The Neighborhood:
Located just south of Waterloo, Elephant and Castle is one of those rare London areas which boasts a central location and excellent transport links, but has suffered a long reputation of being somewhere to avoid unless utterly necessary. That is, until now. Around £3 billion has been invested in ‘The Elephant’ over the last decade, in the form of tearing down old estates, improving the roundabouts, and building award-winning modern housing developments that are rapidly catching the eye of design-focused Londoners looking for a contemporary, aesthetically pleasing pad. Apart from improving the aesthetics, these changes have also arguably brought a vibrant new energy to the area. Formerly occupied by swathes of students, a new wave of young Londoners who might previously have chosen East or North London are now descending on Elephant and Castle, bringing a creative energy and new independent businesses with them such as those found in The Artworks hub (think yoga studios, Mauritian cafes, and vintage clothes shops). It’s rapidly becoming one of South London’s hottest places to live!
Getting Around:
On the Northern line Tube with trains to the City, Elephant & Castle is the last stop on the Bakerloo line, so there is always a seat in the morning rush hour to the West End. The train station has Thameslink services to Blackfriars, Farringdon and St Pancras.
Elephant & Castle has a large concentration of London bus routes — there are 29 services, including to King’s Cross, Liverpool Street, Shoreditch, Tottenham Court Road, Holborn and Oxford Circus.

We kindly request that you read the house rules prior to booking and respect them during your stay. Parties or events of any kind will not be tolerated.
