Lambeth occupies a prime South London location close to some of the capital’s biggest attractions, but not so close it’s packed with tourists. It stretches from the Thames’ South Bank and ends just beyond the residential areas of Streatham and Norwood. Read on to discover developments that are the best places to live in Lambeth. In addition, read reviews from residents who own or rent in Lambeth.
HomeViews reviewer verdict…
“A south-of-the-river location with lots to offer.”

In its northern pocket, you can take a stroll along the waterside. Here you will discover big-hitters like the National Theatre, the Tate Modern, and the Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre. All of which are neighboured by a good mix of pubs and bars with a front-row view of the river. Lambeth Palace is another local star, a spectacular Medieval structure and the home of the Archbishop of Canterbury. The Imperial War Museum also provides a lovely, moving day out; a fitting tribute to those affected by the past world’s conflicts.
There’s a hypnotising, cosmopolitan feel to these parts. Places like Stockwell and Kennington have a Latin flavour, their high streets packed with cutesy tapas joints and Portuguese establishments serving fresh seafood. Over in vivacious Brixton, the area’s Afro-Caribbean roots shine, with reggae bars playing exotic beats until late, and an amazing foodie scene that incorporates street stalls sizzling with specialities like jerk chicken and ackee and saltfish. Hootananny is a much-loved hostel-come-nightclub that works to showcase the area’s diversity, with events dedicated to everything from hip-hop to salsa. And we can’t talk about the area without mentioning 02 Academy Brixton, an award-winning venue for music, theatre and comedy.
Lambeth’s residential options are vast, ranging from swish riverfront apartments to elegant period townhouses. Whatever you’re after, expect easy access to London’s centre. Three tube stations – Lambeth North, Waterloo and Southwark – get residents from A to B via the Northern line.
HomeViews reviewer says…
“The location is central and very well connected within easy reach of much of Central London both on foot and via the tube. Traffic can be quite congested and slow, there is also a fair amount of noise from the streets.”
The location is perfect, near the tube and a huge Sainsbury. The environment is quite satisfying too. But there is a construction area nearby, which is loud in the daytime
Facilities are nice and well equipped. Especially the heating and cooling system, which is perfect.
Haven’t talked with the receptionists, but they looked nice.
But the room design is awful. No rooms are in square shape, which is hard to put furniture appropriately.
I wish to know the average electricity fee. It would be great if you could calculate and summarize a number for the renter.
They responded quickly and nice. Really helpful guys.
Dear Kiki,
Thank you for taking your time to leave a review! We appreciate your feedback and we’re glad you enjoyed the facilities and the team has been helpful.
While some aspects like room design and nearby construction are beyond our control, we will certainly look into providing more detail about the utility costs for our properties.
Once again thank you for sharing your feedback, please do not hesitate to reach out to our team should you need any assistance.
Great surroundings- transport links/many shops/restaurants etc… and a garden just under the building feels great. A very convenient location.
The development is in an excellent condition especially when comparing with the old apartment towers where we used to live (South Kensington). The facilities are well designed and looking forward to make more use of it.
All members of the Mylo team that we have met are friendly, helpful and very professional, this is one of the reasons why we chose Mylo alongside its pet friendliness and we were lucky enough on our move in day to bump into some treat giving for pets that happen at times.
Parking permit (underground) for move in vans was very convenient and the whole process is really smooth.
Prompt responses, always there when help is needed and office is just in the building.

The area is absolutely perfect, located close enough walk to access Battersea shopping centre and easy access by tube to get into central London
Excellent design & facilities , gym and cinema room is great, would be even better if we had a swimming pool ! 😂😂😂 overall really family friendly and good, clean facilities & excellent staff. Very pleased, would definitely reccomend to others as it’s definitely worth it
Vauxhall tube station is also a close walk and access to the Victoria line
Have had issues with the boiler before and had assistance respond straight away with a resident help number.
Hi Katy,
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We’re really glad to hear that the location works well for you, with all of the development in the Nine Elms area it’s certainly a prime location for transport links & access to nearby attractions ! It sounds like you have fully settled in and are making use of all the great amenity spaces we have to offer which is fantastic, great we could assist with the boiler so quickly, were in the office weekdays so feel free to reach out for anything else you may need, or, come and join us for a coffee !
The Area is great. Supermarkets, gym, park, pharmacy and tube. All within a 10 minute walk. Very good location
The staff is very friendly and the location is great. But for the entirety of my tenancy most of the washer dryers were broken and it’s very noisy with the football field across. I worked from home so I asked if it was quiet here and was told it was. It is very noisy in fact.
Noise. On the viewing they told me it was very quiet. My flat faces a football field that is always being used.
The initial reaction is always “you must be doing something wrong”. Eventually they realise not everything is user error and they fix it
