What they say
Also in Wallpaper*.
The site includes a fully-equipped gym, pool (lit by circular light wells), sauna, steam rooms and cold-water therapy bucket showers.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Set directly along the Grand Union Canal towpath, the building sits five minutes from Westbourne Park station and an easy walk to Portobello Road.
The rooms
Compact studios feature tailored timber woodwork, bespoke ceramics, waterfall showers, and thoughtful kitchenettes in most layouts for flexible city stays.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The subterranean fifteen-meter heated pool sits under circular skylights that channel daylight into the water.
The spa and sauna
Bodyset therapists offer osteopathy and targeted massage, beside a cedar-slatted sauna and cold bucket showers.
Gym and studio
A gym with cardio equipment and weights adjoins the movement studio, which looks out over the pool.
Canal Restaurant & Bar
Tables spill onto the waterside terrace along the canal, serving seasonal modern European dishes and cocktails on tap.
How it began

The canal-side complex rises on the former site of Taxi House, the longtime headquarters of the London Licensed Taxi Drivers' Association.
