Awesome architecture outside & inside. Very well curated collection of contemporary art. Only downside is the no photo of art policy. Quite surprising it applies even to their permanent exhibitions.
Rafael MarinSeptember 2, 2015
This is one of the best museums I've ever visited. It's organic, like an animal, and you travel inside it and flow through its architecture. Unforgettable experience.
Noah WeissAugust 27, 2016
A borderline religious experience for any architecture (Gehry's masterpiece) or art lover (massive Serra collection, Koons, Warhol, etc). Takes at least 6 hours for the inside and outside.

The building is absolutely amazing, inside and out, and worth the price of admission itself, but aside from a couple paintings in the ‘masters’ room I have zero appreciation for the art though. 🖼
eric bornemannJune 28, 2018
Beautiful building but aside from the incredible Serra’s, you are at the mercy of the special exhibits, wish there was more of a permanent collection to explore. PS Koons puppy needs to go.

World famous modern art museum. The outside is unique but go inside for €16 and watch black paint dry!
Solomon R. Guggenheim MuseumAugust 13, 2013
Designed by architect Frank Ghery, Guggenheim Bilbao has been hailed as “the greatest building of our time.” Explore all 24,000 square meters, of which 11,000 are dedicated to exhibition space.
MarinaDecember 7, 2015
Incredible space, a truly awe-inspiring building. Even if you're not a contemporary art aficionado, exploring this architectural masterpiece is a real treat
Hugo CostaMarch 9, 2019
Everything you’ve heard is true. It is an obvious, mandatory stop in Bilbo, and for a reason, for it’s not common to see such a collection of masterpieces inside of a stunning marvel of architecture.

In the opening scenes of The World Is Not Enough (1999) we see establishing shots of the Guggenheim Museum as James Bond recovers $5m from "La Banque Suisse de L'Industrie" Read more

The most beautiful building I've ever seen - both inside and out. We saw some really stunning art. Was mostly empty at noon on a Thursday - what a dream. The bar serves great pintxos too.
Marianne NJanuary 7, 2015
Walk around the building, it's incredible from every angle. If you go inside, a word of warning for those afraid of heights!
Damian BayonaJune 29, 2019
A walk around the outside is a must. Free audio guides on the inside to complete the tour.
Monica DesaiAugust 27, 2016
Wow. 7 hours later, blown away by both the indoors and outdoor art. Allot a full day for this one
Frau TaiApril 7, 2015
.gorgeous art space. perfect source of inspiration. come early, when it's not crowded.
LanaJune 27, 2018
Amazing museum outside and inside loved the Chagall exhibit. Ticket are 13€ for adults but for student 7€ the gift store was reasonably priced
Diego ReynosoJuly 29, 2016
With visiting just to marvel at the architecture, exhibitions like any modern art museum are hit and miss
Roger DashSeptember 8, 2015
ALL THE EXHIBITS, especially Serra. Make sure to get the audio tour and bring a pair of 3.5mm headphones. Buy tickets online prior too!
johnlemonJanuary 16, 2018
The museum building itself is impressive, especially the interior. The exhibitions were underwhelming. Buying the tickets online is a good idea.
Sinem GudumMay 17, 2019
i think it was over-rated in terms of art; however it has the best photographic spots in bilbao and i think it was wortj the visit.
Benjamin JohanssonAugust 7, 2016
Come here at 5 or 6 pm. It's not as crowded and you'll have three or two hours to enjoy this lovely museum.
noom supboonrodApril 14, 2017
Exterior and all sculpture around is a must and incredible, for inside exhibition, pls chk from location calendar to match your personal appreciation
Andrew TaylorNovember 18, 2013
This was the coolest museum I've ever been to! Always great exhibits and very cool giant puppy in the front made up of millions of flowers. Seen in the James Bond film The World Is Not Enough
Nic ComleyFebruary 11, 2019
Very much worth a trip but the biggest attraction is the building itself and sculptures
Steve CuratiAugust 19, 2016
Such an amazing building, inside as well as out. Your kids will grab the audio tour guides so get enough for everyone!
Tatyana BunakovaNovember 25, 2022
Stunning architecture by Frank Gehry with fascinating modern exhibitions inside. Love at first sight. Truly recommend.
Solveig OskAugust 8, 2011
The museum building itself is a beautiful place to walk round and explore, from both inside and outside. The 5 metre tall flower dog outside is one of my favourite things on the planet (!!!) However, Read more

A museum to must visit. Beautiful architecture and space management inside. The free audio guide was very useful.
Fred WilsonSeptember 20, 2014
fantastic museum. all the exhibits on display when we visited were outstanding
Steven AndrophyFebruary 8, 2015
One of my favorite museums, and not only for the building. The collections were fantastic and the outdoor installments make for great photos.
Jac BXLOctober 15, 2015
Worth the Trip to Bilbao: not for the exhibitions but for the building and how it transformed that part of the city.

Modern art, always great exhibitions. The architecture of the building. Must visit in Bilbao
Guillaume RooxJuly 16, 2013
If you are short on cash you can try and take an audio guide for free. The deposit box is just after the entrance at your left side. Search one that is your language by pressing play.
MichaEla JežkováOctober 19, 2013
One of the most amazing museums I've been. Incredible space, fascinating art, rgeous exhibition of Antoni Tápies. And the Puppy, of course!
Anya BruwerJune 29, 2017
Definitely worth a visit! However, I was more impressed with the museum itself than the art.
Artem RJanuary 13, 2018
It is not allowed to take pictures or film inside. Even on a smartphone and without flashlight.
Jonathan CamileAugust 1, 2017
Great museum! The building itself is very impressive and the permanent collection is breath taking.
Emilien HoetMay 27, 2019
Most extraordinary building I’ve ever visited. Great temporary exhibition from Jenny Holzer!
PaulSeptember 26, 2012
Fantastic museum. Extremely inspiring architecture. Great permanent exhibition. Do not miss the introduction to this place on your audio guide.
Stephy BJuly 25, 2012
This place is amazing! Beautiful architecture, incredible works of art and bubbles by Anish Kapour, what else could you want? Oh, and did I mention sunshine :)
Vincent RamosSeptember 2, 2011
Gehry's building is a work of art in itself, but the exhibitions inside are absolutely worth a look: I saw Cai Guo-Qiang's incredible retrospective here in 2010.

English tour of the museum available at 17:15. Arrive 30 minutes prior to reserve your place - this comes with the standard ticket purchase
IlariaNovember 1, 2013
The only thing it worths the visit is the building..and I am an art historian! Big delusion!
Dante MoensJuly 9, 2018
One of the most beautifully museums I've seen! Really accessible art, in a magnificent building!
cnelson ︻╦╤─April 4, 2019
No surprise. The building is better than the art inside.
Lionel PusingDecember 20, 2014
Nice place for contemporary arts and the likes. Students get to avail 50% discount after presenting valid student id and audio guide is free.
Kayleigh HarringtonJanuary 2, 2018
A magnificent place. Architecture, sculpture, all very inspiring.
noom supboonrodApril 16, 2017
Don't expect 30minutes to walk around , there r so much more interesting construction / statue and bridge around , you will luv it
Marcus HanssonAugust 7, 2014
Better than expected. But the exterior is the main attraction.
