| My husband and 13 year old daughter spent 5 days at Albany Court in late June. The flat was in great condition and the location ideal to the tube and other tourist sites. I was pleasantly surprised that the Murphy bed - although in the living room - could be closed off as a separate sleeping area too (perfect for a 13 year old). Anita was also great to work with. We would definitely stay at Albany Court again. |

My wife and I stayed here for two weeks (late April/early May - 2009) and really enjoyed it. Big Ben/Parliament and Westminster Abbey are right around the corner. Tube station right there. Grocery stores are a short walk away. St. James's Park (which is wonderful by the way) is right there. Just a really great location.
The flat itself is nice and the ability to cook when you want and to run some laundry in the flat while you're out sight-seeing is very helpful.
We had a great time and would highly recommend this flat to others. |

| My husband, 21 year old son and I spent a wonderful week at this spacious, delightful flat. Not only was the location great but it was clean and well furnished. Anita is so helpful to work with it truly couldn't have been easier or worked out better. Why would you stay in a tiny hotel room when you can have all this? |

My husband and I stayed at this apartment for a week on vacation with my in-laws. This apt exceeded my expectations. All apts claim to be in a great location but this one truly was in a great location. It's close to most tourist spots; the tube station is really next door (and no you don't hear the noise). There's a convenience store in the ground floor of the building. The grocery store is less than 5 mins walk. The apartment must have been renovated in the not too distant past. It had lots of storage space. Even though it's only one bedroom, there is a hallway that separates the living room, kitchen and bathroom. So this apt was as good as two bedrooms. The bathroom is spacious; the towel warmer adds that extra touch. The wireless internet access is invaluable. The apt has little things of great convenience like tour books, reataurant guides, umbrella and even plug adapters to work with appliances from different countries. The owner has extra-ordinary patience and is great to work with. Highly recommended.
Advice to guests: Front-loading washer doesn't dry very well. You will have to hang clothes overnight for drying (there is a rack in the closet). So pack accordingly. |

| We were in London for a week for our son's wedding and chose Albany Court based on other positive recommendations. Everything about the flat and our stay was perfect. Its proximity to so much (including the tube station) was a double bonus---we saw the changing of the guard not once, but twice. And walks in St. James' and Hyde Parks were fun(we had lovely weather). Anita was always responsive to our questions and concerns prior to our arrival. Having all the guide books available was great. We would definitely stay at Albany Court again. |

I didn't want to leave!
I've stayed in various self catering properties in London before, but this has been one of my favourites. Such a comfortable and lovely flat!
It's situated next to the underground station, and the location is perfect.
The park is a very short walk, there are numerous pubs and restaurants nearby, as well as a convenience store directly below the flat, and a large grocery store a short walk away.
The flat was spotless, with high quality linens, lovely furnishings, a wonderful new TV and DVD player, and loads of 'extras'.
The owner was such a delight - very professional, friendly and accommodating.
I'm already planning my next visit and highly recommend this flat to anyone considering it. :) |

| A fabulous location within easy walking distance of many London sites including Buckingham Palace, London Eye, parliament buildings, west end theatres and restaurants, Trafalgar Square, Churchill’s wartime bunker, etc. Also extremely convenient access to the London Underground, shopping, a grocery store, and friendly neighbourhood pubs. The flat is comfortable, and well equipped with most of the usual amenities of home. A very enjoyable stay! |

The flat was lovely and the location made our trip just that much more special. In the past I'd stayed in Bloomsbury and never had a chance to explore around St. James's Park. Until our stay at Albany Court I never knew what I'd missed on previous visits. Tube station, pub, corner store all within a stone's throw and a large market minutes away made for a relaxing stay. Having the ability to see sights during the day and come back and relax and feel as if we were in our own home made our visit perfect albeit too short.

Location of this apartment is perfect - an Underground stop 2 minutes from the door; a large grocery store a 6 minute walk and many sights (Buckingham Palace/London Eye/changing of the guard) within a 10 to 15 minute walk; a park to run/walk or feed the ducks is 5 minutes away. Airport is an hour on the Underground and train stations to get to the countryside are 10 - 20 minutes by Underground.
The apartment is roomy enough for three adults, clean and airy. It has just about everything you will need from the complete kitchen with combination washer and dryer to a pile of travel books on London to a couple of umbrella to tote along.
Feel free to email with questions. |

My husband, teen-aged daughter, and I spend a wonderful week at Albany Court. We can't decide which part was best: the fact that we could stroll to Westminster Abbey and Buckingham Palace, that we were at a tube station (connnected to a great line) within moments of leaving our front door (the only days we used cabs were to take our luggage to and from the airport), that everything was so accessible that we could stop by, change clothes, eat something and run out again without sacrificing precious vacation time, that the apartment itself provided everything we needed and more. Needless to say, it was very clean, well-appointed and there was plenty of space for the three of us.
We hope to return soon. |

| Our family of four thoroughly enjoyed our 6 night stay in June. The apartment was spacious, clean, comfortable and perfectly located so we did a lot of walking to/from various sights(Buckingham Palace, Westminister Abbey, London Eye, Trafalgar Square etc). Amenities were also close by - supermarket, convenience store, tube, Starbucks coffee shop. Having 2 young kids, we made good use of the TV/DVD, kitchen and washer/dryer facilities. We'll definitely recommend the apartment to any friends/family visiting London and hope to visit ourselves again soon. |

My friend and I stayed here for 8 days in April,
2007.Perfect location! Within walking distance of Westminister Abbey, the Houses of Parliament, the London Eye. A terrific pub is across the street, the tube is around the corner, a small convenience store is directly below the flat. What more could you want? The owners are in the process of upgrading the
television and remodeling the bath. Should be absolutely brillant!
Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

| A wonderful apartment--light, airy and (for London) amazingly quiet with double-glazed windows in the bedroom. St. James Park is only a short block and a half away--a beautiful respite when the city becomes too much. And great internet connection for your computer. We'll be back! |

My family of 4 stayed in this apartment. The location is great. We're a family of runners and we were able to start each day with a nice jog around St. James Park.
Inside, the apartment is clean and comfortable. I would definitely consider staying here again if we return to London. |
