I was not expecting such a great experience when I entered it.It's one of the best medieval places I've been, the feeling you have once inside is very different from visiting some medieval ruins.The restoration work at St. Mary's while maintaining the original building was amazing.The staff is very friendly and will teach you a lot. Definitely is worth the visit when in Coventry.The price is cheap for the amount of history and autentic medieval feeling you get.

What an amazing history this place has. War of the Roses and Elizabethan history oozes galore! A must visit, the Great Hall is astonishing and the Tapestry a great treasure to behold.

Had a wonderful visit to the Guildhall! I enjoyed it so much I booked to go back again! The tablets provide lots of information as you go around. The staff are very knowledgeable and told us so many interesting facts and told us what we were looking at. I popped my head into the restaurant afterwards which looked gorgeous, so will book a table there next time. Definitely worth a visit, especially for history buffs

Fantastic day out with the kids, lots of activities for them to get involved with, and always themed to the time of year. Halloween, Christmas etc. The staff were all really warm and welcoming and interacted well with the children.

We visited during the Heritage Open Days and we really enjoyed it. We?ve been here before but it?s been awhile. What a beautiful place. A real gem in the city. So much historical and so well preserved. Like the freedom that we could wander everywhere without people trying to get you to see something. The rooms are so intricate with so much history and detail. I felt you could spend an afternoon there if you loved history. I?d highly recommend a visit!

Had the most brilliant afternoon visiting St Mary's Guildhall. The tourist attraction is filled with historic values that everyone should see. A massive thankyou to the staff but a personal thankyou to Hannah who took so much time in explaining so much of the buildings history. She was brilliant and made my visit to Coventry the most enjoyable experience that I will never forget. Thanks again.

A fascinating old building which gives you a lot of insight into the history of Worcester. Lots for children.

Visited this wonderful building on Wednesday 6 July. Great staff, who ensured an elderly gentleman could manage the information tablet. This was really useful, but I learnt considerably more from the lovely lady member of staff who accompanied me. What she told me about the tapestry wouldn?t be on the tablet, and I was captivated by her account of how this precious building was prepared for the blitz by removing stained glass, the tapestry and finials in the roof to a place of safe keeping.Well done to all who have invested time, money and skills to preserve this place for us. Friendly, knowledgeable and attentive staff - thank you all.Went on to enjoy a cream tea at the tea room and then explore the new cathedral, which reduced me to tears.

Certainly one of the best Coventry attractions. I have revisited it after 10 years now. Wow! Huge change. A lot more to see great descriptions, beautiful place and all enhanced with optional vr supported tour on provided tablet. Tons of information. Great for adults and kids (over 6 I'd say, but not an expert here ). Took us about 2hours (just to go through all video descriptions). Free with cvgo+ app serious discounts with cvgo, otherwise quite pricey.

The Guildhall is very beautiful and situated in what survives of Coventry's atmospheric historic quarter. However, whoever, in their wisdom, decided that it is fair to go cashless on the entrance fee needs to think again. Foreign tourists may face extra bank charges. Domestic visitors may prefer cash. It's called choice. On this basis, I would not recommend this or indeed any other historic destination that insists on cashless payments.

What an amazing gem of history! It?s like traveling in time across 700 years since when Coventry first became an independent city and eventually the centre of power in England when Henry VI moved to the city during the War of the Roses. Fascinating place, very well kept and wonderful staff sharing their knowledge of history across every century.
