Rooms to Rent in Canary Wharf, London

Canary Wharf is London's modern second financial district, built on the former West India Docks in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets. Its skyline of glass towers is home to major banks and businesses, but the area is far more than an office district. Beneath and around the skyscrapers sit large shopping malls, a wide choice of restaurants and bars, waterside promenades and green spaces such as the Crossrail Place Roof Garden and Jubilee Park. The docks themselves give the area a striking riverside setting.

Canary Wharf sits in travel Zone 2 and is exceptionally well connected. Canary Wharf Underground station is on the Jubilee line, a separate Elizabeth line station gives fast journeys west to the City, the West End and Heathrow, and the Docklands Light Railway links across the Docklands and to Stratford, Bank and Lewisham. Uber Boat by Thames Clippers river services add a scenic commuting option along the river. Few places offer such a concentration of fast, frequent transport.

The area suits professionals, particularly those working nearby, along with anyone who wants modern riverside living with shops, restaurants and transport all within a short walk. New residential districts such as Wood Wharf continue to add homes and amenities, and Greenwich, the Isle of Dogs and Stratford are close by. Dwelles lists rooms, flatshares and spare rooms across Canary Wharf, so you can find a place that fits your budget and the household you want to live in.
