I love going to this museum as I am particularly fond of Antiques especially the Egyptian and the oriental one’s. Moreover that the Sculpture department is tremendous. I also like to promenade in the Carousel duLouvre, as the stores in it are beautiful. You also can eat in a huge restaurant where world- wide cooking is served.

...I have just come back from Paris having spent 2 nights at the France Louvre. This is my review....
Location
The best part of staying at the France Louvre was the location, right in the centre of Paris with great transport links. Metro station 'Chatelet- Les Halles' is only a 5-min walk away and seems to be a main station of Paris.

This hotel is also a couple of minutes away from the Seine and around 10 minutes walk to the Louvre...

...Musee duLouvre (Louvre Museum)
Background
The Louvre is the most visited and one of the oldest, largest and most famous art galleries and museums in the world.
The first royal “Castle of the Louvre” was founded in what was then the western edge of Paris by Philip Augustus in 1190, as a fortified royal palace to defend Paris on its west against Plantagenet attacks. The first building in the existing Louvre was begun in 1535, after demolition of the Old Castle (foundations of the Old Castle are now an exhibition). The architect Pierre Lescot introduced to Paris the new design vocabulary of the Renaissance, which had been developed in the chateaux of the Loire.
During his reign (1589 – 1610), King Henry IV added the Grande Galerie. Henry IV, a promoter of the arts, invited hundreds of artists and craftsmen to live and work...
