Great Place to Live

The Robinson, Wembley Park, HA9

Aug 2026

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

It’s amazing to live in Quintain living, there are lot of amenities inside the building and around Wembley park as well it’s very busy and safe. The only downside is recently increased violent crimes in area which needs some strong police attention.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Resident team is very responsive , there is 24hr concierge which is always very helpful for any query.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

Nothing as such, everything has been pleasant surprise only.

Riverstone Heights, E3

Aug 2026

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

Although the area is not very central, it is developing with new businesses, both recreational and shops. Already you can take care of a lot of things within walking distance, and the surrondings are relatively safe; soon it will be possible to live a full life in the area (Restaurant density could improve, as well as cultural spots). Neighbouring families and people are friendly in general. At the same time, it is super practical to get to Central and West London given the proximity of the underground and bus stops.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Usually promptly. Haven't had bad experiences personally.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

I believe everything was disclosed or self-evident.

Bloom Nine Elms, SW11

Aug 2026

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

Nine Elms is a very convenient area to live in. There are plenty of supermarkets, cafés and restaurants nearby, and public transport is easy to access. Battersea Power Station is also within walking distance, which is great for shopping and dining. The neighbourhood feels modern and well connected, while still being comfortable for everyday living.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

The team has been very responsive whenever I’ve had questions or concerns. Abdo in particular has been extremely helpful and patient. He always follows up on my questions and makes an effort to find out the information I need, which I really appreciate.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

I would recommend checking the exact layout, orientation and specific features of your apartment before moving in, as these can vary between units. If there is anything you are unsure about, it is worth asking the Bloom team in advance. In my experience, they have been very helpful in answering questions and providing additional information.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

The local area is excellent, with great public transport connections. There are frequent bus services, and the tube station is just a couple of minutes' walk away, making it very convenient to get around. There are plenty of shops, cafés, and restaurants nearby, so everything you need is within easy reach. The neighbourhood is lively, clean, and well maintained, with several small parks and relaxing green spaces that have plenty of benches to sit and unwind. The only minor inconvenience is during events at the stadium, particularly music concerts, when the area can become quite noisy. However, this is mainly noticeable when you're outside or on the balcony. Other than that, everything has been great, and I'm very happy to be part of Quintain Living.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Building management are always approachable and readily available when needed. They are kind, considerate, and grounded in their approach, providing assistance in a supportive and professional manner. They are responsive to requests and consistently offer the necessary help, guidance, and information whenever required.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

I wasn’t aware of the discounts and exclusive offers available across Wembley Park stores, cafés, and restaurants for Quintain Living residents before I moved in. It’s really great to find out that residents can benefit from these exclusive perks. Definitely a lovely added benefit of living at Wembley Park!
