Welcome to Alma, Aldgate


These days, London developments don’t just hold the promise of a home, but a luxury lifestyle, too. That, at least, is what you’ll find at Alma, a brand new rental development in Aldgate. Here’s the rundown.

Look Inside… Alma, Aldgate’s Brand New Rental Development

Living room with brown sofas and floor-to-ceiling windows

Between the hum of the City and the buzz of East London stands Alma, a spectacular new rental development. With 159 new homes on offer – from studios to three-bedroom apartments – Alma is modelled like a private members’ club, providing a bespoke concierge service and an array of incredible amenities.

So, what can residents expect? An on-site cinema room, private dining space and a boutique fitness studio, for starters – plus communal lounges, purpose-built co-working spaces, and a sprawling rooftop terrace. They’ll also enjoy a programme of activities including wellness workshops, panel talks and networking events, as well as exclusive partnerships from local retailers, restaurants and other businesses. (A collaboration with Whitechapel Gallery even ensures complimentary access to exhibitions, invitations to events, and discounts on art books and limited-edition prints).

Winter terrace with blackchairs

All of this runs alongside a range of at-home services like housekeeping, pet care, private beauty treatments and fresh flower deliveries, plus a late-night taxi meet-and-greet scheme to escort residents to their door. It’s a five-star hotel experience, every day.

Meanwhile, the apartments themselves offer gorgeous open-plan spaces and are available both furnished and unfurnished. All boast floor-to-ceiling windows and either winter gardens or spacious balconies. So, while you might want to spend your time making the most of the superb facilities, there are plenty of reasons to stay in – plus, services and events can be booked using the dedicated Alma app. What more could you ask for?
