One of the largest teaching hospitals in the UK, Royal London Hospital is situated in the Whitechapel area of the capital. The site provides district care to a wide raft of patients from across the City and Tower Hamlets regions, while serving as the core site for countless training teams and speciality fields of medicine.
Compared to other regions of the capital, Whitechapel is surprisingly affordable. It’s popular with the working class and students looking for budget friendly lodgings, and these savings can be found when it comes to securing cheap hotels and b&b accommodation too.

This medical center can trace its origins back to 1740, although it has seen many revisions since. The centre encompasses no less than four individual sites specialising in tertiary care and NHS dental work and stands as one of the most respected in the country, with a high number of beds and increased levels of survival for many serious incidents. The Royal Air Ambulance also uses the Royal London Hospital as one of its basis, with a helipad atop its roof.
The site is situated in the Borough of Tower Hamlets, not far from Whitechapel Station. It’s also home to London’s busiest A&E for children. It’s a large Barts Health NHS Trust hospital. Other hospitals run by the Barts Health NHS Trust are The London Chest in Bethnal Green, Newham University, St Bartholomew’s in Smithfield in the City and Whipps Cross University Hospital.

Although technically in the East End of the UK capital, the London Royal is incredibly well connected to the city as a whole. The underground system provides the most convenient connections, with the Hammersmith & City and District Lines both serving nearby Whitechapel and Aldgate East stations.
Overground services are also readily available, providing quick and convenient connections for those incoming from the surrounding boroughs and outlying regions of the capital. While driving into this part of the capital can be taxing, the National Road Network provides convenient enough connections via the A11.
A steady service of buses operated by TFL also means public transport can be used to arrive, with services running throughout the day. A more limited night bus service operates for a few hours during the smaller hours.
This part of the city is a popular stop for those looking to indulge in little sightseeing once visiting friends and family at the Royal is done, with many historic sights dotted about the old cobbles of Whitechapel. This is the site of the infamous Jack the Ripper murders, with many walking tours available for those looking to learn more about this grim chapter of Victorian history. The region is also very close to the London Docklands, one of the most iconic modern corners of the capital.
