For the Traveller Who Has Stayed Everywhere. And Now Prefers Somewhere Entirely Their Own.
There is a point in the experience of travelling well at which the five-star hotel, however celebrated, begins to feel like a concession. The lobby is beautiful but shared. The suite is spacious but still one room within a large operation.
Luxury Leisure and Private Travel
The service is attentive but divided among hundreds of other guests. Select Apartments offers what experienced luxury travellers are increasingly choosing instead: a private residence across one of central London's finest addresses, managed as if it were your own home, with a team dedicated entirely to your stay.
Guests at this level come to London for many reasons: for the cultural season, for private business, for extended family visits, for the shopping and dining that only London delivers at the scale and quality they expect. What they share is a preference for privacy, a residence that reflects the standard they live at and a host who understands that the difference between good and exceptional lies entirely in the details. Our residences are not for everyone. They are for guests who recognise that distinction.

Every Select Apartments residence places our guests within reach of everything that defines London at its finest.

Frequently Asked Questions
To discuss a stay at one of our central London residences, contact Select Apartments directly. Every enquiry is handled personally and in complete confidence.
How do I arrange a stay at very short notice?
Call Select Apartments directly. We accommodate last-minute requests wherever possible and will always be transparent about what is available across the collection for your dates.
Can you arrange private dining within the residence for a group?
Yes. We work with vetted private chef partners who provide anything from an intimate private dinner to a larger group lunch within the residence. All arrangements are made in advance and managed entirely by our team.
Can I use a Select Apartment as my permanent London base across multiple visits?
Many of our guests do exactly this, returning to the same residence across visits throughout the year. We are happy to discuss a recurring arrangement that secures your preferred property for your dates well in advance.
Can you accommodate guests travelling with household or personal staff?
Yes. We make arrangements for accompanying staff, whether that involves additional accommodation nearby or a specific setup within the residence. Contact us before your stay to discuss your requirements in detail.
How does a Select Apartments residence compare to a suite in a five-star hotel?
The fundamental difference is privacy and personal management. A hotel suite, however exceptional, is one room within a large shared operation. A Select Apartments residence is entirely private: its own entrance, its own kitchen, its own schedule and a host whose attention is not divided among other guests.
