Save money in Paris – Maurice Hurand Hotels 31 mars 2008
Posted by webmaster in : Zoom , trackbackFrom London to Paris by Eurostar
It’s easy to reach Paris direct from London with Eurostar. The typical journey time from London St Pancras International to Paris Gare du Nord is just 2 hours 15 minutes.
Gare du Nord is Eurostar‘s end destination in Paris. It is clean and modern but also one of the busiest stations in Europe.
Tread lightly: you can rent bikes from Vélib’ at the Gare du Nord, a clever 24-hour rental system which allows you to drop them at a different point from which you picked them up. You can easily catch the Metro or the RER (urban bullet train); look up and follow the big, blue and white panels down the escalator. Taxis are also readily available from outside the station. For a quick bite to eat before boarding your train, you’ll find plenty of brasseries and sandwich places in and out of the station.
Save money during your stay in Paris:
1. It makes sense to buy a « carnet de dix » (a pack of 10 tickets) instead of loose tickets, as the price per unit will be less. If you’re going to be doing a lot of travelling, you might consider purchasing 1-, 2-, 3- or 5-day period passes called « Paris Visite » (calendar days, not 24-hour periods). Careful though, the user must write his or her name on the pass to ensure validity or you could face a fine.
2. Check the current interesting promotions and packages for May and this summer at the boutique hotels Maurice Hurand on the website and book directly online a hotel in Saint Germain des Prés, Invalides or Montmartre!
