There are so many districts to stay in. I was there in June and stayed at Littre Hotel in St Germain. It was walking distance from a major train station (Montparnasse) - we walked and had luggage.

If you are so inclined you can use the Velip bikes and get around very easily from there. We rode to The Eiffel Tower, Champs Elysees, The Louvre and more.

The room at the Littre was very nice, quite spacious clean and reasonably priced. The staff were good with English, in fact we noticed that most guests seemed to be from USA.

One very 'touristy' but memorable thing for us was walking to the Eiffel Tower at night and watching the lights while we scoffed on Nutella, strawberry, banana and cream filled crepes. The crepes are ridiculously priced but well worth it!

For the more distinguished traveller Paris has so many places to visit. You'll love it.

Also, allow some time to walk both sides of the Champs Elsyees. Car enthusiasts love the Mercedes, Renault, etc stores. Your wife might like the LV store amongst others. The restaurant called Fouquets is pretty special, but like the crepes is pretty expensive. Some of the back streets surrounding Champs Elsyees are worth the walk. Endless high end shopping (I kept my credit card firmly in my pocket).

Another spot for a nice meal is at one of the brasseries around the Trocadero, which is across the river from the tower (up past the stairs).

Enjoy the trip!
