An amazing private collection curated by an interesting and knowledgable guide!Its off the beaten track but if you are in the area, stop by and take a look.

If you like old cars, excelent, however if you like luxury cars better go elsewhere. There is a lot of Rolls-Royce but quite nothing about the history of the brand or any of the exposed cars. Could be interesting but it fails as a museum. Ah, you can not take any photo...

We really like the sheer number of old (mostly 1930s and older) Rolls Royces. The entry fee and photography fee were a little high, although you do get a poster with the photo fee. There is very little documentation on the vehicles, so it's hard to know what is distinctive about each one. Also, I understand the need to protect the cars, but after I'd paid my photography fee I found I couldn't get close enough to most of them to get good pix.

Nice collection on 3 levels. At least 100 cars, most of them from the 1920-1950 decades. Most of the cars are nicely renovated, but some of them are under renovation. My only concern is: they want to show too many too similar cars, and at the end of the visit it's impossible to recall what beauties you really met with.

if you are a rolls Royce fan then this is a MUST as there are masses of fully restored and not so fully restored cars, there is a work shop on site, there are also a few old motorbikes on show. stop for lunch or a drink next door, especially if you have walked up from the town . then walk up to the gorge

This guy clearly loves his Rolls Royces. The museum contains dozens of mainly 1920s & 1930's examples packed in to a three storey warehouse. Some of the cars are works in progress & the second floor contains the more presentable examples. Both my wife and I enjoyed walking around the cars, but I did find that they were not very well indexed to the English guide that we had, making it difficult to determine the type and history of each car. Also, while the viewer can get very close to the vehicles, the cars are too tightly packed together to be able to get a good view of them. On the third floor there is a display of Rolls-Royce bric a brac. Overall worth a visit if you have more than a passing interest in cars.

My husband definitely enjoyed the biggest collection of Roll Royce cars in the world to the full, for me it was interesting to see but nothing out of the ordinary. We found the place with navigation otherwise I think it would be difficult to find the place which is on the outskirts of Dornbirn. The museum is on three floors. On the two floors there are cars, on the third floor you can have an authentic English tea in a tearoom.There is some furniture and china with pictures of the British royal family members on the same floor. If you want to take pictures, you have to buy a ticket on top of the entrance fee but I am not sure that it is worth it as the cars are close to one another and it would be difficult to take a photo. On an extremely hot day it was an escape for me but otherwise I don´t think I would enjoy it as the exhibition is mainly for car lovers.

This is a wonderful museum and is apparently the biggest Rolls Royce museum in the world, so I'm not sure why it is here. When you walk in, after the wow factor declines it becomes a case of ground hog day. The cars are beautifully maintained and presented but they are parked side by side so you can't even stick your head in through many of the windows. Most vehicles are from the mid 1920s which is testament to the owners commitment to their preservation however it could be well complimented with a wider variety of aged vehicles. Still worth a visit but if it is out of your way, weigh up the odds. The charge 10 euros to take photos which is a bit steep.

There are many cars in this collection; with that I'm done with the praise.The museum is disorganised, there are no labels or explanations, no history, nothing that makes a living museum.You cannot even approach most of the exponates. You need to pay much more for the right to take photos.Boring and colourless.

The location is a bot odd, at the trail entrance to the Rappenlochsluft, near an old (being refurbished) factrory and an a really old Gasthaus. Really, if you really like to too at Rolls Royce cars, you might spend an hour or two. For the average visitor, look through the windows because thats about what you will get out of the visit.

some interpretation would have been helpful, it's bumper to bumper in there. a lot of multiplesI need 100 characters but I don't have any more to say!

Great selection of vintage cars but not much else to see or do

It was raining, so we wanted to do something different. We picked up a flyer on the Rolls-Royce Museum and went. It was like a huge storage room of amazing cars, but there was little or no explanation on each car. There is a place to watch the workers restoring the cars, but they weren't there when we went. It didn't take long to go through because of lack of explanation of each car. On the other hand, I enjoyed seeing all the changes in the years and who owned some of the cars. Not sure I would recommend this unless you are really understand the Rolls-Royce.

This museum is owned by one person. I was shocked the moment I entered the museum when I saw how the cars were displayed. So many great cars placed adjacent to each other as if they are in a car parking. The ground floor is for the Rolls Royce cars used by normal people, the second floor for those used by famous people such as the mother queen. The third floor was a cafe and some furniture used by the British royal family !! No such useful information was given for each car; just the year of manufacturing and the designer. Only few cars have a very brief information. It will be great if more information is given about the user of the car. Some short documentary movies might also be a good idea for those cars used by famous people but unfortunately non is given. You can have a personal guide who will give some explanation about each car but this costs 150 Euro which is ridiculous !! You can buy some souvenirs though. This needs some improvements as the great cars can't be appreciated with this bad display. 10 Euro should also be paid for using your camera !!!! With no personal guide, the visit will last for no more than one hour.

nous y sommes allé de bonheur le matin, très peu de visiteurs, et c'est aussi bien car l'espace manque autour de ces merveilles.Dommage aussi qu'il faille mettre la main au porte monnaie pour pouvoir faire des photos, mais, en contre-partie, on nous donne un poster...La présentation est assez austère, et comme je le disais, les voitures sont très proches les une des autres. Par contre, les autos sont superbes, certaines restaurées, d'autres dans leur "jus", l'amateur de voitures (comme moi) appréciera. le musée s'étend sur 3 étages, et ne montre pas que des voitures, mais un peu de l'univers Rolls-Royce: vaisselle, argenterie, bagages, verres et carafes en cristal, ainsi que quelques motos anciennes et surtout une partie de l'atelier de restauration ou, nous pouvons voir des employés s'affairer sur des moteurs ou des carrosserie en cours de rénovations. Alors, amateurs de belles mécaniques, n'ésitez pas, vous ne serez pas décus ....
