The Reveal

Near LGBTQ+ SceneCozyGreat for Fitness LoversRelaxingCentral location

A truly unique, well-sized 3rd floor studio flat in a fantastic location complete with a private, south-facing balcony with a view of The Shard. The apartment includes a separate kitchen and bathroom to the bedroom/living area.

Grimthorpe House is located in EC1 and is half a mile from Angel and Farringdon tube stations. Restaurants and cocktail bars can be found close by on Exmouth Market. The surrounding area also includes other amenities such as supermarkets, cafés and more.

The property is ideally suited for solo travellers or couples. The south-facing balcony and west-facing window in the main living area ensure the space receives good light and a nice breeze on a summer's day.

An additional double sofa bed can be made up so that the apartment can accommodate up to four guests total if necessary - although parties larger than 2 will find this to be a bit of a squeeze, so we don't recommend this unless you plan to spend most of your time outside of the apartment.

If you would like to use the additional sofa bed please make this clear in your booking request, before your booking is confirmed.

Please also be aware that an additional £25 fee on top of the listing price will apply to parties of 2 sleeping separately that wish to have the additional sofa bed prepared with bed linens. Note that when booking for 3 or 4 guests, this fee is already automatically accounted for by ******** within the listing price.

30-something British tech entrepreneur. Born in Germany, grew up in Hertfordshire and been living in London now since 2014. I bought my apartment in 2019 and I really love it - I still live in it part-time. I'm putting the income I get from misterb&b towards improving it and making it even nicer! When I'm letting out the apartment on misterb&b, I usually stay elsewhere in London; so I'm only a quick cycle away if you need anything.

- No pets - No events - No smoking, vaping and/or e‐cigarettes allowed - Quiet hours are 23:00 - 07:00 - Commercial photography and filming is not allowed - When using the shower please ensure the bathroom door is closed and the bathroom window is kept open so that steam can be adequately ventilated from the apartment.
