Maybe your perfect Paris city break involves lots of eating and drinking in Belle Epoque
brasseries. If culture's your thing, catch Musée d'Orsay exhibitions and ballet
at the gilded Palais Garnier on your weekend break in Paris. Or stick to the
Champs-Elysées if your idea of short breaks in Paris means
shopping or clubbing. Explore Montmartre for a Paris city break that's
all about romance.
Dining and unwinding on Paris city breaks
Let the first evening of your Paris city break unfold with a relaxing meal in the
Marais district. Begin your Paris weekend break as you mean to go on, and spend or
save. Splash out at bohemian chic Saint Germain restaurants or dine at
inexpensive, hidden places in hilly Montmartre – a real find for
city breakers in Paris.
Special place to stay in Paris
On your city break in Paris, choose a hotel in an area of Paris that suits you. The
20 Parisian districts – or arrondissements – curl
clockwise from the Louvre. Choose a central Paris hotel for a Paris city
break viewing the major museums and attractions. Stay near buzzy Bastille for
nightlife on your Haussmannian doorstep. Or opt for quieter neighbourhoods in the
north Marais or Latin Quarter if city breaks in Paris evoke slow mornings at the
local pâtisserie eating crumbly, freshly baked croissant.
Things to do on Paris city breaks
It helps to have a plan in mind for your Paris city break. Sightseers tick off major
galleries, from the Louvre to the Musée d'Orsay,
before uncovering hidden gems like the Museum of Romantic Life (Musée de
la Vie Romantique) with its courtyard garden. Shopaholics on short breaks in
Paris browse the Galeries Lafayette and Printemps grand department
stores and hip Marais boutiques. Clubbers on city breaks in Paris party in
mainstream Champs-Elysées or the more alternative
Oberkampf, pausing only for chocolat chaud (hot chocolate) at
dawn.
