C	Credible Critic on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Nice museum to highlight the contribution of Haarlem's native son, Frans Hals, and his contemporaries. Its collection was divided into two distinct areas: classic and modern. Despite its size, it does a good job depicting both eras quite well. A good walk between the two buildings. It is easy to spend 2 or 3 hours to cover both sites. The staff is helpful and knowledgeable. Quite a good find in Haarlem.
P	Polina on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is such a great museum. Its collection is not very big, but it’s very informative and the atmosphere is on point. It has a beautiful peaceful garden, room where your kids can draw, interactive elements and (!) real plush couches, to enjoy art with comfort.
C	Chienwen Chen on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is a good museum. There are a lot of paintings and pictures inside. The ticket is also valid for their another museum. There is also a beautiful garden in the center of building. There is a locker and toilet. Museum card holder is free to enter. The staff are also nice.
L	Liat Weinstock on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I visited only one of the 2 locations of the Frans Hals museum. I visited Hof. It is a beautiful museum displaying the works of artists that operated (not necessarily born) in Haarlem during the 17th century, with the most famous one of which is Frans Hals upon whom the museum is named! The museum was established in 1862 and it is located in a former “Oude Mannenhuis” which is what could be referred to as a retirement home these days. The structure is well preserved with beautiful original blue-delft and beautiful halls. The exhibition is also further decorated with beautiful flower arrangements which absolutely adds to the unique atmosphere this museum offers.
R	Robin Irwin on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A well maintained museum where they took the energy to make each room a unique experience. Fresh flowers are beautifully displayed in the rooms and the building has some interesting stained glass windows and designs. The garden is nice and quiet and a lovely place to recover some energy and of course the museum's paintings are of world class quality and worth a visit.
J	Jennifer Smith on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ For the high price paid, I was hoping it would be a bit bigger TBH. There are definitely lovely art pieces inside but I was only there for about an hour. Nice patio garden in the back. Photos allowed. Must book a ticket online. There is an audio guide included which I found very helpful to further illustrate the paintings’ histories, although there is English translation throughout.
S	Samantha Sile on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A good musuem with a fair amount to see. They have nice examples of old fireplaces and a vintage dolls house. Some scattered modern art as well.
E	Elena Oltrop on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Real art gem in Haarlem. Small museum with very pleasant atmosphere and great art collection.
