parie

Advantages: grt location
Disadvantages: --

...**** Quality Hotel Pierre Arc de Triomphe Paris**** I stayed in this hotel the second time i visited this city.There are 25 rooms,all en-suite ,single,double and twin. **Location/Getting there** This hotel is located very near the arc de triomphe and down one of the streets is a shuttle bus service which will take you to the airports,both Charles De Gauile and Orily.It is also near a metro stop and a taxi rank.This is how long it will take you to get to te hotel from the following places From the Champs Elysées : 10 minutes walk From the Palais des Congres : 10 minutes walk From Opera : Direct access by the ligne number 3(2 minute walk). **Reception/staff** I didn't think that this looked very impressive.There was apparently a bar but this was an area with two seats and small work top.Unimpressed.Checking in was okay but...

Elysee Soft Touch Permanent Hair Removal Pen

Advantages: Does what it says, removes hair
Disadvantages: None exept make sure where you put the probe

...Elysee Permanent Hair Removal System Having being either disappointed with wax strips and other products for hair removal, and spent fortunes trying to find a product that does what it says, I decided to try the Soft Touch permanent hair removal system by Elysee. The painless and permanent claim drew me to give it a try. So?.. Cost £35 - yes a bit expensive but was worth the price. Contents. The system comes with all you need to operate it (no opening it and having to run to the chemist for anything extra like batteries!), and is neatly packed in a fold over pouch. The instruction guide that comes with it extensively explains how it works and how to use it in a simple way that can be easily understood. How it works Not being a scientist I have had to give the explanation in the booklet. Evidently, when you put the gel...

Review of Elysee ELEC PEN

  A Superb Gamble in Vegas! The Paris Hotel!

Advantages: Something new to explore..you can be in Paris and Las Vegas at the same time!
Disadvantages: A bit pricy for some, you need more than two weeks to see everything!

... First . . . Las Vegas . . . and the strip One of the magnificent trips that I will never forget was my recent visit to the city of lights and entertainment - Las Vegas! It is the most densely inhabited city in the United States of America. Las Vegas is known for its gambling places and games; for unusually shaped large hotels, casinos, restaurants, resorts, properties and spacious houses. Most of the first class hotels, casinos and entertainments are laid out over a mere 3.8 miles. The most extraordinary hotel I have ever seen was the Paris Hotel . . . in Las Vegas! It?s not only a hotel . . . it?s like an amusement city! This hotel was arranged, decorated and designed just as if a slice of Paris had been pulled out and put down in Las Vegas! I was lucky enough to go to Las Vegas . . . I work in a travel...

Review of Paris, Las Vegas

Paris, je t'aime

Advantages: Great metro service, beautiful city to explore on foot,
Disadvantages: Perhaps more difficult for disabled people, busy busy busy, lots of sellers and beggars, STRIKES

...Trying to find your way around any capital city is no mean feat and forward planning is always advisable. So I hope to be able to share some of my knowledge of getting around Paris, having spent 9 months living there and having visited on numerous occasions. BY AIR: -One great way of seeing any city is from the air, and it is possible to take helicopter tours over the city. They're pretty pricey though - one quote I found was ?250 for adults, ?220 for children. Flying is also a popular way of getting to Paris. Paris has three airports - Roissy Charles de Gaulle, Orly and Beauvais Tillé. * Beauvais Tillé, from what I've heard, is rather a pathetic excuse for an airport and is actually situated some 53 miles north of Paris! If you're flying with Ryanair you'll almost certainly end up here, so it's worth making you sure you know...

Review of Getting around in Paris

Je t'adore Paris !!

Advantages: Classic French beauty, history and ambiance
Disadvantages: None

... CATHEDRALE NOTRE DAME DE PARIS "Each face, each stone of this venerable monument is not only a page of the history of the country, but also of the history of knowledge and art.... Time is the architect, the people are the builder." -- Victor Hugo, Notre-Dame de Paris. INTRODUCTION I love Paris. In fact I could have written that famous song, 'I love Paris in the Springtime."!! Because whenever you visit Paris the sights you see and experiences you have can differ on each trip. Depending on the time of year, or even the time of day, each experience can change as readily as the weather does. I have never once on any of my visits been disappointed with my trip. One place that I always love to visit, one that epitomises 'The City of Light', is the magnificent Notre Dame Cathedral. Notre Dame Cathedral...

Le meridien Paris

Advantages: spotlessly clean, luxury hotel.
Disadvantages: costs

...It was my wife?s 40th birthday, so what could I do that was a little special? What about a trip in a hot air balloon? That was out as she doesn?t like heights. What about a weekend in Blackpool? Not an option as it isn?t her favourite place. So I choose Paris. It would be our first time out of the country together and as a couple with no children! And where better than the romantic capital of the world? So I booked the short stay at my local Thomas cook, and we decided on Le meridian hotel in Montparnasse ? Paris. The hotel was built in 1974 and has 25 floors, with eight lifts (elevators) and 953 rooms. The hotel offers a range of ?extras? including, 24 hour room service and reception and concierge desk: Fax machine, interconnecting rooms, e-mail facilities, Currency exchange, Laundry/dry cleaning service, Safe deposit...

Review of Le Meridien Etoile, Paris

A great Paris hotel

Advantages: Perfect location, excellent access to Metro and sights.
Disadvantages: Bedroom doors bang loudly when they shut.

...The first time I ever visited Paris I stayed at this hotel. I just left it up to my boyfriend and his dad to choose the accommodation as I knew nothing about this city at the time, except that it had the Eiffel Tower! When we looked it up on the internet there were a few flattering photographs, and because it was so close to the Gare du Nord (where we arrive from the Eurostar) it seemed like the perfect little hotel. It's in a great location for a hotel that isn't too pricey, or too cheap. Location It's located in the heart of Paris, it's a lovely traditional looking building and is in the immediate neighbourhood of the amazing St Quention Market. This is a indoor market, it's hard to miss as it's a large metal stucture and is quite impressive and attractive. It's a good place to buy 'real' French food, although there is...

Review of Relais de Paris Lafayette, Paris

Paris on a budget. The final chapter.

Advantages: tips on saving
Disadvantages: none

...Paris on a budget - everything else So, this is the final review in my series on Paris. I have been trying to prove that you can do Paris on a budget. The simple fact is that I went with 500 euro, and managed to come home with money, even after the duty free!! I still like to think that I got the most out of the city. So far, I have gone through a few of the major attractions in my other reviews (please check them out.). I think that they prove that Paris can be done for very little cash. In this final review I aim to give a few tips out on where to save cash, and a few others attractions that you can also enjoy in the capital. Food & Drink I think that a lot of people are apprehensive about eating in Paris. There is a firm belief that you will need to bring a blank check book with you, but this really is not true. The French...
