London Guest Suites has all kinds of properties in many areas of London. The area you want would depend on what you like to do but close to a tube station would probably be very important:

We've used London Serviced Apartments!

They offer a wide range of flats all over London in 3 price ranges, so, there is something for everyone! Have stayed in The Mansions(economy price group) in Earls Court.

&quot;<i>What area is most central to attractions</i>&quot;

There is no ONE area central to everything - or even most things. London is a very big place and no one address will be near more than a handful of sites.

But not to worry - since you can get anywhere from just about anywhere by tube/bus/taxi or on foot in minutes.

Good centrally located neighborhoods would include South Kensington, Victoria/Pimlico, Mayfair/Knightsbridge (generally pretty pricey), Covent Garden, and Bloomsbury/Russell Square.

There are many threads on here w/ lots of links to flats and homes for rent. Most 3 bedroomed places will accomodate up to 8 using a sofa bed in the living room. There are some 4 bedrm flats for rent - but they will be harder to find.
