Wild Iris

Wild Iris: New York

We're not going to pretend this home is filled with character, but what it does have is a prime NYC location. On the edge of Murray Hill, this is one of the city's oldest and most charming neighborhoods. The tree-lined streets are filled with brownstone townhouses, and you're within easy walking distance of Times Square, the Empire State Building, and Grand Central Station. If you’re looking for a night on the town, walk a few minutes to Third Avenue for great restaurants and bars. Back at your studio apartment, it's a small but very well-presented space. A great deal of care has been into the choice of modern, comfortable furnishings and the kitchen is fully kitted-out for cooking at home. Best of all, this building has excellent communal amenities – there's a pool if you feel like a few laps, along with a gym, a billiards room and a guest lounge.

Home truths:
*This is a studio flat so there isn't a separate bedroom here
*A third guest could sleep on the sofa bed next to the master bed
*This apartment is on the seventh floor but there is a lift
*Paid parking is available in the building – contact the host
*The home doesn't have its own washing machine or dryer, but they are available in the building
*There's a doorman to let you in 24 hours a day
