The apartment is in a very nice location, with a Metro station and shops around the corner. The interior is decorated very tastefully and the apartment comes equipped with anything you might need. However, this apartment could us some "freshening up". |

Dear Christoph, many thanks for your kind words. I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay at my place and liked the neighbourhood. Thanks also for the feedback. In fact, I'm just in the process booking quotes for updating the carpeting and décor in the flat. The place has been so much in demand this year that it's been tough to schedule the work, so I'm sorry you were not able to benefit from this. But if you ever visit again I hope you will see the difference! Regarding the sounds from neighbours, like most London residences, my flat is part of a converted Victorian house. This means it's impossible not to hear neighbours occasionally. I've always found the place very quiet, but if my guests can let me know if there's ever a problematic noise, that's really helpful, as I am in regular contact with all the owners of the other flats in the building and can talk to them about it. |

This was a beautiful apartment in Notting Hill. The landlady was awesome and extremely helpful. What a great experience! |

The apartment was very nice and very well furnished, it feels like home. The owner is helpful and very friendly. The insulation of the apartment could be improved, and it would be useful to put curtains in the bedroom in order to block the light. |
Answer by: Apartment Owner Oct 14 2015 |
Dear Remi, I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay in my apartment - to me it's a great compliment that it felt like "home". Thank you. Regarding the curtain in the bedroom, there should be one there but I'll check it out and get another with a thicker lining to block the light better. Most people find the apartment quite warm, so I'm so sorry to hear you were cold. Actually, the heating system has always been very efficient and is inspected once a year, the wooden shutters in the sitting room provide greater insulation when closed and there is an additional fan heater in the wardrobe (I apologise if you weren't aware of that). But I'll certainly check to make sure everything is working properly. Thanks so much for the feedback! |

What a fabulous English experience. The apartment is light and has charming aspect views. The location is wonderful, with easy access to transport and facilities. The neighbouhood is fascinating, any direction you turn has an interesting new character. It gives a great opportunity to really experience living in London. An amazing experience. |

St Luke's Road is a gorgeous little home in one of London's best locations. It has a lovely feel and is thoughtfully furnished with everything you need. Having stayed in other parts of London, St Luke's Road was very quiet and safe. |

The apartment was great - perfect for my requirements - good location, bright, quiet, all the necessary amenities and enough space that I was happy just to hang out there. |

First of all, the apartment is very well located. In a very quiet neighborhood and close to Portobello, a very nice tourist place. Like most London apartments, it is an old construction which sometimes lets you hear the noise from the other floors in the building. |
Answer by: Apartment Owner Oct 25 2013 |
Dear Gerardo - thank you so much for your review. I'm really happy that you enjoyed your stay at my apartment so much. And thank you also for the feedback on the bedroom. |

This is an amazing apartment in a wonderful neighbourhood. Would definitely again if and when I'm in London again, and would strongly recommend it to others looking for a place in London. |
Review by: Mercedes E., Feb 27 2013 From: Chile, Apartment Rental: 2 months |
St. Lukes Road flat was the best choice. The neighborhood is perfect-you are close to the underground but is a quiet and beautiful street. A few blocks from the center of portobello- nothing hill- kingsgrove av!!!! You are totally walking distance for everything and is a super secure area. |
Review by: Derek S., Feb 09 2013 From: United States, Apartment Rental: 1 month |
Fantastic location in the most charming corner of London. Stone's throw to Portobello market, quiet, leafy street, great nearby pubs and restaurants. The cozy top-floor flat has a wonderful view and plenty of light. |
Review by: Giulia P., Feb 04 2013 From: Italy, Apartment Rental: 1 month |
I would highly recommend this flat! It is very comfortable with all amenities, cozy and clean. The living-room has a very beautiful view, all the spaces are very well thought and quite. Besides St. Lukes Road it's in a very central and lovely position. |

The apartment was very centrally located with the closest tube station, Westbourne Park being only a 3 minute walk from the apartment. The station is on the Hammersmith and City line which stops at Paddington where you can alight for other trains to the West End. |
Review by: Ewan F., Jan 23 2013 Apartment Rental: 1 month |
We stayed in St Lukes Road for a month during January - the flat is in a superb location, right on the doorstep of the vibrant Portabello Road (famous for the street markets) and about a 15-minute walk from Kensington Gardens. |
Review by: Fabienne M., Jan 22 2013 From: Switzerland, Apartment Rental: 4 months |
Absolutely lovely flat in the heart of London's lovliest area. The location could not be better: Portobello road and shopping facilities are just a short walk away and so is a tube station and a bus station. |
