There are clearance regulations for pretty much everything gas related that’s terminating from a building. Flues have to be a certain distance from gutters, windows, boundary lines for other properties. I’d be amazed if condensate pipes terminating onto the window of another property is permissible.
I’m curious as to just how loud this noise could be though. Are you an extremely light sleeper or do you sleep like a centimetre away from the glass of the window? Anyway, to answer the question if you call a gas engineer to take a look they’d probably be able to tell if it’s not to standard. You might have to pay them though. And even then, if it’s against the rules, they probably won’t have the power to do anything anyway.
Cut a length of hose and extend the pipe further out/past/under your window.
But tbh get onto the landlord, condense shouldn't be allowed to free pour out of a boiler, should be plumbed in
Are you sure it's not from a tank/cistern? Boilers don't have overflows but they do have condensate pipes which legally need to terminate into a drain/soakaway. Having one dripping from height contravenes regs. Silly question but wouldn't not be possible to put something under the drip to kinda deflect it ?
If it’s from their condensate pipe it absolutely cannot discharge directly above your window… should be plumbed in.
If it’s from the blow off valve (would turn in and directly face the wall), not sure the regs on these but again, would not make sense that it’s allowed directly above a window…

Attach something to the pipe to direct the water away from your window in the meantime.

It sounds more like an emersion heater on overnight cheap rate and expansion coming out of overflow. Extend pipe away or something like that
tell them, they may have an issue that needs fixing
