Serviced Apartments Wembley

Benefits of Serviced Apartments

Serviced accommodation is ideal for temporary travellers or prospective residents looking to get a feel for a new city. Lower rental costs and a range of additional perks and benefits make these apartments a perfect alternative to busy city hotels or short term property lets, and TheSqua.re also handles all legal and contractual aspects, so residents need not worry about paying deposits, bills or agency fees: it’s all included. Extended stays can even result in exclusive benefits, such as gym memberships or discounted entry to local events, creating more incentive for postponing that departure, and the apartments also come fully furnished, with kitchen fittings, cutlery, furniture, bedding and washing facilities already in place, in order to ensure that every one of these luxury homes is as close to a castle as it is possible to be. Live it up from day one and feel truly in control of that stay away with TheSqua.re.

Corporate Accommodation in Wembley

Located close to the beating heart of London, Wembley provides excellent transport links throughout the wider city, making it an ideal destination for those looking for easy access to the capital’s commercial and financial quarters. Served by TFL, trips into Central London can be completed in almost no time at all, meaning that many of business and networking opportunities will be available right on the apartment’s doorstep for those intrepid startups and sole traders. Apartments in the financial districts, however, can be rather pricy, even for shorter stays, which is where corporate accommodation in Wembley can really shine. The apartments also come with fully-stocked kitchens, complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi, flatscreen TVs and much, much more, allowing even the busiest business traveller to unwind after a long day, and maximise productivity and profitability for the rest of their trip.

Holiday Accommodation in Wembley

Wembley is also a convenient destination for those looking for a leisure retreat, be that a weekend away or a first family holiday. With all of London’s top sights and attractions a short commute away, as well as proximity to famous sports and entertainment venues, Wembley can be a great place for groups or solo travellers looking to escape for a few nights. Whatever is on the agenda, holiday apartments from TheSqua.re can accommodate for quiet evenings in and nights on the town, thanks to their home-cooking and entertainment facilities. Plus, the cosy bedrooms allow guests to be well-rested for the next day, ensuring every trip is a memorable one.

Where to Stay in Wembley

There are a number of notable neighbourhoods in the Wembley area that offer great accommodation within easy walking distance of many top local sights and attractions. Wembley Park is the favoured destination for those looking to enjoy a concert or sporting event at the stadium or SSE Arena, and this neighbourhood also offers great transport links via the Jubilee and Metropolitan Lines and access to the Asda Superstore for any urgent retail therapy. The neighbourhoods of Alperton and Sudbury meanwhile are popular among golfing enthusiasts due to their proximity to Sudbury Golf Club and Horsenden Hill Golf, Disc Golf & FootGolf Centre. Though Wembley is generally a safe area of London, visitors are advised to keep an eye on their possessions, particularly during game days, as pickpockets tend to operate within the busy crowds.

Facts About Wembley

Known primarily for its famous stadium, Wembley has been dubbed the ‘Home of Football’ by fans of the sport. A stadium has been on the site since the 1920s, meaning that the area is just as steeped in history as many other more notable parts of Central London. Here are some of our favourite facts about Wembley new visitors will find fascinating:

• The first football match Wembley ever hosted was the 1923 FA Cup Final. There were allegedly 300,000 people in attendance, more than double the stadium’s capacity at the time.
• Approximately 40,000 pints of beer and 10,500 meals are consumed at every event the stadium hosts.
• Wembley’s original name was Empire Stadium, as its original purpose in 1920 was to host an exhibition of the British Empire. Then the FA got involved and the rest is history.
• The famous arch of the new stadium, at 315 metres long and visible from miles away, is the longest structure on a roof in the entire world. A symbol of national unity, people from the 83 counties that make up England participated in its construction. The arch also ensures that there are no restricted views from anywhere in the stadium.
• Each of the two giant screens in the stadium is the same size as 600 domestic television sets.

Cost of Living in Wembley

Though less expensive when compared to some other parts of London, property prices in Wembley can still be pretty high to rent. Average monthly costs can range anywhere from £900 to £2,500+, making serviced accommodation an increasingly viable option for longer term travellers, particularly when taking into account the many benefits and additional perks that come from extended stays with TheSqua.re.

Day to day activities, unfortunately, offer little in the way of savings. Weekly travel passes (for Zones 1-2) can run to upwards of £35, though there are discounts available for certain residents, while meals out can range from £15 for a meal for one to £55 for a three-course dinner for two. Some of this expenditure, however, can be offset by the next-to-nothing medical costs, with guests usually only having to pay for private or cosmetic surgery or dental care, and by the relatively inexpensive price of local groceries, with which travellers are able to prepare home-cooked meals in their fully equipped kitchens.

Getting around the capital is easy. London’s famous Underground is world-famous, and with 11 lines covering 270 stations, visitors can be assured they will never be too far from home. The Wembley area is served by several station and lines: Wembley Central (Bakerloo), Wembley Park (Jubilee, Metropolitan), Sudbury Town (Piccadilly) and Alperton (Piccadilly). These stations are arguably the most efficient ways of getting out and about, with Day Travelcards available to purchase (accepted through Zones 1-5) for around £20.

London is, of course, famous for its iconic taxis and red buses, and with 700 bus routes in operation across the city, including 52 night services, these travel options are also great for sightseeing. Wembley is reliably pedestrianised, so getting around on foot is a simple matter, and the area is also well-linked to the M1 and M25, meaning visitors with access to their own vehicle will be able to get out into the wider country in no time at all.

Weather in Wembley

With a generally temperate climate across much of the UK, the weather can range from temperatures below freezing during winter, to hot and balmy heights of thirty and above in the summer months. Unpredictable weather patterns, however, mean that rain may still be just a cloud away, so visitors are advised to pack wet-weather gear at all times of the year. September is usually a good time to visit Wembley, as this month offers warm days and comfortably cool evenings, allowing travellers to maximise their time away and make the most out of their city break.
