It was cold, wet and windy and the only sign of something interesting behind it's high walls was a sign advertising a Picasso exhibition. What we found was the most fascinating museum with an equally fascinating family story. To walk around this mansion as it was left by its benefactors was magical, not like any museum we have ever visited... More

It was a real treat...first to get a reservation, then to wait for the food to arrive...The place looks magnificent! the food was very good, although I guess I am getting spoilt by eating at all the good places, I get pickier and pickier about the taste. It was all well cooked, beautifully presented, and promptly served. Everything from the... More

This museum is EXCELLENT. I really dont see why it isnt in the guidebooks because i found this one of the most enjoyable trips I made in Paris. Its like a national trust house but better because you can touch everything. So interesting to see and original Parisian interior. More

I think a lot of tourist would overlook or not even know about the gem of a "museum". We saw it mentioned on the "Secrets of Paris" website and knew it was a must see visit on our trip. It turned out to be much more than a museum and was a lovely way to spend a few hours. More

A great little museum that shows how the wealthy lived in the 19th century. Close to the Arc de Triomphe and the Parc Monceau, so it makes for a nice afternoon. More

I like feeding my soul and my body at this museum as they always present interesting exhibitions and the cafeteria is good. It was one of the first museums in Paris to offer a quality cafeteria. More

This is the former grand home of a couple who were passionate about collecting fine art, particularly Italian. The home really provides you with a feel of how the wealthy lived in Paris. A useful diversion, but only if you have been to Paris a number of times and visited many of the more popular attractions. More

The Musee Jacquemart-Andre is one of Paris' best smaller museums (although it's not really small). There is a nice collection of Italian painting and sculpture, amongst other things. The rooms are lovely. The tea room is a wonderful place to have lunch (or tea). Very pretty setting. Go for a walk in a the Parc Monceau afterward. More
