Facility Reviews
Rating: 6 on a scale of 10. Unusual grotto effect of dark blue floor and ceiling. Cool water, reasonable lane discipline.
Probably the best pool in London for out-of-town swimmers. It's 25m all laned off, floats readily available. The pool is a dark at first and it takes time to adjust to the low lighting effect. The best times to swim are 10 AM to noon and 2 to 5 PM, when the office workers are back in their offices.
Apart from the water temperature, a lovely pool.

The pool is now brightly lit at all times and the water temperature was 83ºF (28ºC). The pool is very busy after working hours, but quite open through the day. I'd give an 8 on a scale of 10.
