Regents Serviced Apartments by StayPrime

Hotel Description

You know what surprised me about Regents Serviced Apartments? It’s actually tucked away in this brilliant spot between Fitzrovia and Camden – and I mean the proper Camden, not the tourist circus around the Lock. When I first walked up, honestly, I almost missed it because it sits quietly on this tree-lined street that feels more residential than hotel-ish, which is exactly what you want when you’re staying somewhere for more than a couple nights.

The thing about StayPrime’s setup here is they’ve really nailed that “home but better” vibe without trying too hard. My apartment had this proper kitchen – not some sad mini-fridge situation – with actual counter space where I could spread out my laptop while my coffee brewed. The living area felt lived-in rather than sterile, you know? Soft lighting, decent-sized sofa where you could actually stretch out and watch Netflix after trudging around London all day. What I really appreciated was the attention to those little details that matter when you’re settling in somewhere: proper hangers in the wardrobe, enough power outlets (finally!), and blackout curtains that actually block out the streetlights. The bathroom had one of those rainfall showerheads that makes you wonder why your flat back home doesn’t have one.

Location-wise, this is where they’ve got something special going on. You’re literally a five-minute walk to Goodge Street tube, which means you can be in Covent Garden or Oxford Circus without the usual crush of tourists staying right in the thick of it. But here’s what the booking sites don’t tell you – you’re also walking distance to some properly good local spots that most visitors never find. There’s this fantastic Lebanese place on Charlotte Street that does incredible mezze, and if you head toward Regent’s Park (which is closer than you’d think), you’ll stumble across these gorgeous Georgian squares that feel like secret London. I mean, I spent half a morning just wandering around Fitzroy Square with my coffee, watching the neighborhood wake up. The area gets busy during weekday lunch hours with all the media types from the BBC, but evenings and weekends it’s surprisingly peaceful. Parking’s a nightmare, obviously – this is central London – but honestly, you won’t need a car anyway. The staff were genuinely helpful too, not just going through the motions. When I mentioned I was looking for a good bookshop, the guy at reception didn’t just point me toward Waterstones but actually recommended this brilliant independent place on Museum Street that I never would have found otherwise. That’s the kind of local knowledge that makes a difference when you’re trying to feel at home somewhere new.
