Clarendon’s serviced apartments in Canary Wharf
Populated with tower blocks mirroring the London sky, everything in Canary Wharf feels fresh and exciting, and the buzz of city commuters making their way to and from work each day gives it an electric atmosphere. Canary Wharf marks the focal point of London’s fast-paced financial district and is home to several of Clarendon’s long stay serviced apartments. High-rise buildings surround the pretty wharfs, each of which is dotted with fairy-lit restaurants and bars whilst the fountains and manicured lawns give it extra character. Midweek, it’s a bustling metropolis of suited professionals; come the weekend it takes on a slower pace, attracting families and friends to its abundance of shops and waterfront eateries.
Connecting to central London via the Jubilee line and east via the Docklands Light Railway, it’s far enough away to enjoy the peace of a city suburb but close enough to reach Bank and beyond in less than ten minutes.
Clarendon’s top tips for living in Canary Wharf
Staying in serviced accommodation in Canary Wharf puts residents on the doorstep of Stansted and City airports, which offer easy access to mainland Europe and the imminent opening of the Crossrail station will only add to its convenience. With a lack of major roads running through it, weekends in Canary Wharf take on a more peaceful, less corporate feel when the area is devoid of workers and instead filled with families and groups of friends keen to explore this gentle metropolis. It’s a prime spot for viewing the London Marathon each April, when thousands of runners come thundering through.
Clarendon’s guide to living in Canary Wharf
The area’s shopping centre – a mall that spreads beneath the base of several buildings – is a labyrinth of high street boutiques and designer labels, allowing residents of serviced apartments in Canary Wharf to pick up both professional and casual attire.
When you’ve indulged in enough retail therapy, stop by the Museum of London Docklands, which offers an insight into the area’s former life as a trading port and stopover for world travelling sailors. Fresh air can be found in a walk or cycle along the barge-strewn canals to Victoria Park and on rainy days the newly opened Crossrail Place Gardens provides an indoor utopia of exotic flora and fauna.
Several restaurants with outdoor seating areas allow you to make the most of the canal and skyscraper views. A longstanding favourite is the Boisdale, which boasts a meat-focused menu and an impressive selection of cigars.
