An elegant guide to Paris

You always wonder as you read guide books how much the bar owner or hotel proprietor knew about the writer -- did they guess the guest was covering travel? I don't really trust most of the guides on food and hotels. This book is a delightful solution to that dilemma. Everybody knows the Georges V and the Bristol can pamper you if they want to or that the dry martini's at the Ritz bar remain flawless. Caroline O'Connell's deftly written guide tips its hat to obvious elegance but it's equally on target with swell places whose tariff does not require you to squander a fortune.Her taste is flawless and she writes for those who travel in style. You can bank her recommendations. Concise, small enough to pack and light enough to carry, we've found it by far the best and most useful guide to Paris. No book has it all, but this has a lot and what it has is more than worthwhile. It's really quite well done and not to be missed.

A marvelous find and totally unlike any other book on Paris!

As a former resident of Paris(and moving back in September for college)I thought I had read every book there was on the City of Light, so I was pleasantly suprised to come upon this one which was very informative and well written. Many of the tips given were ideas I had never even considered. Examples of this would be having tea at the Ritz Hotel, and calling the fashion houses for invitations to their shows. Also, I found many places that I added to my address book and am eager to peruse in the future. This is the perfect book to take with you on the flight over and to refer to for the duration of your trip. A great find at a very reasonable price. Vive la France!

A fabulous and romantic guide Paris.

This book is a definite must for any woman visiting Paris! It will help one experience that "joie de vivre" that only Paris can offer. It's a great guide to understanding and adapting to traveling in the city, further, it's a wonderful guide to meeting that man of your dreams in the most "romantic city in the world." Ms O'Connell should write a sequel on getting married in Paris!
