Our destination was in fact the Cirque de Soleil - which was performing their Corteo show in a circus big top on L'Ile de Seguin. the island has seen many changes over the years and the famous Renault bridge is bot not open to traffic.

The island has been cleared and planted with many different plants - there is a children's play area and a restaurant that has been raised well above ground level to ensure customers get a view and a cafe located below it on ground level.

It was a rather damp November Saturday we visited, but i am sure that in summer and spring weather the island will be a better place to visit.

Villa Sorel: Un charmant hotel ** au coeur de Boulogne B., Boulogne-Billancourt

 gordonilla Says:  I booked this hotel based on it's geography. It seemed a good choice and was fairly reasonably priced too! It was advertised as having rooms with garden views.It did have a view, room 43, but it was a vertical view downwards from the window. So a little misleading. That...

 robk998 Says:  I stayed here in 2005 and would go back. The facilites were excellent and the staff was friendly. The place is a good value and an excellent alternative to the more expensive places within the city limits of Paris. It is a short walk to the Metro and to restaurants and shops...

This seems to be a socially responsible restaurant and had some good fair-trade offers to tempt customers. It was a late Saturday afternoon but the service was first rate! We were two of 4 customers; service was good and pleasant.

Favorite Dish: excellent coffee and try a citrone tarte

We called in to Cafe Renaud for coffee and cake. However we ended up eating a little more than that. the atmosphere was good, and the tv was showing a good selection of programmes.

Sadly the staff were a little full of themselves, and no matter what the customer wished for, they gave you what they wanted to give you.

The food was good though.

Favorite Dish: not sure what to suggest; it seems to be a run of the mill restaurant with a lively buzz and a menu for you to use!

Open every day between 12.30- 14.30 and then again from 19.00 to 23.30. The restaurant caters for functions and has a terrace too. the staff and service are excellent; the food is wonderful. It seemed to be a populart location and there was even a birthday party taking place during our visit.

Favorite Dish: The only thing I ever order - Chicken Byriani
