About the escape room

The Da Vinci Room will see you take on the role of thief, but for the greater good. Dr John Albright has studied the workings of Da Vinci in great detail. He has amassed a considerable collection over the years, including what many believe to be the Holy Grail. Having gained his trust by helping him "acquire" items over the years, you have access to areas of his home and knowledge of his security that no-one else does. You've been paid well for your services over the years, but you've always felt that an item of the importance of the Holy Grail should be on display for everyone. The professor is away and now is your chance. Get in the room, grab the grail and get out. It should be easy!

Overview of artificial intelligence

AIPlayers consistently praise the game masters for friendly guidance and well-timed hints, especially over walkie‑talkies. Puzzles are described as clever and challenging yet logical, leading to frequent lightbulb moments. Families and newcomers report success with gentle nudges, and repeat visitors rank this room highly. Minor gripes pop up about the lobby/toilets and slower responses if you rely on camera waving for help.
WeaknessesReception and toilet areas could use a refresh. Visual cue responses can lag, so radioing for hints is smoother. Some teams may lean on hints more than they expected.
StrengthsCrisp, varied brainteasers that feel fair and satisfying. Attentive hosts who know when to nudge and when to let you think. Professional-feeling rooms in a location that’s easy to reach.
SecurityClear briefings and constant monitoring keep things controlled and comfortable. Walkie‑talkies make communication straightforward if you need assistance.
Level of fearNot scary and fine for kids; families with preteens and teens did well. Expect suspenseful puzzling, not horror.
Actors' gameGame masters like Rachael, Andy, and Daniel get shout‑outs for being relaxed, enthusiastic, and genuinely helpful. Interaction is supportive rather than performative, with hints tailored to momentum.
Quality of riddlesClever, well-sequenced brainteasers that reward observation and logic over brute searching. Difficulty ramps sensibly and hints are light but effective. Variety keeps the flow lively without feeling random.
PlotYou’re sneaking into a professor’s collection to nab the Holy Grail and slip out before he returns. It’s a classic caper frame that adds purpose to each lock and clue without heavy exposition.
Difficulty levelModerate to challenging for most groups, but accessible to first‑timers with a few hints. Great for mixed groups or families who enjoy thinking together.

Booked on a whim and loved it. The puzzles flow nicely and the heist vibe keeps you moving. Our host nudged us at just the right moments over the radio, so we never stalled for long. Would happily do another room here.

Third time at Escape London and Da Vinci is our top pick so far. For three adults plus kids aged 13 and 11, the difficulty felt perfect—testing but not punishing. Friendly staff and more polished rooms than other places we’ve tried. Strongly recommend.

Strong, thoughtful puzzles and a tidy finale, but the lobby felt a bit tired and camera-wave hints took a while. Radio support fixed that though. Still a solid night out.

My sister and I tried our first escape room at Shepherd’s Bush and had a brilliant time. The host made it easy to dive in, the puzzles challenged us without overwhelming, and a few hints kept things moving. Easy to reach by public transport and well worth it.

As total newbies we were nervous, but it clicked fast. Logical steps, cool reveals, and the walkie‑talkie help was quick and friendly. We left buzzing.
