Posted on August 6, 2014 by Paris Guide

Are you out looking for a hotel in Paris with a beautiful view? Want to combine your magnificent view with a stunning five star hotel experience?

We have earlier written an article on the best five star hotels in Paris, so if you have not read that article yet, make sure to read that one. However, there is one hotel which was not added to that list, but which by many visitors are considered to be the hotel in Paris with the best view, and that is Hotel Plaza Athenee Paris.

Hotel Plaza Athenee Paris

Hotel Plaza Athenee Paris is located only five minutes from the Champs Elysees, so as you can understand, in the heart of the city of Paris. What makes the view from the hotel stunning is that you can from several rooms and facilities in the hotel look directly towards the Eiffel Tower, something worth a lot of money, especially during the evening when the flashlights are turned on. The hotel has a magnificent restaurant led by a Michelin awarded chef, and in the minibar you can find as much as 80 kinds of drinks to choose from.

So, for a brilliant five star hotel in Paris combined with a beautiful view, go for Hotel Plaza Athenee Paris, and do not forget to choose one of the Eiffel suites (since not all rooms enjoy the beautiful view provided by the Eiffel suites).

The best view in Paris

Posted on March 26, 2012August 3, 2018 by Paris Guide

If you come to Paris and would like to visit a place with a magnificent view, everyone would tell you to visit the Eiffel tower. This landmark of Paris from the end of the 19th century is more than 300 meters high and gives you a stunning view over Paris.

But, there is another landmark, not at all that well-known, but which can be just as great to visit as the Eiffel tower in Paris. This building is 220 meters high and it is known as the Montparnasse Tower. This skyscraper is the one and only in Paris, and it was the largest in all of France until the construction of Tour First in a suburb of Paris. Still, the Montparnasse Tower is a building with 56 floors and the fastest elevator uses only 36 seconds to get from the bottom to the top. From the top of the building, you can enjoy a different panorama view of Paris than from the Eiffel Tower, and it is a great thing when the Eiffel Tower is included in the view, and you not only see everything from the top of it.

The Montparnasse Tower was finished in 1972 and was opened in 1973 and it is still standing as a solid landmark, still not that well-known in Paris. Pay a visit to it, and you will visit an attraction most tourists miss out on!

If you are looking for some other nice activity in Paris for this Easter or Spring, why not go on a wine tasting? If you would like a beer dinner or similar, maybe you should visit Prague instead!
