Hotel du Louvre Paris France

As its name suggests, Hotel Louvre is located right in the center of Paris in a perfect location smack dab between the Louvre Museum and the Palais Royal. You couldn't ask for a better site. Each of the four exterior walls looks out onto a famous monument of Paris – the Louvre Museum, Palais Garnier, the theatre Comédie Française, and the Palais Royal. Just outside the door is Rue de Rivoli where you find the Louvre and the best artwork in the world. In the hotel itself is the iconic Brasserie du Louvre and the Defender Bar.
