Charing Cross Hospital was unusual among the historic London teaching hospitals in not having any accommodation for private patients until long after the establishment of the National Health Service and the move of the hospital in 1973 from central London to the current site in Fulham Palace Road.
There had been a recommendation in 1904 that paying patients should be accepted as one of a number of measures to deal with a financial crisis facing the hospital when it was entirely dependent upon charitable support and intended to offer free medical treatment to the very poor. However, the decision was taken not to provide accommodation for private patients.
It was not until a completely new hospital had been built in Fulham Palace Road that Charing Cross Hospital had sufficient space for a private patient facility. The new Charing Cross Hospital was opened by HM Queen Elizabeth II on 22 May 1973, and incorporated The Thames View; so called because of the spectacular views of London offered from its 15th floor location.
