Attractions and Rides

Pros:

  • "My kids of 7 and 5 yo had so much fun in this perfect place, well decorated with a lot of rides and games."
  • "Modern kids play park, decent amount of rides to keep kids entertained."
  • "It has a mixture of rides and games and was sure entertaining for the kids as well as myself."
  • "Rides and games are available for all ages."
  • "The indoor rollercoaster just takes you around the track 4 times with a few speeding up and drops, nothing too scary but great fun."
  • "They have bumper cars, arcade games, pinball games, air table tennis, and even an indoor roller coaster."
  • "Had a range of different arcade games, rides, bumper cars and an indoor rollercoaster."
  • "The roller coaster and the cashier bit was all fine."

Cons:

  • "Little bit expensive though. I had to pay 25£ more while I had already paid 50£."
  • "There is a little delay before the ride starts which means you can end up scanning (paying) twice."
  • "Very high-quality arcade machines were here too and I thought the indoor rollercoaster was a nice addition although I didn't go on it as I wasn't sure if I would fit."
  • "The big rides were not working when we came and I was struggling to top up my card as none of the machines would accept my cards (kept showing error) until a lady there helped me by topping it up on the gift shop machine."
  • "Its ok, something different to bring the kids to. Expensive, not enough coins for a decent amount of rides."
  • "The roller coaster is the most unique thing about this place - the worker there kindly let us on when I let him know my coins were wasted on a machine that didn't work."
  • "Underground game hall in Camden. Opened recently and probably most famous for the indoor rollercoaster. I think it's probably more for kids and a little overrated but definitely a eye-catcher."
  • "I started off with £5 which only covered one ride of which I had to buy more coins, with most rides being 48 credits that’s about £5 a ride and the cycles weren’t that long either."

Staff and Customer Service

Pros:

  • "The place was clean and well staffed, and the staff were very helpful."
  • "Nicely laid, was enough space to wheel a pram around. Friendly staff at reception offered to store push chair for us."
  • "Staff were amazing, friendly and played along with the kids."
  • "Staff is very friendly, especially Far was very helpful and really made my day! Thank you Far!"
  • "The staff are really friendly, and there's a ton of games and rides for children to enjoy."
  • "Great for young kids, family days out, and date nights. Staff were very helpful and friendly."
  • "We were just visiting candem market when we saw this place and then Far introduced it to us and the experience was amazing he's the best!"
  • "Invited here for a kids party. What a magical place! But the staff. Jason !!! Amazing!!!! His Vibes! His energy!! Kids loved him ! Adults loved him !!!!"

Cons:

  • "Toilets where disgusting for a place with children attending."
  • "Get the app, don't bother with the card. The issues came with the staff ignoring us when trying to redeem tickets - we waited over 15 mins while the guy kept serving pushy parents and kids who would climb the counter and demand attention."
  • "I also came across five different machines that were not working."
  • "Our experience at Babylon park was okay but one of the staff members was quite rude and disrespectful towards me, my son and my 12 year old sister in the soft play area."
  • "The only issue I had as someone with IBS is when you go to the toilet you need to either get your card ready or the app and wait for the app to connect before going to the toilet."
  • "It is very nice and unique place theme is absolutely amazing. I would definitely recommend this to other people as well. I didn't find anything bad there so 5/5."
  • "Took my 2.5yr son here and with all the lights and sound, he loved it. We went in the soft play, however, do note, there are 2 sections, one section for young children / babies (approx under 3 year) and a separate soft play for those older."
  • "Very much for families and kids. A fun time, but nothing to write home about. Selection of games and rides are good and its a good experience."

Price and Value

Pros:

  • "Definitely a great place to visit in Camden and spend for a couple of hours indoors. The entry is free and you can purchase any amount of game coins you like."
  • "Great for young kids, family days out, and date nights. I bought my coins online for £99 which gave me over 1000 coins, 5 free big rides and 2 food/drinks."
  • "There's something for everyone... soft play, rides, arcade games. The kids loved it... I can really appreciate the security team they have as they were very friendly and helpful."
  • "Great indoor place for kids, plenty of arcade games. One roller coaster ride for older kids and couple rides for younger ones too."
  • "When we went in it was really big and you have the option to have a look around before buying any coins which is nice as you can see if it is for you."
  • "I recommend getting the app first as you can by coins through it and earn additonal points."
  • "The place was quite empty, so there was no queues to use any rides. We each spent £25 which was enough for a few of the big rides and a lot of the little mini games."
  • "Great places to take the kids. I went with my 2 years and 5 year old and they were able to go on most of the rides."

Cons:

  • "Little bit expensive though. I had to pay 25£ more while I had already paid 50£."
  • "Pricey as you would expect, get the app beforehand."
  • "Obviously quite pricey, you top up a Babylon card and swipe it to play each game or for each person to go on a ride."
  • "There is a little delay before the ride starts which means you can end up scanning (paying) twice."
  • "Bought £25 of coins and was able to keep two kids entertained for about an hour. Some common sense was required to make it stretch for this long as the rides are very expensive."
  • "The place was reasonably full on a Thursday during school holidays which meant the best games were occupied most of the time. No queue for rides except a short one for the bumper cars."
  • "You must try the roller coaster and sit on the front seat. Only thing is it can get expensive, so you need to keep an eye on what you are spending."
  • "Expensive even after buying a bundle. But the kids thoroughly enjoyed it! So many things to do."
