Henry VIII's purloined palace (from Cardinal Wolsey) is a treasure - a very large one. The tapestries in the hall are beautiful. If you have a child, pick up the children's trail at the visitor center. There are also reenactors portraying different stories in the inhabitants' lives every day. We met Henry VIII & Catherine Howard the day we were... more

My husband, daughters (ages 12 and 9), and I visited Hampton Court Palace during our vacation to England in August and it was definitely the highlight of the London area.

First the hand held tour voice guides still need simplification. We got frustrated that we were always ahead of the tour tape and just turned... more

The contrast between the old palace and the renewed one is breath taking. Audiotour is a must and is included with your ticket. Its a great... more

Staying with a friend near Hampton Court, I had to visit the palace. It was wonderful. The various parts of the castle are all different, and the gardens are beautiful.
