Incredible museum! I had no idea what a large museum Cleveland had. They've got a nice parking garage that is reasonably priced, museum admission is free, and they've got a really nice cafe. Even more encouraging was the fact that it has a nice crowd on a random Saturday. They've got some impressive pieces including Monet. But they aren't limited to one era or culture. It would take several visits to soak it all in.
My significant other, and I went to the museum today to see an exhibit that I got the date wrong on, but despite that they had another exhibit today was from a Japanese pen/paper artist, and I was told it was the first time the exhibit was on display in North America! There was four floors with about two floors of exhibits, We went in about 2 PM and there was roughly a dozen people in the building, including other guests and staff. Staff were very polite and helpful. The building seemed clean and how awesome is it that admission is FREE?!?!
Mostly likely you will have to enter from the North entrance. Come in the morning and hit the high points. This maybe the Warhol or the Monets or the suits or armor. Plan to eat lunch and then get the 1pm tour. There is so much to see, you will not get it done in one visit, but plan for about four hours and you will not be disappointed.
The Cleveland Museum of Art consistently ranks as one of the best comprehensive art museums in the United States and one of the most-visited in the world.
But what does that actually mean?
This isn’t the kind of museum where you show up, look at a couple of Picassos, then find the nearest bar. It's home to more than 61,000 works of art spanning 6,000 years — including soothing lily pad oils by Monet, ancient hot bod Grecian statues and 100 very vivid images of Marilyn Monroe courtesy of Andy Warhol.
Oh, and after more than 100 years, the museum’s founders would be pleased to know that their bedrock belief that admission should be free to the general public is still adhered to today. You might also be pleased to know that, because, you know…free.

One of the best museums I've ever been to, I really immersed myself in the past. Different cultures, styles, countries and the most talented creators. Very beautiful paintings that you can see only in this museum, various world sculptures, extremely beautiful tableware, as well as ancient furniture. The museum itself is very large, two floors, there are elevators, you can also have a delicious snack in the cafe, a large selection of food and drinks, cuisine for every taste. There is also a zone where children can play and show their creative skills, for example, create a portrait of themselves or mold a vase from clay, draw with gestures on the screen, so children will not be bored here. We spent about 3 hours in the museum, but we were very satisfied and pleasantly surprised by what we saw. The museum itself is free, but you have to pay for parking, the museum has friendly staff, it is clean, light and cozy. We visited on Friday, there were not many people, there are many benches where you can rest, toilets. My family and I receiving a lot of positive emotions from such beautiful, informative and instructive places, recommend it to everyone))

Excellent museum with a broad collection of art. It is large enough that you can't see it all in one day. It should be on everyone's to do list when visiting Cleveland.
If you park in the garage, the entrance to the museum is on the garage's second floor. Drive up the ramp.
