Why not try a staycation in London?

Published on: 5th March 2021

The word staycation has been used a lot lately and with good intentions too! Of course we all know why! What with travel restrictions in place and people generally more cautious of getting on a plane, it’s a great time to explore what is right on your doorstep. As more and more people plan for a trip down to Cornwall or hiking in the Lake District those places will become increasingly busy and may end up being quite crowded. With that in mind, this is the perfect time to take advantage of that and have more space to explore London!

To get prepared we thought we’d give you some things to think about before booking your trip. First things first is accommodation. Whilst UnderTheDoormat has a variety of properties available on our website all around London, we are extremely proud of our luxury aparthotel in Sloane Square. Its nine apartments are characterised by modern luxury - teeming with stylish furnishings and contemporary comforts, each apartment has plenty of space to unwind and includes a kitchen so you can choose whether to dine in or explore the fabulous restaurants and cafés on your doorstep. Live like a local in one of London's finest locations. The COVID-19 environment means that social distancing and impeccable hygiene standards are essential for any stay. With this in mind, travellers are seeking a ‘home from home’ experience that they can trust; and accommodation that offers the space and facilities of a homestay plus the high standards of a hotel, which is why we put in place our 10 Point Hygiene Promise. Each apartment at 3 Sloane Gardens is furnished to a luxury modern style and comes with well-equipped kitchens, luxury toiletries and most have a separate living space, so you can fully relax and enjoy your stay.

The apartments benefit from a number of services traditionally offered by hotels (such as a ‘live-in’ service manager, reception, and luxury linens and toiletries). However, for travellers who wish to indulge in a more independent stay, each apartment comes with its own kitchen - though food shops and restaurants are plentiful in the local area.

All apartments are available for short or extended stays, depending on your requirements.

For the next part of your trip you're going to need some things to do and luckily there is plenty right on the doorstep of 3 Sloane Gardens. The aparthotel is a stone’s throw from Sloane Square tube station that provides a convenient way to travel all around London. There are many local artisan food shops and restaurants on Pavilion Road and you are right next to the Kings Road which is full of designer fashion and delicious restaurants. Not forgetting Duke of York Square and the Saatchi Gallery!

Sloane Square is a vibrant, sophisticated neighbourhood packed with food, fashion and cultural pursuits in South West London. Located in the middle of Chelsea, Belgravia and Knightsbridge, it’s famous for its enticing combination of independent shops, fantastic restaurants and pubs and luxury stores – the perfect base for an exciting break!
