Me and Paris, it's a love hate kind of relationship. The first time I went there I booked 2 tickets for myself and my current boyfriend. We were so excited, planned all the places we wanted to see. Right before our romantic weekend, I got dumped. I paid the difference to change his name on the ticket to my sisters name. I was so grateful that my sister could take his place, however well in Paris - I was heartbroken. A couple of years later I won a stay at Prince de Galles and took my best friend who lived in Paris for over 1 year... Finally, me and Paris lived happily ever after.
Luxury Hotels
Prince De Galles
Where we stayed, exceptional service and a breakfast to die for. I loved the open kitchen in the middle of the restaurant where you can order omelettes, pancakes or eggs florentine.
Plaza Athénée The famous "Sex and The City" Hotel where Carrie is staying when she moves to Paris. The picture above is from their Signature Eiffel Suite with this spectacular view of the Eiffel Tower.
Best Restaurants
Kong
I had their Truffle Pasta which was out of this world. Gorgeous view with glass ceiling and glass walls. Lovely atmosphere for both dates or before going out with friends.
Miss Kô
One of the best Sushi meals I've ever had. Cool, trendy and authentic. Very friendly staff and unique interior design with tv-screens installed below the glass tables, showing videos and images of Asian Art.
Lifestyle
City Bikes
This is a must, rent one of those City Bikes and bike around the City. What many don't know is that you actually can cycle past the Louvre, Arc de Triomphe and the Eiffel Tower. An excellent way to see the top sights without standing in busy crowds or lines with other tourists.
Picnic
Go to a Parisienne food store, buy some strawberries, cheese and bred (baguettes of course) and go to location of your choice and ENJOY. Highly recommended locations:
Right in front of the Eiffel Tower
Jardin du Luxembourg
Place de Vosges
Don't leave Paris without visiting...
Monsieur Mouche - Rooftop Bar
Last but not least, this cozy rooftop bar is located on the Seine river right across from the Eiffel Tower. Drink fresh summer cocktails under fairy lights and see the Eiffel Towers glittering light show.
