In short: Marconi House on the Strand is mainly made up of larger luxury apartments, so studios there are rare. If you want a studio in the same area, look across WC2: Covent Garden, Aldwych, Holborn and the streets around the Strand have mansion-block studios, converted period buildings and serviced options. Fraser Bond can help you find a studio or compact one-bedroom flat in WC2 and secure it quickly.
| Option | What to expect |
|---|---|
| Mansion-block studio | Period buildings, often with porters |
| Converted studio | Character features, sometimes compact |
| Serviced studio | Furnished with bills included, higher cost |
| Compact 1-bed | A separate bedroom, often worth comparing with a studio |
