Noel in Paris

thenotebook · 10-03-2009, 08:31 PM

Arriving in Paris Christmas Eve Day. Our hotel is in the 7th, and our stay runs through New Years' Day. Any tips for Christmas Eve or Christmas Day meals in that area? Do you think it's possible to find get into Notre Dame for Christmas Eve Mass? Is the Eiffel Tower open on Christmas Day? I'm mapping out an itinerary using Rick Steves and others, but any suggestions would be welcome.

Thanks

Oooh how romantic! "Noel a Paris" sounds so lovely with a French accent.

Winter time, cold days, being rugged up in warm clothes all means it's Christmas in Paris. When I first moved to Paris, it was the first time ever I'd had winter at Christmas, I'm from Australlia so we are more used to Christmas Day being very hot and going for a swim.
