Hi Everyone
I am planning a surpise trip for my wife and I. I have some questions that I hope you can help me with.

1)I need a few options for Paris hotels. I want something close to all the major attractions in a safe neighborhood. Can you give me any suggestions. I dont need anything to fancy. 2 or 3 star is fine. 200-250 cdn a night

2) what is the easiest way to get form the airport ( cdg ) to my hotel?

3) An odd question: If you were to travel to paris/france again what would you change from your last trip?

4) any must see's in France?

1)The first time I went to Paris I rented an apartment in the Latin Quarter, but it was quite expensive. I went again this past March and stayed at the Hotel Campanile Paris X - Gare du Nord. It was 92 euros per night and was lovely because you feel as if you are in a small Parisian neighbourhood (i.e. local bakeries, not too busy, nice views from window). It was a nice hotel with a great continental breakfast. It is close to the Louis-Blanc metro station which makes it easy to get around to all the must-sees in Paris.
2)From CDG I took the metro to my hotel (it's easy and cheap), but make sure you have a metro map because it is very annoying being lost on the metro lugging around your suitcases!
3)I would spend more time there of course! 1 week just isn't enough.
4)Definitely go to Versailles (a short RER ride from Paris). If you are able to visit any other cities, I suggest Carcassonne (a walled medieval city), Avignon (Palais des Papes and Pont St-Benezet), Mont St-Michel (abbey perched on a hilltop island), and Juno Beach in Normandy.

1* from the airport take the RER to the center ( chatelet ) then depending on where is your Hotel

look at ratp ( metro )

2*Versailles has to be done

3* Sacre coeur and Pigalle aswell

4* the Eiffel tower, take her at nicht to the parc just under the eiffel tower with a bottle of wine and wait the beginnig of an hour 21.00/22.00 and it sparkles , to be just under it is really coool !

5*hotels : hotels-paris.fr/en/
