The studio is spacious and bright and has a separate kitchen. It is in the conservation area of St Katharine Docks, close to Tower Bridge and Tower of London. There is a double bed (135x190) as well as a futon (135x190) in the living room and a dining table. There is a balcony overlooking the communal courtyard and is a lovely space to chill out in the summer after a day exploring London. The flat will ideally accommodate 2 guests or 4 guests (parents with children for instance, the extra 2 persons will sleep on the futon).

The location of this property is ideal, easy walking distance to the Tower of London and a tube station. The apartment is bright, well stocked and the little balcony is very pleasant. The owner communicated essential details of the stay promptly and was available for questions via text/email. I would definitely stay here again!
We stayed in apartment on 3rd floor which had elevator and was easily accessible. Place was as described and was very clean. Was easy to find and host meet at the apartment and responds quickly to emails. There is a waitrose right across the street and you can walk to tower bridge in 5 mins.
Wonderful flat in a great location. Mike was easy to work with and gave clear instructions. The flat was clean and had everything ready when we arrived. He let us drop our bags before check in. The flat is within walking distance of the underground and various sights. We would recommend Mike and the flat. If we come back, this would be our first place to check availability.
Easy to get everywhereâŠ.10 minute walk to Tower of London, Tower Bridge, and underground. Bus stop at grocery store 3 minutes away. But quiet and up crowded. Plenty of great places to eat around the docks. Great communication. Clean and well kept.
This property was in an ideal location for us. It gave a nice reprieve from the noise of the heart of London. We enjoyed walking around the harbor, getting coffee at the various shops, while watching the boats pass underneath the Tower Bridge. The unit itself was clean and comfortable with the washing machine and drying racks coming in handy for us. The bed was comfortable and the shower had very hot water which we appreciated. David was attentive to our questions and answered our emails very quickly.
We will recommend this location to all or friends and family.
I stayed 3 solo nights in very well sized(excellent for 1 or 2), quiet and immaculate flat. I had some worries that I would be too far out of the way - but they were wrong. Nice area and easy access to Tower and Tower Bridge and on into other parts of London from Tower Hill station.
Interestingly constructed building with bonus of no other apt. above! Good grocery opposite and plenty of other dining ops both new and seasoned!! David was a friendly and informative host - well done!!
Nicht mal 5 Minuten zu FuĂ vom Tower Bridge entfernt, befindet sich dieses Apartment in einem versteckten Viertel an einem kleinen Hafen (St. Katharines Docks). Sehr ruhig gelegen, der groĂe Supermarkt Waitrose direkt gegenĂŒber des GebĂ€udes. Die Metrohaltestelle Tower Hill ist ca. 7 Min. zu FuĂ entfernt. Eine Bushaltestelle befindet sich in der StraĂe um die Ecke. Die Wohnung selbst ist sehr sauber und gut ausgestattet. Die Kommunikation mit dem Vermieter war sehr zuverlĂ€ssig. Bei der nĂ€chsten Aufenthalt in London wĂŒrde ich diese Wohnung wieder buchen.
Apartment was very comfortable and quiet, loved the balcony although it wasnât great weather so didnât use it very much, great location and lovely views, would definitely come back.
This was a great place to stay while visiting London. A short walk from the Tower Bridge station which was very convenient. It was very clean and it was easy to communicate with host.
No sounds of cars, jets or late night clubbing. Instead itâs birds chirping and leaves in the trees. This place is very convenient too: a waitrose 50m away, Tower of London and right next to a lively mark a with restaurants and views. We highly recommend.
The apartment was a perfect space for the two of us. The bed was comfortable and the location was nice and quiet. We did not do a lot of cooking but the kitchen was set up nicely if you want to cook in. St Katherine's Dock is a great location IMO; lots of great walking from there plus easy public transportation options. The host is very easy to communicate with. We definitely recommend!
We had an absolutely wonderful week at this flat â the location by the marina was the reason we booked it and also the outside deck and overall it was a great place! The grocery store is right across the street, the dickens pub is just around the corner and the tower hill tube station is a quick & easy walk along the docks. Mike was super helpful and responsive I definitely recommend.
This flat is very clean, well stocked and equipped , comfortable and a terrific location. The owner was very helpful and accommodating . We strongly reccomend this flat for a long visit .
Very nice and cute flat located in a great ! Absolutly clean,very quiet and offering everything you need for good stay! Good restaurants only a walk away and a food store right across the street. The tube station is only a few minutes away and takes you to the pulsing city! David is a wonderful,very kind and helpful host who makes sure your stay will be nothing but perfect!

Great Place in an Amazing Location!!!
My 13 year old son and I spent 14 days in this place and absolutely loved it! There are so many close restaurants and a grocery store right across the street. It is the model of convenience for city living. The flat is at the end of a long walkway, so you get the feeling that you have a fairly private location considering you are in a large building. We left the door open at all times we were up and at home to allow the very nice breeze to flow through the place. It was very refreshing and relaxing.
I slept in the bed and my son slept on the couch. There was maybe room for one more on the floor, but the bed would be tight for two adults, but would work for a couple who didn't mind being close, it was essentially a double size bed. The internet worked well and the kitchen had everything we needed for the stay. It was fully stocked with all the plates, glasses and silverware we needed as well as many other large items.
The place was great, but even better was the location. There are so many good restaurants and places to go and see in short walking distance. The location is safe and if you want, lively as there is plenty of nightlife close by at the Dickens Inn.
All in all, if you have just a couple or maybe a couple of friends, this is as good as it gets for the access and amenities. I highly recommend you give it a shot!
Stayed in this property for 3 weeks during a business visit, the flat was clean, comfortable and very well located .
The owners answered all queries promptly and communicated well throughout the whole reservation, booking in and stay period! Listing description and photographs accurate.

We are very happy with our stay!
The location is perfect. The apartment is small but very functional. We like it!
We had a great time during our stay in London and being able to return to the flat at St. Katherine's Dock made it even better. The location could not have been better as we were close to the Tube, the River Bus and shopping as well as within walking distance of many interesting sights, including the Tower of London. We were quite pleased with the flat itself.

Convenient, clean and comfortable
The location made travel in London easy with both bus and underground close by. Food shopping is directly across the road. The flat was quiet and with a comfortable bed, sleep was no problem at all. David met us to show the flat, and even arranged a taxi for our early morning departure - an extra service, as was the provision of complimentary toiletries. We would stay again.
Perfect stay, the neighborhood is upscale with many restaurants and a beautiful marina view. The supermarket is right accross the street. Safe and clean building, clean apartments with good linens and nice kitchen. The owner is very accommodating and sent good, very detailed check-in instructions and how to find the building. Very satisfied.
This was my second time staying in this complex and working with David and it won't be my last. This time I stayed in the 3rd floor studio. While not to my mind as charming as the 2nd floor flat, it is the same size, similarly furnished and equipped (note the washer!). I was perfectly content there. Perfect for a single person or couple.
The flat is quite comfortable and has everything one needs. Because it is on the interior courtyard it is quiet and private. The location is is one of big draws. You can get anywhere in London easily from this location and there's quite a bit to see and do and many options for food and drink nearby or just across the Thames. There's also a supermarket literally across the street.
David is very responsible and responsive. I have nothing but praise.
In the picturesque conservation area of St Katharine Docks, the flats are still in Zone 1 and a rapid commute will take you to the Landmarks of Central London.
