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

Very good area, close to stations and shops. Amazing bars near by and restaurants as well as Battersea Power Station which has all shops needed for shopping.

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

Very prompt and efficient. No major issues in the first place but very thoughtful

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

I wish I had known how friendly and helpful the building staff are, especially the concierge team. They really go out of their way to make things easier, whether it’s receiving parcels or helping with maintenance. Also, the communal areas are kept really clean and are great for studying or relaxing.

Manager response

Thank you for the lovely review - really it well received and impacts the teams in their hard work. Look forward to seeing you around the building in the future.

Aesthetics - great. Management - bad.

Bloom Nine Elms, SW11

Jul 2025

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

Great area in general. Tons of shops and restaurants. Right on the river. Not really any parking, as expected but safe and clean. Lots of building and traffic noise as usual.

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

Maintenance is good. Any other questions are very frustrating. Staff have been extremely rude on occasion. Rarely reply to emails and when they do they are incorrect on things like finance.

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

Probably wouldn’t recommend. Nice to have a pool but way over priced for the service.

Manager response

Modern Living with Everything on Your Doorstep

Ibrahim (Tenant)

Verified Resident

Bloom Nine Elms, SW11

Jun 2025

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

I’ve been living here for over a year now and it’s honestly been a great experience. The transport links are excellent — with easy access to tube, rail, and bus connections, and Battersea Power Station is just a short walk away, offering even more shopping and dining options. Within the building itself, there’s a great Asian supermarket, the Atis salad bar (perfect for healthy lunches), and a beauty shop opening soon, which adds even more convenience. The area feels safe and lively with a nice mix of residents and local amenities. It’s a fantastic place to call home.

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

Excellent always sort the problem out within a day or two. Sometimes within a couple of hours

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

One thing I’d recommend is joining the residents’ WhatsApp group as soon as you move in. It’s a really friendly community, and the group helps you stay up to date with everything from building updates to local tips and social events.

Manager response

Hi Ibrahim, Thank you for taking the time to leave such a lovely comment and review - we truly appreciate it and it goes such a long way with the team. We are really glad you are enjoying your time here at Bloom! Look forward to meeting in the future at one of our events.
