Park Hyatt's New Riverside Residences in London

Creating vibrant new riverside neighbourhoods from the rubble of the past is in London’s DNA. While Paris is achingly beautiful, its centre has remained mostly untouched since the 19th century. But London - even what constitutes its core – thrillingly continues to shift and change. 

Case in point? The last decade has seen an entirely new district rise at Nine Elms in London’s SW8. What was once an unloved industrial wasteland along the southern bank of the River Thames opposite Chelsea and Pimlico, is now home to two of the tallest residential towers in Europe, and an entire neighbourhood dedicated to riverside apartment living and socialising in London.

The two gleaming glass and limestone obelisks that make up One Nine Elms one will house the 42 storey Park Hyatt London River Thames Residences and Park Hyatt Hotel. The other, the River Park Tower, rises to 57 storeys and will house 334 apartments. When One Nine Elms opens in early 2024, it will set the highest bar in the city for the 21st-century living.

Visible from the Palace of Westminster, One Nine Elms is already a bold focal point. It has been developed over the last decade by R&F Properties UK, and designed by Kohn Pederson Fox (KPF) Architects. If, like us, you’re partial to details, River Park Tower is 199.4 meters high, and Park Hyatt London River Thames Residences tower is 160.1 meters high, with 19 levels of Park Hyatt Hotel space and, above it, a development of 103 stunning Park Hyatt branded apartments, featuring one, two, and three bedroom homes and penthouses.

The Park Hyatt London River Thames Residences tower contains 162,011 square foot of Park Hyatt Hotel space and 164,367 square foot of Park Hyatt branded residences space. River Park Tower contains 557,483 square foot of residential apartments.

The beautifully designed homes within the Park Hyatt London River Thames Residences have been delivered by top design and interior architecture firms including  1508 London, Super Potato, landscapers LDA Design, with interior design schemes by Angel O’Donnell. Each apartment features floor-to-ceiling windows that celebrate the views of London in every direction, from Westminster to Battersea and beyond.

Park Hyatt’s is the first development in London where private branded apartments sit alongside a 5-star Park Hyatt Hotel.

Residents of One Nine Elms Park Hyatt London River Thames Residences have access to all the incredible hotel facilities 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including a spectacular pool, gym, spa treatment rooms, and a party-friendly ballroom as well as a butler, room and childcare services.

"At One Nine Elms, every floor-to-ceiling window frames a breathtaking view, ensuring that residents are continually treated to unparalleled vistas of London's magnificent cityscape,” says R&F Chairman Mr Zhi Xiong Guan. 

“From inside the apartments, to the north, you can see across the winding River Thames to Westminster. Further east, you can see the striking form of the Shard, and to the south lies the Nine Elms neighbourhood, including the US Embassy building. Further west, you see Battersea Power Station, and the Chelsea Bridge and Albert Bridge."

Thanks to a stunning glass bridge connecting the Park Hyatt to the residences in the second tower, this development will, when it opens, provide an instant community to modern minded individuals.

Beyond its walls is the newly created 4.5 hectare Linear Park, a sculpted landscape which snakes along to Battersea Power Station from Vauxhall Bridge enveloping One Nine Elms Park Hyatt London River Thames Residences on its way. The opening of the commercial units at the bottom of the towers next year will showcase the best of the world’s food, fashion, art and design. 

Getting around London and the world is easy from Park Hyatt London River Thames Residences. Six minutes-walk away, are not one but two new Zone 1 London Underground stations, Vauxhall on the Victoria Line, and the recently opened Nine Elms, which forms part of the Northern Line extension to nearby Battersea, which opened in September 2021.

Meanwhile, you can Uber along the water using the Thames River Bus which launches from St George’s Pier, Vauxhall - and can whisk residents to Embankment, Blackfriars and along to Canary Wharf in less than 45 minutes. Sloane Square is a 12-minute drive away, and a visit to Tate Britain is a 14-minute stroll across the Vauxhall Bridge. For international connections, Gatwick Airport can be reach in 40 minutes, and Heathrow in an hour.

Take a stroll from the Park Hyatt London River Thames Residences, towards the grand reinvention of Battersea Power Station, and you’ll pass new US Embassy and Embassy Gardens with its luxury boutiques and cafes. With the majestic Thames at its base, whether its enjoying nature or shopping, all can be enjoyed from your doorstep from one of London’s most notable new towers.
