The twin domes on the river. The Painted Hall is worth the ticket; the grounds are free. Next is National Maritime Museum — do not also stack St Paul's the same day.
Analysis
Old Royal Naval College is not a facade you glance at. The grounds by day; chapel and Painted Hall hours differ. The quiet hour is the first after opening. A service may close the nave. Leave via Cutty Sark.
Best time

How to go
DLR Cutty Sark
Transit
Tap at Cutty Sark. If a service closes Old Royal Naval College, do not leave the last train until after the service ends.
Season window
Christmas and Easter change the hours at Old Royal Naval College. In winter stay indoors. In summer the steps bake at noon — move to shade or a side aisle.
Tips
- · Tickets: Grounds free; the Painted Hall is low to mid. Plan about 40 minutes.
- · The Painted Hall is a separate ticket
- · Keep voices down inside Old Royal Naval College. There are stone steps; wet soles slip. Bags come off the shoulder.
