I have been staying at the Pestana when in London for a few years already. Excellent location, made even more attractive by the nearby development of the Battersea Power Station site (shops, restaurants, bars) and new transportation links (Northern line, riverboat, bus). Also, access to private parking next door. I noted that breakfast has improved since my last visit. Good variety, including hot food. Rates are going up but, overall, it still represents reasonable value for money in central London.

The need for rejuvenation is becoming more urgent. Bathrooms in particular look very dated, with dim lighting . Gym is very small, with limited equipment. Reception staff can occasionally be overwhelmed.

Really nice room and hotel with great location

The spa area was great but overused so by the evening lots of towels left strewn around with no attendant around.

Very Comfortable rooms

Noise level from trains and rooms could have been cleaner

Bed was huge, bath was amazing.

The pool was small and there was not enough loungers once a few couple’s had already claimed them. And the steamroom seems to have seen better days.

Room was very large and well equipped - bed was huge and extremely comfortable. Staff were very professional and friendly and we were able to check in early, which was very much appreciated. The location is perfect for exploring South of the River or North West London.

The pool area and sauna are very small and sadly the day we were there, there were some very loud guests who appeared to be intoxicated and were singing loudly and quite heavily petting, which made us and the other guests a little uncomfortable. It's about a 15 or 20 minute walk to the nearest tube station.

A small table and chair to sit for snacks would be nice

We stayed in a high floor suite. The room was spacious and pleasant. The bed was comfortable, the sheets and pillows super soft. The room was tidied up daily, as were towels changed. The location was fantastic, in a beautiful and clean neighborhood, close to plenty of restaurants, a market, and a mall.

The only hiccup I had during my stay was on the last day. I had given the day receptionist a few ice packs to keep in their freezer, as I would be traveling later that night with medication that needed to be kept chilled during my 10 hour flight. When I came for the ice packs at night, the night receptionist could not locate them… finally, after waking a hotel employee from daytime shift, they were able to locate it… but unfortunately the ice packs had not been kept in the freezer as per my instruction, they were kept in the fridge, thus were not frozen, just chilled… this minor inconvenience delayed me 30 minutes for my departure to the airport.

Modern and stylish hotel with good facilities and welcoming staff. We were only in London briefly for an appointment but the staff were accommodating and understanding of our requirements. The reception area and bar was pleasant. The room was spacious and stylish, with an excellent bathroom with both a shower and a bath. There was a good range of television channels in the room including sports channels. Location was excellent for the Chelsea, Kensington and Battersea neighbourhoods. 2 nice parks nearby, and good transport links for buses and trains. Spa and wellness facilities available, although we did not have time to use these.

We had no issues at all during our stay

5 minute walk from Battersea Power Station, lovely location. Staff were excellent especially bar staff.

No dislikes, just wish it maybe had better in room coffee facilities.

My new favourite hotel in this area. It was super convenient for walking to Battersea Power Station, parks and the riverside walk. Plenty of nice shops, restaurants and bars within easy reach, plus other attractions and easy access into central London via the underground. Lots to do for kids and adults alike and a very friendly, helpful team on reception and in the breakfast room. My room was particularly comfortable for the 5 nights which numbered some of the hottest days/nights in London so far this year. It ticked the 3 C's - Clean, comfortable and totally calm. I did not hear a single bath running, toilet flushing or fellow guest's early morning coughing (my main bugbears when staying in an hotel). So, I slept soundly in my huge comfy bed. Added bonus, there was a good-sized fridge in the room (not a mini bar) so I could keep a supply of cold drinks and snacks to hand.

Nothing in particular. Breakfast was fairly standard fare, but there are so many outside options that it wasn't an issue if I felt that I needed a change.
