A guide to living in Wembley

Although concierge staff are generally very helpful and friendly, I've found that the main landlord (Quintain) to be quite the opposite. I've included some of my frustrations below: - Their staff gained unauthorised access into our flat, and when we realised the individual ran away (this has happened to other residents too). When we questioned them on this, we were constantly gaslit. To this day, I've not had an actual explanation of how and why this happened, or what mitigations are in place to ensure this doesn't happen again. - The quality of security in the area (provided by Wembley Park estates which are closely enough linked with Quintain to reference them in this review) is terrible. There is complete disregard for resident safety; I've witnessed first hand (as have many other local residents) security individuals providing access to absolutely anyone into buildings (they're usually looking down on their phones anyway), and when on patrol actively turning around when seeing any sign of anything which would require their intervention. I do not feel safe with them in charge of security. - Constant false promises and lack of accountability. We were told there would be an gym open when we moved it; it was only opened 2 years into our residency. The gym has little sound proofing (it's also tiny and windowless); you'll hear weights being dropped if you're above the gym on any of the first 7/8 floors. Separately, we had residents above us smoking and dropping ash into our balcony for over 1 year; no action was taken to resolve this and it only stopped when they finally moved out. - Quintain Living offer short term lets within their buildings and allow residents to do the same. This means that literally anyone can book to live here for even a night. Most are fine, but expect the odd chaotic flat party/messy social areas the night after (to their credit, the maintaince team do do a good job of looking after the social areas and cleaning up after messy residents). - You have zero control over utility bill rates. You cannot use a different provider or negotiate rates. Quintain Living will tell you that the rates charged are very competitive, but be aware that the domestic price cap doesn't apply to you so can be charged more than this (we certainly have been in the past). Also be aware that a commercial 24/7 gym with DJ nights will be opening on the ground floor of the Madison building. Residents will not have access to this (unless you join the gym at the standard price) but rest assured if sound proofing is inadequate (which it seems to be given I've had numerous migraines from the constant drilling) then you will be kept awake by it. As I say, junior staff at Quintain are generally really good, but from my experience it's my opinion that Quintain Living prioritise profits over everything else. Bear that in mind if deciding to move here.

I've had a very positive experience living at Dandi Wembley. The building has a modern, welcoming feel, and I appreciate the design, facilities and the atmosphere that makes it feel like home. A special thank you to Mohammed, Faiza, Nishaad, Ozwald, Piotr, George, Aleem and Joseph. Their friendly, approachable attitude makes a real difference to the experience of living here. It is lovely to have a team who help create such a welcoming environment, and I would happily recommend Dandi Wembley to anyone considering making it their home.

Like a little heaven. Sky garden + Modern interior+working space. Lots of events coordinated. Proximity to Wembley Park station and train. Less than 10 mins. It’s a hidden Jem in London, so I highly recommend. Worths a rent. All kind of stores, gym, in less than 5mins distance.

The development features a modern design with well-maintained communal facilities that make daily living comfortable. However, there is noticeable room for improvement regarding the property management team, as response times for routine maintenance requests can be quite slow. Communication from building management about ongoing repairs or policy changes is often delayed, which can be frustrating. Overall, the physical building and its layout are excellent, but the administrative and management support needs to be streamlined to match the quality of the property.
