First look: construction on Art'otel London Battersea Power Station nears completion

The first interior images have been unveiled of PPHE's anticipated Art'otel London Battersea Power Station, due to open later this year.

Spanish artist and designer Jaime Hayon has been appointed to oversee the interiors for the art-inspired lifestyle hotel.

It will be the first Art'otel to open in the UK and will be located within Battersea Roof Gardens, a new building designed by Foster + Partners forming a key part of Electric Boulevard, a collection of homes, offices and a new pedestrianised high street in the power station development.

Progress on the hotel's construction is nearing completion, with the guest rooms, bar and restaurant now being fitted out.

Hayon's designs have been inspired by the Power Station's history and heritage as well as its future at the centre of a new cultural district and neighbourhood for London.

The restoration of the Power Station is nearing completion, with residents already living inside the Grade II* listed building and retailers, including Ralph Lauren, Ray-Ban, Lacoste and Calvin Klein, set to open from September.

Once open to the public, Battersea Power Station will have more than 100 shops, bars and restaurants, a luxury boutique cinema as well as events and leisure spaces, including a glass lift that will transport visitors 109m high inside one of the Power Station's chimneys.

Circus West Village, the first chapter in the regeneration of Battersea Power Station, is already home to more than 1,700 residents and its hospitality offerings including Japanese patisserie Kova, Fiume, an Italian restaurant by Francesco Mazzei, and wine bar Vagabond.
