"I rented this beautiful apartment for a Bridgerton-inspired afternoon tea and craft party, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! The venue itself is newly refurbished, spacious, and absolutely stunning, everyone was so impressed. The kitchen was fully equipped with every utensil you could imagine, and the pull-out table accommodated all our guests perfectly. Although the flat is on the 5th floor and the lift wasn’t working, ETIENNE was an absolute lifesaver! He went above and beyond to help us carry everything upstairs, truly a godsend. Thank you so much, Etienne! All in all, it was a wonderful space that made our event so special. I’d love to use the flat again in the summer (fingers crossed the lift is fixed by then!). Highly recommend this lovely apartment and the amazing host!

"We hired this stunning Penthouse for a video shoot and were genuinely impressed. It looked exactly like the photos, beautifully styled and spotless and felt even more spacious in person. Communication and service before and during the shoot were flawless. As a photographer, I especially appreciated the lighting setup: all ceiling and floor lights were connected and could be adjusted for both colour and intensity, which allowed us to create the perfect mood for our shoot. The living area offers three distinct filming zones, each with its own character, and the ability to move or rearrange furniture. This made the space incredibly versatile for our needs. Etienne was fantastic throughout, responsive, professional, and super helpful from start to finish. Highly recommend this venue for any creative production. Thank you again for a great experience!"

"Great venue for our team sales kick-off! We had an outstanding experience from beginning to end. The space was warm, well laid out, and ideal for a mix of presentations and team-building sessions. A real highlight was the break out space in the living room. it gave us that “homey” feeling while still being a professional environment where we could brainstorm and collaborate in a more relaxed setting. Having the speakers on the ceiling was a nice added bonus coupled with the giant TV screen. Being able to also go outside on the balcony to take some fresh air during breaks was really appreciated too. Balcony is huge! Etienne helped us set up the venue - making sure everything ran smoothly, from tech setup to thoughtful little touches that made the atmosphere even better. This venue was the perfect mix of professional and creative. We’d absolutely recommend it for team events or company offsites. Our whole team left feeling inspired and energised!
