National Museum of the Palazzo di Venezia

Magnificent Palazzo. It will take your breath away. If you like tile floors, each room has a different pattern. And the ceilings! Another wow.

Superb building with an amazing history, from the Venetian Embassy, to the Hapsburg Embassy to Mussolini's center of government and office. It was outstanding views and rooms. I was a little disappointed because the very large rooms, e.g. Mussolini's office, was stripped and it is a huge empty room... but amazing regardless. I was told that the balcony he spoke from, which you can see through glass doors, has a key lock to symbolize that time has passed and will not come back.

Loved it, the garden, the decorative room, the art. And not so many people makes you more relax to see everything.

Access to the courtyard is free, a nice quiet place.

Museum ticket is combined with the ticket to the top level of Vittoriano. Neither are very interesting.

The museum is pretty boring. Some minor terracotta models by Bernini.

The garden is free to enter. It has chairs and is a nice place to sit and relax.
The museum has interesting exhibits and was worth entering to see Mussolinis rooms.
However, there is a lot of unused space, which makes it feel that you are not getting a full experience. I was pleased to have gone, but left feeling somewhat unsatisfied.
The route is poorly laid out. Corridors lead to dead ends, and you had to double back without knowing where to go next.
Staff were welcoming and helpful.
There was no queue. The ticket also gives you entrance to the Central Museum of the Risorgimento, which is ten minutes walk away.

We were not impressed with the first couple of halls, but we were really impressed by the end. Amazing halls and expositions. The gardens are very quiet and you can sit there and relax for a bit before returning to the crowded streets of Rome.

Admission for Europeans 18-26 years for €2 (ticket in a package with two attractions in the building opposite). Beautiful exhibits, a view of the garden from the terrace, free toilets and friendly service.

An undiscovered cool and quiet respite amongst the hustle and bustle of the streets of Rome. Access to the courtyard gardens is free and a perfect place to sit for a while on the shaded benches and relax while walking between the many tourist hot spots.

You can pay to enter the church, but you can see into the church from the gardens and some of the mosaic stone work is displayed on the walls of the garden.
