What Can I Expect

Lift 109 - elevate your views of London! These packages for two include your Lift 109 tickets and an invitation to afternoon tea at the Royal Horseguards Hotel. 

Your Lift 109 journey begins at iconic Battersea Power Station's Turbine Hall A in The Gallery. This is where you'll discover more about the fascinating history of this Grade II listed Art Deco wonder; including original records and details on its modern-day transformation.

You will then step into The Infinity Room, an immersive and interactive spectacle of light and sound to inspire and invigorate, setting the scene for the next chapter of your Lift 109 experience.

And after climbing the 39 steps to the base, you'll take your first lift. You then cross over to the incredible glass elevator, to voyage to the very top of the 109-metre high north-west chimney. It's an amazing ride accompanied by light and sound. And the moment you emerge into the daylight…well, it is truly, truly breathtaking.

The glass lift becomes your viewing platform, 109-metres above the ground. On a clear day you'll see for miles. From Wembley Stadium and the Royal Albert Hall to the north of the Thames, to the southern views across the glass roof of the Power Station, reaching to Crystal Palace and beyond.

Soak in the sights, take selfies and point out all those landmark buildings with the help of the information panels, before the elevator descends back down on your Lift 109 return journey.

Take a moment after you leave the building to look back at this true triumph of Victorian architecture and when you admire those famous white chimneys, you can say : “I've been right to the very top!”.

And of course, your Lift 109 experience doesn't end there. There's a table for two for afternoon tea waiting for you at Royal Horseguards Hotel, just a short ride on the Northern Line underground from the Battersea Power Station stop, round to Embankment.

Buy your Lift 109 tickets for two with afternoon tea included, to reach the heights of sightseeing and enjoy tasty sweet and savoury treats too.
