    I’ve travelled all the way from Barcelona just to visit some Adolf Loos architecture, and it worth it! This Villa is an incredible exercice of layout composition, one of a kind. Our guide (Yann I can recall) was really good at explaining for archis and non archis the virtues of the design, he seemed really moved by it. As other comments say, be sure to book your tickets in advance. The groups are luckly really small and tickets get sold out quickly. The only point I didn’t like was that taking pictures inside is forbiden; I’ve been to several top houses like Ville Savoye in Paris, Robin house in Chicago, Stahl house in LA… and I was always allowed to take my own pictures, of course respecting the timings of the tour and in the moments when the guide said we could. It’s a little bit rude in my opinion to force people to buy your own books in order to have memories of all the details and corners of this amazing design; it’s an old fashioned decision at least.

    Architectural comments have been said in other reviews other than to say well worth the visit for architects, artists, interior designers etc. Practicalities are you need to book, you can't just turn up and wander in. It's only open on certain days although open on Saturdays and Sundays. All visits are guided tours (about 90 mins) and small groups of seven hence quickly booked up. We had no choice but to take tour in Czech even though five of us spoke English. There are English tours available but times didn't suit. A 1 or 2 tram takes you to a stop beside the villa. In any event highly recommended.

    An amazingly restored villa bei Viennese architect Adolf Loos. The guiding lady was just amazing and gave an excellent tour through the whole house. Check in at the neighbouring entrance building to start the tour. Booking in advance is required.

    This villa is for all lovers of architecture and especially the functionalist one. It is a masterpiece by the famous modernist architect Adolf Loos. The villa is exceptional with its austere architecture and perfectly thought-out interior, which must be seen live. The tours are done in small groups, so it is necessary to buy a ticket in advance. It is ideal to read something about the villa, to know its history and the history of its author before you come. Photography is prohibited.

    Bauhaus, was ist das ?? Für alle die es nicht wissen anbei Bilder. Für alle Kenner ist die Villa Müller fester Bestandteil einer Sightseeing Tour durch Prag. Mit Bildern innen kann ich leider nicht dienen,da dort nicht photographirt werden darf und ich das selbstverständlich respektiere Sehr zu empfehlen

    Was there at an English tour that lasted one hour. The guide was very polite and the house was in a marvelous condition with many original fittings. You might need to enjoy or have read more about the history regarding the house to enjoy it at its fullest. As a architecture student I was really fascinated. You where not allowed to take pictures inside the villa.

    A great place to visit. Especially if you are interested in architecture.

    Excellent lady guide, tours at 11am and 3pm also in English. Not only for architects or architecture junkies - this villa represents the genius loci of 1930s.

    It would have been fantastic to get in. Be warned you need to reserve a visit. I guve the place 3 stars because of the rude vlerk that was offended that we came past on the odd chance of getting in for a tour.

    Excellent guided tour in well kept interiors in an Adolf Loos classic building. Unfortunately indoor pictures are prohibited, which is quite unusual in famous architecture nowadays.

    You can only visit with a guided tour and have to buy tickets in advance as spots are limited. The tour is great: engaging, interesting, knowledgeable guide. The Villa is absolutely gorgeous and you will learn many cool facts about its specifics and its inhabitants.

    If you want to experience one of the most influential villas of Modernizm then this is the place to go. The awesome guide took us around in all the spaces that are possible to experience, with great and concise descriptions.

    Das ist ist ein wirklich erstaunlicher Ort. Eher unscheinbar von Außen, "Form follows Function." , dafür umso spektakulärer Innen. ABER: Es werden nur Gruppen bis zu 8 Personen zugelassen. Es gibt nur Tschechische oder Englische Führungen, aber eine gute Unterlage auf Deutsch. Hilfreich ist, wenn man sich im Verwaltungsgebäude, wo es auch die Tickets gibt in einem Nebenraum den Film zur Restaurierung auf Englisch zeigen lässt. Als Deutsche in der Tschechischen Führung, kam in diese leider etwas lieblos vor. Trotz einer kleinen Gruppe könnte der Führer nur wenig auf individuelle Fragen eingehen bzw. hat uns als Fremde nicht gefragt, was uns speziell interessiert. Das haben wir in vielen anderen Museen besser erlebt. Trotzdem bleibt es einen klare Empfehlung.
