Prince Philip, 98, travelled from the Queen’s Sandringham Estate, in Norfolk, to London’s King Edward VII Hospital on Friday morning.
Buckingham Palace said the admission was for “observation and treatment in relation to a pre-existing condition”.
Last Christmas, Prince Philip missed the royals’ traditional Christmas Day trip to church.
Last year he had a hip replacement at the same central London hospital that he is now attending.
