Best History museum in Hungary

C	Claudiu on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very confusing place! I've been to hundreds of museums and, apart from Budapest, never felt so lost The room are not numbered, you are provided with a "map" and good luck finding your way with that, I'm sure I missed a lot of the exhibition because the curation is so chaotic In terms of artefacts there is hardly anything here, a few marble elements and some limestone allegedly from the 15th century, I don't know if those are replica or originals The staff hardly know any foreign languages so they will not be able to help with anything, the price of the ticket at 10 freaking euros if you want to take pictures is outrageous
N	Nick Bateman on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very informative and clear exhibitions and information on the history of the castle. Not the clearest layout with the entrance on -2 level and the maps showing each exhibition up on 1 and 2 levels. The whole thing feels like it peters out as you head upstairs but the gothic statue collection and the ‘1000 years of Budapest’ exhibit upstairs are worth it.
J	Josh on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Interesting to get some information about the city but it was a bit of information ocerload which made the story of the city hard to follow. Perhaps this is just the nature of the city's history but it felt a bit all over the place. Didn't look around the rest of the museum other than the Budapest history section but it seemed like quite a large museum so a reasonable entry fee (~5GBP)
S	Simon-Pierre Basset-Prémont on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I'm sure the Palace part is very beautiful but for lack of sufficient explanation, I missed the guided tour, paid for, they don't want me to move on to the next one, allow me to come back, or reimburse me. Scandalous. The place is a maze, in the bad sense of the word, you can easily miss rooms. So I'm evaluating my experience, not the place.
C	Carlo Colucci on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Amazing place, MUST VISIT. So much history.
k	keith poling on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Fascinating place to visit The castle has been built destroyed and rebuilt so many times in history and they are rebuilding it again
D	Dimitar Dimitrov on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Average museum. A couple of exhibitions, without many interesting artifacts/items. Not very tourist friendly. Most of the text there is in hungarian, navigation helpers are non-existent and many of the rooms are locked or temporarily closed. Budapest has better other museums for visit.
J	Jess Shaw on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Interesting museum with lots of exhibitions. Some of the exhibition's on the upper floors were closed which was a bit of a shame. Would have also liked to see more royalty exhibitions. Overall not bad for the price we paid. They also had student tickets for under 26 year olds which was a bonus
