Fri Jun 27 9:00am - Mon Jun 30 10:00am
Notes
7 Avenue de Suffren. Metro Station: RER Eiffel Tower - Bir-Hakeim


At the edge of the 7th arrondissement, on the Left Bank, this bright, spacious apartment offers a unique view of the Eiffel Tower from the living room.

At night enjoy lovely panoramic views of Paris from the 12th floor - the Eiffel Tower, Orsay, the Sacre-Coeur, Trocadero, Invalides or just bask in the sun on the charming terrace (377 sq.ft).

It is an upscale and residential area, very elegant and trendy, very close to Paris main tourist attractive points. The Hilton Hotel is the next building on the Avenue.
The apartment has been fully redecorated (Deluxe Contemporary art style) and can accomodate up to 3 people very comfortably.

Here we are planning a dream honeymoon in Paris, at the very last minute. We leave next Thursday. We will have our Rick Steve's PARIS and JUST ENOUGH FRENCH. Still need a hotel, and the clothes!

We'd love any suggestions.
