Perfect Nest!

by Amy J

We’ve stayed at the Shelley twice. The apartment is very well appointed, with a modern kitchen and a terrific bathroom (made even more appealing by heated floors). With access to Kensington Garden only five minutes away the location is great. The apartment is quiet, with wonderful views of neighboring gardens and the spire of St. Mary Abbots. Kensington High Street and its Tube stop are just a few minutes away, with three grocery stores and many restaurants to choose from. The staff of London Perfect have always been very responsive to our questions and we look forward to returning.

Perfect Location!

by Bonnie J

We were more than happy with the service of London Perfect and the Shelley apartment. We loved the quiet of the location even though we were a 5 minute walk to restaurants, grocery stores and the tube. The apartment was very comfortable and cozy. Pretty views from all windows. Would definitely stay here again if I’m lucky enough to make it back to London!

Prime Location

by Michelle

I absolutely love London Perfect and Paris Perfect apartments. They are always well apportioned and in great locations! The Shelley apartment is bright, in a great location and has everything you could possibly need. There is one tiny warning, which is the terrace in the apartment isn't usable. There are A LOT of pigeons on the terrace. Maybe 10 - 15 when it's at its max. It's a shame because it's beautiful. Apparently, there is a neighbor that feeds them and that is what attracts them and encourages them to hang around. Other than that, the apartment is great! 

Hello Michelle, thank you for taking the time to review your stay. We are so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay. The onsite team is actively looking into effective and humane methods to chase the birds away and prevent them from gathering on the terrace in the future. We look forward to welcoming you back next time. Kind regards, the London Perfect team.

Perfect Location!

by Robin Andrew

The Shelley is the perfect London home away from home. Nestled between lovely Holland Park and Kensington Gardens it’s a walker’s paradise. The flat has all the amenities for a comfortable stay in a neighborhood that is conveniently located near food shopping, restaurants and the underground. We will definitely come back on a future trip to London when we can enjoy the outdoor patio.

A Charming Apartment

by Amy Jordan

The Shelley is a lovely, cozy apartment in a location that can’t be beat. My husband walked in Kensington Gardens every day and hated to part with it. I love to cook and having so many choices for grocery shopping on Kensington High Street was wonderful, as was having the modern kitchen to work in. Being within walking distance of two different tube lines was very convenient, allowing easy access to all of London. The staff of London Perfect was very helpful at every step. We look forward to working with them again.

Great Stay at the Shelley

by Amy

First time using London Perfect and no pun intended but it was perfect. The apartment was wonderful! We wanted for nothing. On a wonderful little side street so while quiet it was close to shops, restaurants and grocery stores. We loved being close to Bayley & Sage as well as Whole Foods. And having the High St. tube so close was an excellent perk. I would definitely book through London Perfect again!

Ideal London Base

by Keith Mowatt

The Shelley was perfect for our stay of two weeks. It is a very well appointed flat with an incredible location, steps to the High St and tube. We loved the neighbourhood with shops and restaurants so close by as well as a charming little pub across the street. Opening the window blinds every morning to see the spire of St Mary's Church was just lovely, and listening to the church bells ring on Sunday mornings was so nice too! The flat has lots of storage space for guests clothes, the shower is spacious and had great water pressure, the kitchen is stocked with all the required needs to cook in the flat. We would happily stay in the Shelley again!

Delightful flat and ideal location

by Anne Dilley

My husband stayed in the Shelly for six nights in August/September and found the apartment and location to be ideal. The flat is small but cozy and well appointed - modern kitchen and bathroom, pleasing furnishings, very comfortable bed. The location is charming and quiet, yet only a 5 minute walk to high street with all the shops, restaurants, and groceries (Whole Foods!). As usual, London Perfect was as their name states - Perfect! We are repeat London Perfect guests and in fact have another upcoming trip to London, staying in a London Perfect rental, always our first choice.
