What travelers are saying
- Andrew RCrawley, UK17 contributionsReally enjoyed the visit and tour. Anna our guide was very good, though a little quiet for deaf git like me. History and story behind this hospital in fascinating. Displays and condition is excellent. Well worth a visit and the fee. Budapest needs to start accept cash instead of card all the time. Cash is king.Written December 10, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

Approx £10 to play however many arcade games and pinball machines as you like. There’s a whole section for multiplayer games which were really fun. A few of the machines were out of order but there are so many there it didn’t imap y the experience.

Great place to visitWritten December 2, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The museum was very informative with written information and video footage. All information can be accessed in Hungarian and English.
The tickets were reasonably priced and I was pleased to get in for free as a teacher. There are also discounts available for students too.
There were some images and videos that I, as an adult, felt was quite intense and upsetting, such as those depicting the dead bodies of victims of the Holocaust. I believe it is really important that the horrific details are not held back so we can learn from history, and this is why the museum is one of the most hard-hitting and powerful ones I've visited. However, if you are bringing children along, you may want to bear this in mind as it is quite intense for adults let alone children.
At the end of the tour, you can spend time in a beautiful and peaceful synagogue to reflect on what you have learned.
Overall, the museum was highly enlightening, informative and hard-hitting. We walked away thinking about our visit for a long time afterwards.Written October 31, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Clean toilets and friendly reception.
Parking there, however very easy to get to via public transport by using the 101E bus.Written November 13, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Its name aroused my curiosity and so, without having any idea what is actually inside, I decided to visit it.
My curiosity increased after the lady who sold me ticket, told me, "When you're near the bananas, don't pull on them. And take off your shoes before entering the pool with candies."
When I walked through the black room with the big glowing lollipops and entered the "museum", it was immediately clear to me where I found myself.
There were smaller and larger rooms with various decorations in which you could take pictures of you and get beautiful, unusual photos. There was a room with glittering green walls, or a room with colorful geometric motives on the walls, a pink room with pink trees and a swing in the shape of a large strawberry, a large frame decorated with hanging cups, a pool full of colorful candies, a phone booth like in the Barbie movie...
The visitors had a lot of fun taking pictures in these non-traditional sceneries. Although you can take a selfie here, I recommend going here in pair - one poses, the other takes pictures. The photos will definitely be worth it.
The entrance fee for an adult was 4990 forints.Written November 6, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The guides were retired airmen or mechanics and they were eager to tell us about the aircraft, by heart. Also, the receptionist allowed us to keep our luggage in the lobby and guarded it well. A very enjoyable visit.Written September 21, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Chloe Savage15 contributionsHaven’t seen many reviews on this but it was definitely with the £11 each we spent, i’d be careful if you get dizzy or something but it’s definitely worth an hour or so of your time… some really cool photo opportunities and a chance to use your brainWritten November 13, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Lynsey SWest Timperley, UK103 contributionsThis is a small museum dedicated to Franz Liszt. The museum contains some of his works and his piano and is where he once lived.
If you like classical music it's worth going to, but if you aren't that interested you may find it less so.Written May 31, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

it would have been better if there had been a cafe where i could have got a coffee unless i walked past it and did not see it . great day out cheersWritten October 16, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The museum is about Hungarian agriculture from the neolithic to the beginning of mechanisation.
There is also an exhibition about Hungarian wine in the basement, about forestry, fishing and hunting.
All in all the exhibition is really well made with a lot of information but a bit old school.Written September 3, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
