An architectural masterpiece! Photography is not allowed, so be prepared to stash your camera & phone in the lobby lockers. Take your time exploring each floor of this intricate Art Nouveau home .
Cast iron, steel and glass elements, curved organic lines , meticulous attention to the smallest detail. Discover the beauty of art nouveau in the house of Horta, one of Belgium's best known architects
Worth the visit. Takes about an hour to see all rooms and details. A bit expensive at 10 euro pp. but if you're into architecture this is a must see
Fantastic being able to see how people lived in and with art nouveau. Well worth the visit. Beautiful condition and tons to see.

Lovely little museum , beautiful house and furniture , albeit a bit empty. There's nowhere to sit down there at all so make sure you are well rested before going in :)
Organisers did everything to make it NOT visitors friendly ! The stuff controls when you’re allowed to enter the stairs, where you keep your purse , yelling if someone tries to take a phone pic etc.
Nice museum , inside a Horta house. 7€ for 30-40min of visit, not really cheap . But if you like new art style it is the place to be
The balcony has a pretty great view . Although small, the entrance fee is only 10 euro and makes it a worthwhile visit
Beautiful example of art nouveau. You can relax in the garden after your visit and enjoy the quiet .
The amazing house of the architect and artist Victor Horta . You must visit this place if you are in Bruxelles.
Horta's house is impressive. However, staff is rude, queues are long, rooms are packed with other visitors and price is really high, so that puts a damper on the experience as a whole...
Only really consider visiting if you are an art nouveau property fan. There is nothing about Horta or much more than just walking around a small house. Weekends be prepared to queue for 40mins+
Well worth the money and you must check opening hours, but no photography without special morning tour
Must see in BXl!
Don't let the bland exterior and the queue discourage you - the interiors are truly mesmerizing. It's small, so the whole visit shouldn't take more than 40min. A pity that we can't take photos inside.
Small but really pretty. A bit expensive considering one takes 30mins max to see everything
Absolutely stunning place. You can use museum pass but book online.
Take a stroll through Sint-Gillis afterwards. It's an Art Nouveau gold mine!
Open Tuesday to Sunday, 14h00-17h30, 8€.
Don’t forget to take a walk in the neighbourhood. Full of Art Nouveau.
Interesting place, but you can only see a limited part of the building. Probably the queue takes more time than the visit itself.
Well worth a visit. A beautiful and decadent house.
Stunning example of an art nouveau home .
Very nice museum and low entrance fee :-)
Crazy house, visit not well organized and would need some more explanations.
Must see, shame photos are forbidden
Very well architectured building
No photography allowed. All bags, cameras and coats to be checked into the cloakroom.
Great museum where you can see wonderful examples of Art Moderne.
Art Nouveau style

art nouveau
A bit underwhelming.
Seulement 45 personnes sont autorisées en même temps, vous devrez certainement faire la queue. Photos interdites. Ne manquez pas le chauffe-eau dans la salle de bain ! Le lieu est magnifique !!
Magnifique demeure que Horta a pensé dans les moindres détails pour la rendre fonctionnelle et somptueuse. À voir absolument .
Está muy chulo, es una pasada y un lío de casa. Eso sí, por 4€ de estudiantes muy bien, pero los 8 de la entrada normal me parecen una pasada. No se pueden hacer fotos y te persiguen para comprobarlo.
Une maison qui recèle de nombreuses pièces originales. Une merveille d'architecture . À voir quand on aime ce style !
C'est magnifique!Les guides sont vraiment passionnantes et indispensables.j'ai passé un moment magique.
Niet te missen, ook voor Brusselaars! Heel rare man aan de ingang die iedereen aanmaant alles in lockers achter te skaten, spreekt geen woord Nederlands en stinkt uit zijn mond. Ongemakkelijk!
Magnifique endroit à visiter. Où l'on approche l'intimité de l'architecte .
Il museo Horta è da vedere!!!!
Bellísimo, visita obligada!
Superbe musée
Carino ma mi aspettavo molto di più. Poco curato e pochissime descrizioni. Aperto mar/dom 14-17.30 8 euro intero e 4 ridotto
De tirar o folego!!!!
