Wilde Aparthotels London Aldgate Tower Bridge

The East End is making somewhat of a name for itself as the next hip, up-and-comer of the capital city. Having snagged a spot on the outskirts of the East End, these snazzy apartments will have you nice and close to the action. There are great London Underground links nearby, too, so you can easily zip across the city and see the sights.

During your stay you’ll be within shouting distance of the Tower of London – you can walk in about 20 minutes, or shave a couple of minutes off by taking the underground from the handy stop just a 5-minute stroll from the apartments. You’ll also find the iconic Sky Garden in this part of town – lush gardens housed in a skyscraper with some fairly instragammable views of the London city skyline.

Once you’ve gotten to grips with the underground, you’ll be able to easily venture s bit further afield. If Buckingham Palace is high on your list, you can get over there in about half an hour. From there it’s well worth your while to hop back on the underground and head a few minutes further west to South Kensington so you can hit a few museums. There’s natural history, art and design, and science on offer, so you’ll definitely find something to entertain your inner geek.

London is famous for being a real melting pot of cultures, and that comes through in the food offering here. From street food to fine dining, you’ll be sure to find a treat for your taste buds whether you’re a super adventurous foodie or you prefer to stick to what you know. Spitalfields Market is just a 15-minute walk from the apartments, and is teeming with food stalls offering up all manner of cuisines. If you fancy a sit-down meal, Soho and Covent Garden are full of great eats, but no matter what borough you’re in you’ll find plenty of restaurants and bars.

If you’re in the mood for a more chilled out evening after a day spent traipsing the city streets, you’ll love the well-equipped kitchens in each of the apartments here. Cook up a storm or order in a takeaway and stick on a movie on the flat screen TV – cold beverages optional but encouraged.
