In short: London's high-rise rental hubs include Canary Wharf, Nine Elms and Vauxhall, Stratford, Greenwich Peninsula, Wembley Park and the South Bank. Towers often offer concierge, gyms, residents' lounges and spectacular views. Ask about lifts, building safety information and what's included in the rent.
