Cheval Three Quays

History

Cheval Three Quays occupies a position in the historic Thames-side district east of the City. The building's name references the three quays that once characterised this stretch of the riverfront, an area that developed as London's mercantile heart from medieval times. The property reflects the contemporary aparthotel model that has become prevalent in central London, offering extended-stay accommodation within the traditionally commercial district.

Neighbourhood

Lower Thames Street runs along the north bank of the Thames between Tower Bridge and the City, in the EC3 postcode. The location sits near the Tower of London and St Katharine Docks, with Tower Hill Underground station within walking distance. The area combines tourist attractions with financial services offices; guests tend to be business travellers, visiting professionals, and those exploring the historic riverside. Retail and dining options cluster along the riverfront and through the adjacent City streets.

The experience

As an aparthotel, the property offers self-catering residential suites rather than traditional hotel rooms, appealing to guests requiring flexible stays of days or weeks. Accommodation typically includes kitchenettes and separate living areas. The Thames-side location provides direct access to the river's pedestrian paths and proximity to both the Tower and financial district, positioning it as practical lodging for those balancing work and leisure in central London.
