Where is the best place for hotels in Paris also what is the best way to get around?

It depends on what you mean by best. Certainly the most convenient is to stay in the center in arrondissements 4, 5 & 6.





Getting around in Paris is very easy as the city is very compact and has an excellent system of public transportation. The great majority of popular tourist sights are in a narrow band on either side of the Seine.





With good planning there are many days when a tourist will be able to walk most of the day as after seeing one popular sight you'll often find the next is only a few blocks away.




You can get a 1 day pass for the "Velib" rent-a-bike scheme for 1 Euro (pay by credit card). You pick up a bike at any one of the hundreds of racks throughout Paris, and leave it at another within half an hour. As many times as you like in a 24 hour period on the same 1 euro ticket, provided no one journey is more than half an hour.


Great way of seeing the city.

The metro is awesome. It takes a little while to figure out how the map works exactly, but it can take you all over Paris in no time.
