Situated in the Battersea Power Station building, this stylish apartment has a rooftop terrace with outdoor seating and stunning views of London's skyline. For long-term stays, there's a communal swimming pool and gym, but we think this home is great even for short breaks. You can expect some outside noise, and the kitchen lacks counter space for prepping larger meals, but it's well-equipped for cooking up anything you desire. Just a five-minute walk away you'll find Battersea Park and the iconic River Thames, and public transport is easily accessible for getting around.
