NEW Oxford Circus 2 Bedr, 3 Beds Best Location

Hotel Description

Honestly, when I first walked up to this place on Mortimer Street, I wasn’t expecting much – the entrance is pretty understated, which is actually refreshing in this part of London where everything screams for attention. But once you’re inside this two-bedroom setup, you realize why it’s pulling a 9.4 rating. The space feels way bigger than most London accommodations, and I mean that in the best possible way. You’ve got three proper beds here, which sounds odd until you’re traveling with friends or family and suddenly everyone has their own space without fighting over the sofa bed.

What really got me was the location – and I know everyone says that, but hear me out. You’re literally a two-minute walk from Oxford Circus tube, which means you can stumble home after a night out in Soho without paying surge pricing for an Uber. But here’s the thing most people don’t realize: Mortimer Street itself is actually pretty quiet, especially compared to the chaos of Oxford Street just around the corner. There’s this little independent coffee shop called Workshop Coffee about thirty seconds away that locals queue up for every morning, and honestly, their flat whites are better than most of the chain stuff you’ll find on the main drag. The area has this weird mix of media offices and residential buildings, so it feels lived-in rather than touristy – you’ll see actual Londoners walking their dogs instead of just crowds with shopping bags.

The apartment itself has this modern but not sterile vibe, if that makes sense. The kitchen actually works (shocking, I know), and there’s enough counter space to spread out if you’re doing the whole “cook dinner at home because London restaurant prices are insane” thing. One small thing that impressed me – the WiFi is genuinely fast, not the usual hotel internet that barely loads Instagram. The bathrooms are clean and modern, though the shower pressure could be stronger, but that’s pretty much par for the course in older London buildings. What I really appreciated was how quiet it stays at night – you’re close enough to everything that you can walk to Fitzrovia’s restaurant scene or catch a show in the West End, but the double-glazed windows actually keep the street noise out. Check-in was straightforward too, none of that awkward waiting around in a lobby situation. You know what surprised me most? The heating actually works properly, which sounds basic but you’d be amazed how many London places get this wrong, especially during those damp autumn months when the cold just seeps into your bones.
