Churchill Museum and Cabinet War Rooms

I visited the Cabinet War Rooms this past October. If you are interested in the WWII, you should visit this place. It is interesting to see what the rooms look like and how they used them back then. There was too much too see though. I got tired there. Don't go here at the end of a day. It is better to see earlier in the day when you have more energy. And if you are not really into WWII stuff....you should pass on this. Also, this is not a place for small children. They will be bored. I liked the hand-held tour guide phone. It allowed you to go at your own pace.

Great place, really enjoyable afternoon spent here with my boyfriend. I am not some war history enthusiast but yet found it incredibly interesting. The free audio guide made the tour even better. Great little tea room half way around, definitely worth stopping for a pot of tea and slice of cake!

I was excited to see this authentic spot, but was put off ultimately. It was simple and sparse, not much in the way of exhibit or information aside from the recreated scenes and rooms. The staff was downright rude at one point, the first and last time I experienced that in all my 10 days in the wonderful city. To be perfectly candid, that likely colored my opinion of the site a bit, but at best it was still not all that interesting. You can take photos, but of what I can't imagine. The maniquins pretending to take calls? Churchill's bed?

Honestly, you can see the best of it from the photos and information on the website. It was like going to a movie and realizing the best scenes were in the previews. And at nearly 13 pounds a person, it wasn't cheap either, although you do get a audio guide included in the price.
