About this apartment rental
Nicely designed second floor apartment with high ceilings, located in a beautiful former 1800's Bank Building from the Victorian era, overlooking a park and the historical Smithfield Market. The apartment has a bright living room with lots of light, a kitchen area, a double bedroom and a bathroom with shower.
.
The location also has the fantastic fine dining and cafe culture of Smithfield and Clerkenwell on its doorstep with traditional pubs, Michelin-starred restaurants, many cafes and great options for family or late night dining. It is a perfect location for enjoying London, with all the famous landmarks very nearby. Museum of London and the original Roman city walls are 4 minutes walk away, St. Pauls Cathedral just 600 meters. A short walk further brings you across the Millennium footbridge over the Thames to the Tate Modern Museum and attractions near London Bridge and Tower Bridge.
There is a double bed in the bedroom, and in the living room there is a double bed too. Both rooms are private and can be closed off completely. The bathroom in the apartment is accessible separately from both spaces.
Great spot for transport across London. It is a 2 minute walk to the new high-speed Elizabeth Line (Paddington in 8 minutes), and Barbican (180 m) and Farringdon Underground Stations (100m), very close to St Paul's station and has perfect train links to all of London's airports.
Culture and Attractions: You will enjoy the many cultural attractions nearby, including Barbican Center for Theatre, Art and Dance - Europe's largest multi-arts venue and home to the London Symphony Orchestra is a 3 minute walk (300 meters); British Museum, Portrait Gallery, and many other venues within minutes. The location is ideal for quick access to the trendy Hoxton and Shoreditch.

The location is very convenient, walkable from both the Farringdon and Barbican tube stations. The Elizabeth line from Heathrow stops at Farringdon. The neighbourhood felt safe. There is a small lift, big enough for 1 person with suitcases or 3 light people without. The flat itself is very cute and nicely appointed. The bedroom has a double bed with comfy mattress and bedding, three small drawers and a closet with good storage. The kitchen/lounge area has two day beds with decent mattresses and comfy bedding. One can be pulled out into a double bed. The kitchen has a small fridge, microwave, kettle, Nespresso machine, dishwasher and range, with plenty of dishes etc. There was no coffee but there was tea, sugar and sp. Toilet paper, washing up liquid and dishwasher pods are also provided. The flat has a good washer/dryer combo which was nice. Laundry soap provided. The bathroom was small but a good use of space. There is a stand up shower. Bring your own toiletries. Only one caution - nearby is a commercial meat market that runs overnight. It can be noisy. But there are double windows and blinds which help. Do bring earplugs if you’re a light sleeper. Communication with the owner was great. Would recommend and will return!

The apartment was perfect for my daughter and me, and its location near the Farringdon and Barbican tube stops was ideal. It’s a few floors upstairs from a pub, but it’s actually quiet in the apartment due to extra panes of glass that have been installed on the windows. There are lots of restaurants and shops nearby, and grocery stores a short walk away. I will 100% stay here again.

The picture was not accurate, the living area had 2 twin beds instead a a double bed and no sofa for sitting, the a/c was a portable unit that really didn’t cool even the main area much less the rest of the apartment. We managed but it’s really a place for young adults who don’t care
