Top Serviced Apartments in Piccadilly

Serviced apartments in Piccadilly conjure up images of a view overlooking one of London’s busiest intersections, beneath an array of constantly flashing neon lights.

Of course, this is a rather simplistic view of Piccadilly. This is in fact a view of the famous Piccadilly Circus, Piccadilly itself is a road running through London’s West End, from Hyde Park Corner to Piccadilly Circus. It has actually been a thoroughfare through London since the Middle Ages and, although only around a mile in length, it is actually part of a much longer route which connects Hammersmith with Heathrow Airport.

Modern Piccadilly is an unusually wide and straight road when compared to other streets in the Capital. It is the very definition of ‘being where the action is’, surrounded as it is by the famous West End of London and all the theatres, landmarks and attractions that includes.

Piccadilly is far from just a road, however. Colloquially it is the area surrounding the road too.

Thanks to TheSqua.re, it is actually possible to stay in ‘home from home’ apartments in and around the Piccadilly area.

Here are some of the top properties nearest to Piccadilly:

All are unique and all offer all the comforts of home. Comforts which are often thought of as luxuries in traditional city accommodation, but the serviced apartments in Piccadilly from TheSqua.re all have them as standard.

Some even go above and beyond home comforts with the inclusion of extras such as gym facilities and concierge services.

More about Piccadilly, London

Corporate Accommodation in Piccadilly

Piccadilly is a great place to base oneself as a business traveller as it is very much a fun part of London, very much removed from the corporate areas of the Docklands and the City. Corporate visitors are increasingly demanding more leisure time on their business trips and there aren’t many more leisurely places than Piccadilly in London. Leisurely in terms of being full of fun, rather than laid back!

Although it is in London’s West End, it is still well connected to all of the central business districts so commuting to and from the office is always going to be incredibly easy.

In terms of the serviced apartments in Piccadilly themselves, they cater for all the demands a modern business traveller has. The mod-cons of everyday life such as flat screen TVs, entertainment systems and high speed wi-fi are all included as standard. 

A relaxing lounge area for use after a hard day at the office, plus a fully equipped kitchen area for preparing meals at home are also of huge appeal.

Holiday Accommodation in Piccadilly

For anybody who’s one of the millions of people that flock to London every year on holiday, it’s difficult to imagine a better place to stay than Piccadilly. The West End is famed as one of the entertainment capitals of the world. Plus, its central location is also fantastic in terms of accessing the major monuments and attractions across the rest of London.

Not only that, the serviced apartments in Piccadilly are themselves an attraction. Anyone who has tried to have a decent vacation whilst sharing a single room as a family of four will appreciate what they have to offer. As will people travelling as a group who have previously booked separate hotel rooms, but can now share an apartment with separate bedrooms but a welcome space to relax and even cook in.

Every property is selected according to a checklist of must have amenities. These include things as simple as having modern, tasteful decor through to being located close to transport hubs for ease of travel.

Where to Stay in Piccadilly

Facts About Piccadilly

Piccadilly is known for glitz and glamour, both from its proximity to London’s renowned Theatreland and its upmarket areas including Mayfair, home of the famed Ritz Hotel.

Here are some other things that aren’t necessarily as well known.

  • Piccadilly used to be called Portugal Street after Charles II’s Portuguese wife, Catherine of Braganza. 
  • The name Piccadilly came from a tailor who ran a shop at the beginning of the 17th century selling piccadill collars. He built a house called Piccadilly House and the name stuck. But no-one knows when Portugal Street became Piccadilly. Both were used until the middle of the 18th century.
  • The oldest bookshop in the UK can be found in the street. Hatchards started on the street in 1797 and has been in the current spot since 1801.
  • St James’s Church Piccadilly, sometimes hidden behind a market, is a little known church designed by Sir Christopher Wren. He of St Paul’s Cathedral fame.
  • London’s oldest covered shopping arcade can be found here. The Burlington Arcade has been around since 1819.
  • The Fortnum & Mason clock features both Mr Fortum and Mr Mason who emerge and bow to each other every hour.
  • The Hard Rock Cafe can be found in locations all over the planet. It has an American style and was actually founded by two Americans. But the first ever location was in Piccadilly in 1971.

Cost of Living in Piccadilly

Piccadilly is not the cheapest area of London, but that much should be obvious from the outset. It runs through London’s West End so is packed with tourists due to its proximity to the capital’s most popular landmarks and attractions, not to mention the famous Theatreland.

The real estate in the area is therefore some of the most expensive in London, new-build flats are currently being sold for anything between £10 million and £30 million. 

Traditional rental prices can be between £2,800 and £12,000 per month with the average being around the £8,000 mark.

Fortunately for the savvy traveller, there are savings to be made, not least in the renting of serviced apartments in Piccadilly. They not only offer long term savings, they also dispel with the need for tedious things such as contracts and tenancy agreements.

The other savings to be made are on travel. Piccadilly is within walking distance of quite a few major attractions, not to mention many company offices.

When it comes to eating out, as you would expect from a place popular with tourists, there are many poor quality, high cost restaurants looking to pull in the crowds to cover their high rent costs. Look off of the main streets to find a better quality bargain when it comes to eating out.

Tips for Visiting Piccadilly

Staying in or around the area of Piccadilly means staying right in the heart of London, arguably one of the most diverse cities to be found in the world. People spending time in this area in order to work or play soon find out how easy it is to do both of those things from this location. Practically every street has an attraction to see at some point and the area has a large number of companies based there too.

Despite all the advantages, due to the crowds, staying in Piccadilly can be a bit overwhelming, here are some tips to get by.

  • See if walking is possible. There are plenty of tube stations and buses around, but these are some of the most crowded sections of the line. Try walking first, there’s plenty to see in between stops.
  • Head west to South Kensington (on the Piccadilly Line). This is London’s ‘museum quarter’, and the majority are free entry.
  • Don’t necessarily eat out in Piccadilly itself. These are mainly restaurants aimed squarely at tourists and they tend to be poor quality and expensive. Though this isn’t always the case. 
  • An Oyster Card is the most cost effective way of travel on public transport. Remember, London buses don not take cash.
  • Do not drive into Piccadilly or Piccadilly Circus. It’s incredibly slow, very expensive and parking is pretty much impossible anywhere!
  • Visit Piccadilly Circus for photographs in both the day and the night to get the contrast.
