Located near the Natural History Museum, the Science Museum and the Victoria and Albert; your free time and weekends will always be filled with things to do in the heart of this historical city. Not only are you close by to a world of Museums and eating establishments from all corners of the world, this is one of the few residences to be within walking distance to Imperial College – a seven-minute walk away at that!
If a good, healthy, caffeine fix is what you need on a daily basis then why not visit Tombo for their renowned and infamous matcha’s. Tombo is London’s first authentic Japanese café and matcha bar. This small restaurant is not open to taking bookings but hosts a small but authentic Japanese menu of food and a massive menu of tea. Be sure to try the matcha ice cream, you will not be disappointed.
Why not have some quaint pub food and a drink in a beautiful Victorian pub located just minutes away from the residence. The food here is of an exceptional standard, all being freshly prepared on-site and not disappointing ever; this is probably one of the best places in town to experience eating pheasant for the first time, as it will ensure that you will want to continue eating it forever. Couple that with the cheerful staff and gluten-free beer – this will fast become your local pub whilst you are here!
This beautiful Grade II listed building in a highly sought after road in London has magnificent high ceilings, which makes the residence itself seem much larger inside than it actually it is. Everyone will find that the residence is especially for them; there is a large common area which is great for meeting other guests and making those friends for life. There is additionally a quiet study room for those studious types where you are able to get your work done with minimal interruptions.
Not only are all the utility bills included in the price of the rent, but you have access (for free) to a massive 50 MB of the internet over seven devices. There are no niggly hidden charges there for you to worry about. Another thing which is included in your stay for you would be the use of the state-of-the-art onsite gym – just for use by the residents! So no need to worry about the £50.00 a month gym membership at Virgin Active, when you have it all in-house.
There is an onsite laundry room for you to do all of your washing and drying in at any time of the day and night. The friendly bilingual reception staff are always on standby to assist you not only with any in-house questions or issues you may have, but also to help you adjust to life outside of the residence too.
