"Since its rise to fame as the host of much of the 2012 Olympics, Stratford has put itself on the map as a neighbourhood worth both living and playing in. Easy to access, thanks to its location beside both The Tube and Stratford International railway station, this super-modern tower is inspired by New York and its loft-style living. This 'vertical community' takes in 42 storeys, 145 hotel rooms and 248 loft apartments available for lease for anything from a week to 3 months. When it comes to shared spaces there's a fitness centre, several work and events spaces, three bars and, best of all, three rooftop gardens offering panoramic views of London's skyline. Decked out with light-coloured wood, which forms a multitude of segregated seating areas that extend into raised beds filled with lush green shrubs, these are the perfect spots to either start the day or take in the last of the sun's rays. Glass screens allow high-level views out over the city and, with three different locations to choose from, there's always something new to look at." - The MICHELIN Guide UK Editorial Team
