Honeymoon packages in Paris

A honeymoon in Paris is so romantic that songs have been written about it. One of the leading honeymoon destinations of the world, Paris is a city built for lovers. From the top of the Eiffel Tower to the bottom of the Champs Elysees, we at The Co-operative Travel recommend our honeymoon packages in Paris for newlyweds young and old.

Tips on booking your Parisian honeymoon

Paris is a popular choice for those booking city weddings abroad – and one honeymoon destination that’s eminently romantic whatever the time of year.

Spring and early autumn are the best times to visit, with August being the hottest and most crowded month. Rather than summer when it sizzles, choose autumn when it drizzles – as Woody Allen once said, if you haven’t been kissed on a rainy Parisian afternoon, you haven’t been kissed at all.

The star rating system for Parisian hotels is based on size, rather than quality, with the top 4-star rating reserved for the largest hotels. This means that some 2-star hotels are actually of higher quality than 4-star ones – though the rooms can be quite small. The best way to ensure the quality of your hotel is with a special honeymoon package in a 3 or 4-star hotel.

Honeymoon packages to suit all budgets

Paris can be an expensive city, although there are many ways to keep the prices down. The most expensive honeymoon locations are those on the Right Bank, the St. Germain-des-Pres district on the Left Bank, and those overlooking the Eiffel Tower. 

By booking away from the tourist areas, and using the Metro to get around, you can honeymoon quite cheaply. One of the cheapest honeymoon locations is – surprisingly – Montmartre. With its mediaeval cathedral, town square lined with bars, and street artists to paint you as a couple while you wait, it is surely one of the most romantic honeymoon locations in the city.

Wining and dining

Don’t be surprised if your honeymoon package is half-board, or B & B. Parisians eat out, rather than cook at home, and it is accepted that you will do the same. Avoid the overpriced tourist restaurants, and seek out the more intimate cafes where the locals go. Prices are low, and the quality superb. No Parisian chef worth his salt will serve anything other than gourmet cuisine – especially not to a fellow Parisian!

Paris is one of the most romantic honeymoon locations in the world. Book a honeymoon package with us at The Co-operative Travel and it can be one of the most affordable too.
