Kid-friendly holiday rentals in East London

We had a wonderful stay with Karen and Nick. Everything was exactly as shown in the photos and described on Airbnb. They were incredibly friendly and empathetic hosts. We slept like we were in the clouds – the bed was soft and cosy. The bathroom was spacious and modern, with fresh towels provided every other day. Our room was cleaned regularly, with fresh water, coffee, and milk replenished daily. We can wholeheartedly recommend Karen and Nick’s accommodation to anyone. Hope to see you again soon!

Monica is a wonderful host, very welcoming and always ready to help and make the most of our journey. The house is as in the description, well equipped and quiet.

Had an amazing time at Neil’s. He’s super nice, kind and helpful, the place is exactly as described and in a very nice and quiet area. Felt right at home as soon as I got in and had the pleasure to spend some time with his adorable cat Bentley, super cute, super cuddly! I couldn’t have asked for a better place to spend my days in London. I highly recommend it if you’re planning your stay in London and I will definitely be back next time I’m in the city! Thanks again Neil!

I would certainly endorse all the positive comments from previous reviews that add up to Simona being rated a super host. Very happy with my week's stay. Simona is a very chatty, naturally welcoming host whose company I very much enjoyed. The room I had was small but all that I needed for somewhere to sleep after spending most of the time out-and-about in London, while Simona's house is a well-lived in, homely space in a great location. It might come with the odd creak and groan from the floorboards and plumbing, but, hey, welcome to 'Wimpy/Barrett Britain!' Ultimately, it's the human touches that make travelling so compelling and I look forward to sharing a plate of pasta with Simona when next in Wapping. That's dependant on availability of course - there's good reason why Simona's is usually booked-up far in advance. Glad for having had this chance for an introduction. Cheers!

Mr Majid was great host. I will highly recommend the house and will use again.

I had a lovely stay! It was perfect for my visit, which was a concert at Tottenham Stadium. The room was nice and clean and had everything I needed. Very close to underground and overground stations. Neighbourhood was quiet and felt safe. The host was accommodating and communication was excellent. Highly recommended!

Daniel’s place was the perfect location to get in and out of London each day and lovely and quiet at night. If you don’t want to pay central London accommodation rates, I recommend staying here. Very clean and comfortable. Thanks for the stay Daniel.

Excellent place to stay! Mine was just a short stay but the place and Hanna are great! Absolutely book if you need a place in London!

We had a great time staying at Jessica’s place. It was plenty of space for two people for seven days. It was clean, and all of the furniture was comfortable. We loved the neighborhood, it’s located near the Olympic park and there are a lot of walking trails and delicious bakeries/coffee shops. If you are visiting London, there are definitely places that are closer to the tourist attractions but we enjoyed returning back to the apartment which was quiet and peaceful. The train station is very close as is a shopping center, with several different grocery stores. Jessica was very responsive and a great host.

My stay at Shanita's private apartment was absolutely fantastic! From the moment I walked in, I was so impressed by how incredibly neat and clean the entire place was – truly spotless! It made for such a comfortable and welcoming arrival. The location is also a huge plus. I found it incredibly accessible to the city center, with both bus and train options just a short walk away, making it super convenient to explore. A special shout-out and massive thank you to Shanita for stocking up the kitchen with essentials, snacks, and drinking water. I arrived really late in the evening, and seeing those thoughtful provisions was such a relief and made a huge difference after a long journey. It's these small but significant details that truly elevate a stay. I highly recommend Shanita's apartment to anyone looking for a clean, convenient, and wonderfully hospitable place to stay. I'd definitely book again!

We had an amazing time at Paula’s place. The moment you walk in feels like home. Gave clear instructions on how to navigate her apartment and building. Very responsive. The area has some really good places to eat and the fresh food market down the street is amazing. Would def stay here again and would recommend for anyone else!! 5 stars

We enjoyed the apartment thoroughly, very central location. Easy access to supermarkets and convenience stores. Stations were a stone throw away. Very well laid out and very private.

Location was great, only 5mins walk to Shadwell Station and about 10mins walk to Whitechapel Station where there are a lot of halal restaurants nearby. The apartment was really clean and spacious as well with all the amenities listed. We really appreciated that the apartment has a washer and dryer too! Stephen was also a great host, really responsive and gave us detailed instructions regarding check in and directions to the house. Thank you so much Stephen! We really enjoyed our time at your apartment ✌🏻

The location is great! Bus stop and tube station at walking distance. Tower Bridge and other attractions are also a short walk away. The studio had everything one would need for the stay.

We really enjoyed our stay in this nice and spacious flat. It’s in a quiet and safe area, close to Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park – great for a walk or a jog. Just a 10-minute walk to Westfield shopping centre with lots of food options. There’s also a small convenience store just around the corner, which was super handy. Good transport links nearby – both train and underground stations are about 15 minutes away on foot. The flat was easy to find and check-in was simple. Michael was quick to reply and helpful whenever we had questions. Would definitely stay here again!

Great hosts- thank you again!

Nice and cosy apartment and well equipped :) The room is not that big but perfect for two people, even for a longer stay, and it has a nice view over the gardens, with many cats strolling around!! The area is perfect for a longer stay as there are many nice restaurants and cafes with a lovely park nearby. Sometimes we had to travel a little bit to do some sightseeing but lots of buses/underground/overground options within 15min walk! Also Åsa is very kind, even though we didn’t meet (the room is quite private even when the entrance is shared 🙂). Really recommended!!

I stayed in this Airbnb with my friend and we loved it! If you are going to be in London a lot, be aware that it takes about 25-30 minutes to get into the city, but it is close to public transportation. Our hosts were so willing to work with us when we had any issues or questions, and the services provided at the Airbnb like luggage storage lockers and laundry definitely made it worth the price. For the quality, the amazing space, and the service, it is definitely a great deal! I highly recommend staying here.

Ana’s place was exceptional, it was homely, clean, and had all the amenities one would need for a comfortable stay. The location is close to the train station and there were a few convenience stores nearby. Ana was kind, informative and very responsive. Would stay again Tino :)

This place was exceptional! I stayed for just over a week and it was perfect. The apartment came with everything you would need and was spotless. The building is well designed and felt very safe. The location is great, very central, close to shops, restaurants and the tube. Darran was incredibly helpful, very responsive, and proactive. Checking in and out was super easy. I highly recommend this place, and would definitely look to stay again!

One of the best hosts on Airbnb. Helpful in every situation, apartment in a perfect location, as in the pictures. I HIGHLY recommend and I will come back.

Priya, Shaun and Nanouck were wonderful, we felt like in our own home, their place is gorgeous with everything you need for a short or long term stay, no disappointed in any manner, the bus stop and the metro station to get to all the highlights on London within minutes walking distance. They are super friendly and give you great tips to visit the non touristic points of London so you can feel like a local, definitely will recommend them to other guests and we will love to come back someday to Shaun and Priya's place.

Emmanuel was such a great host. The communication went very smoothly. He was very responsive, kind, flexible and easygoing. The location was great as it was very close to public transportation. Based on the description, there were no surprises. I can only recommend Emmanuel’s place.

A quiet space in a busy neighborhood. Spacious interior. Bedroom quite large but bed orientation made movement around it challenging. Kitchen very well equipped. I struggled to get the live television working - instructions hard to find.
