Relatively dull

It’s not a bad place to visit if you’re in the neighborhood with some time to pass. Some interesting nautical pictures on the walls was the only thing memorable about it.

Really great

Taking the water taxi to Greenwich and walking around the grounds was great. Seeing the Queens house was fantastic. I had no idea what it was or that it was there, but it’s an old palace with wonderful artwork throughout. And sitting on the benches...More

On the 9th September, I called the Queen’s House reception and asked if it was ok to do a photoshoot there, particularly on the stairwell as I had seen some stunning images online. The lady on the phone said the building is completely open to...More

Very nice art collection in a lovely setting

The Queen's House is an architectural gem with an interesting history. While the Great Hall and Tulip Staircase are quite unique, the art collection was the primary attraction for me. The paintings include many wonderful portraits -- not only the famous Armada Portrait of Queen...More

Not Much to See

The Queen's House is not very impressive. The architecture is decent and there are nice paintings, but otherwise, there's not much there. It's pretty small, so you don't have to spend much time there. If you're the area go ahead and check it out, but...More
