The museum is located in an unusual and original building of modern architecture. Outwardly, this structure resembles an orderly pile of geometric figures or a huge crystal with irregular edges. The walls of the museum shine with a cold shine of gray metal and glass. The Royal Museum houses more than 6 million exhibits: dinosaur bones, art objects, weapons, clothing, household items and much more.

This place is HUGE with something for everyone. I loved all the exhibits on display, lots of information and a lot to look at.
The human era was my favourite, I loved seeing the animals and the way things progressed through time. A lot of the skeletons are real or contain real fossils which is absolutely mind blowing.
We didn’t eat here though the food options looked nice at the cafe.
You are able to leave and come back the same day as many times as you want with your tickets which is great.
I recommend 4 hours minimum if you’re someone who likes to digest what you see. There is a LOT. Loads of cultural historical pieces. It’s honestly like art work at times.
We didn’t interact with staff at all as there was digital scanners for entry.
It’s VERY clean.
Highly recommend.

We arrived 30 minutes after our slated time slot and there were no issues. They scan the tickets (if you bought more than one) and you're free to enter. Masks are required and must be worn inside at all times. The popular exhibits, there are more people. The dinosaurs and the China exhibit. Each exhibit had one way markings on the floor. For the busier exhibits people generally follow the rules. For the not busier ones, there's generally no one around anyway. Most (if not all) of the interactive displays have been turned off. Any exhibits that allow patrons to touch the exhibits are now touch prohibited. As a result, for our 4 year old daughter, she was bored. She enjoyed looking at the dinosaur skeletons, but after that there was nothing for her that held her interest. There was a section where she was banging on a steel chair, but that wasn't an exhibit. After 1 hour, she asked us if we could go home. So we did. Overall, the trip was good. If you have younger kids, probably better to wait until they are older as they will lose interest especially if there is nothing to do but look at stuff with no touching.

Excellent place to spend a day as a local or tourist. Their permanent collection is a wonderful gem to have in Toronto and their travelling exhibits are always really well curated and topical.

One of my fave places to get créatively recharged. Staff are very helpful, both on site and online. I had to make an abrupt change to my visit and they helped me out a lot with being able to change or refund/rebook my visit. Being that accommo..

As for the collection, it's quite good, a lot to see and more importantly, the dinosaurs are plentiful. Would love to see more new additions to the museum. I've been to other ones in the US and Europe and hoping that ours will continue to grow and expand to meet those same tiers.

I think it is overrated.
Nice place for kids but the historical relics were not that much and jaw dropping.
You cannot compare with MET or Chicago's musuim.
They follow all covid protocols

Same as in every case except exceptional shows and a couple of the customary territories are shut. Huge numbers of the touch screens were not operable. A not many of them had QR codes that guests can examine for more data however by far most (like about 90%) didn't which was an issue with a couple of the displays since we didn't have the foggiest idea what we were taking a gander at. In any case, the ROM is huge and breezy with numerous excellent and exceptional things to take a gander at so worth the visit, particularly with their half off ticket valuing. Relatively few activities during closure due to COVID19 pandemic and the historical centre wasn't packed.
Proficient accommodating staff, decent assortments particularly Egyptian and Roman zones.
Inshore , it was really nice experience and the place was really neat and clean.rest rooms are also really clean and maintained .

Interesting. Spacious. Certain areas closed owing to Covid but still worth the money. The Gem exhibits and the animal exhibits are amazing.
