The New Romantic

This apartment may not be in central London, but that doesn't mean it's any less exciting. You'll find it near New King's Road, home to excellent restaurants, cafes, and shops. With Paron's Green Tube just five minutes away, getting to and from central London is also a cinch. The apartment itself is bright and roomy. We think groups will appreciate the open-plan design, as it makes it easy to relax, eat, and cook together. Just note that the two bedrooms on the upper floor are a little snug. Otherwise, it's a fuss-free option for a London getaway.

Home truths:
*This is a split-level apartment. The open-plan living space is on the main level, one bedroom is on the lower level, and two compact bedrooms are on the top floor, where the beds are pushed against the wall on one side.
*Although there isn't a desk here, the dining table can double as a laptop-friendly workspace.
*Parking isn't provided, but Parson's Green Station is a short walk away and offers easy access to central London.
