Shiny 1BR Flat in Fitzrovia, 2 min to Tube

Hotel Description

You know what really caught me off guard about this place? The moment you step out the front door on Grafton Way, you’re basically already at Goodge Street station – I mean, it’s literally a two-minute shuffle in your slippers if you wanted to (though I wouldn’t recommend it). The flat itself sits in this lovely Georgian terrace that somehow managed to dodge the worst of London’s architectural mishaps over the years. Honestly, Fitzrovia gets overlooked by most tourists who are busy rushing between Oxford Street and Camden Market, but that’s exactly why it works so well.

The one-bedroom setup is what I’d call “efficiently brilliant” – everything’s been thought through without feeling cramped. The living area actually gets proper light, which is sort of miraculous for central London, and the kitchen’s got enough space that you won’t be doing that awkward dance around your flatmate every morning. I spent a good chunk of my time working from the little dining table by the window, watching the neighborhood wake up with proper coffee shops (not chains) and locals heading to work. The bathroom’s modern enough that you don’t feel like you’re staying in someone’s university digs, and the shower pressure – well, let’s just say it’s better than half the four-star hotels I’ve stayed in. The bed’s comfortable, though if you’re sensitive to street noise, you might want to pack earplugs since Grafton Way does get the occasional late-night taxi or delivery truck.

What really sells this spot is the neighborhood itself – you’re genuinely in the thick of things without the tourist chaos. Fitzroy Square is a three-minute walk and perfect for morning runs or just sitting with takeaway coffee. The building’s got that solid, old-London feel where you’re not hearing every conversation through paper-thin walls, and check-in was refreshingly straightforward (none of that “sorry, housekeeping is running behind” nonsense). I’d say the 7.3 rating feels about right – it’s not going to blow your mind with luxury touches, but it nails the basics and gives you that authentic London living experience. Plus, being this close to the tube means you’re fifteen minutes from pretty much anywhere you actually want to be, whether that’s the British Museum, King’s Cross, or a proper pub crawl through Marylebone.
