Parkview Homes reviews

“Once upon a time, the Royal Herbert Pavilions was the Royal Herbert Hospital, a majestic building that was built in 1865 to treat wounded military personnel. It was originally designed with the help of none other than Florence Nightingale. The hospital closed back in 1977 and was set for demolition, but a Grade II listing saved the place and, in 1995, it reopened as a collection of luxury apartments that have been highly sought-after ever since.” HomeViews Property Pro on The Royal Herbert Pavilions

We have a wonderful community spirit among residents, a public access website with our secure residents only area.

The Herbert Hospital in SE London (1865-1977) was initially built with input from Florence Nightingale for injured veterans returning from the Crimean War.
Queen Victoria visited in 1900 giving each patient a posy of flowers from her royal gardens, she was so impressed with the hospital she bestowed upon it a Royal title – The Royal Herbert Hospital.
The hospital closed in 1977 and for a time become derelict until it was purchased and developed into about 240 modern luxury apartments yet maintaining the traditional grade 2 listed exterior and renamed The Royal Herbert Pavilions.
We are so fortunate to live in such a magnificent building set in acres of beautiful landscaped gardens, with a concierge service, plus our own leisure club with residents: Bar, Gymnasium, Swimming Pool, Jacuzzi, Sauna, Steam Room, and Tennis Court.
We have a wonderful community spirit among residents, a public access website with our secure residents only area. And we have our own private residents Facebook Group.

Fresh air with a view of London

the gym and pool facilities are amazing, very well designed and well kept by pleasant staff. Although the pool and jacuzzi seem to be closed freuqently for various reasons. The corridors are also very nicely kept and designed. I never acrually got to use the cinema as it was always fully booked but it looks amazing.

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

Great sense of community at times, kept very clean. Balcony restrictions are quite stern, some parcel thieves about, and not well connected to central london. Don’t know why they run reduced carriages on DLR when its always packed.

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

i wish i would have know the crossrail would be delayed so long

If there is one thing you would change about your flat or property what would it be:

fully robbed me of my 1400 deposit, never again. charged me for issues that were there when i moved in. sure they have a partnership with a cleaning company too to get fake invoices from. I paid £300 for a clean and they charged me to have it cleaned again afterwards
