Paris City of Light, Hotels or Apartment Rentals ?
The dramatic increase of French hotel prices over the past few years, especially in Paris, have led many tourists to shorten their holiday or simply pick other European destinations to spend their vacation.
However, some wise travellers have already pitched on a far more money-saving accommodation system which, it appears, may well become as popular as the traditional hotel business in the years to come.
Indeed, weekly apartment rental has become for many the best way to experience the city of lights without putting further strain on their holiday budget.
If the advantageous financial aspect of vacation rentals is a well-known fact, it is also the best way to live in the city just like one of its native inhabitants and forget about all the hassle of “not being at home”. Don’t want to go to the restaurant? You can have a romantic dinner at home! Don’t want to go to the bar? You can have a bottle of wine in your own private living room with your guests! It goes without saying that renting an apartment in the very heart of a city is certainly the closest way to experience Paris just like a true Parisian would.
Choosing your pied-à-terre in the city is now as simple as booking a hotel room and can be done in a few clicks. And with such a large choice of apartments or studios, travellers can now find an accommodation that will match their expectations in terms of size, budget or location, be it for adventurous backpackers or luxury travel addicts.

Help answer the question about Paris
Going to Paris 03Oct, how long will it take to get a passport and what is the process?I plan on flying out of Cincinnati/Northern KY Airport on a direct fight to Paris on 03Oct to see a concert on 05Oct. I then plan on flying home to Cincinnati, from Paris, on 06Oct. When should I begin the passport process to ensure I have it on time (I realize I may have to pay more at this point for quicker service), and what is the process?

Paris is one of the most beautiful places in the world.I've been there in summer,it was so great.I visited the Disneyland for 3 days and then I had 5 whole days to enjoy the life of Paris.you will never get bored,there are so many things to do .definitely go to Eiffel tower during night,it's just like a magic.A huge gold tower and is reflected in the seine's water.then we have notre dame situated on a small island in the river seine,the Paris opera and champ Elysee.Versailles were very impressive too,don't miss it,the whole french revolution was based there,you can see the glorious gardens of Marie Antoinette and the luxurious rooms of the king. but Paris has a lot more to offer you than these,you can walk to the narrow streets and enjoy the classic buildings or go to la defense,the biggest economical center in Europe and have a lot of choices for you shopping. Also you can get a taste of the night life of Paris,moulin rouge e.t.c.
You have to go one day,it's really great,I had a great time and I'm definitely going there again in the future. It deserves 100% the name for the city of light.
i wish you manage to go there sometime good luck
btw I forgot to tell you about monparnase,a modern tower in the center of Paris where you can have a view of the city from the top.
It's usually best to get your tickets in advance so you can stick to a schedule and not have to worry about the train being sold out and all of that. I would take a train from Paris to London, it would be easiest to find a train from a big city (such as Paris). You're very lucky to be in a study-abroad program, do you like it? Would you recommend it?
Good luck!
You should try Eurolines.
In general, most tourist attractions in Paris do not require advance reservations (nor do they take it). If you want to avoid queueing and save some time though, I'd say look into getting Paris Museum Pass (http://www.parismuseumpass.com/en/home.php ) which is valid for many of the major sights in Paris including Louvre, Musee d'Orsay, Versailles etc but unfortunately not Eiffel Tower. The pass allows access usually through a separate queue and it moves along quickly. The only place where special fast access is not available is the tower of Notre Dame, where access is limited that there's only a number of people allowed at any time at the tower level.
However, I've found, if there's exhibition at the Grand Palais that interests you (I've just checked – there's a special Warhol exhibition during your trip : http://www.rmn.fr/Warhol-s-Wide-world ) it's advisable to buy ticket online which has time allocation to it. Queues at Grand Palais is notoriously long and at the last exhibition re Picasso, when my friends and I couldn't get tickets online (they were sold out), we ended up queueing for over 3 hours despite being there early in the morning! Therefore Galeries Nationales du Grand Palais is perhaps one place where it is smart to buy ticket in advance (http://rmn.fnacspectacles.com/place-spectacle/manifestation/Exposition-LE-GRAND-MONDE-D-ANDY-WARHOL-WARHO.htm ).

Oh for goodness sake, Taken is a movie, a thriller, not a documentary of Paris. It's a great movie, but I've been travelling to/fro Paris several times a year since I was 18 and I have not yet once been pickpocketed (touch wood and let's hope it keeps that way).
Paris in general is a very safe city, but like anywhere else in the world, keep your wits around you and be aware of your environment. Don't go wandering someplace that you're unfamiliar with when it's dark and there's very little people around. Don't flash your belongings to the world and take good care that your belongings are securely kept. Don't drink/eat something offered by a stranger. If you're out for the evening don't let your drinks be out of your sight or else just buy a new one. The usual things and precautions that you would take regardless where you are, you know.
Walking the city in the central area is very much the thing to do (you'll miss the magnificent sights of Paris with the lights otherwise) during the evening, but you may want to avoid areas such Pigalle (red district area) and Montmartre, and parts of the city that's near the peripherique.
Stay safe and have fun in Paris.

Wow… she’s hotter than the real Paris
way hotter than paris
better song than original
Paris is like all capitals. It has extremely expensive properties in the middle of the city and a variety of suburbs which range from desirable middle-class area where properties are expensive like Neuilly, to poor down-at-heel areas like Saint-Denis or Clichy-sous-bois where poor immigrants have conglomerated and where there were serious riots four years ago when the police was attacked with petrol bombs and cars were set on fire.
Accommodation is very expensive. To rent you have to think of 1 200 Euros a month for something decent like a small studio apartment. To buy a small house in a quiet area like Menilmontant, with living, dining -kitchen, three bedrooms and a bathroom, a tiny attic, a cellar and a small back garden, the price is over 910.000 Euros.
Having said all this, before even looking at properties near Paris, you should investigate if you can move to France where immigration laws are now those of the Schengen zone. Basically any person from a country outside the Schengen zone is not allowed to move there for a period exceeding 90 days unless they have been granted a long stay visa. They must also obtain a work permit and a living permit. These are now rarely given, unless you have outstanding qualifications or have been offered a job there by an organisation that can justify not employing someone from the EU, for instance working at the American embassy, or teaching a very specialised subject in a university.

I agree: BAD BAD BAD idea. Coming by train you will be lucky to arrive directly in downtown Paris so why stay at a hotel far out in the suburbs if you are coming to visit Paris?
You could walk between the Eiffel Tower and the Louvre (3 km = under 2 miles) or take the métro or bus. Check the http://www.ratp.fr website to download maps and other info. How long it takes to cover the whole of Paris depends on your idea of sightseeing. 2 days is a bare minimum to get a glimpse of the main attractions. But you could stay weeks and not have time to enjoy everything either.
No need to take tours unless maybe those bicycle tours, they are kinda fun and you learn a lot. A less sporty way of seeing the main attraction is the boat tours on the Seine. If you are traveling alone and haven't prepared your trip much hiring a tour guide for yourself can be a good idea for half a day or so, otherwise forget it. Your hotels will have brochures or you can get a list or tour guides from the tourist office (www.parisinfo.com). Don't go on any of the big tours, they are ridiculous and a complete waste of time.
