of legal London here – all those barristers in their wigs rushing around with important-looking papers. It gives the area this interesting energy during the day, though it does get pretty quiet after about 7 PM when everyone heads home. Temple Church is right there too, which is worth a peek if you’re into that sort of thing. The 8.1 rating makes sense to me – it’s not trying to be luxury, but it delivers exactly what it promises without any unpleasant surprises. For the price point and location, especially if you’re planning to spend most of your time exploring rather than lounging around your room, it’s actually a pretty clever choice. Just don’t expect a massive bathroom or room service at midnight – but honestly, with Borough Market a quick tube ride away and about fifty decent pubs within walking distance, why would you need it?
