Beating the Eiffel Tower queues - and some great hotel offers

One of our popular features from our Paris city centre hotels is this post's headline offer for hotels near the Eiffel Tower. It is among the city's most visited attractions, and the question is often asked if there is any way around the long queues that can often taken the enjoyment out of a visit to the tower.

Well, with a little planning you can avoid the worst of it - but it does require a bit of strategy. First off, you need to make an early start; something that makes good sense anyhow if you are to get the most out of your day in Paris. What many people don't know is that you can purchase pre-paid tickets online. These tickets are for the elevator only and so you must pass on the option to use the stairs. But you also pass on the waiting crowds, and that is the good part. All you need to do is print your tickets at home, and make sure to arrive just before the 9.00 am start. This will see you making a lofty ascent while the terrain snaking lines of people wonder how long is it going to take to even reach the ticket desk.

Another option - this time using the stairs - is to queue for the south pillar or Pilier Sud entrance. This is a quicker and a shorter line. Not as quick, mind you, as buying an online ticket, but still reasonable and bearable in terms of wait-time. Again, you need to be there and in the queue before the 9.00 am opening. In all honesty, it's worth it ....... and for a little effort you save time in the long run.

You will see some incredible panoramic vistas of the city as you ascend the tower. You may also be able to see your hotel, and to make sure you do here is the offer -

Hotel Offers near the Opera Paris

Paris Opera are presenting some marvellous opera productions during the course of the year. These include La Fille du Regiment, les Noces de Figaro and Les Contes d'Hoffman which was Offenbach's last work. Any of these will prove a pure joy for opera lovers. But even if you do not have the time or the inclination to attend the opera it is still worthwhile to visit the Palais Garnier at place de l'Opéra. Every day, the opera house is open to visitors giving everyone a chance to appreciate the splendour of its sculptures, frescoes and the many ornate features that gild the elegant foyers, auditorium and striking grand staircase.

Included in our current promotions for Paris city centre hotels is this post's main feature for hotels near the Opera district.
