Paris: Is any city more closely associated with love and romance? Enjoy a relaxing tour on the Seine, then go all the way to the top of the Arc de Triomphe for a breathtaking view of the city. If it's romance you desire, Montmartre, away to the north on the tallest hill in the city, is the most unabashedly romantic district of Paris, with quiet stairways, little alleys, and deserted squares.
Paris has some of the best museums in the world. Discover treasures ranging from Picasso to Paleolithic carvings. You don't have to stay inside to enjoy the art: the city itself is a masterpiece, with architecture that inspires and celebrates the human spirit.
Whether you're enjoying a picnic by the Seine in the Square du Vert-Galant, sipping coffee in a sidewalk café, or treating yourself to the world's most elegant dining, you're sure to find something you love in Paris.

Paris à Pied offers three-hour walking tours of the Latin Quarter, the Marais, Montmartre, the heart of Paris, or the renovated glass-roofed passages that date back to the early 1800s. Groups are limited to 6 or fewer, and the price is moderate. Bicycle tours are also quite popular and can be arranged with little advance notice.

Le Bristol Hotel

One of the most famous hotels in the world, Le Bristol has been home to Ava Gardner, Marylin Monroe, Charlie Chaplin, Robert de Niro, Céline Dion and many other celebrities, including some who will stay only at Le Bristol when they are in Paris.

It's easy to see why: The white marble floor, the Gobelin tapestries covering the immaculate walls made out of Ile de France white stone (that kind which was used to build the Sacred Heart basilica, in Montmartre), the Arabian Nights carpets bought for extravagant prices and substituted by newer one once a year, and even the XVIIIth and XIXth centuries paintings formerly exhibited in the Louvre, don't catch the attention as much as the cyclopean bunches of flowers artistically arranged on period tables all around the hotel. This is the height of elegance in the grand tradition of Paris.

The 195 rooms are decorated in a style worthy of such a famous and incredible building. The 300 square meter Presidential Suite has two reception rooms and two bedrooms. The Panoramic Suite features and immense reception room , two bedrooms, a private gym and breathtaking views of the city skyline.

This luxurious establishment is also famous for having one of the largest indoor gardens in France. The indoor pool has an incredible view of the city. There is a gourmet restaurant, fitness center, beauty salon, hair dresser, five conference rooms, and private parking. Services include transportation, concierge, currency exchange, free newspaper, and baby-sitting.

Le Bristol is one of the top four major palace hotels in Paris. As a paradox, much more famous around the world than in France. Book far in advance if you want to enjoy this sanctuary of the French perfect taste.
