Islington / Angel is lively and walkable, with lots of cafés, pubs, and restaurants nearby, which makes it nice for both work and downtime. The transport links are decent (Tube, buses) so even if you stay a bit further out, getting to the centre isn’t usually too painful. Depending on your budget, you’ve got choices from luxury hotels to more modest or boutique-type stays, and even flats/apartments.
