Valentine` s Day ideas to spend in London

2012-02-10T06:05:00.000-08:00

Valentine`s Day is around the corner, and in this blog Short Let London will suggest some ideas about how to spend a romantic Valentine`s Day in London. There are so many interesting things to do and see in London, it is full of various restaurants where you can have a candle light dinner for two; you may visit a cinema to watch some love story classics, such places as Southbank Centre, The Round Chapel, Phoenix Cinema, The Troxy, Prince Charles Cinema, Rio Cinema are worth a visit; you might be interested to go for a night in a club or for a gig. Here, we would like to give some examples of adventurous and extravagant ways to make this Valentine`s day even more special.

London Eye offers a unique experience for couples to spend the evening in London Eye capsules, sipping champagne and admiring stunning skyline and views of the night city lights hand in hand with your honey. Before or after the champagne experience you can also go for sightseeing cruise on the river Thames and listen to fascinating live commentary.

Museum of London hosts a Pleasure garden Ball – a night of dancing, drinking and decadence, which recreates Georgian London`s pleasure garden. You will have a chance to dance with an 18^th century girls` band, watch theatrical performances, design and wear your own masquerade mask. Another London attraction – Royal Observatory at National Maritime Museum is hosting an Evening with the Stars event. So book a place on a unique observing session, which includes a planetarium show and a chance to look through 18-tonne Victorian telescope at the night sky. The only disadvantage is that this event is highly dependent on the weather, and if windy our too cloudy you might not be able to see the stars, - a presentation on the telescope will be delivered instead. You might also surprise your loved ones by whispering the words of love and give them a kiss high above the night London, at Tower Bridge. The bridge will be transformed into mesmerising romantic walkways for you to enjoy the heavenly atmosphere with a glass of champagne and fine chocolate.

Make a sweet surprise for your sweethearts and attend a workshop in chocolate making for two, with a chance to take your creations with you back home. For a relaxing and pampering Valentine`s Day, take your beloved for indulgence spa session, with full body wrap, aromatherapy and massage. Whatever way is working best for you, we are here to help you spend a memorable day of love this year. Short Let London would be happy to take care of your accommodation this Valentine`s day and provide you with apartment for even more romantic atmosphere.

Why do you think you need to rent a private flat rather than a hotel when visiting London?

2010-02-03T14:27:00.000-08:00

Recent surveys from a number of websites such as Facebook, Twitter and MySpace, have concluded that a higher percentage of people prefer to obtain a private flat to a hotel.

Well, in my opinion, they make the correct decision. Why? Let me explain.

Due to my working experience as a manager in a short lettings company, I have discovered that people are just as satisfied in private flats as in hotels. But, you have a couple more priorities in private flats, compared to those you get in a hotel. They are as follows:

- No one will disturb your privacy (no room service or anything like that to worry about);

- You keep your own set of keys, meaning you can come in and out at any time, without any restrictions;

- You have your own private kitchen, where you can always make your own meal at any time;

- And the main priority is the PRICE. You can seriously save up to 60-70% compare to average London hotel prices!

As you can see above, these are serious reasons for you to choose a private flat rather than a hotel. Especially if you are travelling on a budget, if you’re a student, or you have a short term contract with an employer.

If you are considering staying at a short term flat instead of a hotel upon your next visit to London, then you may look into companies that specialize in short lettings. One of those companies is our company www.shortlet-london.com

We are a small company in central London, that is run by the family, and has the experience of over 5 years. At the moment we are running over 50 self-catering, budget apartments (private flats) for short term rentals (short lease, short stay, holidays and vacations) in central London. We specialize in short term rentals from 1 night to up to 2-3 months. All apartments are fully furnished studio flats which contain a bed with fresh linen and towels, fitted kitchen with utensils, en-suite bathroom (shower cabin and toilet), TV, fridge, furniture. It is an ideal alternative to London hotels.

Based on our experience, the main customers of short lettings in London are:

- London holiday makers (vacations);
- Business people on short business trips;
- London students on short courses;
- London workers on short contracts;
- Temporary accommodation while looking for a permanent home in London (Settle up rentals) ;
