Trocadero - Paris

We have reservations for the first week of May at "Le Parc Trocadero". Any suggestions for area restaurants or sights?

Other than the Trocadero steps and the Eiffel Tower, I don't think of the area as particulaly special for sights. And I think the area is sort of poor for restaurants. Yet, that doesn't matter. The metro is easy. Follow suggestions for any places in Paris -- it's easy to get around.

A simple google map search yields these restaurants within walking distance, all of them recognizable names:

La Table de Joel Robuchon - 16, Avenue Bugeaud 75016
Lina's Sandwiches - 66, Avenue Victor Hugo 75016
Bistro Romain Victor Hugo - 6, Place Victor Hugo 75116
Le Café de l'Homme - Square du Trocadéro 75116
Citrus Etoile - 6, Rue Arsène Houssaye 75008
Noura - 27, Avenue Marceau 75116

The hotel is situated between Trocadero and V.Hugo metro stops - I know there are a couple of posters (BTilke being one) who like the 16th.

The area contains the Arc de Triomphe, and the Musee de Vin is a fun stop. You can also visit the contemporary art gallery at Palais de Tokyo, and a good walk will take you to Musee Marmottan.

We had a birthday dinner last summer on the terrace of the Cafe L'Homme and it was fabulous -- both the food and the view sitting at the feet of the Eiffel Tower! If the weather does not permit sitting on the terrace, a window seat would almost be as wonderful!

Enjoy!

Don't forget the Palais de Chaillot, with it's new museum in addition to the de l'homme and Marine museums.
