by 42ENGLISH  - Top 200, Jan 11 '00
Pros: Sights, good eats
Cons: Expensive, no flavor
I have traveled a lot of Europe and Paris was one of the most undesirable spots for me.
It could be because I don't like capital cities as they are so commercialized and international that they don't have a flavor. Paris has sights and yes, I...

Pros: All of it
Cons: There is never enough time to see it all....
My husband and I travelled to Europe last spring for a postponed honeymoon, and boy, we were we happy. I probably will not be able to say something complimentary about this city that hasn't been said by someone before, so suffice it to say that if you...

Pros: Charming, spacious, central
Cons: Reserve ahead
If you are traveling to Paris, I highly recommend renting an apartment in Paris, instead of a staying in a hotel. In June of 1998, we rented an apartment on the picture-perfect Île St Louis in the heart of Paris, near Notre Dame. This is a great option...

Pros: Nirvana for Rodin fans, and the gardens are a place of peace for all
Cons: The museum itself is a bit too crowded with wonderful things
The first place I go in Paris is always the Musee Rodin, and I always advise any of my friends who are about to visit the city that it is a must see destination.
The basic structure of the museum is a house (the Hotel Biron) surrounded by a...

by Epicure - Top 500, Jun 29 '00
Pros: A dessert paradise!
Cons: None unless you are a health food addict
I think I indulge myself more in Paris than in any other city. So many tempting treats lie hidden in every corner of every arrondissement. Parisians have certainly mastered the art of window displays. Who can resist the rainbow of assorted pastries,...

Pros: sights, food, language, life
Cons: language barrier, Paris can be very expensive
My girlfriend and I headed to Paris as part of a two city trip in Europe. Being an American, Paris seemed to be the official introduction to life on the other side of the Atlantic and therefore was a "must-see". Seeing how my income was ever so...

by alberto , Nov 20 '99
Pros: Good value, great location, excellent breakfast
Cons: Small room, tiny closet.
After whiling away a few hours perusing hotel descriptions on the web, we settled on the Pavillon Bastille (www.france-hotel-guide.com/h75012pavbast.htm) and I'm glad we did.
Location: on the Rue de Lyon, one of the streets that radiate off...

Pros: Too many
Cons: no
I wrote this review about Paris because I love Paris. I spent one year in Paris. Last year, I was still a student in Paris. Now I have to work and I wish I were in Paris.
If you are a student and you want to enjoy in Europe, you have to spend...

Pros: Efficient travel by foot, gorgeous architecture, fairy tale gardens, NUTELLA CREPES
Cons: the smell
You often wonder how Europeans stay so fit. My answer is that they climb the Eiffel Tower daily. I was in Paris this past summer of '99 in June. This site is a great attraction to see at night. The French take excellent care of the surroundings and...

Pros: A flea market lover's dream come true!
Cons: How big a suitcase did you bring?
Review Topic: Sights & Attractions
In France, flea markets that sell a step below antiques, but a step above junk, are called Brocantes. The kind of market where you might find things from the 20th century that have...

by Gerald_Clough , Dec 23 '99
Pros: You'll have en easier time in Paris than a Frenchman in Miami
Cons: Toleration and good humor is required.
It almost always happens. You announce to friends that you're off to Paris, and someone makes the comment that the French are rude to Americans. Well, yes and no. You'll find the Paris has its share of less than courteous folks, just like any other...

Pros: A uniquely charming way to view the art of Claude Monet.
Cons: The location next to the Bois de Boulogne is less than convenient.
This is the place to experience the art of Claude Monet. I'm a big fan and have seen (famous) exhibitions in multiple US cities, but this museum is really special. Located on the edge of the Bois de Boulogne, this little museum is quite a hike from the...

Pros: A VAST BUILDING OF ART AND HISTORY
Cons: VERY LITTLE ENGLISH DOCUMENTATION WHEN I WAS THERE!
The Palace and the Museum of the Louvre is one experience for history lovers who plan a trip to Paris must have! I was there in the spring of 1984 which I think must be THE time to go as trees and flowers are an added attraction to the many "must...

Pros: brings the magic of Paris to life
Cons: only once a year - June 21
The summer after my high school graduation, I traveled to France with a group of students from my and other schools. Paris was our first destination, and for the three days that we were there, we exhausted ourselves sightseeing and doing the tourist...

Pros: Interesting Architecture, Good exchange rate, Great food
Cons: Very dirty, over-rated, very crowded
I went on a 2 week long trip all around Europe just this year during Spring Break with my school. Of course the place that everyone wanted to go to was Paris since everyone talks about it. You hear such great things about it, how interesting and nice...
