Some of my faves include:

Musée d'Orsay in Paris
Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam
Solomon R. Guggenheim in New York

... but I like many others as well.
The Rijksmuseum is pretty good, and of course the Louvre. The British Museum is right up there but I kind of like museums with impact. Like the Imperial War Museum. The RAF Museum at Hendon. The Car collection at Beaulieu. The museum of natural history in Tripoli with its evaporating formaldehyde. Auschwitz and Birchenau. I was just at Choeung Ek in Phomh Penh and I think that effected me more than any other. I also like the Valley of the Kings and Queens and the Egyptian Museum. There is a cool museum in Toronto by Bata shoes called the Shoe Museum and it is surprisingly good.
Not much of a museum guy myself,.
