Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

- Daniela L1 contributionThe museum is very big and took us about two hours to explore. It was quite crowded, so make sure to prebook tickets to avoid long queues!
The building feels like a large labyrinth, which makes it difficult to navigate and see all the exhibitions or sections properly. But worth it!Written 30 November 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Joe JBristol, UK15 contributionsGreat to see a natural history museum that links the modern and the past together seemingly. It was refreshing to see such a large amount of interactive projects that people can get involved with and the freely available information.
It was a surprise to need to que wth out a pass but that is understandable on a weekend that was so busy, it didn't take too long to access and there was a stunning garden to enjoy whilst waiting.
My only gripe is I understand with British museums they are free to enter and do require charitable donations, but the sheer amount of electronic donation machines was overwhelming and would be more productive spread about in other locations.Written 1 December 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

No queue to get in but once we left, the queue was extremely busy so I think paying £10.50 to get in before everyone else is also well worth it. The only downside is the outside area didn’t open until 11am and we got there at 9am.Written 27 November 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- James GMill Valley, CA287 contributionsThe history of Westminster Abbey is the history of England itself--and a review really can't be pinched into a paragraph. The abbey was consecrated in December 1065 in fulfillment of a vow by Edward the Confessor. Ten months later, the English were defeated by William the Conqueror, whose great-grandson Henry III began rebuilding the old Norman abbey in 1245. This is the Gothic structure that stands today, although in the undercroft several remnants of the older building survive: the Pyx Chamber and an oak door, reputedly the most ancient in England. The new abbey included a Chapter House, later decorated with scenes of the Apocalypse and Last Judgment. But there are many other jewels in this crown: the tomb of Edward the Confessor behind the High Altar (only to be viewed on a verger-guided tour); that of Queen Elizabeth I and Mary, Queen of Scots; those of the ennobled; the fan-vaulted roof of The Lady Chapel; the poppy-bordered grave of the Unknown Warrior; Poets’ Corner, including Chaucer’s tomb; the cloister and garden; the Coronation Chair (inconsiderately carved with the initials of 18th-century schoolboys), in which the monarchs of the realm have sat for their investiture ever since the coronation of Edward II in 1308. High in the abbey’s triforium, The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Galleries (£5) display the funeral shield of Henry V and the Liber Regalis, a 14th-century illuminated manuscript that established the procedure for a coronation—which, in its broader strokes, still is followed. Despite these treasures and the beautiful view along the length of the nave, photography is prohibited—the fear being that, if a fumbled camera were to drop to the abbey floor more than fifty feet below, there would be an insurmountable insurance problem. Finally, evensong is at 5 pm, which allows the visitor actually to sit in the stalls behind the choir. But get in line at least 45 minutes early—and notice the tomb of Isaac Newton in front of the choir screen as you exit.Written 27 November 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Review-er-er_erHouston, TX240 contributionsThis place was absolutely amazing! One of the best museums I have ever been to. There is a bit of everything here and there's sure to be something for everyone in your group to enjoy. I was there from open to close and still did not see everything.
There are cloak rooms so no need to carry around anything. I also loved that you could get there via underground corridor once you got off the subway at that stop. Great directionals make getting there a breeze.Written 30 November 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

I would allow for three and a half hours for a visit, so you can visit the cafe, and take time to read the large amounts of information in the Churchill Museum.
The attraction is the former command basement that Churchill and the Chiefs of Staff used in the run up to and during World War Two
You walk along a clearly defined route looking at the map rooms, communications rooms, private bedrooms, conference rooms etc.
They are exactly as they were during the war, with a few wax models of soldiers added in.
The highlights are Churchill's bedroom and the Map Room.
In the middle of the site is a large detailed room called "The Churchill Museum".
About his life, politics, personal life and humour.
There is so much information and so many artefacts in there that it needs an hour and a half on it's own to do it justice!
You will want to take many photos, though I recommend the compact "Secrets of Churchills War Rooms" book which is an expanded guide book at an affordable price, stocked with photos and relevant information.
There is a very well stocked gift shop.
Visitors get given an audio guide which is essential, as the site is large with so much to see and learn.Written 26 November 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

It provides a mixture of everything for everyone except those who like quieter places. It is loud, crowded and busy. It provides food stalls, quirky shops, anime-themed shops, gaming, bars and more. The weekends are obviously the busiest time to go and it can become manic. However, there is a charm in the chaos as finds items and places different from the mainstream. There is not much seating available, so it is a case of being moved by the crowd, but it and the surroundings will give you something of interest to visit.Written 2 December 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- EmilyNorthampton, UK680 contributionsI make regular visits to Covent Garden throughout the year, it’s a perfect place in London for any time of year and any kind of weather. As beautiful in winter as it is in summer. There is always something new to see or do and it’s a perfect location for a casual walk round, spot to eat or quick drink.Written 30 November 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

It is a great picture spot, but not too much else happening around there.Written 29 November 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
