The hotel is just minutes to fine dining, shopping, and entertainment. The property is close to the Arc-de-Triomphe, one of the landmarks of Napoleon's imperial capital, the Arc de Triomphe offers an admirable perspective of Paris and the twelve avenues converging in a star shape. Video projection every ten minutes entitled "the great moments of the Arc de Triomphe". Not far from the hotel you can visit the Eiffel Tower: This towering edifice was built for the World Fair of 1889, held to commemorate the centenary of the French Revolution. Named after its designer, Gustave Eiffel, it stands 320m (1050ft) high and held the record as the world's tallest structure until 1930. Initially opposed by the city's artistic and literary elite - who were only affirming their right to disagree with everything - the tower was almost torn down in 1909. Salvation came when it proved an ideal platform for the antennas needed for the new science of radiotelegraphy. When you're done peering upwards through the girders, you can visit any of the three public levels, which can be accessed by lift or stairs. Just south-east of the tower is a grassy expanse that was once the site of the world's first balloon flights and is now used by teens as a skateboarding arena or by activists bad-mouthing Chirac. |
