How do I find an Executive Apartment in London
The quickest way to find executive apartments in London is to narrow down the options by selecting a neighbourhood, thinking about how much you can spend and working out what the most important amenities or facilities you need to be comfortable.
Our specialists are experienced at searching and sourcing the best options at the lowest rates for a wide range of budgets and specifications, so if you need expert help, get in touch.
We would also recommend considering properties or accommodation providers who are independently accredited for their quality, service and health and safety standards so that you can be assured that the serviced apartment you choose meets all necessary regulatory requirements and is committed to delivering a great stay experience.
Our portfolio features many serviced apartments who have been awarded accreditations such as ISAAP Compliance Accreditation which is in line with ISO 31030.
Location
Start by researching local neighbourhoods and choosing one or two locations that you would like to live in. Also consider if the areas are easy for your needs (i.e to travel to a place of work or meeting).
Budget
Working out how much you can spend on a weekly or monthly basis or what your company allowance is for your stay will make the search a lot easier.
Facilities
Apartments in London vary in property style and on-site facilities and amenities. No two apartments are alike and hence making sure you know what your top priorities are when it comes to facilities is key to finding the right place for your stay.
You may prefer to have a 24 hour reception, twin beds if you are sharing with a colleague, car parking space, gym on-site, or air-conditioning (especially in the Summer months).
What to check when you book an Executive Apartment in London
These are some important points to check before confirming you or the person you are booking on behalf of will have a great stay and avoid any unecessary disappointment.
Layout
Check the floorplan if this is available to get an idea of the layout and size.
Some apartments have open plan living areas, single bedrooms, a separate bathroom and WC, situated on the lower ground floor or have internal stairs (i.e Mezannine floors or Duplex style).
Arrange a viewing
We would highly recommend arranging a viewing before confirming the booking especially if it is for a stay of 14+nights.
Viewing the apartment in person allows you to see first-hand the standard of the furnishings, check out the local neighbourhood, what the access to the property is like and also imagine what it will be like living there.
We can also arrange for virtual viewings for those who are unable to travel to the property for a viewing.
Terms and policies
Check all the terms including when payment is due (and what the arrangement is for monthly billing), if you can reclaim VAT, what the security deposits are and when this will be charged and refunded and what the cancellation and amendment policies including any fees that may apply.
