"A single Grade II–listed, seven-bedroom exclusive-use townhouse in Marylebone with strong Jane Austen connections (Henry Austen lived here and Jane visited). The narrow five-floor house features one staircase, a cozy front lounge, a state-of-the-art kitchen and dining room, and a snug for reading or late-night conversation; rooms are Georgian in style and named for Austen family members (notably the romantic pink-themed Eliza and the chartreuse-accented James). Interiors showcase antiques and Jane Austen first editions, and an on-site manager named Ann delivers warm, highly attentive service that makes the house feel like a private hotel." - Annie Fitzsimmons
