Visiting Paris and Chocolate Shops

Paris is truly one of the most special cities of the world and I recommend everyone visit this great city at least once. Here are a couple of my recommendations on a Parisian vacation.

A vacation rental is definitely less expensive then a hotel and can often be incredibly luxurious at a great value. I would recommend staying in a hotel for a few days when you first arrive then moving to a vacation rental. Sometimes rentals are very different in person then what you find in the photos. If you start out in a hotel you have many more options. This is the area of the city I would recommend staying if you get a vacation rental (touristy locations nearby, safe and generally nicer places). If you choose a rental that is on the 6th floor of a building, make sure they have an elevator and also look to see if there's a fire escape.

I really like this hotel because it is situated in a typical Parisian neighborhood (it is a business hotel mostly). It is a bit of a walk to tourist locations but it is an easy hotel to deal with, affordable and very clean/nice. The breakfast is excellent (generally comes with your room). The front desk staff speaks excellent English also. Oh and on Sundays there's a really deluxe outdoor market right outside the hotel (incredible fresh cheese and chocolate).

This is an obscure chocolatier on a very cute street. He's an excellent chocolatier that specializes in fresh cream chocolates for his local neighborhood. His prices are reasonable, yet he is one of the best in Paris.
