Actually we had a snag in the ticketing process. We showed up for our reserved time but the museum was closed for a private event. "You should not have been sold these tickets," they said at the door. Thankfully we were able to come back the next day. Another lady who also showed up was not so lucky. Once we got in, it was a beautiful museum and the audioguide gave us good information. Loved that it was less crowded than other places we visited in Paris.

The building is beautifully renovated and the furniture simply outstanding. The Al Thani exhibition was likewise extremely interesting as well as the objects displayed. Besides, the restaurant on the ground floor is extremely pleasant. We recommend!
