After a subway adventure, we entered the museum and spend a couple of hours strolling through the galleries. Lots of funky stuff and even an R rated section which was a bit of fun.

This museum is located in Rappongi Hills. The tower is really impressive with impressive views over Tokyo. That only is worth visiting (the ticket combines the visit to the tower and the museum). Apart from this, the museum was hosting an exhibition by a contemporary Japanese artist, Aida Makoto, which I really enjoyed.
Depends a lot on the exhibition when you visit. We had a Japanese artist who specialised in using young girls, gore, death & pornographic elements in his work. Quite big! For being on a single level, simply walked into room after room after room. No photography allowed. There is cloaking room.
Overall, better than Tokyo City View. Buy the combination...

everything is said in the title!!! You may not like the contemporary exhibitions, but the view from the top is great and there is a nice bar to hang out.
We originally went to the museum to see the building it was in and it's views. We ended up seeing one of the best museum art shows ever. I've heard that they have eclectic shows. Based on this one, I wouldn't hesitate to see what they curated
Great beautiful museum, with delicious restaurants and amazing view of Tokyo, def worth the visit!!!!
I love this museum. Easy to get to in Roppongi, stylish entrance and then up the lift to the 50th(?) floor, and then, apart from the art, great views over Tokyo. The restaurant up there is not bad either, get a window seat.
Having gone to nearly 10 exhibitions over the years at the Mori, I can honestly say that they have all be terrific. The museum is high-calibre in the artists they showcase and the facilities are the best in Tokyo. Most importantly, they always offer English audio guides, and they are often free! It is truly the best museum in Tokyo,...

We saw the Aida Makoto: Monument for Nothing exhibition, throughouly enjoyable. We followed that with lunch at the stylish restaurant near the exhibtion entrance then topped the visit by taking the lift to helipad on the roof for breathtaking views over the city (and far better value than the Tokyo Skytree).
Really really always great. Recently saw Aida exhibition and was brilliant. Very clean and perfectly formed. Lovely contemporary space for big art and installation pieces.
