Robb Report Singapore and Knight Frank invited an exclusive group of readers to a private preview of The Ariel, London’s latest luxury residential development
There are many luxury properties touting panoramic views, but few can boast the sweeping vistas of London offered by The Ariel. Situated in the landmark redevelopment of the former BBC headquarters in White City, The Ariel is a 23-storey residential building and the only standalone tower within the iconic Television Centre in one of West London’s most illustrious postcodes. With Notting Hill, Holland Park, Westfield and the Imperial College a short stroll away, it is a perfect location for those who wish to immerse themselves in the cultural charms of West London.
The Ariel offers 167 units, comprising studios, one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments, and penthouses designed by award-winning architectural firm AHMM. As one might imagine, the array of private residential amenities is impressive. Take, for example, the expansive wellness suite, which includes yoga studios and treatment rooms. What stands out is the 2,500 sqm residents’ gym, which is equipped with a 17m pool and a hammam.
In August, Robb Report Singapore and Knight Frank hosted an exclusive group of readers for a private preview of The Ariel over an intimate Mediterranean dinner at Riviera in One Fullerton.
The evening commenced with wine at the restaurant’s bar and lounge, followed by a sumptuous six-course dinner against sweeping floor-to-ceiling views of the Marina Bay waterfront. As they indulged in Atlantic blue crab and New Zealand king salmon, our guests had a glimpse of what The Ariel has to offer, with an insightful presentation on the UK residential market concluding the evening’s programme.
