The alluring “City of Lights” is hard to describe in very few words. It is even possible that you will be awestruck by its beauty to leave you speechless. The paved streets, the grand palaces and gardens, the majestic museums, and the tree-lined boulevards with the Eiffel Tower in view is always the perfect romantic getaway. Don’t get me wrong; if you are traveling with friends or family, there is also so much in store for you.
The good thing about traveling in this period is that people now have more accommodation choices appropriate for the number of people traveling, more accessible to the places in your itinerary. Airbnb Paris makes sure that you get the comfort and style of accommodation you want in no less than the City of Lights.
Before you book your Airbnb for your next trip to Paris, you may want to stay near one of these best places to visit.
The Louvre Museum
The Louvre Museum is located in the area of Paris, most visually familiar to tourists. It is called the 1st Arrondissement. You may want to stay in this area while in Paris because the famous Parisian sites like the Mona Lisa in the Louvre and the elegant gardens of Tuileries are just a stone’s throw away. But since this is a touristy area, expect the daily hustle and bustle and escalating Airbnb price.
The Eiffel Tower
No tower has ever been photographed more than the Eiffel Tower. If you haven’t had enough of it from photos or your last trip to Paris, you can book an Airbnb nearby and have a romantic window view of the Eiffel Tower as you wake up in the morning or watch it sparkle from your window view at night. Well, except that a fantastic view also comes with an excellent price.
Canal Saint-Martin
If you are looking for a bit low-key area in Paris, The Bassin de la Villette at the southern tip of Canal Saint-Martin would be the perfect place to stay. It is an area that is not too close to the city’s major sights, but it is the place where you can watch and take part in the local Parisian life. Enjoy the great nightlife along the canal’s tree-laden walkways, peppered with little independent cafes and bars.
The Champs Elysée
When your reason for traveling to Paris is not just the iconic sights but the fashion, The Champs Elysée is the place for you. If you are into shopping for high-fashion clothing and jewelry, the long boulevard from Place de la Concorde to the Arc de Triomphe is full of luxe shops that will leave you wanting more.
Montmartre
If you had enough of the city’s grandeur, an idyllic and postcard-worthy view is in Montmartre. This very picturesque hill, 130 meters above the City of Lights’ capital, is a gem in itself. It offers great cafes, shopping areas, and is rich in history. It also gives a fantastic view of Paris if you want to admire it from afar.
In these modern times, traveling conditions have gone up many notches higher by adapting to every tourist’s needs and wants. You can now enjoy the comforts of your lodging and easily explore the sights nearby, even the grandest of places, like Paris.
Canal St. Martin and Montmartre are my two favorite places in Paris!
