LONDON’S
NEW
METROPOLIS
It’s no coincidence that so many global
businesses are based in Canary Wharf
and Docklands. London is a metropolis
with the financial, cultural and
commercial capital to truly call itself
a ‘global city’, located in an ideal
timezone for international business.

Pool
The open-air pool at Wardian is both a sumptuous
sanctuary and a serious facility for dedicated swimmers.
A miracle of contemporary pool design, it offers three
lanes of 25 metre, athletic standard swimming amidst
a sublime natural landscape. The serene space, framed
by leafy canopies, adds a haven of watery beauty to
Wardian’s already stunning blend of luxury and botany.
Design flair makes for a five star experience, with
changing rooms linked directly to the pool by both walkways
and water. It’s the best of both worlds: you can swim to
and from the pool without ever standing in the open, or
relax on the poolside without ever swimming: whatever
your mood and the season dictate. Signature beams and
columns frame this stunning centrepiece of the exclusive
facilities that are on offer to Wardian’s residents.
