Boris ПортугальскийJune 13, 2013Beautifuly decorated, with a lot of amazing objects on the exposure. Don't miss the Greek Portfolio foto collection. On the roof there is a nice open air restaurant.
Dave BriggsNovember 27, 2015The Benaki Museum is a must-see for any visitor to Athens who only has a few days in the city. It offers a condensed view of Greek history and culture spread over 4 levels. Nice cafe as well!!
One of the best place to explore great exhibitions or just have a break in the museum's restaurant. !!! Good for families too... The exhibitions change almost every 1-2 months.
Katerina👑🔨💍 IeromonachouNovember 12, 2018Don’t miss the Moralis extended exhibition with the guided tour. Makes all the difference. U get to know the man within the painter.
Sidira KuriaJune 20, 2019To be honest,I've never visited the museum as a museum!But I've been here for a couple of theatre performances in summer,in it's inside open air yard and the feeling was amazing! Also used for events.
Spiros TheocharisNovember 4, 2018Even though I find the ticket price a bit expensive, the displayed artifacts of centuries of Greek fully compensated it.
Do not confuse with Benaki Museum historical collection on V. Sofias St. This building hosts temporary collections of art, photography, architecture - separate ticket charged for each exhibition.
Mara MdiJanuary 19, 2015great building that can travel the visitor through time. There are always great installations at the exteriors. Do not forget to check each month for seminars and events- Leigh SwartzJune 27, 2013Every last Friday of the month, do not miss Open Coffee, a great tech abd entrepreneurial event!
There is a gift shop selling inventive objects by local artists.
Del MarFebruary 23, 2013Greece through the eyes of a foreign photographer living here...Beautiful exhibition!Unexpected objects and people get a leading role! Charles Weber...
Doulamas the grate . Just go to the museum to visit this
Bridget HealyMay 13, 2013Athens' window on contemporary art and design, this outpost is well worth a visit.
Andreas FanaropoulosFebruary 2, 2016Amazing building. Hosts great exhibitions. The store is fantastic for presents
goschkoDecember 1, 2017Entrance: 6 Euro. Exhibition: one, a few photos of buildings, not more than 60-70 sq.m, only in Greek. Gift shop: pretty good, but a bit overpriced. To sum up: not worth the money.
Fazal BahardeenDecember 1, 2011The Islamic art gallery has artifacts from over 13 centuries. The glistening ceramics from Egypt &Iraq in the 1st gallery are wonderful. Read more
A place to visit even if you at not that much into art
Alexandros AlexApril 29, 2010Presentations are "open" ... after that, join us for a "coffee" at the bar ... That's a full "open-coffee" meeting ;)
The cafe is spacey and amply lit. Worth visiting the museum store.
AlexandrosNovember 11, 2011White ceiling in the auditorium? And it is supposed to be the element of useful design?
- dooxJune 5, 2010Benaki museum cafe: minimalistic or miserable? Hard to decide. However, cold and detached is for sure. Don't get greek coffee here. They don't make it the right (briki) way. Overpriced too.
VoloGratis.orgJanuary 18, 2014Al Roof Garden del Museo si mangia benissimo e con una vista spettacoare sul Partenone. Il costo di una cena si aggira sui € 25 a persona. Molto romantico. Read more

GeorgiaOctober 31, 2013Top in contemporaryart in Athens. Γιατί να μην έχει κάθε μέρα 1000 επισκέπτες; Έρχεσαι και σου φτιάχνει το κέφι. Πέμπτη δωρεάν είσοδος.
Elly Kyriaki PapapostolouJanuary 18, 2014Ωραίες οι εκθέσεις των Massimo Listri και Γ. Τσαρούχη, τα βραβεία αρχιτεκτονικής μια από τα ίδια, μέτριος καφές, φρέσκα κουλουράκια, αργό ή ανύπαρκτο wifi και ένα πωλητήριο που χρειάζεται ανανέωση.
