The hype
Reviewers are obsessed with the rooftop views and the 'cool' factor, but some find the room layouts a bit form-over-function.
Art'otel London Battersea Power Station
$300-450 / νύχτα
Κρατήστε αυτό αν You want the most Instagrammable rooftop pool in London and don't mind being slightly removed from the historic center.
Γιατί Το Αγαπούν
- The heated rooftop infinity pool with direct views of the Battersea Power Station chimneys
- Jaime Hayon's whimsical, color-drenched interior design that feels like a Wes Anderson set
- Incredible connectivity via the new Northern Line extension right at the doorstep
Γρήγορη Ματιά: A visually stunning design hotel where the rooftop pool is the main character and the rooms are a high-tech, colorful supporting cast.
Αξιολόγηση από @Laurahtrav: I couldn't believe how close the pool is to the chimneys—it feels surreal. The transition from a sunny swim to evening cocktails at JOIA was my favorite part of the trip. If you want that perfect London skyline shot, this is the place.

Reality check
You might hear the trains if you're on a lower floor facing the tracks, and the 'Skyline View' upgrade is practically mandatory to avoid staring at a wall or railway.
- You live for design-led hotels with bold colors and art installations
- You want a hotel with a destination rooftop bar that locals actually visit
- You're attending an event at Battersea Power Station or want easy tube access
Καθαριότητα & Συντήρηση
9.1
- Housekeeping: Daily service is reliable; guests consistently praise the 'spotless' condition of rooms.
- Bathroom hygiene: Immaculate. Walk-in rainfall showers are a highlight, though some guests miss having a bathtub (only in suites).
- Maintenance: Brand new feel (opened late 2022/early 2023), so wear and tear is minimal. High-tech controls are the only common failure point.
- Linens & towels: High quality, though one guest complained about the slippers shedding.
- Odors & scents: Fresh and new; the hotel uses a signature scent that guests generally love.

Όλα όσα πραγματικά θέλεις να ξέρεις πριν κάνεις κράτηση.
Is the pool open to everyone?
It's primarily for guests, but limited public access is sometimes available via booked wellness classes or events. Guests should book slots via the app.
Is it noisy?
It can be. The hotel is sandwiched between the Power Station and a major railway line. Ask for a 'Power Station view' to minimize train noise.

Expect to pay around £28-30 per person for the a la carte breakfast at TOZI Grand Cafe.
Is it pet friendly?
Yes, dogs are welcome for a fee of £25 per night, which includes a bed and bowl.

No on-site parking. You'll need to use the nearby Circus West Village car park (~£30/24h).
Can I check in early?
Early check-in is available for a fee (approx. £15-50 depending on timing), subject to availability.
Εσωτερικές Συμβουλές
- ✨
The 'Control Room B' bar inside the Power Station is a cool mid-century spot for a drink if the hotel rooftop is full.
- ✨
You can take the Uber Boat (Thames Clipper) from Battersea Power Station pier for a scenic commute into central London instead of the tube.
- ✨
Request a room away from the elevators; the 'fun' corridor design can amplify hallway chatter.
5 πράγματα που πρέπει να ξέρετε πριν φύγετε
💡The 'slippers' provided have been reviewed as low quality (disintegrating flip flops).
💡The high-tech room controls for lights and curtains can be finicky and confusing at 2 AM.
💡You are right next to the Battersea Dogs & Cats Home—you might hear barking if you're on a lower floor facing that way.
💡The rooftop pool is actually quite small—it's an 'infinity dipper' not a swimming pool.
💡The lifts can be slow during peak checkout times due to the rooftop bar traffic.
