Why Paris for a Honeymoon trip
For newlyweds, Paris works best at a slower pace: a Left Bank hideaway in Saint-Germain or a suite with a private terrace facing the Eiffel Tower, where breakfast can be served outside on spring mornings. Spend afternoons wandering the Marais or the Luxembourg Gardens, take an evening boat along the Seine as the bridges light up, and keep dinners small and candlelit rather than formal. Ask for a high floor and a balcony; in Paris, the view from your own window is the romance.
Paris set the template for the grand hotel, and it still does palace-style luxury better than anywhere: gilded salons, couture-trained service, and suites that open onto the Seine, the Tuileries or the Eiffel Tower. The city rewards travelers who want culture at arm's length, with the Louvre, haute couture houses and Michelin-starred dining all within a short walk of the best addresses.
When to go: April through June and September through October bring mild temperatures, long evenings and gardens at their best. July and August are warm and busy with visitors while many Parisians leave town, and winter is cold and gray but quieter and atmospheric around the holidays.
