This was so much fun and so interesting!! While we spent 4 hours waiting in line to visit the…read moreCatacombs, we occupied our time by searching for something different, or perhaps a little odd to do while in Paris. And we found this place! Definitely a little odd, but a whole lot of interesting! It was about a 40 minute metro ride to the outside of Paris and then a short walk to the museum. It was a little freaky to say the least and we may have even though to ourselves 'today is the day we die....or become vampires.' The front of the house is overgrown and in disrepair, which only adds to the experience! You then have to walk around to the back alley to enter through a red door into the back yard and the building where the museum is located. We knocked and stood there for 15 minutes waiting for someone to let us in. Just as we were about to give up and leave, a man dressed in black came through the door and escorted us in. Anyway, we survived I think. And we really enjoyed our several hours of discussing vampires with our host. If you are looking for something different to do. If you like vampires. If you want an adventure then do this! Just make sure you call in advance, as the museum entry is by private reservation only.

A fantastic hidden gem full of beautiful kind people, amazing live music from all over the world,…read moreand fun atmosphere and people dancing! My friend that I met it Paris is a musician and told me bout this place. I went here on my birthday and had such a good time. The people who work here are very sweet and kind and its a nice change of atmosphere from the hustle and bustle of the center of Paris. Its a lot more laid back, people let their guard down and the crowd is full of all kinds of people, especially music lovers. The music here is so so good!! I discovered some of my new favorite bands here at this place and started bringing all my friends from school here and got them hooked on this amazing hidden gem.

There was a double feature when I went of Picasso and Rousseau. I was in awe the entire time. The Picasso show was about 40 mins and the Rousseau was 20 minutes. I felt immersed in the art of the Rousseau collection, but I saw the story in the life of Picasso during his collection. This is a must when in Paris

I can't remember how I found out about this "exhibit"…read more When I originally saw the ad it was about Klimt being the main show. That would have been so cool. It ended the week before my arrival. But it was still a great show. Purchase your ticket online and pick a date and time. Originally thought the exhibit was in an old warehouse, but it's the main floor of a residential building. Two stories of open space. The images are projected on the floor and all the walls choreographed to music. The first was Van Gogh's Starry Night with other of his works mixed. Japanese Images of a Floating World was next installation. The works have movement and floats through the vast space. There are no seats. Be careful walking around, as people just sit in the middle of the floor to watch. You can hang out and watch it a second time. Highly recommend seeing this.

It's officially called Spoken Word (I think it has a Facebook page if you want to look it up) and it's Mondays at 8pm, and primarily in English -- a fun place to take your French friends who want to learn! It's a relatively small room and can get hot, so don't wear your favorite cashmere turtleneck sweater to this one (speaking from experience, unfortunately). If you want to recite a poem or do a skit or sing a song, you just sign up beforehand with the Italian guy wearing the top hat (don't remember his name...gah!). It's a fun little community and a good place to meet English and French speakers alike!

So at 11am, it was a good place to sit for an hour. They only have croissant and pan au chocolat, and the woman didn't know how to make a cappucino or latte. To her credit, she readily admitted such, and spoke English as well. We did have a tasty cafe creme and a hot chocolate; the pastries were fresh and tasty. The decor is 'lived in' but comfortable, complete with some interesting photography.

Salle 6 is *tiny*- you'd almost be better off taking in a film on your computer screen- and the whole place could use a deep-clean.
