Lancaster Gate sits on the northern edge of Hyde Park, and is one of the grandest and most stylish Victorian housing areas. The streets are lined with traditional white British terrace houses made famous in films such as Mary Poppins, Paddington and Notting Hill. The local area is filled with boutique 5-star hotels as tourists flock to the location due to its proximity to a large number of tourist attractions and the famous shopping districts of Oxford Street, Carnaby Street and Bond Street.
The residence could not be situated in a more convenient part of central London with both zone 1 Lancaster Gate Station and the huge ‘London Paddington Station’. This not only gives you access to all of London via four underground lines but also all of the UK via the excellent overground rail and coach services from the station.
This residence is situated in a large traditional Victorian terraced house, giving it a homely and welcoming atmosphere. There is even a small garden at the back perfect for taking a break from the busy city. This is a ‘low budget residence’ meaning it offers basic but excellent value accommodation in a prime area of London. The residence offers a range of single, twin and multiple rooms. There is a TV room to socialise in and a study area for when you prefer some peace and quiet. Guests are welcome to use the large communal kitchen to cook meals, although locally you can find a plethora of restaurants and cafes serving food and drinks from around the world.
Within the residence, an onsite laundry, reception team, CCTV and onsite security. All utility bills, including Wi-Fi and basic contents insurance, are encompassed in the price.
