  • Same Snotty Waiters
    By Traveler, 02/12/08
    The museum itself is an absolute bargain and a treasure trove to those who love Impressionist art.

    The restaurant, however ... well, what's there to be said. French waiters are, after all, French waiters. The dining experience cost them a star. Otherwise, a 5-star experience.

  • Love it, love it, love it!
    By Roberta P, 02/12/08
    We (my son and I) loved the openness of it. Also it was my only opportunity to see so many French Impressionist paintings in one place. Once in a lifetime visit! Actually preferred it to the Louvre, although I wouldn't miss that either! Very much worth the time to see and I highly recommend it. The view across the Seine in November was priceless!

  • Impressionist mecca
    By robert.stevens95, 01/15/08
    Fantastic museum in a wonderful setting. The converted railway station, with its imposing roof, provides a truely magnificent stage for the extensive collection of paintings and sculpture. All the classic impressionist paintings under one roof. Who could ask for more?

    For the art lover, a full day outing.

  • A place you wouldn't expect.
    By rexpie., 12/09/07
    I loved Musee d'Orsay because of the eclectic setting. Who would have thought that an old train station could be transformed into a museum of all things?
    The artwork takes your breath away and the statues leave you standing there in awe. Everything seems to flow into one another, and you could spend days upon days just letting everything seep in.
    Definitely worth the time and money.

  • totally awesome
    By A Yahoo! Contributer, 11/14/07
    It was the most exciting museum I saw. When you think you have seen it all, you get to the top floor... the impressionists... get ready for the thrill of your life.

    The price was worth it, it took us about 5 hours to see the whole museum.

  • Amazing
    By A Yahoo! Contributer, 10/20/07
    If you have visited Italy, you'll notice that you spent 10 Euro just to see a couple important art pieces in one musuem. For that price you get to see some of the most important pieces from the impressionists and the post-impressionist all in one place. Try to buy the musuem pass before you get there so that you don't waste precious time standing in the long lines and then enjoy!

  • Every painting you ever wanted to see
    By A Yahoo! Contributer, 09/27/07
    Use Rick Steeve's guide to Paris as a guide to the Musee d'Orsay; it is excellent. Here are Van Gogh's bedroom, Whistler's mother, Manet's Dejeuner Sur L'Herb, Renoir's Moulin a la Galette--all the iconic paintings of the Impressionist era in a fantastic retro train station. I love this place and you won't want to miss it.
