Guests rave about the location of this sleek penthouse fringing the City, and it’s easy to see why. Aldgate East Underground Station and the buzzy culinary scene of East London’s Shoreditch, Hoxton and Hackney are all just a short walk away. Part of a smart aparthotel, the shared facilities are a big draw. Expect a communal gym with in-house yoga classes and Peloton bikes, a café to grab brunch, and an outdoor terrace and member’s lounge with co-working spaces. Don’t feel like being sociable? The dining area perfectly doubles as a workspace back at the apartment, and the cityscapes seen from the living area are impressive.
