British Museum

As Great Britain’s Empire expanded, so did its cache of material treasures – many of which are on display in this world-class museum. Among its eight million exhibits, you'll find the stunning Elgin Marbles from Greece, the Benin Bronzes and the legendary Rosetta Stone. The Reading Room stands at its heart and is spectacular in size and scope.

    Get a guided tour.

    Get a guided tour. I normally like to explore places under my own steam. However I have missed so much in this incredible museum before my American Cousin persuaded me to join her on a tour! Also sometimes retired professors do free mini tours of their chosen subject. I enjoyed a fascinating tour of the Elgin/Parthanon marbles

    Do not go to this museum thinking you will see everything. Even with close to four hours, we barely scratched the surface--but what you do see is incredible and that means there's always more for a future visit!

    We were overwhelmed by the number of noisy visitors first thing in the morning. It was not a warm day but it was very stuffy and there was no air flow through a lot of the galleries. The information tags on some of the exhibits were poorly placed and very difficult to read unless you were right up close.

    Pre-book a ticket or go on a late opening evening ( The queues can be very long). The Egyptian /Assyrian statues and monuments are spectacular ,asare the controversial Elgin marbles. For intrinsic British exhibits, Roman Britain is fascinating. The reading room is hosting an exhibition at the moment. A very interesting space set in The Great Court. Top tip _ don't try to see everything in one visit. Plan and Prioritize!! Top Tip:

    Too crowded to really see the exhibits.

    Too crowded to really see the exhibits. We booked a slot which I thought was to stagger the influx of people but clearly not. The British museum is world class when it's not too busy. Bring your own food and drinks ,come as early in the day as possible. Try to go to toilets outside of the museum as you could be stuck in a very long queue. There are free lockers for bags etc but again come early as these fill up very quickly, the alternative is the cloakroom which is expensive to leave coats/bags etc.

    Location definitely, near tube, rail and train stations which is why I chose it. It is in the lovely suburb of Pimlico and the street is quiet. Plus the no 24 bus takes you past a lot of icon London landmarks on the way to the British museum

    I think the location is superb if you need to be near major northern stations in London. Excellent travel ref tube bus. Walkable as well. Not sure if most of the overseas tourists they deal in can grasp that. Staff are well trained. Kindly and uber professional. I came latish from the theatre. So kind the two night staff. Next to Tavistock Square. 2 mins Euston. 5 mins KX. St Panc. Top Bloomsbury address. Russell Square tube. British Museum Etc etc. Plus amazing staff doing the breakfast. Amazing

    The location was exceptional, by the British Museum and within walking distance of 2 metro stations. The design of the hotel was classy and we felt like we were living in a Victorian era hotel. The staff were super friendly. The room was super clean and the staff would check on our condition twice a day making sure nothing was missing.

    The location is absolutely perfect! It’s super easy and convinient. You can walk everywhere, 1-2 minute walk and you’re on the underground. Kings Cross Station is 5 minutes away, British Museum is 20 mins. The staff are very helpful and lovely people. The room was small but enough for a short stay. I recommend staying here especially for solo travelling.

    Overall, it was a nice experience. The rooms are really big and spacious, there are lockers under the beds, USBs by the beds for charging phones and sockets in different parts of the room. The bar is also a plus. Realy good showers. The location is the greatest advantage, walking-distance to several public transport options (bus and underground) and points of interest, such as The British Library and The British Museum, safe area.
