Spent a good couple of hours here on a wet Monday morning, and we were very glad we did. The architecture from the outside is amazing, and the opulence of the interior even more so. The chandelier in the dining room is unique, one of the best I have ever seen - fabulous. The free audio guide is great. We...

We went primarily because we got in free with an offer, but we were so glad we did. The audioguide (free for all visitors) was very good, as it gave just enough information but one could opt for more info if required.
The decor is awesome. Obviously a world away from other royal residences, given the Prince's taste, but the...

Glad I went in to the Pavillion itself as it was an education into how they lived back then. Ask for a pensioners tarrif if you are over 60 as it is half price.

The dining room and music room in particular are exceptional with the most amazing and lavish decoration which is not at all what might be expected from the outside. The Chinese influence is everywhere. The audio guide is included in the price and one of the best we have encountered.
However not allowing photographs is irritating and service in the...

An interesting visit; makes you wonder why the tumbrils weren't employed in England. What the Indian troops recuperating there during WWI made of it, goodness knows.

This is a must place to visit in Brighton. Very beautiful building on the outside put inside it is even better. I could get over the sheer beauty of some of the rooms, especially the dinning room with the massive and detailed chandelier.

Nice quirky interiors but they don't allow you to take photographs which I think is shocking given the entry price!
