Two weeks in Paris
 
My husband and I were scheduled to spend our 25th wedding anniversary (Sept 11, 2001) in New York - nothing more to say. We have finally settled on Paris in May;11-25th. I have read all the posts and have spent countless hours searching out apartments and hotel rooms but am now desperate to know if someone can tell me "specifically" where I should be calling. I have decidedthat we want to stay in either the 1st, 4th, or the 5th arrondissement. We would rather stay in an apartment on a bit larger size as my husband's brother may join us for a few days. I know I have left it late but if someone could help me out I would really appreciate it.

maybe if you put Paris in the text search box and check there first you will have a start to your research.You really should get a move on, hotels book up fast in the spring.

Hello Beverley:<BR><BR> You better hurry and make your reservation. The only good thing is June<BR>starts the real busy season.<BR><BR>I spent two weeks in Paris three years ago in September<BR>and stayed on the Ile St. Louis which<BR>is the Island on the other side of Notre Dame(ILe la Cite) I stayed in a apartment 4th district right between the<BR>left and right bank of Paris the Perfect spot. I made my reservations<BR>through Barclay International out of NY.<BR>barclayweb.com Some one in Paris met me<BR>and my friend at the apartment with the keys and the prices were reasonable.<BR>The longer you stay the cheaper it got. One week one price, 2 weeks cheaper.<BR>Good luck and have a great time. We even did 3 side trips to Hornfluer in Normandy,Ile de Re in SW France and Amsterdam and still had plenty of time in Paris. The above trips were all day trips. Ellen
