Hotel Rafayel intends to promote art in all its forms and aspects.
Hotel Rafayel stives to create and  established an “intellectual renaissance in Battersea”.
Mr.  Stephen Bayley, famous design critic and writer who was formerly Chief Executive of the Design Museum. wrote that: “Any hotel in this still neglected part of London is a prospect of wonder, but an ecologically intelligent hotel with aspirations to glamour is, to put it no higher, exceptionally noteworthy…. The story of the hotel Rafayel offers real-world insights into the business of architecture today….Iqbal Latif bought the top floors in this 145-room [Falcon Wharf] development and, sensing an interesting opportunity, acquired the freehold. Latif boldly reinstated the idea of a hotel and established the ambitious rhetoric of an “intellectual renaissance in Battersea”….Battersea cannot yet be confused with St Germain. But, for once, a developer is determined to do something interesting. At a time when other developers are pondering ugly, non-viable holes in the ground, this is inspirational.”

Opening soon in Battersea. A new chic area just around the corner from famous Chelsea. Hotel Rafayel offers a great selection of  fine food, and beverage. As Food is an Art for Hotel Rafayel, we  will find some beautiful and tasty fusion plates, in the high-class, impeccable service and astonishing restaurant bar with an astonished view of the Thames.

Hotel Rafayel. The future is Now…

HOTEL RAFAYEL is a bet, a new concept of living London. A new prospective of accomodation in the newest vibrant area of London: BATTERSEA .

Classy and modern at the same time as well as luxury and comfort Hotel Rafayel offers a new way of living London.

A concept of ECOGREENHOTEL in London. Showcasing the latest technological advances in LED lightings, air-conditioning and VDA efficiencies, Hotel Rafayel aims to minimise environmental impact by reducing each guest’s carbon footprint.

According to the hotel, the average London guest notches up a colossal carbon footprint of 70kg per night; which at Rafayel will be reduced to 17kg. Rafayel’s interior design is sleek and modern, yet retains a warm charm through its bespoke furnishings.

The hotel has 65 guestrooms; 15 apartments, two restaurants with indoor and outdoor dining, bar, lounge, spa with gym and pool, meeting room, conference hall to accommodate 150, coffee shop, brasserie and a florist.

The hotel’s curved blocks afford 360° views of London from the roof terrace. Many rooms enjoy expansive views over the river and city skyline, through their floor-to-ceiling windows.

The bedrooms are available in four categories – Big (Mississippi), Bigger (Yangtze), Even Bigger (Amazon) and Biggest (Nile).

The restaurant will offer an International Cusine for the international visitors of London. The waterfront 120-cover restaurant, Banyan Riverside, with its crystal bar overlooking the river, will offer distinctive Indo-Japanese cusine fused with Chinese and Indian spices and simple Italian ingredients, all presented in a refined French style. Rafayel’s restaurants will offer both formal and casual dining, breakfast, morning brunches, and traditional afternoon tea.

The Rafayel Wa Michi Wellbeing Spa has been created in conjunction with Content (who are also supplying bathroom amenities) alongside Wellworld Spas.

The hotel’s developer Mr Ike Latif aims high at low emissions, but believes -‘‘there is no need to return to Stone Age living. Being “green” should be our overall goal, but without compromising on the luxury that the modern age offers us’’.

Says Ike Latif: “The concept of the hotel on the Capital’s new Left Bank in the culturally prosperous environ of a bustling Battersea is a key step forward in formalising the intellectual renaissance of Battersea, not unlike the discovery and patronage of the Seine’s Rive Gauche by intellectual greats like Sartre, de Beauvoir, Zola, Camus or Hemingway and Fitzgerald” we can call it an ”intellectual renaissance in Battersea”.

The hotel is due to open in December 2009.
