Possibly the most overrated and disappointing attraction I’ve been to. The painting rooms are beautiful yes but otherwise you get these empty rooms to walk around. The outside is also impressive to look at. A tablet shows what it used to look like and I wish it still did because its modern version is dreadfully dull, empty and boring. I imagine if it wasn’t linked to the pope or religion it wouldn’t be rated so highly.

We were a group of 4 adults and we were happy we visited it. We found the history interesting. 2 of us has the tablets for the virtual tour. The devices have a great interactive experience and available in multiple languages. They weren't always the most user friendly and often even glitchy so that was a bit frustrating. For instance, you can scan the QR code and see a rendering of the space to show you what it used to look like and silhouettes of people and where they could've been in the rooms. This was very cool! But then, it's like the experience would time out and it wouldn't always let you go back to continue looking at it. 2 of us didn't want to be carrying tablets and chose to share instead, so the timing out was frustrating and if you don't have it, there's not a whole lot to look at in the rooms and information mostly in French with some signage in multiple languages or at least English. The garden area was nice and climbing up the stairs and around the base of the roof we had done nice views. We liked it enough and would even recommend if you go there to do it, but we wouldn't go back.

Very interesting. So much better than the crazy tourist traffic and the hundreds of tour groups you have to wade through to see the Sistine Chapel. Low fees, no lines, very little crowding, and amazing history. Definitely a not to miss site. We visited the palace, gardens and bridge.
