Room With A View: Paris

hotel terrace eiffel tower view

Yes, this is just about the best ever. I gasped when I saw this view.

I hope you’ll forgive me if this post is short, but we got in later than we’d hoped yesterday due to horrible traffic snarls so we’re going to hit the ground running this morning. More from Paris soon!!

À bientôt!

  1. I love those roofs. I just learned that the style was developed to replace the medieval wood structures with stone vaults holding up the roofs, which accounts for the shape. The wood had a bad habit of burning down.

  2. The lighting. The raindrops on the table–crumbs of the previous evening’s downpour perhaps. The Eiffel tower peeking out in the near distance. Made me very emotional for certain reasons. Enjoy your stay!!

  3. I love Paris roof top views! Looks like you’ve landed in a gorgeous spot. Enjoy your Paris visit. I’m always looking forward to your next post!

  4. Tomorrow (early today where you are) is le 14 juillet. I’m not one for huge crowds and military parades – though France does them very well – but there will be a lot of neighbourhood celebrations tomorrow, such as les bals des pompiers, a more down-to-earth way of recognizing local heroes and having a good time.

  5. And the 14th culminates with fireworks at Tour Eiffel, so you’ll have an excellent view! Probably haven’t started yet … summer days are long in Paris.

    Is that a hotel room or a pension/rental? The balcony and table look more residential.

    1. lagatta, we’re about 20 minutes out, and watching the pre-fireworks concert on French channel 2…really wonderful!!

  6. How fun that we were in Paris at the same time! Gorgeous view! Off to check out more of your time in Paris. I’m still working my way through our time in Italy on my blog. So much photo inspiration on our travels, right?
    Enjoy your next adventures to NYC and Japan!!
