Company Introduction

Our business model has been established over the last 20 years and our key areas of specialism include the provision of accommodation to the Corporate, Healthcare, Construction and Insurance sectors.

TCHP are experts in supporting organisations who need to accommodate a large number of people into a given location. Often clients require a mix of short-term and long-term housing, dependent upon the length of stay of each visitor.

This affords TCHP the opportunity to partner with other providers of short-term accommodation in any given location, as well as to secure our own operated properties where we have full control of the management of the property and the quality of the guest experience.

We often provide our clients with a range of additional services that are tailored to our clients' specific requirements.
