The Wallace Collection had been on my to-do list for several London visits and I finally made it in January. It is simply amazing! The collection reflects the acquisitions by one family over 4 generations and it is immense. Yet the museum is quite manageable and friendly for a day's outing. All in all it is a quite intimate experience.

The paintings themselves are lovely featuring Hals, Rembrandt, Titian, Boucher & Fragonard among others including a strong showing of Dutch & Fleming works. I especially enjoyed the collection of Sevres porcelain, one of the finest in the world, while partner spent his time viewing the amour.

The museum has a restaurant in the enclosed courtyard, audio phones available for a donation, free admission, and knowledgeable room guides.

Never boring - always something to find

I love this museum: the basis of the collection seems to have been 'is it for sale and do I have my wallet with me', but this means that it is full of suprises and after several visits I am still finding new treasures. It is pretty crammed, but the relatively small size of the house means that you can whisk around quite quickly, or just speed along to your favourite area before gallery fatigue sets in (anyone trying to do the National gallery in a short visit will know what I mean). The acid test: I took daughters 12 and 14 along, in the middle of a shoping trip, last week - despite initial 'we'll endure it for the sake of her credit card' looks, they really enjoyed it (and it is not too far from the coffee shops of Marylebone High Street. for a recovery break) The youngest has now developed a facination with minatures (of which there is a very good selection) I've been trying to persuade my husband to pop along in his lunch hour to see the armoury - not my area of interest but a good example of the amazing range of subjects on view. A friend and I spent a quick post lunch visit playing 'spot the painting that you recognise as a book cover illustration'. The restaurant is lovely - surely one of the best settings in London, but was closed when we visited on 1st September, being apparently refitted. Hope the food remains as good as I have expereinced - memorable risotto. My 2nd favourite gallery after the Courtauld in Somerset House. And it's free.

a little too much for me

This gallery has very ornate furniture and many, many paintings set fairly closely together. I found it a little overwhelming -- beautiful but not restful. If you like ornate art, though, you might...

This gallery has very ornate furniture and many, many paintings set fairly closely together. I found it a little overwhelming -- beautiful but not restful. If you like ornate art, though, you might love this. And there is an elegant dining area with great teas, cream and otherwise.

Visited the Wallace Collection for the first time this weekend, despite living locally for many years.

Hertford House is a beautiful 18th Century building, and there are lots of stunning objets d'art. The highlights for me were the Laughing Cavalier and the overly ornate French furniture.

Given that there's free admission, you really have no excuse not to while away an hour or two at the Collection.

The Wallace Collection had been on our to-do list for several London visits and we went there on a Sunday morning in June and we agree with the previous reviews that.. “It is simply amazing!”……… Although much larger than we were expecting it is very intimate and comfortable to visit . As all the previous reviewers have said the collection is fantastic, however the quality and style of the decor and finish of all areas of the building is also to be admired.

The museum has a restaurant in the enclosed courtyard offering excellent food at all times of the day and we will be back to this very stylish oasis just off Oxford Street many times to enjoy lunches or afternoon teas etc.
