Churchill War Rooms
This was our favorite museum in London. If you have several days in London, you should add it to your list of things to do. It is walkable to Big Ben, Parliament, and Westminster Abbey. The museum about Churchill's life was very interesting. We learned things we never knew about him. And the war rooms were fascinating. How they lived during World War II. It was so good that we may go back again. We recommend buying tickets in advance.

Incredibly poignant and detailed experience that's a must when visiting London. You could almost feel the spirit of the war effort as you walked through the place, which was largely untouched from when the war ended. You really got a.feel for the spirit of everyone who worked down there during the war and feel the presence of Churchill all around. The audio tour was not too long but still had plenty of detail. Not cheap at £33 but you will be there for 2.5 hours easily

Whilst the war rooms are an interesting visit, they are on a very small scale! We felt the £27.00 entrance fee was rather excessive for such a small museum. The Churchill exhibition is an added bonus to the museum.

Depending on your interests, to me this is a filler. If this is your first time in London and you are short in time, I'd say just skip it and go to the highlights, unless you are really interested in WWII stuff.Don't misunderstand me, this is a great museum, really interesting and fascinating. I visit it during my first time in London, but I had one full week, which was plenty of time.I'd strongly recommend booking in advance and arriving as early as you can. This is definitely a must see, if you can't make it the first time, be sure to plan for your second visit.Truly incredible, and so packed of history.

This is such a lovely place. It is very historical and loads information about the way the war handled and ran during the war. You can Churchill was a Conservative and not with the other parties. He was very focused on winning the war even when things were not going as planned. He was a true warrior and deserved more recognition. The people who worked underground were very special people, and they deserved a medal. Back to the place in this day and age now, the place has been very well restored and looked after. There is a very well run cafe and not too expensive with lovely food.

For those that are coming their first time, plan to book a tour in advance especially during summer months. Having lived in London for ~4 years this is on of my favourite things to bring guests to- having been 5 times to the museum it still doesn’t get old. Plan for at least 90 minutes for the tour. This is a must see in London for anyone that can appreciate the decisions that were made in this bunker that ultimately lead to our modern world. Churchill is a man unlike any other and to see his and this great country’s story unfold during such a pivotal time is a once and a life time experience.

The War Rooms and fittingly, the Churchill Museum share this location. Both are astoundingly informative. I will leave most of the surprises for travelers to discover on their own. His favorite firearm, which he purchased in 1916 and used on the western front in WWI, was an American M1911 .45 Auto.

Visite chaudement recommandée.Nous y sommes restés plus de deux heures et n'avons pas vu le temps passer. Le site regorge d'informations plus intéressantes les unes que les autres. Il permet surtout de brosser un portrait complet de Churchill. Quel homme incroyablement charismatique et intéressant !L'audio-guide est particulièrement bien pensé et chaque piste audio donne envie d'être écoutée avec attention.Les vidéos le long du parcours permettent également de mieux appréhender le lieu.Seul point négatif : Nous avions réservé notre visite mais nous avons dû malheureusement un peu attendre car le personnel laisse certains visiteurs sans billet passer avant. Assez étonnant ...

The little over 2 hours spent there was well worth it. As Americans, seeing the English side of the world wars and the troubles was good. The museum is well organized and has tons of detailed artifacts if you have the time.

Churchill War Rooms
Surprisingly well designed museum that both shows the War Rooms from which the British armed forces were coordinated, and the personal history of Churchill. Reserve about 1.5 hours if you want to have a good look, however if closing time is near, the friendliest museum staff I've ever encountered will quietly and very politely inform everyone individually, that you should move on if you want to see the war rooms as well (which we managed thanks to them). Note that the shop closes at the same time as the museum, so visit that first if you're late. Well recommended.
