G	Giorgio Bonfiglio on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great! I would have appreciated signage in English, but the explainer cards were good too. Precious collection, a must go for electrotechnical nerds.
L	Louise Woodhams on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Quirky, fun museum with friendly, helpful staff in a beautiful very old building with fantastic original features. Exhibits have some old school interactive elements. Cheap entrance fee (cash only)
A	Alex on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Awesome electrotechnical museum. Nice displays from history including appliances, lighting, iron curtain and bird protection. My favourite had to be the first electric car! There were yellow pages in each room which gave a general English description. I enjoyed it even though not everything had an English description below - I could generally work it out or used google translate’s photo feature. The people there were super friendly and spoke English. Very reasonable price at 800HUF each. Accepts card payment.
F	Finley Marbury on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very cool to see so much old tech (electric motors, transformers, power meters) so well preserved. They also had good English translation sheets for each exhibition. And the ladies that run the place were nice enough to personally walk us around and explain everything.
J	John Chrastka on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The exhibits are interesting for both hobbyists and lay people alike. The docents are very kind and knowledgeable. English printed guides for each room.
D	Diane Dowling on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A very quirky museum full of fascinating exhibits. Staff were very friendly and helpful!
I	Ioana Mohanu on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I loved it, you don't need more than 2 hours, they have an English text support because everything else is in Hungarian. Some of the expos are interactive. It makes you think how far we've come since electricity was invented.
M	Marta Krzeminska on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Looking for your perfect Soviet fix? Want to feel followed and as if everything you do is probably breaking the rules? This is the place to visit! Mid-size exhibition that reminds you of primary school trips, where most of the time u don't follow what's happening, and wake up your attention only when there is something to touch. There are laminated cards with explanations, including funny translations. It is interesting, but mostly if you already know what you're looking at. You enter for a mere 800 forints and you leave feeling heavy and depressed with that familiar sense of having disappointed your parents by not learning enough about physics. On the plus side: it made me want to binge YouTube videos about electrical current, amps, and watts. So, while I didn't learn anything inside, maybe I will learn something as a second or third order effect of that visit. Not 5 stars, because of the quality, but not 1 because at the same time it's almost exactly what I expected and came for.
