Clarendon’s serviced apartments in London Bridge
A curious mix of city workers and tourists, Clarendon’s serviced apartments in London Bridge cater well to both work and play. Named for the bridge that crosses from Borough to the City, this Zone 1 area carries on all the way up to Tower Bridge, taking in many of the most recognisable buildings along the Thames’ southern bank. The city’s oldest station, London Bridge, was recently given a much-needed makeover, putting it firmly on the map as one of London’s most well-connected areas.
Clarendon’s top tips for living in London Bridge
Those staying in corporate accommodation in London Bridge should make the most of its proximity to the up-and-coming Bermondsey; an easy-going suburb offering plenty of urban cafes and buzzing co-working spaces. Served by the Northern and Jubilee lines, commuters can get to Bank in three minutes and Canary Wharf in thirteen. Known for its impressive culinary credentials, it’s also a perfect area for food lovers
Clarendon’s guide to living in London Bridge
London Bridge’s skyline is clearly punctuated by The Shard; an eighty seven floor skyscraper that juts upwards in a triangular shape. Head up to the observation deck for views across London all the way out to Kent or book into one of the fine dining restaurants in residence to enjoy the views over a delicious meal. With Tower Bridge clearly visible to the right and Shakespeare’s Globe just to the left, keen site spotters will also have plenty to look out for whilst walking the river path. The Southbank, populated by bars, restaurants, the British Film Institute and National Theatre, is just a short stroll away as well.
Though there are plenty of great restaurants around, one of the greatest perks of living in corporate serviced apartments in London Bridge is their proximity to the world-famous Borough Market – a partially covered haven tucked beneath the station’s tracks with stall after stall of artisan produce. Whether its ingredients for a recipe or a bite to eat you’re after, this market has it all and is a spot that Londoners love to return to repeatedly.
Though the Bridge is named for the city, it isn’t actually the oldest in the capital. Its current incarnation is fairly modern in structure and only opened to traffic in 1973, though a bridge structure has straddled the river here since the Roman era. Nearby Hays Galleria offers a small selection of high street stores where clothing, toiletries and gifts can all be found.
Clarendon’s verdict on living in London Bridge
There are plenty of long stay serviced apartments in London Bridge, making it a favourite for long term stays and relocations. Its own nucleus of culture, residents can enjoy a village feel here, whilst also having access to many of the city’s most exciting spots via the newly rejuvenated station or by walking along the river.
