Due to the current situation with COVID-19, there is currently no specific date as to when we are likely to resume our tours programme.
Once we are able to reopen the site to the public, we will offer all cancelled tours priority booking for future dates and will contact you in due course. If you have already paid a deposit or the full amount for your tour booking, you will be reimbursed in full.
Thank you for your patience and understanding at this time and we hope to welcome you to the Royal Hospital very soon.
Please contact 020 7881 5237 for further information.
The Royal Hospital Chelsea is open to visitors on a daily basis and every year we have the pleasure of opening our doors to thousands of people interested in learning about the history of the site. You too can discover the history behind this unique national institution by booking a guided walking tour of the Royal Hospital led by a resident Chelsea Pensioner. You will marvel at Sir Christopher Wren’s stunning buildings, hear the captivating stories of our inhabitants - both past and present – and learn about what life is like for today’s veterans at the Royal Hospital.
As we are first and foremost a residence, we operate slightly differently to other Heritage sites. Tours run to work with the schedule of the Royal Hospital and its 300 residents.
