Pros: they appreciate if you try to speak French Cons: you may be ignored if you don't know French at all
I've been to France 4 or 5 times and had in general good experiences.
One thing that kind of disappointed me was an experience on the railway station (Gare Du East, I think) when my girl-friend at that time and I tried to purchase train tickets. ...

Pros: Super location, super price, and the staff treats you great! Cons: Can be hard to get a room in summer months.
After HOURS upon hours of researching where to stay in Paris, I finally found the perfect budget hotel! Le Grand Hôtel Lévêque, in the 7th arrondissement, or district. It is less than $50 for a single, and a little more for doubles and triples....

Pros: Ability to get around easily, friendly people who almost all spoke English Cons: Exchange rate of the Euro to the US Dollar
AH - Paris in the springtime. What a wonderful time of the year. We came to Paris for one specific reason. To go to the French Open Tennis at Roland Garros. But why come to Paris only for tennis, when there are so many wonderful experiences there? ...

Pros: As beautiful as the travel guides say Cons: Even more expensive than Great Britain
During the Christmas holidays, I scouted potential sites in Europe for future holiday venues, so I took vacation from my assignment in the UK and spent short break in Paris.
The trip was a last minute deal for flight and 2 nights in Paris....

Pros: wine,food,sights Cons: weather; dogs- watch where you are walking!
It still seems to be a little-known fact that you can take the train from London to Paris, and vice-versa. At least none of the Americans in our hotel knew this.
Eurostar does the trip in 3 hours, center to center, thru the Channel Tunnel, and the...

Pros: architecture, urban planning, culture, public transit, bakeries Cons: car fumes
I first went to Paris for a week back in October 2005. I'm fortunate in that I have a friend living on Ile-St Louis so I didn't have to deal with paying for lodging. This review will be an overview of things I enjoyed that you might enjoy, also. ...

Pros: romantic, beautiful, great view of the city Cons: many tourists
I was surprised when I looked at Paris and there were many places of interest to write about but no Sacre Coure. I personally believe that it is one of the best things to see in Paris.
Well if your a romantic anyway.
Me a hopeless...

Paris wasn't in our original plan for a month-long tour of Europe, and several people suggested we avoid it, but we were pleasantly surprised with the city.
Upon arrival in one of Paris' many train stations, you'll probably be approached by...

Pros: VERY novel. I should have expected THIS in PARIS! Cons: Too bad that we (USA) are not mature enough socially have this here.
Strangely enough, using the Toilet in Paris was an enlightening experience, one that will be remembered by me and my best friend for the rest of our lives.
After just arriving in Paris and checking into our room, we went on a tour...

Pros: Public Transport, Excellent central tourist office, Versailles, the public parks and gardens Cons: traffic, expensive food, litter, sleazy areas such as Montmartre that detract from the nicer areas,
Review Topic: Overview
It may be one of the oldest cliches regarding travel to say that everyone should visit Paris at least once, but last Summer I fell for it hook line and sinker. Arriving at the end of a whistle stop tour of...

Pros: Wonderful People Cons: Expensive City
I don't care what other people say about the French. I found the people to be especially caring, and helpful.
I was in Paris last Passover. I had been away from home (U.S.) for a few months and it was very important to me to be able to...

Pros: Fabulous food, great museums, beautiful architecture. Did I mention the food? Cons: Crowded, noisy, polluted, but does it matter?
Is it still possible to travel to Paris on a budget? Yes, now more than ever.I bought a round trip ticket, from San Diego, through priceline.com for $475, all taxes and airport fees included. This was $125 cheaper than the cheapest fare cited by my...
