Wonderful Paris trip
We had a wonderful time in Paris.
I would recommend the Hotel we stayed at; the Hotel Keppler. We were also upgraded to a Suite with a terrace and a view of the Eiffel Tower. The best thing about the hotel was the exceptional service with each and every one of the staff being helpful and friendly, and going out of their way to help us with any tickets or booking we wanted. The breakfast was also terrific (and included in the room price). Have a look at their Web site if you get the chance and the rooms are in fact as beautiful as the pictures.
We did all of the usual attractions like the Eiffel Tower, Lourve, Notre Dame, Arc de Triomphe, Versallies and the Opera. My favorite was the Opera for the most beautiful building, but of course it depends where your interests lie. If you are into old works of Art I don’t think there would be anywhere better in the world than the Lourve. One of the out of the way things we did was to book a car and do a trip out to Chantilly Castle which is only about 40 mins out of Paris and it was beautiful. There is also one of the biggest and grandest stable complexes in the world which is open to the public most afternoons and has a living horse museum (a collection of nearly 200 horse breeds). This was stunning and I love horses so a fantastic side trip.
The metro train system is a breeze to use and can get you anywhere in Paris.
Hope this gives you some ideas and areas which you can investigate. My top recommendation really is the Hotel Keppler (I think it is one of the top 5 on trip adviser for Paris), a wonderful place to stay with the best service I have ever had anywhere in the world.
