France's capital can lay convincing claim to be the greatest city in the world - and certainly the most consistently glamorous. The sheer number of iconic places to see and explore make it pointless listing them here - it is more fun to buy a guide book and see how many you can think of before reading it. Be sure to take the time to slow down and suck in the atmosphere that is so unique to Paris - a place that refuses to be globalised and remains truly distinct. Just go! We've got plenty more city break gems for you to consider. From our hotels in Prague for a taste of central Europe to our hotels in Venice for a taste of the best ice cream in the world.
