InterContinental Hotels Group has announced the opening of Crowne Plaza London - Battersea. 

The rebranded 78-room hotel is owned by Fabiano Hotels and managed by IHG.

It is located close to Clapham Junction, one of the UK’s busiest railway stations with easy connections to both the centre of London and Gatwick Airport.

Given this high volume of passengers the hotel is a great location for guests on the go.

For those travelling on business the hotel features 200m2 of meeting space, free wi-fi and ample car parking. 

What’s more, being adjacent to London Heliport, it’s also ideal for those travelling from afar for high-level meetings.

For leisure guests the area has many busy nightlife locations and is in easy reach of many of London’s top attractions.

Guests can take advantage of the Verta Spa and gym facilities followed by a relaxing drink in the Terrace bar which overlooks the River Thames. 

For dining, the Riverside Grill Restaurant serves a British grill with a twist and diners can watch the chefs in action.

Paul Watson, general manager Crowne Plaza London - Battersea said: “We’re delighted to have opened Crowne Plaza London – Battersea in this bustling hub of London.

“We look forward to welcoming guests to our hotel and helping them have a comfortable and productive stay.”

Crowne Plaza Hotels & Resorts is the second largest upscale hotel brand globally, at nearly 400 hotels in more than 60 countries worldwide, with amenities and services designed to help guests be productive when travelling for work.
