    The Rock and roll hall of fame is amazing. A must-visit when coming to Cleveland. It brings nostalgia, inspiration, and excitement. One thing though- bring your own lunch because the cafe is not good.

    Fans can easily spend a full day or more here. Plan to spend lots of time on the first floor where the bulk of the exhibits are, then a few hours on the rest of the floors. Incredible stuff!

    I didn't think I would enjoy this very much because I only knew a few artists, but learning about everything from the history of rock and the inspiration and listening to the music is so fascinating!

    Amazing museum even if your not a fan of rock and roll. It set up in a way where you see everything. 6 floors of fun history info and memorabilia. The staff is very enthusiastic. 22 a person.

    I didn’t think I’d enjoy the experience but I was wrong. It’s great to look at some of the bands that shaped the musical landscape. The memorabilia almost makes me feel I was touching the artists!

    If this is your first time, check out all of the 1st floor memorabilia. Be sure to return if one of your favorite artists is the featured exhibit; the museum does a great job on the features.

    You can’t come to Cleveland and not visit the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. One of the best museums around.

    Numerous exhibits tracing the development of modern music. Cast your vote for next year’s class to see some of your favorite musicians join the rest of the legends. The Connor Theater is a must.

    A beautiful building w/a lot of information about the origins of Rock and Roll, although I feel the Native American contribution was not added.

    An amazing collection. A very consuming and emotional experience. A beautiful spot on Lake Erie. Weird building.

    Great place to kill sometime; even if you don't want to drop $20 to get in, you can still see displayes and there is a really cool park behind the muesum! Right on the lake!

    I was here in 1999 last and wasn't sure if I wanted to pay again $22 for this museum. Well, I did and turned out to be a great decision. It's bigger, better, more interactive. Glad I came. Rock on!

    If you're planning on going more than once, consider getting a Membership. Most of the Membership Fee is tax deductible, and pays for itself quickly. It's also great to have when out-of-towners visit!

    Always awesome, always fun, and always something new, so rockers can visit again and again! Keep an eye out for new exhibits. And get KISS in there, for chrissakes!

    If you are a Rock fan this is a must do on your list. Could spend the entire day here getting lost in all the great history and artifacts. The videos produced in house are outstanding.

    Better for teenagers and up. Heavier on classic rock and Rock history more than newer music. Had a Kati Perry outfit.

    In 1995, the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame opened its permanent home, after going without since its inception in 1983. Archiving and preserving music history for nearly 30 years, the Hall is a treasure.

    It's open late on Wednesdays, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to visit. I was able to do a quick run through and go back and do a closer look, in just about two hours.

    If you are a music lover of any style not just rock and roll you need to do this at least once. Things from Michael Jackson's Thriller jacket to alot of handwritten lyrics and a tons of other stuff.

    Do your research before you go. The exhibits change and the museum is very large. When I went, Johnny Cash's tour bus was on display outside. You will see new things each time you visit.

    Be careful buying shirts. Mine twisted so the "Let it Be" wrapped around my side when it should have been square on my chest.

    If you go in the morning, start on the second floor and go up, then back to the first floor. You'll avoid most of the crowd!

    Very nice collection of posters, especially psychadelic ones. There's a few from very famous graphic artists such as Wes Wilson famous for his poster for the Byrds. A must see for graphic designers.
