‘‘The Old Royal Naval College in Greenwich is a stunning historical site and an architectural masterpiece.
Attending a graduation ceremony there is an unforgettable experience, surrounded by its grand Baroque-style buildings and awe-inspiring Painted Hall.….’’
- Review by Basil George

What we think

The college is a beautiful architectural masterpiece both inside and outside. And while many admire it from outside it is definitely worth paying that extra fee to get a sneak peak of the beautiful painted hall and its other rooms.
