I expected this park to be something more than it was, and I wouldn't make it a stop unless you were passing directly by it anyhow. more

This is definitley the place to go if your ever in France. It is a peacuful and buetiful site to see. And unlike the Eiffel Tower or Notre Dame it isn't a huge tourist trap so you can actually get around. It is also a great place to go if you have small children because they have a huge play... more

We bought a baguette, some cheese, and a bottle of wine, and made our way to a bench facing a lovely statue. We ate while watching birds of all types compete for the crumbs and the breeze made the leaves shake like sequins. Afterwards we walked through the park, finding the lovely pond with it's ducks and children pushing sailboats... more

I skimmed over the reviews and apparently someone mistook this for a hotel. This is a garden/park, not a hotel. The grounds are lovely. This is a great place to take a walk around or for families with children to come (there are play areas). The palace is wonderful as well - you can't go inside except once a month... more

Not far from Pantheon, St Sulpice, Les Invalides... Palais du Luxembourg is an art museum with traveling exhibits. Les Jardins du Luxembourg includes reflecting pond, fountains, statues of French queens, etc. Wonderful for a few hours or an afternoon in the park... great place to sit & read, people-watch, etc. During the spring/summer, the city puts out thousands of chairs... more

We spent a lovely day at Luxembourg Gardens, lots of seats out for you to just relax and enjoy. We also went to see a traditional puppet show which was enjoyable even in French as the story was known and loved being the 3 little pigs which most people already know the story. My daughter then had a pony ride... more

As opposed to another review shown above on the Lux. , this is not a shabby hotel but a wonderful , large and peaceful formal public garden adjoining the Latin Quarter. There are many beautiful things to see here including the rear of the French Senate building (originally built as a chateau for one of the Medici's along with a... more

Our room, for $190 per night, looked like a prison cell - cement walls, weird bars in the middle of the room. The door and window opened to the street - we were not able to open our curtains the entire trip. Booked AND PAID for this hotel months in advance only to be given the worst room in the... more

Luxembourg Gardens is beautiful, peaceful, and yet fun. Pick up some delicious "take-out" at Gerard Mulot down the street and spend a leisurely few hours walking around the gardens or sitting in the fountain area. The place is a work of art. more
