I felt in love with this place, I can totatlly see why so many movies have been filmed here. It is impressively beautiful + it doesn't get too crowded. If it was more central, I would definitely visit here often. The "sofas" in which you can lie on are simply the perfect addition to experience and admire the hall. Everyone is super kind, specially Tommy and Sammy, who take the time to invite you to the tour.

We spent the most wonderful mid-day on August 30th in the Painted Hall with tour guide, Francisco. He led us around the hall telling us wonderful stories about the people in the painting, their complicated relationships with each other and the painter, the money that exchanged hands in the process, and the royals who are its subject. Francisco was thoughtful, delightful. and funny, and clearly loves being part of the team at The Old Royal Navel College. When I return I will surely look for Francisco, again.

Beautiful quick gallery. Worth it to wait for a guided tour which was about 35/40 min long. Tour guide was funny and had some stories behind the paintings and the painter that I wouldn’t have gathered on my own. Lovely.
