The standards of care are first class,including,in particular,those of medical hygiene in my patient care from all sections of the staff,which has been hugely reassuring after my,sadly,experiencing
less stringent standards elsewhere.
At all levels from all the staff, the care of the patient and patient needs have been the priority, which is hugely supportive to those of us here for convalescence.
The food is delicious and varies day by day and week by week, which is an important part of recovery and strength building g during convalescence,of course.
The staff---- nursing,administration, cleaning and catering,are all non intrusive but observant of patient needs again, very reassuring to patients in recovery after complex medical issues.
The activities opportunities are varied and interesting as well,as do the small library of books to be borrowed to keep the mind active.

That first night I will never forget the kindness & how the night staff preserved my dignity. Slowly over a two week period I started my recovery. Unluckily i developed a chesty
cough, later on Shingles, again the night staff produced fresh lemon & honey drinks. I had good care with kindness.
The food throughout was 5star. I had guests to lunch or dinner. I was encouraged to attend a couple of organised events, also a special Autumn tea. There were guests there from Battersea Place residents Flats & it was a delight to meet & talk to them. This led to a tour of the apartments available to buy.
I am forcing myself to think about my long term care & to consider a new lifestyle. The closeness to The Park, London Theatres, The Arts, nearby shops & general in-house facilities is 1st class.
My start to recovery was at Albert Suits.
Is it my future?
Thank you

I have been staying in Albert Suites for over 3 years now. I came in because I had a fall, but because I love it so much and all the staff take great care of me, and I asked my family if I could stay. The care is excellent, and so are the activities. I do so many things like outings, cheese and meat
afternoons, and movie nights. I also like arts and crafts. My overall experience is 5 stars. Thank you to everyone. I will never leave you.

I stayed at Albert Suites for a week post-operatively and I am extremely grateful for the care and attention I received whilst there. The nurses and care assistants were highly attentive, empathetic and professional at all times. The same can be stated for all the other staff members I encountered.
I always felt safe and totally looked after throughout the duration of my stay. The facilities and services provided were of a very high standard and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Albert Suites to anyone else requiring post-operative care.
Reply from Joana Pereira, Head of Business Development at Albert Suites at Battersea PlaceThank you so much for your wonderful review!

I discovered Albert Suites in November 2024 when looking for respite care following spinal fusion surgery planned in May 25. It was by far the best place I found in London and they were very thorough at ensuring they could care for me post-surgery by arranging a meeting with the physiotherapist. This
was a fantastic opportunity to start a prehab programme with the physio at home. The physiotherapist was brilliant and made a great contribution to my recovery. I had a lovely, comfortable room where I could relax and recover and all the staff were friendly and great at caring for me. I'd like to thank everyone and the manager for organising a comfortable and stress-free stay. I'm definitely missing the food now that I'm home.
Reply from Joana Pereira, Head of Business Development at Albert Suites at Battersea PlaceThank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that your stay at Albert Suites made such a positive impact on your recovery following your spinal fusion surgery. It's great to know that our physiotherapy team and staff contributed to your comfort and care. We hope you're continuing to recover well.The Albert Suites Team

They have lovely staff and the food is ok.
Very uncomfortable single bed. A thin mattress on a wooden slatted base! Slightly improved by a mattress topper!

My room was excellent, well-appointed, clean and air-conditioned.

My room was excellent, well-appointed, clean and air-conditioned.
I found the staff very friendly and efficient, answering the bell for assistance without delay, day and night and providing analgesia as necessary
also without delay. Domestic service was good but the food, especially the evening meal was very disappointing and the method of serving it from a 'steam cabinet' where it has been languishing for some time, is not successful.
However, the level of help which I received as a bridge between hospital and home, was excellent and exactly what I needed and had hoped for.

Having been in hospital for a few days, I needed to spend a week to recover without the need to look after myself and with the benefit of some nursing facilities. Albert Suites suited my requirements very well. My room and bathroom were comfortable and clean, the air conditioning worked well over some
very hot days, the staff was all friendly and pleasant and the food was healthy and well-presented.

The staff were uniformly kind and friendly. I had a fall while resident (not the fault of anyone at the home) which resulted in an ambulance taking me to A&E. Following a week in the hospital I returned to the home but had to go back to hospital for numerous tests. I was always accompanied by a member
of staff who made it all as smooth and stress-free as possible. My daily Physiotherapy sessions definitely helped to get me back on track after my fall. The food was generally very good, healthy and plentiful. I would definitely recommend the Albert Suites.

We're truly delighted to know that our team was able to support you during your hospital visits and that the physiotherapy sessions contributed positively to your recovery.

I spent two weeks in Albert Suites at Battersea Place after a half-hip replacement. I was primarily here to recover but also to do physio and get used to walking with a stick - I needed to practice stairs because my flat is on the third floor without a lift and physio was especially sensitive to this.
The nursing care was excellent, the staff were unfailingly courteous and helpful. The food was delicious.

Another excellent stay at Albert Suites at Battersea Place which is a great place to go post-operative for recovery. Lovely, kind staff who are also very upbeat and caring, special mention to the nursing team. Having stayed here twice I'm happy I don't need to come again, but should I rock up on the

The accommodation and staff were all great. It was very helpful having on-site physiotherapy support available, so I was very pleased with the level of care I received during my stay. My only criticism relates to the catering side of things. It was very rare that I received a tray that had all the things
I had ordered for any of my meals. The carers were unable to do anything about missing or incorrect items as their role was just to bring around the trays. Having a member of the kitchen staff available when meals are served would be helpful. They would at least be in a position to address any problems. The quality of the food was good; it was just getting the order correctly filled that let things down. Seems like something that should be easy to resolve. Seems like a minor issue, but when it happens at almost every meal, it can get a bit trying!

I had a wonderful experience in November 2022 recovering from a hip operation. As a result, I have returned for a week of rest and TLC. The welcome I received on return was heartwarming and I felt I had 'come home'. I cannot praise enough the kindness, compassion and excellent nursing received. Talking
with some other residents, remarks were made regarding the relaxed, calm atmosphere and the lovely amount of laughter. Thank you, all of you.
