    Replies to our queries via email were answered promptly, and the entire booking process was very pleasant. The apartment itself was wonderful, well appointed, well furnished and tastefully decorated

    My wife, our 12 year old daughter and myself stayed at 7A Lansdown Terrace Lane for about a week, booked with Luxury Apartments. It was a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom apartment. The service we received from Rachel was excellent. Replies to our queries via email were answered promptly, and the entire booking process was very pleasant. The apartment itself was wonderful, well appointed, well furnished and tastefully decorated. Becky was there when we arrived late at night to show us around and told us how everything worked. And we were allowed to check out late, at no charge, as the apartment was not booked for the next day. That was really very kind and helpful, as we had a late night flight and some luggage. All in, a very nice stay with Luxury Apartments.
