If you are a Monet fan or you love impressionism, here is where you should go! You will found one of the most beautiful paintings in the world. And as always, high quality comes in small amounts. So, you will find a relative small, cosy museum decorated with wonderful masterpieces. In conclusion: if you are visiting Paris, this is a... More

An excellent collection of paintings, especially the works of monet, along with an interesting old house with empire furnishings. I'm starting to understand Monet even more. Do this before the orangerie. More

The exhinbit of Berthe Marisot and her connections to the Manets was fascinating. The problem, as I explained to one of the "responsables" was the poor ventilation and permitting too many viewers at one time, which I always find both distracting and hard to navigate. The Museum is definitely woth a visit and there is a marvellou park right next... More

This is a mansion that was dedicated as a museum and is filled with Monet's and special exhibits. The Monet's are very accessible--you can walk right up to them--and some of his finest. The building itself is very special and well maintained and getting to it you get to walk through a beautiful park and neighborhood. Unlike the D'Orsay or... More

very nice paintings in a beautifull house in a nice neighbourhood. No possibility of drinking a cup of coffee even its a pitty. They are somewhat obsessed with "stealing" of paintings. In itself the collection is beautifull. More

For those times when you don't fancy the queues and the miles of gallery of the big museums, this is the one to head for. The building itself is charming, and the permanent holdings of Monets and other Impressionists wonderful and unhackneyed (though there are some very familiar ones - good to see the originals). The featured exhibition when I... More

for those who love Monet marmottan can't be missed : but the rest of the collection is glorious and the museum in itself hosted in a old collector's home in the passy area of Paris is a gem. there are many, i mean many versions of the nympheas, and some incredible masterpieces, i loved the caillebotte. ten euros may be...

The staffs of this museum have the worst quality among the museums in Paris. When we visited the museum at last month… We did not know you the “Museum pass” can not be used at this museum. A male attendant stood at the entrance at that time. My wife asked him with politely, that museum pass can be used to... More
