Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
If you like to be right at the epicentre of the action, then this home is the perfect place to drop your bags. It's in Covent Garden, in the heart of the city, an area once known for its fruit-and-vegetable market but now famous for its restaurants, bars and boutiques. This penthouse is stylish yet relaxed, with crisp, white walls, wooden floors and a comfortable, pale green sofa to relax on. There's a well-equipped kitchen where you can cook up both quick breakfasts and sumptuous dinners, and space for all your guests to gather around the dining table. The best feature, however, has to be the private balcony where you can gaze out at the street scenes below as you sip your morning coffee in the fresh air. When it's time to get out and about, you'll find London's West End theatres are right on your doorstep, and the bright lights of Picadilly Circus and Leicester Square are within easy walking distance. We recommend taking a ten-minute wander down to the Thames for a riverside walk that takes you past many of London's most iconic sights.

Local guide
About The West End
The West End is about as central as it gets, hundreds of restaurants and bars on your doorstep and you might even see the lights of Shaftesbury Avenue (London's Broadway) blinking through your curtains. It's certainly conveniently located for flopping into bed after seeing a show, but be warned you will be sharing the area with quite a lot of tourists and you won't find many proper Londoners or signs...
