Taking my wife and I to Paris and Barcelona in May. Looking for any recommendations for centrally located hotels (not looking to break the bank, but location is important. Staying a week in each city.
Also looking for any daytrip ideas aside from the typical Versailles type excursion.
Appreciate the help.
Stay anywhere in the center of town and you should be fine.
Three years ago we stayed on the left bank at Hotel Spirit. Very cool place.
You can't go wrong with either of those in Paris. We stayed at a larger hotel when we were there last month. Very nice but the two above will give you the real feel of Paris. Last month we brought my brother and his wife to see where we stayed previously and they agreed if they come back they would stay at one of those hotels.
Check them out online and let me know.
Since that trip last month I have been binge watching Band of brothers, the Longest day and Saving Private Ryan.
