A little history:
Between 1147 and 1825, St Katharine’s served as a first stop for many arriving into London and became home to several thousand people. The religious community living around the chapel provided support for the old and sick and formed a centre surrounded by everything that made up a sustainable medieval community, such as mills, markets, breweries, schools and orchards. Following the end of the Second World War, St. Katharine’s moved to its current site in Limehouse, where under the mastership of Father Groser it played an important role in the community for many years.

Limehouse is at the gateway between the River Thames and over 2,000 miles of navigable canals and rivers. The Limehouse Cut is the oldest canal in London and a marina and docking facility for narrowboats, yachts and ocean-going cruise boats. Shops and cafes are in the area, which is quite scenic and ideal for exploring on foot.

Royal Foundation of St Katharine

London E14 8DS

It is difficult to imagine a more peaceful urban setting, for a short stay in London, than the Royal Foundation of St Katharine, a charitable foundation which sits within, yet apart from, the heart of London’s East End. St Katharine’s has a long history of hospitality and guests are invited to explore this hidden oasis and relax in a peaceful and secure environment.

Handily situated to the City and Canary Wharf, and with fresh and comfortable, en-suite guestrooms, a spacious lounge, conservatory and library, travellers and members of the public are welcome to enjoy the facilities. A quiet garden and a serene chapel are available to all guests, and provide a welcome contrast to the hustle and bustle of a busy day in the capital. The recently opened St Katharine's Precinct lies adjacent to the main site and boasts the only Yurt Cafe in London.

The estate is a few minutes walk from the River Thames, in the east of London and even closer to the Limehouse DLR station. Complimentary Wi-Fi is provided. A continental breakfast buffet is served daily and on-site car parking is available.

Queen Elizabeth is Patron of the Royal Foundation of St Katharine and planted a memorial Queen Elizabeth Rose during her last visit to the property.
