Hi Tim, thanks so much for the ace review! We’re pleased to hear you enjoy living at The Lansdowne
Excellent location
The development is designed and operated to maximum efficiency. I like the picturesque view from my window of Edgbaston greens and beyond. Everything is designed to keep temperature within optimum through autumn and winter months. Fire systems are optimum. Entrances are functioning to optimum security. 24/7 concierge and management support makes life easy in the Lansdowne. Also good community areas … occasional activities …
What you may not like could be the limited parking areas available to residents and visitors. There are no electric car chargers in the development and no plans to install any either in the near future as we have been told.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
You are a couple of minute walk to Fiveways a small hub where bus, tram and train lines intersect to almost anywhere in Birmingham and the West Midlands. You can see Broadway from your window and can walk few minutes up Hagley Road to posh restaurants. If you are a City person, Birmingham City centre is a 10 minute walk. You are surrounded by cinemas, bowling, entertainment, Cafes and very close to most City luxuries.
What you may not like though is the noise and busy streets. Parking especially if you have visitors coming to you can be very difficult.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Nothing really. I’ve known well enough beforehand.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Management has always tried their best to get any issues solved the soonest they can. All previous issues were solved very timely and efficiently.
Excellent place to live, work and enjoy🙂
One thing which I observed is people who are living with pets. When they come to play area in the snookers room or cultural mix coming with their pet, I saw so many dogs hairs in the chair, sofa and snooker table. Because it is not good for health and tenants can avoid coming to these areas with pets.

Good:
I really enjoyed and enjoying living in this apartment.
I came to UK 1.5 yrs back as a IT employee and I lived here 2 months as a guest. I liked the apartment very much as well we have all the shops very near to this apartment Morrison, sainsbury’s, domino’s, pizzahut, hair salon, parlour, electric bike, movie theater, nearby park, play area for childern etc., everything in very near from this apartment. Then I have planned to extend here but by that time there is no 1bhk furnished flat available, then I moved to some other place. But, I keep checking the apartment availability in lansdowne site and finally I saw one flat available for rent. Immediately I booked viewing and visited the apartment, paid my initial advance amount without second thought.
Till the date I live happy in this apartment and I personally feel this apartment is very lucky for me and my husbandI really enjoying living in this apartment🙂
Bad:
I don’t have anything to say bad about this apartment but we get lots of ambulance noise in the night time and it disturb our sleep and I know we can’t do anything for that.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I personally love this apartment bcz its not a very big or very small apartment. Perfectly
desinged and compact for all ages.
Coming to communal area especially the green space, play room, gym, cultural mix. Perfect space for our free time to sit and relax.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
If we raise any complaints they are taking the action immediately and fixing the asap.
Good place to settle
I rent this apartment from Hong Kong without paying a visit. I love the apartment on my first step into the house. It is clean and spacious. Well equipped with furniture. And just like a hotel room, I got high speed Wi-Fi, water and electricity once I moved in. The simplicity design sutes my preference.
There is always friendly staffs to help in the concierge. Though I seldom use the common areas like the gym, common office, but it is really comfortable to stay in the cosy sitting room especially in the hot summer where air conditioning is provided.
It is also amazing that I don’t have to wait for delivery of my on line shopping for there are collection lockers.
Thanks to the staff who maintain the cleanness of the building and our garbage collection room is clean and never smelly.
Most important of all, this is a pet friendly apartment. My cat settled in well on his first arrival. I think if I have not yet purchased my own house, it will be really nice to have long term rentals in the Lansdowne.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
This is an ideal place for new immigrants to settle in. The most important thing for me is a super market just opposite the street. It is just a 30 minutes walk to Birmingham town center where you can go shopping in the Bullring or enjoy eating in restaurants of variety. Even if we don’t drive, it is easy to go elsewhere with the transport network nearby. We are close to the Edbaston tram station. Walking distance to railway stations or coach station if you want to go outbound. And we often use a hopper pass to go elsewhere in town. I especially love to visit the Botanical garden and Canon Hill park. And there is a beautiful reservoir near by that worth to pay a visit.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I have never dreamed that I can settle in UK so easily just because this is a very convenient place to start off.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
We did not meet much problems during our stay in recent 6 months. I only recalled once the smoke alarm system got wrong, the concierge staff helped to replace battery for us immediately.
The Lansdowne, a great place to live
Lansdowne is a great place to live. The neighbours are very friendly and the staff are extremely helpful. It has all the facilities that you could need in a modern building. The apartments are spacious and the building feels very homely due to the common spaces.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Good shops nearby and located really close to the city centre. There are great transport links nearby. It occasionally gets a bit annoying to hear ambulances or police cars going around the roundabout.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Sort your own bills (water, electric, council tax) out by yourself.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
The management have been helpful when others have parked in my space or when I have trouble with packages.
The lansdowne has been a home for me!
As my four-year journey at The Lansdowne comes to a close, I want to extend my heartfelt appreciation to the entire team, from the concierge (especially Nad and Vick) to the management. Your exceptional service and unwavering kindness have made all the difference during my stay. The team has truly been instrumental in making this place feel like a second home.
Your dedication to ensuring the comfort and security of all residents is nothing short of remarkable. It’s been a pleasure getting to know the team, and your friendly demeanor and willingness to assist with any request have left a lasting impression on me.
Leaving The Lansdowne brings mixed emotions, but I depart with a heart full of appreciation for the incredible atmosphere the team has helped create here. Thank you all for everything you’ve done, and I wish you continued success in the future.

Great modern building
The people at the Lansdowne are great – Justyna and Sam, who manage the property are fantastic, really quick and very approachable. The concierge is amazing and everyone’s really helpful and friendly too. The design of the building an the flats is really cool and ergonomic, there’s so much space for everything. The flats are really warm, which is amazing in the winter due to lower bills. It might get a bit hot during the summer though. Its fantastic to have the co working spaces, the gym, table tennis, complimentary coffee. They thought of everything.

4 Years of Luxury.
Design: Modern/neutral design of apartments, good for short term residents as its no overwhelming, and for long term residents lost of room for personal decorations. Furnished and unfurnished options are always a plus.
Facilities: Modern/industrial design of common areas. Communal kitchen, work/study space, entertainment room. Always good if you need a change of pace and don’t feel like leaving the building. Great for when guests come over as there are ways to keep them entertained.
Building Management: Cleaners are great. Concierge are always available, helpful, and super friendly.
Property Management: Maintenance portal very handy for quick fixes for the apartment. Routine checks are done and planned early in advance and communicated to the tenants.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Good: Very central. Large grocery store in walking distance, 15-20 minute walk from new street/bullring. 10-15 minute walk to Edgbaston, which is great for long walks in nature. Have not encountered any suspicious activity near the area. Bad: Can be slightly noisy when windows are open as we are right on a high traffic road, although when windows are closed, noise insulation is great.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The introduction to the apartment and building facilities we’re clear and informative.

As someone who has lived in commercial residential buildings, I can share my thoughts on various aspects, including design, facilities, building management, and property management.
Starting with design, I have been impressed by the modern and stylish architectural elements of the building. The design is sleek and contemporary, creating a visually appealing living environment. The interiors are well-planned, making efficient use of space and providing a comfortable and functional layout.

Building management has played a crucial role in ensuring a smooth and well-maintained living environment. The management team has been proactive in addressing any maintenance issues promptly. They have also implemented effective security measures, such as access control systems and surveillance cameras, to ensure the safety of residents. Overall, the building management has been efficient and responsive in addressing residents’ concerns and maintaining the overall functionality of the building.
Property management has also been commendable. The property management team takes care of day-to-day operations and ensures that everything runs smoothly. They handle administrative tasks, financial matters, and tenant communications effectively.

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Living in a commercial residential building has been a great experience for me. The first thing that stands out is the modernity of the facilities. The building itself is relatively new, so everything from the architecture to the interiors feels fresh and contemporary.
One of the perks I enjoy is having a dedicated gym room right within the building. It’s incredibly convenient to have a well-equipped fitness center just an elevator ride away. I can work out whenever it suits me, without having to worry about gym memberships or commuting to a separate location. It has definitely helped me maintain an active and healthy lifestyle.
Another advantage of living here is the presence of a concierge service. The concierge acts as a helpful resource and provides a range of services. Whether it’s receiving packages when I’m not home, maintenance requests, having a dedicated concierge adds an extra layer of convenience and security to my daily life.
Security is also a significant benefit. The building has implemented strict access control systems, surveillance cameras. This creates a sense of safety and peace of mind, knowing that there are measures in place to ensure the well-being of residents.
Lastly, living in this commercial residential building has allowed me to connect with a vibrant community of like-minded individuals.
It’s been enjoyable to interact with people from different backgrounds and forge connections within the building’s community.
Overall, the experience of living in a commercial residential building has been fantastic. The new facilities, gym room, concierge service, convenient amenities, enhanced security, and sense of community all contribute to a comfortable and enjoyable living environment.

Great place to live
The facilities are great and the building is cleaned regularly. It’s extremely safe because of finger print measures in place. The building management and concierge team are amazing, super friendly and go out of their way to help you. The layout of the apartments is great too.

A satisfying experience and highly recommended
The design, facilities, building management and property management are all extremely satisfactory. In particular, the 24-hours concierge, the swipe-and-collect parcel lockers and the proper rubbish storage. It is very safe and convenient to live here.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
There is no doubt that this is the best apartment I have ever rented, perfect for my quiet and security needs. Five minutes walk to the Morrisons, Nandos and Five guys, and ten minutes walk to Bridleyplace and bar street. Separate rubbish collection is good for the environment.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Fingerprint-unlocked access to the property for security and convenience.

Extremely efficient! They have an online report system and any problem with the flat can be solved. My blocked toilet was fixed within two hours. The concierge offered to check on the delivery when I could not find it.

Thanks for the perfect review! We’re so pleased to hear you love The Lansdowne!
The Lansdowne – a great place to live
The building is well constructed and well insulated (I haven’t had to put my heating on in the 3+ years I have been there). There is no noise within the building which can’t be said for other developments I have lived in.
The facilities for residence are very good and well thought through as they look to create a community.
The building management team are always helpful and respond when you contact them as are the concierge.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
There are lots of hand food shops and places to eat/order take out.
The local tram and train take you in to the center quickly and good value – a great location
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
nothing as I knew the area so the building fitted my needs
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Any questions or issued raised are responded to and resolved
Manager Response
Thanks for the amazing review Paul! It’s a pleasure having you here at The Lansdowne!
Convenient flat in central Birmingham
Very convenient and well located flats in central Birmingham, right in the heart of the city. Excellent facilities including a gym. Lots to do around the area. Helpful and friendly concierge. Living area feels a bit cramped. Kitchen storage limited. Bedrooms average size.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Excellent city centre location in Birmingham. Walking distance to broad street, the canals and Bullring. Morrisons just opposite.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Space a bit limited – needed to use extra storage.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Concierge always ready to help with plumbing/electricity issues – called in services pretty quickly
Manager Response
Thanks for the positive review of The Lansdowne! We really appreciate the feedback!
Living in The Lansdowne for 3 years
The Lansdowne has all I need in a apartment building security, good gym, and other amazing facilities. For a 1 bed the room is a bit small for me but totally fine, however I wish the cabinet would be bigger and doesn’t break when I put heavy clothes.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Living in five ways is the best of both worlds not crowded as the city center but has everything i need.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

Just What We Needed.
The downstairs facilities such as the lounge, study booths, and kitchen encourage a social friendly environment. I love the study booths as my wife and I are are currently studying at university. The hallways are spacious and have pleasant lighting. The gym area is pleasant but also small and can be seen by people walking past, which I do not like.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
The location is very convenient to commute to work and access all Birmingham has to offer. The building encourages a sense of unity and equality with the shared communal spaces. The staff are approachable and always seem to have time for you.
There is an overall sense of safety and security within the premises from the design and colour tones to the staff and other residents we occasionally pass in the hallways.
I use public transport and the location of the building is great for this. The local cinema, restaurants and canal street are just outside, so it’s a nice casual work to access a lovely evening out. The sounds from the streets below never penetrate the peaceful atmosphere of the building, and antisocial behaviours are only noted by the damage to the bus shelters and occasional broken bottle on the street. It’s not perfect but it’s pretty good.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The drainage hole in the bathtub is too low for my size to have a half-decent bath. I have to block this each time so the water doesn’t immediately drain as a sit down.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
They were very supportive locating parcels. They also helped us when we were moving in by isolating one of the lifts for us.
Manager Response
Thank you so much for such a detailed review! We really appreciate the honest feedback from you
Lansdowne, the cosy apartment like your own home
Lansdowne gives my first impression the word “LANDowner” while I thriving to find a new home in U.K. My experience is bizzare but interesting especially I am a foreigner living in high populated city, Hong Kong. My real adventure gallantly explores at the Lansdowne where Indiana JONES brings us here to look for the GEM, a cosy home. There is nothing of additive or deficiency in the quality of services and management. I would call it home and better than own home. Please accept my heartfelt gratitude to all staff at the Landsowne. Keep up the good work!
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Lansdowne situates the tranquil area in the centre of edgbaston village where tenants effortlessly stroll the supermarket and dining outlets in a close neighborhood. Last but not least, the public transportation can be accessible to reach near or far cities for sightseeing and working. This way of life(like) home is a bliss. I do not have compliant at all.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Location and public reviews. This somehow helps to skim all uninteresting choices.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
It is always clear and swift action! Hassle-free.

Great place to live
Facilities: spacious common room with coffee and tea provided, though the gym room I have not used ( just coz I’m lazy)
Environment: clean and tidy
concierge team: great support to the tenant, responsive and helpful ( special thanks to Sam and his team Ned and Andrei)
digital security system plus 24 hours concierge make it a safe place.
The negative thing is the fingerprint system for entrance. Maybe too sensitive and couldn’t function well.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Location: convenient to city centre with nearby bus stop, train and metro. Supermarket, post office, cinemas, bars and restaurant are within walking distance.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Cozy common room with free coffee and tea. Another place to have a break with friends.

Good place and really enjoy staying here!
The Lansdowne is very conveniently near the city centre, close to the Metro and Five ways train station, and a large Morrison’s supermarket opposite the building. The Concierge team is helpful and promptly manages property issues and helps us to find out the missing parcels.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
The location is excellent as it’s easier to access the city centre and train station. The Concierge Team is the best thing about the Lansdowne. They are all friendly and helpful. The facilities are modern and highly secure. However, the fingerprint entry system has room for improvement as sometimes it’s slightly difficult to enter and needs to try several times.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Before I move in, I don’t know that there have a trolley can borrow to help me move all of my things to the flat easily

Would recommend to friends and family
I’m very satisfied with property management as there is staff at the concierge 24/7 and the identification checks at the lift and entrance are very safe. The design of the property and interior of apartments are also aesthetically pleasing and organised.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
The location is really convenient especially having a supermarket on the opposite of the property. It also made me feel safe considering that I live alone the property has great security including fingerprints to enter the property. The management staff were also very kind and they were always there to help.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
To know that guests would need someone to pick them up even if they get to enter the property as the lift requires fingerprint check.

They have helped me report the problem of loose water pipes in the kitchen and it was fixed within a few days.
Manager Response
Thanks so much for the review! We’re pleased to hear you are enjoying your time at The Lansdowne
Great building, amazing location!
The building design is lovely and modern. The facilities are also great – the gym, co working space, game room etc. Conceirge service is good, however there are lots of changes especially for the night shifts. Property management team is very responsive and the complaint report and management system is great and efficient.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
City center and brindley place are a short walk away so plenty of shops and food places around. The new tram line has a stop right across the street and there is good bus connectivity as well. Parking is a bit of a challenge – guest parking in the building as well as on the street around.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
That there will be no guest parking (even paid) in the building
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Yes we have had a few issues in the last few months – with dish washer and electricity trips . Reporting and resolution was fast and easy
Manager Response
Thanks for the great feedback! We appreciate you taking the time to provide this valuable insight
C/P ratio is excellent.
The design of the development is simple and up to my expectation. Three lifts provide efficient going up and down. Mail boxes are kept tidy and parcel custody is safe and efficient. Car park spaces are adequate. Property management is well organized.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Morrisons nearby is very convenient for daily grocery. A number of bus stops and West Midland Metro provide good transport to town centre. The environment is quite quiet and hygiene condition is quite satisfactory.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The availability of storage space on the ground floor has eliminate my nervous of receiving 41 boxes of household belongings.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Lansdowne House Review!
Regarding facilities at the Lansdowne, I’ll start with what could be improved/developed: More packcity lockers, need instructions around the building to help delivery drivers get to parcel lockers, Sheltered garden space. Building and property management is reasonably okay. I like the new fitness sessions and mixers introduced to help residents mingle – great idea. I suggest a games night or movie night of some sort. maybe an outdoor movie night? I’d also recommend a rooftop deck but maybe that’s too far-fetched. Overall, the Lansdowne is a really nice place to live
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Bad Aspects: one supermarket within a short walking distance
Good Aspects: Good shops/restaurants, good walking distance to city centre
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
SSE energy to not be recommended as a supplier to new/current residents
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Sometimes there are WIFI issues, which is dealt with but could do with better interaction between building management and residents to keep residents informed/up-to-date esp for residents who work from home. In addition, the process of booking repairs is very easy to navigate
Manager Response
Thanks so much for the honest feedback; we will feed your event ideas on to our events team! Sorry we wouldn’t be able to do a roof-top terrace, but we’ll certainly look into the other ideas.
Best living experience in the UK
The Lansdowne is the mostly highly secured development that I have ever lived in, which makes me feel safe in here. I really love the modern and clean design, be it the lounge or inside the flat. The facilities are always kept clean, there are lots working spaces, leisure area, gym, bike storage etc. Building and property management are always up to standard, where there is concierge service and someone to help you out 24/7. The management team is the most supportive and responsible team that I have ever met. They respond to any issues, including maintenance problems very quickly and everything is very organised. What makes this place even more lovely is that the team is very friendly and treat the residents like family.
It can be at a higher price than the other development, but believe me, it totally worths it!!
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
This is a quiet and safe area to live. The Lansdowne is located very near to Morrisons (a local supermarket), which makes grocery shopping very convenient. West Midlands metro is also very close by and the closest train station just takes around 10 minutes walk. Rental bikes are also available, which makes the transport network really good. In terms of restaurants, there are cafes and Broad street is just a few minutes walk away, which is full of pubs and restaurants.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I worried about electricity bills a lot prior moving in, but there’s nothing to worry. Here uses the smart meters, equipped with water boiler timer, good energy efficiency rating appliances, which definitely helps a lot on the bills.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Yes. There were a few minor problems with the flat before I moved in and the issues were solved very quickly and professionally.
Manager Response
Thanks for the amazing review Alice! Our team works so hard so it’s great for us to be recognized by you and we are so pleased you’re enjoying the property.
Good location in good condition, great place to be my first UK home
The interior design is modern and cool. I especially love the cultural mixer and the gym where I always spend time to work and work out. I really enjoy having a cup of coffee without having to go up to my room when I am working hard in cultural mixer. So far I have no problem with the management as I can entertain myself most of the time. A minor problem that annoys me is the finger-print entry system doesn’t work smoothly occasionally.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
It’s very convenient to have a big Morrisons nearby, which has lots of daily necessities to buy. Although the Lansdowne is not too close to the city centre, but it’s still within walkable distance. It’s an optimal distance because it can get away from the noise. It’s great to have a metro station in just 1 minute walk. The city library and HSBC headquarters are also accessible by walking.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I wish I could have known some specific details such as the what type of sink strainer fits the sinks, the locations of the sockets, etc.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Before I moved in, I have raised a couple of questions to the manager, Sam, via email, and he was very responsive and patiently answered all of the questions. That made my renting very smooth and easy.

The entire building is always kept clean and hygienic

Ideal modern apartments with great facilities
The building, facilities and apartments are all designed well. The parking is ideal for a city centre, with surprisingly spacious spaces. The temporary guest parking isn’t ideal, but there are plenty of alternatives nearby. The concierges and building management has been faultless so far and are more than happy to help with any issues you might have.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
The lansdowne is in a perfect area for anything that you could want from a city centre, opposite a supermarket and entertainment right next door is amazing. Hardly any external noise apart from the the rare police/ambulance siren. We haven’t had any negative interaction with anyone so far, and all facilities are ram perfectly well
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
We didn’t realise how good of an area Fiveways was to live in, it’s pretty much in the city centre. Yet for transport it’s ideal for getting onto the motorway or travelling around the rest of the city.

The managers have been really attentive and have been able to help us out with every issue we’ve asked about.

Thanks for the great review Ryan!
A nice place to live in

A good place
The flats are spacious and well furnished and the building is quiet yet social. The flat’s design is modern and well lit but storage is limited. The property does benefit from a 24/7 concierge however they can at times be busy. During the weekends the building can be busy due to the owners renting flats as airbnbs. Outdoor space is very limited. The property has its own gym which is fairly well equipped.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
The location is central and has easy access to most places. Due to the location being so central greenery is limited.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

Best overall apartment design
Lansdowne has a specific quality in design, the hallways of apartments can be really empty and bland – but this is the only building I’ve felt like put effort into making it feel more proper. Staff members are always available to help, and post services are really useful.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Close to almost every service you would want – cinema, supermarket, fast food, cafes, park style areas etc. Recently has a tram to town now too!
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I think a good thing for some people is the higher amount of international university students here, if you were going to uni, it’ll be good to know this could have peers to interact with.

Always a response within the same day to any issues, and nice casual communication in any context

Thank you for the feedback! We have taken everything on board and will pass your feedback on to the landlord.
Overall, I enjoyed my stay at The Lansdowne.
Sometimes the packcity machines are not very smart and sometimes my parcel is delivered but I don’t receive the relevant pick-up code, so I have to ask the receptionist to take care of it for me. Sometimes it is not very smart to enter the building with your fingerprints or to use the lift with your fingerprints, and it often takes several attempts to succeed.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
The Lansdowne is very conveniently located around the area and there is a large Morrison’s supermarket right across the street where I can buy anything I want. There is also the Five ways train station nearby and lots of bus stops so I can go anywhere I want to go.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Before I moved in, I learned that the house required fingerprinting to gain access, which gave me extra peace of mind and made me feel safe.

Very happy with my standard of living
The addition of the Games Room and The Cultural Mixer has been a godsend. It’s made hosting guests a lot easier in larger comfier spaces, it would be nice if we could get Sporting events on these screens especially with the World Cup coming up, potentially adding bluetooth speakers to the Games Room too.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
The only complaint I have from living here is the noise from the neighbours in metropolitan house. There’s often times where I’ve had to ask the concierge to ask individuals who are making noise in the car park. As I start very early in the morning for work, I’ve been disturbed on numerous occasions in the middle of the night by either shouting or blasting of music. Other than that, I’m content with the building.

The traffic can be a little noisy at times but you really don’t notice it and it is only really at peak times.

Outstanding experience
Everything is just so perfect. Staff is friendly, security is perfect in this building. Just loved every bit of this place. Apartment was clean. Only missing thing is a microwave but I believe its not a big problem wouldve been great if it was available. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Parking is bit expensive and fully booked all the times.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
In my opinion there should be a room for smoking outside the building. Since you are not allowed to smoke in private property and when the weather is bad you cant go out either. So there should be a separate room for smokers only.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
So far have no issues. Whatever I asked I was responded well.
Manager Response
Thanks so much for the review! We will take all points on board.
Amzing place to live
There are a gym, study zone, the lounge. It is great for a tenant. The concierge is amazing. Everyone works hard. I don’t have to worry about safety issues or cleaness. Anj helps me a lot. It is really nice to have him in the Lansdowne. One of the best thing in The Lansdowne is having Anj with us.
