This is a very big building, steeped in British history, but somehow is lacklusture and lacks the elegance of other similar stature buildings.

The gardens are well laid out, but can only be enjoyed in summer.

A great place to go if you are a fan of the Tudor era, never seen a European palace before, a historian, or have plenty of time as a tourist in London, but is easily missable if you are neither of those.

Easily accessible by public transportation, Hampton Court is definitely worth a visit for the historically inclined.

I spent half a day here and it was worth it. I decided against a guided tour and took the audio tour instead. This was worth the money and above average for audio guides I have taken in the past. It does a very nice job of taking you through the Tudor Kitchens, Royal Chapel, Great Hall, and Clock Court among others. There are numerous anecdotal stories as well as historical references from Henry VIII to George II to Christopher Wren.

A visit to the surrounding gardens was less inspiring, but that probably had more to do with the time of my visit (March... too warm to ice skate and too cold to bloom:) than with the grounds themselves. I would imagine after reading the reviews here that I may be making a return trip if I visit London during the spring or summer.

Most Beautiful Garden I Ever Saw

I visited Hampton Court a few weeks ago. I was staying in London and it took about an hour to get to the palace. The buildings and structures were pretty. I didn't not take a guided tour, but instead walked around with my group and we still learned and enjoyed the insides. One bad thing is that you can't take pictures inside the palace. The cafe was very good. I had strawberries and they were so fresh. The scones with jam were good, too. It was a bit expensive though. The gardens were amazing. I sat and admired them for about an hour. It was very quiet and nice. The flowers and trees are so colorful and well kept. I did the hedge maze, it was easy but fun. I recommend that you go spend some time at Hampton Court. The history of the place is interesting and the gardens are fabulous.

Staying with locals in Woking, we had originally discussed going to Windsor but settled on Hampton because it was a little bit cheaper and seemed like there was more to do. And there was!

The palace itself was incredibly interesting- who knew they needed a public bed and a private one? The kitchens and other displays, included period dressed employees, brought the history to life.

The gardens were probably the most spectacular part- in May especially, they were in full bloom. I was blown away at how vivid the colors were, and how painstaking the current staff must be in taking care of it all.

We stayed almost four hours, including doing the maze, walking around the entire gardens and throughout the palace. We got our money's worth as there is a lot to see!
