Queen's House is a former royal residence built between 1616 and 1635 in Greenwich. It is the centre of Greenwich for hundreds of years, the beautiful Queen's House has also been at the heart of royal life. The Queen’s House is famous today for its extraordinary art collection including works by Great Masters such as Gainsborough, Reynolds, Turner and Hogarth. And don't forget to see the iconic Armada Portrait of Elizabeth I, climb the Tulip Stairs (many saw ghosts here), etc.

I spent a delightful hour exploring the Queen's House in Greenwich, taking in the beautiful art inspired by naval themes and Greenwich itself. The Tulip Stairs are breathtaking, and the Great Hall, with its black and white geometric tiles, is equally impressive. The architecture of the building is also noteworthy. With no entrance fee, it's definitely worth a visit if you're nearby. However, it might not be very engaging for children due to the prevalence of old master style paintings and the numerous stairs.

Very interesting to be able to visit the actual house of Queen Elizabeth the 1. Very beautiful house and the meridian line is just up the hill. Very good to take children and learn a bit more of British history.

This bright white villa was at the cutting edge of architecture and design when it was completed in the 1630s. During the 17th century the Queen's House was a royal 'House of Delights': a luxurious retreat for Kings and Queens, a place of pleasure for court favourites. Btw it’s the heart of Greenwich.

I had a great experience visiting The Queen's House in Greenwich. The architecture of the building is really prominent. There is a gorgeous hall and a magnificent spiral stair: The Tulip staircase. The exhibition of portraits is one of the best I have seen ever. Staff is very friendly. I want to come back to see the gallery more in detailed.

The entry for Queens House is completely free. We need atleast 30-40 min to see the House. Their are many paintings, Armoury, jewellery... Particularly the paintings are just wow.. it looks so real... The closet station is Greenwich station. It's about 5-10 min walk from Station. Close to Queens House you have other attractions like Marine Museum, Observatory, Greenwich Park.... All these are must visit place.

Anyone visiting London should also visit this area, including the Queen's House, which was designed by architect Inigo Jones and sparked a design revolution when it was completed. For four hundred years you gaze admiringly at these masterpieces. I was most impressed by the spiral staircase, which I think is absolutely wonderful.

I had an amazing time visiting and exploring the Queen's House in Greenwich. It's definitely worth a visit since admission is free. The location is great as it is near the National Maritime Museum and Greenwich Park, which means you can spend the whole day exploring the area. The Tulip Stairs are a must-see, they are beautiful and breathtaking. The Queen's House itself has an amazing architecture that is worth seeing and photographing too.

While in Greenwich we spent an enjoyable hour in the Queen's House. Initially we went there to see the Armada portraits of Queen Elizabeth I which didn't disappoint but we saw so many other interesting portraits and sculptures while we were there. I thought we would be straight in and out but that wasn't the case with lots to see. Recommended.

Very cute little house, must-visit if you love Baroque, and rococos style I have to say. The museum is full of painting from the British marine history with is nice.

The Queen's House is one of the most important buildings in the history of British architecture, being the first consciously classical building to be built in Great Britain. open to the public daily, free of charge, along with the museum's other galleries and the 17th century Royal Greenwich Observatory, which is also part of the National Maritime Museum.

🫅🧭🏛️⛲🏰🌐🗾Queens house former royal residence between 1600's . It's architecture done by indigo Jones. It became a famous art work home now. It's famous for it architectural similarity to roman construction. It's quite different from other British buildings. The house is now primarily used to display the museum's substantial collection of marine paintings and portraits of the seventeenth to twentieth centuries, and for other public and private events. It is normally open to the public daily, free of charge, as well as other museum galleries .

A great starting point for anyone spending the day in the Greenwich area. Enjoy the queen's house but before going in remember to donate (these marvelous museums are keep in perfe t shape thanks to donations), next scan the qr code so you'll have the audio tour. It will enhance the experience of every room, marvel yourself with the sights and the data from the guides, perfevt match. Take your time and enjoy, recommend to always look up, some of the best decorations and mural are on the ceilings, so look up. Wonderful place, mesmerizing environment and even better locaticon, you can spend plenty of time just enjoying the gardens with a cup of tea, coffee or just gazing at the horizon. Next you should definitely go to National Maritime museum, right next to Queen's house and if you are still hungry for more.. go to the 02 and get a ticket for the Upatthe02. Best way to end the day

The Greenwich area overall is one that I recommended checking out, between the Queen’s House and the Naval College there is a lot to see, specially on a rainy day! The house hosted some great art and there are finishes within the home which are really detailed and rich. Check out the conservation in action area and speak to artist restoring marvelous works of art

Queen's House is worth a visit whilst in Greenwich. It's free to visit and not far from the Old Royal Naval College, so you can make a day of it if you're a history buff. Queen's House has loads interesting artifacts and paintings. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable. It's suitable for all age groups

Lovely gallery at the Queen's House in Greenwich. I always feel so humbled compared to great artists in history. Many portraits of the royals and friends of the Court, but also a lot of naval inspired motives. I quite liked the modern inspired selection the gallery also offered with an interesting point of view in the current society we live in.

One of London's lesser-known gems, and one of my favourite places to visit. Stunning, evocative paintings (mainly naval themed) draw you in and take you back in time to a world that was. The Queen's House is the perfect home to these works, so restful and peaceful, allowing you to go at your own pace and to take it all in without distraction. Staff are knowledgeable and helpful, and love to share their knowledge with you if you ask. And of course, it's in Greenwich, such a lovely place to visit any time of the year.

Historic building with world class art. Well displayed. Friendly helpful staff. Free entry (book online).

A hidden gem! Didn't know what to expect but was positively surprised. A nice little museum with a good diversity of paintings - and the building itself is stunning. The staff was also incredibly nice and knowledgeable. Going the extra mile to explain stuff and recommend what to see. Give it a try - it's free.

Finding The Tulip Stairs by chance was like finding a hidden gem in Greenwich. I loved how they showcased the entire house with such detail and care. I highly recommend visiting if you're walking along Greenwich Park or visiting Greenwich Museum. The crew staff were very friendly and warm. The toilets were okay, it was kept clean and tidy but had some issues with flushing. Overall, it was a great find.

Nice mansion located in Greenwich with vast collection of maritime theme. Definitely recommended as part of Greenwich visit

Has a spectacular view of Greenwich Park and Old Royal Naval College, and a few pop up igloos for dining in. Food stalls around the area. Could easily spend an entire day here.

Love the house and art gallery 😍😍 paintings are very beautiful and amazing🤩 I recommend visiting the gallery and enjoying the Greenwich park together in one day plan.

This Is Really An Awesome Place To Visit because Its my Home!

A former Royal palace which is now used to house many works of art relating to its former use and also of the maritime history of Greenwich and Britain

Really enjoyed my visit to the Queen’s house. It is free which makes it perfect for a visit while on a day out in Greenwich. You don’t need much time here but it is worth a visit, there is a very nice collection of art.

Stunning amazing.a place that should all visit.when you looking around for the entrance and it's this small door .you should put something bigger so people find it easier.many people asked me today where is the entrance. Recommend this place its amazing.thank you

Great attraction, free to enter, not much you can do nowadays for free. Highly recommended.

The museum and artefacts were absolutely astounding and the detail that some Of the art in the gallery was spectacular. The building was grand and vintage with a touch of modern inside of it.

This is a medium size art gallery/museum located in the historical 'Queen's House' adjacent to Greenwich Park and a short stroll from Greenwich town centre. Free admission is a major plus point. The artworks on display are primarily maritime with others relating to the royal connection of this site. There is quite a lot to take in but the museum is well laid out with a specific route to take through the building. In addition there is an explanation of the use of each room. The attendants also were helpful and informative.

It looks beautiful from the outside, like a good place to have an event or a wedding, definitely photo shoot from the outside. Once you enter and start looking around all you see is paintings on walls and that is it. No furniture what so ever, it's like the place was completely robbed but left the paintings behind. At least the entrance was free because its not worth more than that.

Amazing, amazing, amazing! The experience was incredible, that we could enjoy the art works devoted to the kings and queens in their rooms. Imaging how they’d meticulously scrutinise the portraits, the paintings in the era without photography. Impressive, very impressive. Come and take the tour. Worth the time.

Lovely art here at the Queens House and completely free, although they do want you to book the tike slot online that you're planning to visit to make sure it doesn't get too crowded so make sure to do that. Definitely don't miss this on your trip to Greenwich or to London.

We ran out of time and only saw the first floor. This is a quickie. Beautiful art. It's free. Go in, it won't take long. The top painting is Queen Victoria age 23. I'll go back next trip to London.

Absolutely incredible experience! Went when all Elizabeth I paintings were present and it was surreal. The decoration in the house is lovely, the architecture is incredible, especially the main staircase, the Great hall looks stunning and of course, the exhibits such as furniture, paintings, busks etc all look absolutely incredible! Must recommend for anyone who has a love for this period of history and just wants to see a stunning estate!

We had a lovely afternoon. Beautiful painting collections and free entry! What not to like. Very knowledgeable volunteers in most rooms. Highly recommended!

Wonderful staircase - something of real beauty. And the Armada portrait of Elizabeth I can be viewed up close - that's amazing too. A free visit in glorious surroundings at Greenwich is an opportunity not to be missed.

Even if not really close to the Londin city center, I would recommend 100% visiting the Queen’s House. Entrance is free and there’s an amazing exhibition. Staff is really friendly and even explained us some history. There’s even a “London hidden gem”: The Tulip Stairs✨

I love it, defo recommend! Such a beautiful building and so much to see! Such a deep history here

Great museum and free too!

Amazing and mesmerising

Magnificent, hidden gem of Greenwich, beautiful setting. Staff are well educated about the house and it’s collections so it was good to be greeted by staff who had such enthusiasm and passion for the house they work in I’ll definitely return

Nice visit

Must visit museum - not busy on a Saturday afternoon. We made a reservation for four but in the end they didn’t check our tickets at the entrance. They basically let visitors in. Very interesting collection of paintings. As well as the well known tulip stairs at the very end of the trip.

A fine and historically important paladian house by Inigo Jones. Visit a bit spoilt by the intrusive racket of "music" that someone decided was appropriate for a display of Woburn treasures.

An amazing place that was absolutely packed when we visited. Given that it's free I'm sure that was also the appeal. Filled with a vast collection of paintings and naval history, and for someone not especially interested in seamen it was still a joy to experience. We booked tickets ahead but people seemed to be entering on the day itself without a reservation, but given that they are free tickets it's no harm in booking ahead!

Love!

Amazing restoration work and art displayed

(Translated by Google) It is very worthwhile to know the Queen's house and its history. Super attentive staff, I was very well attended by everyone. (Original) Vale muito a pena conhecer a casa da Rainha e sua história. Funcionários super atenciosos, fui muito bem atendida por todos.

Some beautiful art in a magnificent building

Beautiful construction near Greenwich Park. The House was Queen Henrietta Maria residence. It is an amazing construction, very well maintenance. The building it is from the 1600’s. Today together with the other Royal Greenwich’s Museums has the world’s largest collection of the leading marine artists of the 17’s. The insides rooms, are not very amazing, except for the ceiling of the kings’s room that is really gorgeous and the queen’s ceiling room as well.Also, the tulip stairs effect it is beautiful. It is worthy to visit as it is free entrance.

Booked a free ticket and went straight in. Wasn't expecting much, since the museum next door has many things, but was quite impressed by the paintings and the maze like layout. If you're passing by, it's worth popping in.

Very beautiful and Elegant. The Queen House is located next to Maritime Museum we visit London we should come to visit this place. Free entrance tickets

Good morning spent looking around and free

This was a very interesting place to visit, the artwork was mesmerising with detailed descriptions of the history behind each piece. I would highly recommend visiting.

The portraits of Elizabeth deserve your time

Fascinating really enjoyed it

I found the Queen's House art gallery very entertaining with a good variety of paintings and sculptures, in cluding some very famous works. I was lucky enough to attend at a time when the Woburn Collection (from Woburn Abbbey in Bedfordshire) was on loan to the gallery. This included several very well known works, most excitingly a portrait of a triumphant Elizabeth I, pictured in her most regal finery with a backdrop of windows giving on scenes of the defeat of the Spanish Arnada. Particularly interesting was to contrast the Woburn version with that already owned by the Greenwich museums, which was displayed next to it. I combined this with two other great visits - to the Maritime museum and the Cutty Sark. I also wandered the Thames footpath and the large, pleasant Greenwich park as well as having a stroll around the vicinity of the Royal Observatory. All of these great and contrasting sites are withing a very short walk of each other, making for a superb day out. The Queen's House Gallery is free to enter but you must book a slot during the covid crisis.

Went to visit all of the Greenwich maritime museums, but found that there so many fascinating pieces in the Queen's House that we spent the whole day there! We'll be going again and look forward to seeing the other features (as long as we don't get captivated by the Queen's House again)!

So.much learn...beautiful paintings. Its free and a great day out

Free entry. Nice the have a quick wonder around. Small and compact gallery. Went to see the Elizabeth I paintings.

Had to wait until after lock down for the Queen’s House to reopen to have a chance to go see the Armada portraits but it was well worth the wait! I booked online for the ‘free’ admission and it was a smooth and easy process. Even if you just go to see the three Elizabeth I Armada portraits it is worth it though once there you will spend a lot longer looking at all the other interesting exhibits they have! After all for a long while this was pretty much the home of the Kings and Queens of England! The views down to the Thames from the Great Hall and the spiral staircase are also beautiful! Definitely worthwhile making time to go visit and often forgotten when visiting all the other places around Greenwich.

Gorges historic place. They are following the new guidelines for covid 19. You need to book it in advance

What a fantastic place to see. With Covid-19 measures in place in and need to pre-book, it's actually much nicer and calmer experience. Definitely worth a visit!

We visited as part of a day trip to Greenwich. We had prebooked tickets although it was free to enter. We had to wait for our allotted time to ensure social distancing. We enjoyed our fairly short visit to Queens House which was primarily to see the Tulip Staircase which was beautiful.

This is a hidden gem, especially for art lovers. This beautiful house has many rooms to explore with amazing architectural features such as the tulip staircase. Free to visit and one of many things to do in this area. Make a day of it.

A superb collection of art in a beautiful setting and free to explore. Worth taking an hour or 2 to visit

(Translated by Google) Small museum worthwhile only if you get caught out there (Original) Pequeño museo que merece la pena solo si te pilla por ahi

Beauty and Peace

(Translated by Google) Very nice little castle. Lovingly designed and cared for. (Original) Sehr schönes kleines Schloss. Liebevoll gestaltet und gepflegt.

This was a royal residence but is now primarily used as an art gallery. You need a timed ticket which you should book in advance. It also has a picturesque spiral tulip staircase.

Really quaint museum, packed with amazing things. Would definitely go back with a little bit more time. Tour guide was super nice thank you ☺️

Great day out for couples and families (and all free). The house grand and beautiful and the exhibition — especially the Queen Victoria portraits — exquisite. Highly recommend taking a stroll up to the Observatory and and around the rose gardens too.

Fabulous paintings. Great building. Andrew a tour guide was very helpful

Simple architecture but beautiful location and design.

(Translated by Google) Very nice (Original) Sehr schön

Need to book in advance due to covid but it’s free

Great location, stunning views, building is spectacular. Lots of history to be learnt inside this house. Well worth a visit.

I love this place ♥️

We went to the Queen's House Greenwich. It was extremely enjoyable with lots of different portraits of people of old and famous battles. The tour is laid out across all floors and well marked. We spent a couple of hours in there but could have been longer. All that for a optional donation. Money well spent. Recommended

Worth seeing. Beautiful interiors and art with great historic value.

A lovely edifice, unique in England

Beautiful museum for free. Fantastic workers with big knowledge.

Good place, very interesting. Staff are very kind and helpful

Nice place to visit and a long walk too,some beautiful oil paintings dated to 18th century

Lovely mix of the museum's own historic pictures with treasure from Woburn, including three terrific versions of the Armada portrait. Lovely to catch it before the exhibition closes

Beautiful place to visit, lovely art, in gorgeous grounds. And its free!

Very beautiful

(Translated by Google) There is a lot of greenery (Original) Je tam veľa zelene😉

Found the Queens House so interesting spent 3 hours reading all the information on the Art Exhibited The staff were amazing all so helpful and friendly and gave loads of information on the Art and House

Enjoyed it but not really an art person. The queen's House is full of art and portraits. Kids thought they'd get to see the Queen so we're really disappointed.

For free, an unexpected jewel in Greenwich. Not big, so if you have an hour to spare go visit. With many thanks to the kind staff who gave me plenty of background info. Being Dutch, plenty to see that connects our two countries 🙂

A surprising wee gem. Room after room of paintings and various artworks owned by members of the Royal Family. The Tulip Staircase is worth a view on its own. Free admission.

It's a very exciting place to go to with family and friends. There is a free entry to queens house but you need to pay £10 or £16 to see meridian line and telescope gallery. Rest there is a huge park which I suppose is connected via all the buses

It's Situated next to Greenwich Park. Is a former royal residence used nowadays as a tourist attraction. It's a nice place to visit especially for painting lovers. The closest public transport stops are DLR Cutty Shark and Greenwich station or bus stops National Maritime Museum stop G and F. The River Thames is in close walking distance. Other attraction close by are the National Maritime Museum, Old Royal Naval College, or you can take a nice walk in Greenwich park see the Roy Observatory or just seat and look at the sunset over London.
