Spend some time getting to... by pptanner
Spend some time getting to know the neighborhood. Stay on the Left Bank; the 7th arrondissement has some great hotels, neighborhood bakeries, cafes, shops, restaurants, and a much less touristy feel than other areas of the city.From our hotel we could see the Eiffel Tower, and we loved watching the special illumination and special lighting effects put on at night to celebrate the year 2000.
The other thing we truly enjoy in Paris is having our morning coffee and croissants in our room as we get ready to go out and explore this fascinating city.
