Oct 2011 Athens Hotel Attalos

It`s rooftop bar looked cool.

Perfect -Good price right in the center of town
Plus free cofee and cakes in the Afternoon
Jul 2010 Paris Hotel Acacias Etoile Just a few feet away from the Arc de Triomphe, in the heart of a district known as " the hidden Village of the Champs Elyseess ",
We picked Acacias because it was not too far from the
Bus station at Porte Malliot and from the main tourist sites.
