Citadines Islington is one of the latest aparthotels in the city from The Ascott group who also have aparthotels in South Kensington, Barbican, Trafalgar Square and Holborn.
What's unique about this property is that it was a former Grade 2 listed Royal Mail sorting office. It recently underwent a complete refurbishment and is now 108 modern air-conditioned studios and one bedroom suites all with access to on-site facilities like a guest's lounge, gym, laundrette and 24 hour reception.
We take you on a tour inside the property with our local specialists to see the design, amenities and services on offer here.
As you walk in you see the 24 hour reception and seating area.
They also have bikes and umbrellas you can borrow to explore the local neighbourhood.
Its Royal Mail heritage is evident throughout the interiors of the building's common areas as well as within the apartments themselves.
Don't miss the glitzy gold mail box at the entrance which is used for gathering guest's feedback.
