Pros: Beauty, ambience Cons: none
I also stayed at the hotel mentioned in TRAVELJAM's article. What a treat! Waking up to fresh baking bread in the morning, hearing the music from down on the cobblestone street, and just a 5 minute walk to a view of La Tour Eiffel!
One morning,...

Pros: lots of neat stuff to see and do. Cons: surly shopkeepers who do not like Americans.
Went to Paris in October this year. I had never been there on the ground before and always been stuck in airports previously. I was pleased and fascinated with this heady intoxicating place. I had heard tales about smelly and nasty the place was. This...

Pros: Beautiful Cons: Very Busy
My family and I went to Paris last summer. There were seven of us. We stayed there for only four days because we were continuing on to Ireland for. We stayed in a very beautiful place in the city. It was not located in a tourist area. This was the best...

Pros: charming architecture, abundance of art Cons: somehow dirty
Don't get me wrong, Paris is a beautiful city, but overall, I think it is overrated.
Perhaps my expectations were just too high. Everybody refers to Paris as "the most romantic city in the world", but I waited and waited to start feeling...

Pros: Food, quick pace, music, art, architecture, Europe! Cons: Not enough time there!
The first time I visited Paris I went with a tour group. I only got to spend about 4 days in this wonderful city, due to our tight schedule; I could have used a lot more time. Paris reminds me of New York City in the way that it breathes, moves, and ...

Pros: Great for practicing French, beautiful sights, people are very nice Cons: Too many people speak English, ruining the atmosphere
Paris, the city of love. An amazing city for students, families, or anyone wishing to see beautiful sights. It is a city of history and learning. Students are admitted free to any museum in Europe, so if you are a student, I suggest you take advantage...

Pros: Museums, Art, Food, Night Tours Cons: Filth, Prejudice Citizens of France
Paris is a beautiful city. I traveled to Europe a few years back and had the pleasure of visiting Paris. My favorite thing about Paris was the wonderful museums, the food, and the architecture.
Make sure you set aside a whole day to tour the...

Pros: Many Cons: none
Being a USAF spouse, I had the chance of a life time to visit several European countries while stationed in Germany. I have to say Paris was the all time favorite.
As many wouldn't think, Paris was relatively inexpensive. The fees for places...

Pros: Unique and diverse. Cons: Very expensive.
Paris is a thriving city on the river Seine. The city is loud and alive as soon as you open your window you are overwhelmed by the buzz of city. Its astonishing cathedrals, monuments and diversity are strong enough to lure one into the city forever....

Pros: Seeing things you've only heard about. Cons: To expensive
Paris....
To most that have never been there, it's the dream vacation. There those who have the chance to go year after year. On the other hand we have gone and who will never return, why?
I feel the need to tell you that I...

Pros: Musee d'Orsay, good hotel Cons: Taxi drivers, Versailles
In February 1999, my husband and I spent five nights in Paris at the Hotel de St-Germain, a quirky but charming inn in the St-Germain-des-Pres district. I was seven months pregnant at the time, which somewhat hampered our walking around (as did the...

Pros: The majestic view from the top of the Eiffel Tour; French Bistro food Cons: Poorly planned roads; terrible cab service; scant nightlife directly in the city
Several years ago I visited Paris, France, and unless there was another revolution, it is nearly true that this country can be difficult to tap for all of its reputed culture--unless you know the language.
Surely, when money was offered,...
