London’s most iconic rooftop pool: art’otel Battersea
art’otel has already cemented itself as the place to see and be seen this summer, offering jaw-dropping views of the iconic Power Station chimneys and 360-degree views of the capital from the 16th floor. Guests can swim right up to the edge and sit face to face with this beautifully restored London landmark, watch the sun rise over the city, or simply relax on a poolside lounger and soak up the sun.
The perfect backdrop for a sundowner, guests can enjoy poolside cocktails from JOIA Rooftop: a stylish new 74-cover bar and terrace located beside the pool deck. Highlights including the Aventurina, a gin-based cocktail with mint, cucumber and lime; the Pimenta, made with tequila, agave and chilli; plus chilled pitchers of vibrant sangria and Iberian Spritz for sharing.
JOIA Rooftop will also offer an al fresco menu of snacks, petiscos and tapas from two-Michelin starred Portuguese chef Henrique Sá Pessoa. As well as favourites from JOIA restaurant on the floor below – such as Octopus salad with red pepper, potato and smoked paprika and tuna tartare with avocado and sea lettuce – the menu will include dishes exclusive to the rooftop, including a prego steak sandwich.
