    Nice place (I’ve been twice) but way too busy and full with screaming children running around.

    Would be good to introduce some “adult only” times so that adults can enjoy it in peace.

    What an amazing museum, really friendly and helpful staff and an array of fascinating exhibits. What made it really special was the human touch, rather than just talking about what things were, they are brought to life by the personal stories attached to them.

    My friend has to walk with a frame , last time we came it dropped us off outside victoria , this time it was outside the bus terminal , and took us 40 mins to get into the centre , why was the drop off point changed? No thought has gone into elderly and disabled people making this trip.

    Great place to take the dogs for a walk, and the kids loved the play park the animal inclosure/mini zoo. Definitely a place to be in the summer! But a beautiful place in the winter.

    Really interesting museum to learn all about the history of the slave trade, it's taught me a lot that I didn't know, found it really interesting. Staff seem friendly and helpful, and it is free to visit. Definitely worth a visit as well as the other two museums next door!

    Nice marina with a good vibe and lots of restaurants and bars. Unfortunately Hull is a big dump and so this place stands out even more as the best part of the town. Wort a look

    Came here on Monday with a friend and headed to the cafe first and had poached eggs on toast with a hot chocolate and a flake and although it didn’t last long the food was delicious and just what you need for a lunchtime with a friend.

    Onto the main gallery itself we went to look at the latest exhibition which is currently running until May 5th and what impressed me about the latest exhibition is the LGBTQ corner and the video of the girl expressing herself through her songs.

    A very good art gallery I’m hoping to be back for the next exhibition.

    Unfortunately this museum of now closed for a couple of years for a complete refurbishment, when reopens in 2023 I am certain it will be great to visit.

    I travelled with the ferry from Calais to Dover for a school trip 25/09/'24 at none. Customs went smoothly and didn't take long. I had a breathtaking 1h30 on the boat. The staff was helpful and friendly, and the food and the ship were clean. Inside, it was beautifully decorated. There were fake trees for example. We went to the deck; the view was as pretty as a picture. I would love to do it again.
