• • The main living space is situated on the fifth floor, accessed via a modern staircase within the recognisable glass atrium at the front of the building, that also leads to the sixth floor ‘crows nest’, a fully glazed private snug with fantastic views over the West End and perfect for a bit of contemplative star gazing of an evening
  The 5th floor reception room was formerly a recording studio (no doubt with its own tales to tell) with access to two further terraces facing south and west, offering fantastic roof top views along Upper St Martins Lane and Monmouth Street respectively

• • Seven Dials has an interesting history of its own, originally developed by Thomas Neale in the early 1690’s with a view to attracting affluent residents, however for much of its early history it was full of gin shops and ne’er-do-wells, with a pub on every corner (only The Crown remains today) and a series of interconnecting tunnels between each, perfect for a quick escape
  The area became regarded as somewhat of a slum, even referenced by the great Charles Dickens himself

Nowadays, Seven Dials has more of a village feel much closer to Neale’s original vision The eclectic mix of cobbled streets, historic architecture, independent boutiques, theatres, restaurants, coffee shops and of course the iconic sundial give the area a unique atmosphere within London’s buzzing West End
