Brilliant museum! Should be in the guidebooks - My favourite art museum in Budapest out of the few I saw, I really loved the place, so did my mum. I nearly didn't find this place as in my guidebook (Lonely Planet), didn't recommend this place at all, I was surprised they didn't recommend this one in Budapest. Additionally, the work on the display was brilliant, my aim was to find a place that showed off Hungarian contemporary artists and the Ludwig Museum had that, but all seeing some well known ones was great too. As well, the extra show that was on during my visit, The Cuteness Factor, was fantastic and so cute! Would come back and visit it again, very much enjoy a gallery that changes its shows and permanent collection often.

Eclectic,stylish collection - An eclectic exhibition of contemporary art in a sleek and stylish building by the Danube. I highly recommend the permanent collection for an hour's enjoyment.

Amazing place - Amazing place even if you go for the building only. Architecture wise it is just wow and the permanent collection is very interesting (Picasso, Hockney…). We really liked the exhibition as well. All in all, a place not to be missed!

Worth a visit - This is a beautiful spacious gallery and the artwork is curated perfectly. We enjoyed the variety of pieces. It was helpful to find descriptions in both Hungarian and English. The third floor houses the permanent collection which is relatively small. The Picasso's are a joy to see in real life. The cafe is ok. The access is good for people with reduced mobility as there are lifts to all floors. However, they do not have wheelchairs to borrow which would be a great asset for those of us that struggle to make our way round the whole exhibition. There are plenty of sofas though.

Prepare to enter the surreal... - Most everything I saw was unusual, extraordinary and I'll admit, the kind of things I have never seen before. That in itself was worth the visit!

Beautiful Building - Ultra modern building,nice display of contemporary art, temporary exhibition of design and patterns was good too. Got the number 2 train to the site, very easily accessible. The cafe was lovely, the cake selection was excellent. The free cloakroom mean you can leave your outer clothing, it is lovely and warm so don't carry them with you. (The toilets are the cleanest I've seen in Hungary.The seat rotates and cleans itself!)

OK to kill some time. Nothing breathtaking. - It's an ok museum. When we went there wasn't much specials hanging in the walls or gracing the floors. There were a few interesting pieces but those can be counted on one hand. Perhaps simply not my cup of tea which can of course simply be the case. The museum itself is a nice building, good lighting (except a smaller hallway with lots of glare in normale glass) and spacious rooms.

Poor value for money - Two out of three floor were closed. This was not properly communicate neither by webpage or when thing tickets. Waste of time and money.

Management clearly ignore reviews - I had high hopes for this place, and the tram ride to get there was great....however, although we were virtually the only visitors in the galleries (and you would be forgiven for thinking we had a craft knife in one hand and graffiti spray paint in the other), we were followed from one room to the next in all the exhibitions. Very uncomfortable, so much so that we abandoned our viewing early and went to the cafe - where I got a nice smile and a decent coffee. I have emailed the Museum director (which has been read and received no reply. Of course there is an opportunity here for mischief - like suddenly turning on your heels and viewing the exhibits in reverse order to confuse the staff. Not going back.
