What people are saying? (Google Reviews Summary)

The MET Cloisters is NYC’s own medieval castle hideaway, perfect for couples craving a little romance with a side of history.

Entering through those ancient wooden doors feels like a Game of Thrones moment. You’re not just in Manhattan anymore. Instead, you’re in a dreamy European town, surrounded by tapestry-wrapped walls and garden vibes.

The unicorn tapestries are the real MVPs here. They just scream “Instagram this.” Seriously, who knew medieval art could be so swoon-worthy? Plus, the views over the Hudson are a postcard moment waiting to happen.

Pro tip: Spring is your BFF for the gardens, and if you’re navigating from downtown, brace for a subway adventure. But hey, every good quest has a journey. Fort Tryon Park’s right next door, so tack on a nature walk to keep the romance alive.
