The Cabinet War Rooms are fascinating; learn what Winston Churchill's secretary thought about taking dictation from him, and imagine a time when the leaders of Britain expected invasion any day. The Churchill Museum is excellent - not organized chronologically but in a much better fashion. We (parents and teenaged son) spent 2 1/2 hours there and could have spent much... more

Hard to believe that this fascinating piece of history sat closed off to the world for nearly 40 years, until it was finally opened as a museum in the mid-eighties. An underground complex that housed Windton Churchill, his cabinet members and a staff of near 500, this bunker was the same haven for British leadership during the German Blitz in... more

To be clear, this review if for the Cabinet War Rooms, not the Churchill Museum portion (reviews are posted separately). This was an absolutely fascinating place. Peeking into all the rooms, you can just imagine what it was like during the war. The audio tour adds to the overall experience. In our ever-changing world, it's refreshing to visit a spot... more

This is an excellent museum and not to be missed if you have any interest in WWII. The Churchill Exhibition is very well done with plenty to keep the whole family occupied (although young children may struggle). We only expected to be in there for an hour or two, but ended up spending close to 4 hours reading, listening and... more

This was great. A little pricey on the American Dollar, but well worth it. It was truly like travelling back in time. Much of the place is kept similar to what it was like in the 1940s -- complete with the Trans-Atlantic Phone, Churchill's Room, his kitchen, and the war rooms. Afterwards, there is a pretty extensive Churchill Museum detailing... more

I love this museum. It's not a place to spend hours and hours like some of London's other museums, but for a smaller sight it is fantastic. There is nothing more interesting to me than being able to learn about history in the exact spot that it happened. The museum is very user-friendly and everything is very well marked and... more

I'm not a ww2 survivor or contemporary of that war, nor a Churchill buff, nor a spelunker. But this was a highlight of our trip last year, and we'll go back this year. This museum brings history to life and is an intimate, fascinating look at an individual who changed the twentieth century. just go, take your time, and soak... more

Step back in time as you enter the Cabinet War Rooms. This underground bunker near Downing Street is where Winston Churchill and his Cabinet commanded the British forces during WW II. You can see the meeting rooms, which are arranged today as they were left at the end of the war. You can see maps on the wall with pins... more

There is so much to see and do in London, but the relatively newly opened Cabinet War Rooms and Churchill Museum are truly right at the top. Maybe I have seen too many WW II movies, but this attraction brings everything to life. These rooms are exactly as they were. After the war in Europe ended, the doors to the... more
