Tucked away between the historic cobbled alleyways of London’s legal district lies one of the city’s best-kept secrets: the Apex Temple Court Hotel.
A short stroll from Covent Garden, the Thames, and St. Paul’s Cathedral, this four-star stunner manages to blend timeless architecture, modern luxury, and serious boutique charm — all in one of the capital’s most atmospheric corners.
Whether you’re in town for theatre nights, shopping sprees, or just soaking up that iconic London energy, this is where you want to check in.
A Hidden Gem with Historic Glamour

Set within a beautifully restored 19th-century building, Apex Temple Court Hotel is a true hidden gem that feels more like a private members’ club than a city-center hotel.
As you step through the peaceful courtyard entrance —don’t miss the eye-catching green elephant statue by the doorway (trust us, it’s Instagram gold) — you’re instantly transported into a tranquil setting where you’re met with chic interiors, warm service, and a sense of serenity that’s surprisingly hard to find in central London.
The hotel perfectly balances contemporary style with its strong heritage charm, giving off serious understated-luxury vibes.
Rooms That Redefine Comfort

With a variety of rooms and suites to choose from, every stay feels like a stylish escape here.
The Deluxe Rooms are sleek and spacious, while the City King rooms are perfect for cozying up after a day of sightseeing or shopping in Soho.
But if you’re looking to go all out, the Grand Suite is a showstopper.
Think a grand long hallway with stained glass windows, a massive king-size bed, a separate living area, and a spa-style bathroom that’s practically begging for a bubble bath.
There’s even a Nespresso machine, fluffy robes, and luxe toiletries to make you feel right at home — if your home were a five-star London flat.
