Will we want air conditioning in a hotel in Paris in late June?

Do you know anyone who can predict the weather?? <BR>Seriously, in early September I was glad to have an air cooled room. <BR>Two factors come into play for me. <BR>1. Paris can be humid because of the frequent showers. Having ac means I can be comfortable even if it is raining and I must keep the windows shut. <BR>2. Having ac means I can keep the windows shut and the street noise out. <BR> <BR>We stayed in two hotels without AC, one in Vienna and one in Paris. I know what I will try to get from now on. <BR> <BR>

it depends on what you are used to. <BR> <BR>i grew up in the southern US, so it wasn't that bad to me, but my boyfriend from toronto thought he was going to die! <BR> <BR>might want to request AC just to be on the safe (cool!) side.

AC enables you to keep the windows closed. Last two hotels i stayed at became very noisy in the wee hours of the morning. AC would have been nice. <BR>Rooms, being small, become very stuffy.

I was in Paris in early June. The hotel room we booked had air conditioning, even though we weren't specifically looking for that. Boy, was I glad that we had AC. Out of the 5 days there, it was in the 80's 3 of those days, & humid every day. We spent very little time in the room other than sleeping, but it was sure nice & relaxing & refreshing to have a cool room after long days of walking around, especially after the day trip to Versailles. Having that AC in the room also made us that much more refreshed for the next day's touring.

I grew up in south Alabama, which is quite hot and humid, without a/c. <BR>I had rather have than not have it!!!!! <BR> <BR>I forgot the point that without a good night's rest, I just feel up to tackling Paris in the morning. With the AC in the room, we were well rested and I think it helped may last year's trip a most enjoyable experience. When you figure now much total you are spending on the trip, the extra money spent on a comfortable hotel room is not very much. <BR>Of course there is the straw that broke the camel's back analogy. But still, I will forego a meal at a fancy place to have the money to pay for sleeping comfort.

Oops, another typo. Groan. <BR>I meant to say that without I good night's rest I DO NOT feel up to tackling Paris first thing in the morning. Attribute it to a brain that has seen too many mind boggling sights and sites.
