Away from the usual tourist, route but easy to get to on the subway then a short walk. It is an incredible collection of art and antiquities. There is a new section which is a beautiful light and modern structure linked to the old original building which is built around a peaceful, light-filled courtyard modelled on a Venetian palazzo. Well worth the effort to get there.

Eclectic, and something for everybody. Wish we could've taken pictures - but not allowed. It was a little hard to find, but well worth it. (took the train & then walked)

My wife and I visited the Gardener - and it was just stellar. From the new Piano building, with the lovely living room to the original building itself, we were enthralled with the museum. The outdoor cafe was delicious, and affordable (unlike many museum cafes) and the art collection is wonderful. Quirky, well thought out, and so charming. I think our favorite pieces were the John Singer Sargents (especially El Jaleo) but there were many stunning pieces as well. The staff was friendly and unobtrusive. Overall a great experience.
