Handel Hendrix House brings together the homes of two very different musicians who lived next door to each other, two centuries apart: George Frideric Handel at 25 Brook Street from 1723 until his death in 1759, and Jimi Hendrix at the adjoining flat at number 23 from 1968. You can explore the restored rooms, learn about each musician's life and music, and catch live music events held at the house. It suits music lovers and anyone curious about London's cultural history. Note that the lift is currently out of service, so bear this in mind if accessibility matters to you. The museum sits in Westminster, just 0.1 miles from Bond Street station, with 791 bookable places to stay within 5 miles on BritStays for those planning an overnight visit.
