Do not visit the museum on a Monday
TripAdvisor traveler rating: 1 of 5 stars
We visited the museum on a Monday - which is the day the Metropolitan Art Museum is closed. It rained and we stood in line for half an hour to enter. The spiral is closed until the end of June 2012 in...

Half of it was closed and we still had to pay
TripAdvisor traveler rating: 2 of 5 stars
Most of the museum was empty with big woodden boxes scattered around. They still charged the full price to see probably less than a third of it.

Great building
TripAdvisor traveler rating: 4 of 5 stars
Unfortunately the ramps were closed due to installations but as a result we were charged half price. A good way to spend a few hours and the building itself is wonderful.

They should change exhibits on the day they are closed
TripAdvisor traveler rating: 2 of 5 stars
On the day we went the spiral ramp and half of the foyer was closed as they were changing the exhibitions - this was a disappointment.
The exhibits that were open were well displayed.

Iconic building, inconsistent collection

This iconic Frank Lloyd Wright building contains a number of works that could rightfully be considered to belong at the pinnacle of achievement in modern art. However, why these should be shoved away...

My favorite museum in New York
TripAdvisor traveler rating: 5 of 5 stars
The Guggenheim is wonderful because of the unique way it displays installations - on the spiraling ramp! The museum is also small enough that you can see everything in one visit. The free audio guide...

Interesting, but not all to my taste
TripAdvisor traveler rating: 3 of 5 stars
We queued in the rain for 30 minutes to get in. When we finally got to the ticket counter, we were informed that only half the gallery was open as they were changing exhibits. To be fair, the...
