Cheap Breaks to Paris

Following on from the potentially devastating news for Spain, as thousands of holiday-makers are axing trips to the Costas, Times Online has reported this week on how the tourism industry in Paris is facing difficult times.

According to the report by Chris Haslam, international arrivals are down by 8.1% on last year, hotel occupancies by more than 10%, and the queues for the Eiffel Tower – celebrating its 120th birthday this year – have rarely been shorter.

The growing crisis has prompted hotels to slash prices by up to 70%, in an attempt to win back tourists to the world’s most visited city.

So if you fancy a cheap Paris break, there’s never been a better time to grab a bargain.

I am planning a theatre break for my parents, and would like to book a hotel central to the victoria palace theatre – it should be nice, as it is for their 40th anniversary. Any help would be appreciated.

The whole area is nothing BUT hotels, so you should have no trouble finding one ! ! !

we want to have a short breaks from london to paris for 4 or 5 nights with eurostar. Any body knows any place I can get the best price for the whole package

The 2 best priced packages I bought with the Eurostar were found on lastminute.com, my partner and I went to Brussels for 3 days and also to Paris a few months later. Might be worth the try, I don’t know if ours were specials or just standard fares but both times the hotels were ideally located and they were very good
