In short: If you need a London home for a few weeks or months, for a relocation, renovation, project or study, you can choose between short-let apartments and serviced apartments. Both come furnished, usually with bills included, but serviced apartments add cleaning and reception services. Book through reputable providers, read the cancellation terms and never pay by bank transfer to someone you can't verify. For stays of six months or more, a standard tenancy is often better value. Fraser Bond can help you compare options.
