Bonjour Paris - charming hotel and discovering Paris on foot
landmarks of Paris Tour de Eiffel Life can be full of surprises and I was so blessed to accompany my husband on a trip to Paris where we would stay for a whole week! I've been to Paris a couple of times, mostly for weekend breaks. But to soak in Paris for a week was a dream come true. My last visit to Paris was two years ago, to visit my Japanese diplomat friend who lived in a villa on Rue Faubourg - St Honore. From her living room, you can gaze at Eiffel Tower. It is prettiest at night with the glimmering lights. At the parc.. We stayed at Hotel Tilsitt Champs Elysee on Rue Brey, a four star cosy hotel, right across from the Arc de Triompe. Not complaining as this is Paris, where a night at the Sofitel or Four Season Hotel hovered around a few hundred Euros. I usually judge a hotel by its breakfast. And at the modest Tilsitt, their breakfast spread was rather good. Fresh fruit salad, a variety of yoghurt, cafe au lait, brioche aux raisin and butter
