Ice-Cream Parlour

Set in the heart of London, this apartment brings soft, homey comfort amidst the high-rise buildings. Designed by New York architects, it offers contemporary minimalism, with a pastel colour scheme and floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the space with light, giving an open and airy feel. Wake up and get your caffeine fix with a cup of coffee from the kitchenette. The blushed block sofa is perfect for putting your feet up and flicking through the channels on the smart TV, or pour yourself a glass of wine and watch the world whizz past through the windows. As part of a trendy aparthotel, the space has a few added extras. Had a long day? That can be worked out either in the sunshine-yellow cocktail bar or down in the basement gym before heading back to your nest and watching the night sky come to life.

Home truths:

*You'll have access to a gym, lobby and cocktail bar here
*This home doesn't come with parking, but with London's excellent public transport system, you likely won't miss it
*The host has several very similar homes in the same building – the exact layout, views, and design of your home might vary slightly from the photos
