5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 May 2013 NEW

Stayed at a 2 bedroom apartment at 196 Bishopsgate and found it to be the perfect place for our family (2 adults and 2 young boys). It was a large clean apartment, and conveniently located across from a tube station. The only negative was that it could be a little noisy at night.

The apartment was well-appointed (mostly) and clean and in an excellent location. Front desk staff were extremely courteous and helpful. However, a misunderstanding upon booking kind of spoiled a stay I was really looking forward to. The internet booking agency I reserved through indicated that a studio apartment would accomodate up to two or even three people, but didn't mention... More

We stayed here in April. The executive single bedroom was large and very well appointed. The bedroom was separate and there was a new kitchen and a bathroom and washing machine/drier. The bed was very comfortable. The weather was very cold but the apartment was warm. The apartments are very well located opposite Liverpool St station with excellent underground and... More

We have used Saco Apartments in the past for Business Trips. This apartment is well located by Liverpool Street Station so coming in to Paddington was just a simple tube trip across town. The apartment itself had two good size bedrooms, sitting kitchen and bathroom and it was clean and smart. Broadband access was good and free!!!! Because you are... More

excellent, friendly staff; fantastic apartment - huge - with good quality furnishings. Although I booked a studio they upgraded me to a one bedroom. I think this was because I was only staying one night and my apartment was at the front of the building on the road which is unbelieveably noisy. The blinds didnt stop much light from getting...

I never expected to stay in a short-stay apartment, but it was perfect for my needs. It's almost across the street from Liverpool Street Station and very close to the financial district. I had a studio apartment for two nights, which was perfect for me as I was in the middle of a trip visiting family and friends and took... More

We only stayed for one night, but the hotel was fantastic. Very well equipped room and very friendly reception staff. A ten minute walk to Spitalfields market and Brick Lane, and Liverpool Street just across the road. The breakfast basket was also very well received. We checked out at 11am but were able to leave our cases there for a... More

Exceptionally clean and very well equipped. Perfect for business travellers as right opposite Liverpool Street Station. Bed was large and comfortable, plenty of shops, pubs and restaurants nearby, including Spitalfields Market. I would recommend it.

We arrived 90 minutes early hoping to leave our suitcases in their safe keeping and come back later, but luckily the lovely recepetion staff said our room was ready. We had a studio apartment, apart from the railing round one side of the bed which made it 'fun' for my husband to get in and out of bed if I... More

Great accommodation, very pleasent staff, superb location! Rooms are very well equiped, you will find everything you should need during your staying. The kitchen was way beyond my expectations. There is a Tesco supermarket just a dozen feet away, just perfect! The bathroom is very clean, and there is just enough space. The only thing I didn't like is lack... More
