The museum is to die for. The exclusive store was very nice. This was part of my Birthday celebration and it really did not disappoint! We stopped at the cafe as we were leaving for a nice drink. If you love Gucci, you need to see it! read more

I had such an incredible experience at Gucci thanks to Eduardo.He went above and beyond to help me find some truly special pieces, and his attention to detail, product knowledge, and genuine enthusiasm made the experience unforgettable. He wasn't just assisting with a purchase -- he was curating an experience. He anticipated what I might love, found hard-to-get items, and made sure every detail was perfect. His professionalism and warmth truly represent the best of Gucci. Employees like him are the reason I'll always return. Gucci is fortunate to have such a dedicated and exceptional team member. read more

I didn't even know about the Gucci museum prior to having lunch at Gucci Osteria but was absolutely delighted to find out about it. My husband and I both really enjoyed walking through the clothing archive and especially the handbag archive. Make sure to leave yourself time to shop in the Gucci on the main level as well. They have special items that you can't get anywhere else. read more

If you're in Florence and have a little time to spare, the Gucci Museum (Gucci Garden) is definitely worth a stop. It's right in Piazza della Signoria, so it's easy to find and perfect for a quick visit. The museum is small but packed with interesting exhibits that take you through the history and evolution of Gucci, from classic vintage pieces to more modern, cutting-edge designs. The space itself is beautiful--very chic and modern--and it's easy to walk through without feeling overwhelmed. I loved seeing how the brand has changed over the years while staying true to its roots. They also incorporate some cool contemporary art installations that make it feel fresh and unique. The staff were welcoming and happy to answer questions, and the boutique inside has some really fun, exclusive items. If you have time afterward, the Gucci Osteria is a great spot for a coffee or a snack and adds a nice touch to the visit. Even if you're not super into fashion, it's an inspiring look at creativity and craftsmanship. It's stylish, a little unexpected, and a fun way to experience a piece of Italian culture. read more

Chic Outdoor Dining with Style and Flavor Gucci Giardino in Florence is a charming outdoor restaurant tucked beside the Gucci Garden museum. It's the perfect spot to relax and take in the beauty of the square. I started with their Espresso Martina--a sophisticated cocktail made with Zacapa 23 rum infused with tonka bean, Rum Matusalem, vanilla, chocolate bitters, coffee, and foamer. Smooth, bold, and beautifully presented. For lunch, I had their Italian twist on a Croque-Monsieur--essentially a French-inspired grilled ham and cheese, elevated with rich ingredients and expert technique. Absolutely delicious. Service was a little slow, but that's part of the relaxed pace in Europe. I wasn't in a hurry and actually enjoyed the slower tempo--it gave me time to enjoy the people-watching and ambiance of the square. Highly recommend for a stylish, leisurely lunch with great cocktails and a side of Florentine charm. read more

Unfortunately we were disappointed with our experience at the outdoor Gucci patio. Maybe we had high expectations, but this is no more than sitting in the square with some bushes and umbrellas around you. Although the menu was dapper and it was nice to sit in the shade, the drinks were a let down as well. Overall I wouldn't recommend taking the time to stop here, head to the Four Seasons for a drink instead and you will be far more pleased. read more

Oh this was so much fun! You don't have to be a fashionista to appreciate the fun displays they have inside. It's such a colorful and refreshing take on a museum. They do a great job of showcasing the rich history of this fashion house in an interactive and alluring way. I really enjoyed the room completely filled with purses. It seemed to go on forever and who doesn't want to go drool over those beauties. The gown room was fantastic as well. I loved that they give you the opportunity to study them up close and to see all their intricate details. The museum is pretty small and we were able to do everything pretty fast (1 hour or so). Great spot to get away from the heat, crowds or rain for a bit. read more

Not sure why I never posted this review but here it is. After having dinner at the Gucci Osteria da Massimo Bottura our waiter gave us two tickets to the museum. Two days later I went to check it out and was very impressed with the collections on display. The exhibit showcases different styles from the Gucci timeline. So many vintage pieces that I never saw or knew about. Gucci is one of my most favorite designer brands so I really enjoyed to see the story and history behind every piece. The first floor is a very unique Gucci store that you can actually make purchases from. Clothes, purses, luggage, home decor and more. Things you can only find here and not in other Gucci boutiques. read more

The NY Times recommended this garden with an on -site café and a terrace overlooking Florences prettiest piazza. I got in line in front and managed to ignore the beggars. We spent about an hour here very creative and well done. Exhibits displayed Gucci collections over the years in very creative ways set to music. The colorful & engaging exhibits were on two floors. There wasn't a place to sit down so we had to keep moving. Interesting and unlike anything we've seen before. On the first floor we saw three rooms of Gucci Garden Collection. read more

They have a QR code that explains the two stories of fun escapes. My daughter and wife had a blast in the Exciting different rooms. The commentary of each room added color to why The rooms were set up. It is immediately next to the Palazzo Vecchio and is worth visiting. read more

Very well done museum, and I now have a new appreciation for how incredible Gucci is. They push boundaries, incorporate nature and loud colors, go for interesting models, and push boundaries.

So fun!! We had a great time in the museum and all the animated features, finds and clothing. My son had fun in each room and was wanting more. Crazy how many shoes are in that room! It is definitely worth the quick $8 euros to take a tour. Unfortunately, the bar/restaurant was not open when we were there, which would had been nice to sit in the AC and enjoy cocktail :) read more

Gucchi Garden is so Gucchi. Fans of the fancy and fashionable Double G brand will love visiting this museum located in the Palazzo della Mercanzia (dating back to 1337) in Florence just steps from the world-famous Galleria degli Uffizi on Piazza della Signoria. The Gucci brand was created in Florence in 1921 by Guccio Gucci so it makes sense that the company create a beautiful exhibit space in the city. The location couldn't be better. Tickets are 8€ per person and provide access to 6 rooms of exhibitions and art on 2 floors full of creations from current creative director Alessandro Michele as well pieces from the past by Tom Ford and others. The vintage pieces were the most interesting to me bringing a mix of memories and awe while the futuristic nature of Gucci design continues to scream modern Guccification. The iconic Gucci web stripe is hard to miss; however, many of the dresses, jackets, shoes, and luggage on display are uniquely Gucci in other ways. There are many ways to spend 8€ in Firenze and lots of museums to check out which means Gucci Garden doesn't rise to level of "must-see," except for diehard fans, but the brand museum was well-done and I'm a fan because it's all Gucci at Gucci Garden. read more

We stopped here in Florence as I love everything Gucci and Massimo Bottura. He is the ultimate chef who brings good food to everyone . Massimo continues to inspire his fast cars/slow food movement and this location will make you smile. I love all the colors and the cafe is so classy, typical "Fiorentino". The Gucci Garden is a beautiful shop with items only available here in Florence(no where else) and a gallery that costs 8 euros to enter. There is also a Michelin star restaurant on the premises. We enjoyed our cappuccino in the cafe as the outdoor seating was closed due to rain. It's worth a stop if you're in Florence ! read more

Came here a year ago while on a vacation trip in Florence. The entrance is in the Piazza so great location. Walking in, the display of all the Gucci items are beautiful and there's alot of limited edition items here - bags, shoes etc. The place is divided into two areas - one for shopping and another for the Gucci Garden. The Gucci Garden has free tickets for students so you just need to bring your student ID. The Gucci Garden is an unique visit. Check it out, it's fun! read more

Definitely visit this museum/store when in Florence. Very interesting museum of vintage Gucci clothes and accessories . The first floor is the store and cafe. The store carry's gucci items that can only be bought at a Gucci Gardens store. Very pricey but a must if you love Gucci. Second and third floor is the museum that costs 6 or 8 euros (can't remember the exact cost). We did not eat at the cafe but have heard great comments about it. read more

Had the absolute best experience here and wonderful customer service. Came here to check out the store and met the most wonderful SA Yoshiko. She was so patient with showing me every piece I was interested even though she knew I wasn't planning to buy a bag that day. I told her I wanted to spend a few days thinking and would be back in a few days since we had reservations at the restaurant. Yet, she spent over an hour talking with me about the store and Gucci. When my husband and I came back 2 days later to see the museum before dinner she was there waiting at the door for us! She then provided us with free tickets to the museum and even though the tour is self guided she joined us and gave us a private guided tour throughout the entire museum. We got learn about all the inspo behind each exhibition and she took pictures of us throughout. When the tour was done she left us to go through it alone and met us back down at the store. When we came down she already had all the bags I expressed interest in ready for me to view. She answered all my questions again and in the end I chose a lovely bag and wallet exclusive to the shop. After our purchase she walked us to the restaurant and even pulled out chairs for us to sit while we wait. And then even though the store was closed she waited with us until the restaurant opened. If that's not above and beyond idk what is. Thank you to Yoshiko and Gucci gardens for such a wonderful experience. read more

A museum from a luxury fashion line?! I only own a couple of Gucci pumps and haven't followed too much of the clothing line, nor have been that interested in their handbag line, but I figured, it's only in Florence, might as well check it out. I went on our last night, a Thursday night after 8pm and was able to take advantage of their discounted admission. It was reduced to 5 Euro. And what's notable is that 50% of ticket proceeds goes to maintaining the city's art treasures. The museum has excellent lighting and showcases the different collections and notable one of a kind items such as a car and golf set, and even exquisite gowns worn at award shows. It's several floors and is an easy walk through. The book store and cafe are housed on the bottom floor. No photos are allowed though I saw one couple taking photos. Maybe if it was Chanel or Louis Vuitton I would have liked it more, but I would say it's a solid 3ish stars. It's a nice change of pace (and more relatable) from the typical museums in Europe. read more

Located next to the Gucci Museo, the Gucci Icon store carries books and Gucci products not found in the regular Gucci stores. Being Gucci, prices are not cheap. But for me, I considered when I'd be in Florence again, and decided to splurge and buy a few things. The SAs were very friendly and not at all snobbish. They wrapped all of my purchases and gave extra gift bags for my purchases. I'm pleased with my purchases and every time I use my Gucci Museo purchases, I'll remember my visit to Florence. read more

I heard great things about this exhibit but failed to realize it changes and the current exhibit during Fall 2019 sucks. There are about 3 rooms on 2 floors with content and 1 of those rooms on each floor is displaying time filler video (i.e. old runway shows). The other two rooms have interesting pieces with the majority coming from recent collections. This was disappointing though because it was clothing I had seen in showrooms 1-2yrs ago and I didn't have to pay 8 euros then. And the quality of some of the garments presented was lacking. I would think they would want to showcase relatively new pieces in good condition but there were relatively recent items that had significant damage or wear. TLDR: skip this exhibit the next rotation might be better. read more

I'm a huge fan of Gucci but I thought this was simply okay. I only went because students get in for free with a student ID, but I don't think I would pay to go see it.

Guccio Gucci's first store open in 1921 in Florence. I appreciate the history of fashion and since I had some time to kill, I check out the Gucci Museum. (I probably should have seen David, but that line was too dang long!) It costs 7 euro to enter the museum. No photos are allowed to be taken in the showrooms. I enjoyed learning about early start of Gucci and seeing the beautiful leather products, car, evening wear, and handbags over the few floors. I ended my visit by going into the museum shop and cafe. The staff are friendly and not snobby at all. Bathrooms are very clean and a good place to escape the heat and chaos of Piazza della Signoria.

Wife loves Gucci and I had no clue why nor an appreciation for the massive bills associated with her purses until I visited "Gucci Garden", which showcased the truly artistic approach to design and fashion. Particularly eerie was the "tribute to Bjork" room. I'm not a fan of the song or Bjork but the combination of the video and the Gucci dress was stunning and mesmerizing. The museum has free WiFi and worth the €8 per person entrance fee. read more

This museum was really special. It is a new museum that opened to celebrate a century since the founding of Gucci in Florence. If you have an appreciation for Italian/Florencian brands, I highly recommend a visit. During their late-night hours on Friday night after 8pm, the admission is reduced. The museum was an archive of Gucci merchandise since its humble beginnings as a travel goods brand and through its evolution into one of the most globally recognized luxury brands today. This museum will have you appreciate the brand's quality and timelessness. If you have an eye for fashion, you will see that the product lines from 40 years ago would still be fashionable today. On some level, the whole museum may be seen as a sales pitch for Gucci. My favorite part of the museum was the newest exhibit on the 2nd floor: a room full of mannequins shaped to match their runway models, and the clothes they wore in various Gucci fashion shows. I felt as though I had stumbled into the basement of Westworld where they keep all of the retired robot hosts. The mannequins were almost lifelike in their presentation. The iPads with descriptions of the fashion show and clothing they were wearing truly brought them to life. Another great part was a section of Gucci red-carpet fashion which displayed real dresses worn by celebrities on the red carpet. As you can imagine, these dresses are just plain gorgeous. You will realize how tiny these celebrities are, but wonder why you won't ever be so lucky to be outfitted in such glamorous clothing! I brought my husband here since I am interested in fashion and wanted to see what this was all about. But what ended up happening was my husband decided he likes Gucci. The next day, we ended up taking a bus to the luxury outlets in Florence and guess who found a lot of Gucci merchandise he couldn't resist. Ahem, it wasn't the wife. read more

Almost gave it 4 stars... felt it was lacking in something, but quite can't put my finger on it. I enjoyed the museum a lot - definitely recommend it to those who like luxury goods. It's small - yet artistically designed. Seeing some of the inspiration behind their collections, ideas and concepts was interesting. I think I would have enjoyed learning more about the family - the elegance of the brand's rise to popularity. In Paris, Louis Vuitton does this well - made it worthwhile. Seeing the infamous Gucci Cadillac Seville car was the highlight for me. I love cars and heard stories about a Gucci Cadillac, yet never knew if it was true. It's a nice museum for in-between visits to other attractions. It's not "primary" enough to make it onto a Must See list. read more

I was waiting in line and the woman at entry told us that the last entry was at 6:30pm. When we got to the front, it was 6:28pm. She stared at us and then walked away laughing, not letting us in.

To my close friends and family, it's a known fact that I am a huge Gucci fan. So it wasn't any surprise to my best friend who I traveled with when I requested to make a stop at the Gucci Museum while in Florence! It's a pretty small museum, and only charges 7 euro - 50% of that going back to the city of Florence to help preserve it's sites and history. What I really enjoyed about this museum is the history it gave about the logo, the brand and the creator. When you go through the different rooms, you will see vintage pieces as well as a few red carpet favorite dresses worn by some of the world's most famous celebrities. They also have small temporary exhibitions as well as some of the original building preserved. Overall, a very nice museum- a good break from all the Renaissance masterpieces. They also have a decent gift shop! Worth a stop in especially if you are a fashion lover and in the area. If you have time, also a grab a latte at the Gucci Cafe and people watch in the Piazza. read more

This was such a waste of money. Save your money and visit the Uffizi museum instead (for just 1 euro extra), you won't feel ripped off. This museum feels like someone just raided an old woman's garage sale and exposed all of it in a tiny building. I can't believe Gucci would put their name on such sad establishment. The only interesting part in a room with 4 beautiful Gucci dresses, dating back to 2012 (I know - so historic). It was a collection made for stars (Blake Lively, etc.) that was worn at red carpet events. read more

A gorgeous collection, but not much of a museum. A quick run through is all you need, but Gucci's genius cannot be ignored. The car and riding crops were a personal favorite.
