    Cool photos, doesn't deserve the name "museum". It was an exhibit of one artist in one room.

    Fantastic exhibitions and a vast archive of books to browse - a treat if you're a fan of photography!

    Great museum about the rock history on Iceland, big guitar collection from important icelandic rock bands and exclusive collection of costumes and play instruments test area

    Very small museum - the main exhibit was slightly underwhelming (especially for the price), but I was pleasantly surprised by the archives available on interactive screens. They're well organised and cover a lot of different themes and periods of history, in a way that the other museums rarely could. Not sure if I'd recommend it unless you're a photographer or have a real interest in history, but if you are, it's worth a look!

    I’m sorry, but to charge 1000 krona (10 USD) for entry to one room with no more than 20 photographs is disgraceful, even by Icelandic standards. The best photographs weren’t even inside, but immediately outside the museum doors. Doesn’t take more than 5 minutes to view the photograph collection. Do yourself a favor and spend the extra 1000 ISK on a nicer meal at one of Reykjavik’s many fantastic restaurants.

    Always good exhibitions, it costs now 1000kr (8€) to get in. A bit little.

    Tiny, not free any longer (1000kr). Definitely NOT worth your time and money.

    The exhibition that was on at the time of my visit was also not good photography in my subjective opinion.

    This museum is way too small, not worth the 1000 fee. Great photos but tiny collection

    Nice but rather small. Just FYI, it is no longer free. The exhibit was 1000 kr.

    Really great for a free photo exhibit! I really enjoyed looking through some of the books in the book shop (like Spessi Location).

    Free admission, so a good place to drop in if you happen to get stuck in a surprise thunderstorm and need shelter from the wind. Seems like they change exhibits fairly regularly. Up on the 6th(?) floor.

    Cool library. Came in for a special photo exhibition which wasn't very good, however the permanent photos they have hanging around the staircase were fantastic. Take the lift up to the sixth floor and walk down to see them all. There are toilets and free wifi.

    This museum is free so it's worth walking through. The photos are pretty cool. You could walk through in 10-15 minutes.
