The Montparnasse Tower is a high-rise building located in the 15th district of Paris, France. It was inaugurated in 1973 and is currently the tallest tower in the city with a height of 210 meters.
The Montparnasse Tower is also known as the Tour Maine-Montparnasse, in reference to the Montparnasse train station located just below. The tower was built in the 1970s, a time when high-rise buildings were considered symbols of modernity and progress. However, since its inauguration, the tower has been criticized for its austere appearance and negative impact on the urban landscape.
The 59-story Tour Montparnasse houses offices, restaurants, a shopping mall, and an observation deck at the top with a panoramic view of the city. The terrace is open to the public and is one of the tower's main tourist attractions.
The Montparnasse Tower is also known for its spectacular nighttime lighting. The lights that illuminate the tower at night are regularly changed to different colors to celebrate special events or festive occasions, making it a must-see sight for tourists and locals alike.
In conclusion, the Montparnasse Tower is an iconic building in Paris, which has been the subject of debate and controversy since its construction. Although its construction has been criticized, the tower has become a symbol of modern urbanism in Paris. It offers an exceptional panoramic view of the city and has become a popular tourist destination.
The Montparnasse Tower is easily accessible from our hotels located right next to it, near the Gaité Montparnasse and the Montparnasse train station, but also from our hotels located in Place d'Italie, near the Eiffel Tower and the Invalides, and near the Louvre and the Palais Royal.
The Eiffel Tower is one of the most famous monuments in Paris, if not the world. Located in the 7th arrondissement of Paris, it is the emblem of the city and attracts millions of visitors every year. The tower is a symbol of human ingenuity and architectural beauty.
Designed by Gustave Eiffel and inaugurated in 1889, the Eiffel Tower was built for the 1889 Paris World's Fair, which celebrated the centenary of the French Revolution. The tower was built in less than two years, a remarkable feat considering the size and complexity of the structure. It is 324 meters high, the equivalent of an 81-story building.
The Eiffel Tower is divided into three observation levels, accessible by stairs or elevators. The first level is 57 meters high and offers a panoramic view of Paris. The second level is 115 meters high and offers an even more spectacular view. Finally, the third level, at 276 meters high, offers an unobstructed view of the city and its surroundings.
In addition to the observation levels, the Eiffel Tower also houses several restaurants and stores. The Jules Verne restaurant, located on the second floor, is particularly famous for its gourmet menu and its panoramic view of Paris. The third floor also houses a bar, where visitors can enjoy a drink while admiring the view of the city.
Today, the Eiffel Tower is a universal symbol of the city of Paris and of France. It has become an icon of modern architecture and technology, representing the ingenuity and audacity of the human spirit. The tower is also a gathering place for the people of Paris and visitors from around the world.
The Eiffel Tower is easily accessible from our hotel located at two steps, but also from our hotels near the Invalides, the Louvre and the Palais Royal.
Extending from the place de la Concorde to the Arc de Triomphe, the Avenue des Champs Elysées is a place for strolling, sight-seeing and luxury shopping.
However, until a few centuries ago this entire area was nothing but marshes and fields until Marie de Medici, had a tree-lined path laid out, linking the Tuileries garden to the Place de l'Alma.
After Andre Le Nôtre's re-design of the city, the name Champs Elysées appeared in 1709. In 1724 the avenue as it appears today was laid by the Duke of Antin with fountains, wide pavements and gas-lighting being installed.
Lancel, Louis Vuitton, Omega, Cartier, Guerlain and Montblanc are just some of the luxury brands present on the famous avenue. Two palaces can also be found there: the Marriott and the Hôtel Fouquet's Barrière.
Today this avenue hosts many prestigious events including the Bastille Day parade, the finish line of the Tour de France and the New Year celebrations.
