What travellers are saying
- NeoAxionVancouver, WA641 contributionsGorgeous monument! I didn't realize you could walk to the top. If you are able to, I would definitely make the climb up. The view of the city is absolutely stunning, especially during sunset. It's not too bad of a climb, most people should be able to make it.Written October 9, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- I visited this place🇺🇸🇫🇷🇨🇭🇬🇷🇬🇧Israel35,326 contributionsPROS
* Brilliant and famous ornate decorated structure
* Elaborate fancy sculptures
* Elaborate fancy lamp posts
* Connects the Grand and Petit palais to the Invalides
CONS
* Busy traffic
"I VISITED THIS PLACE"...
... as a return visit from October 2019. I visited because it is famous and has a history. I crossed from the Grand and Petit palais areas on my way to visit (again) the museum of Les Invalides (see my next review).
I liked crossing, being on and observing, studying, analyzing and photographing 📷 the statues (see my "helpful" 👍 photos 📷, especially of foreign tourists with the bridge as the background.
WAS IT WORTH THE COST
Yes- it is free
WOULD 'I VISIT THIS PLACE" AGAIN?
Probably, but not as a specific destination but as something that I'm passing anyway, between something and something else
ADVICE
* This is certainly worth seeing- walking on it, sailing underneath and looking from the sides of the river
* It gives a good unobstructed view of the Eiffel Tower, especially at night on the hour when it is twinkling- best to stand towards the end of the bridge, on the side that is closest to the Petit Palais ( full disclosure- I didn't stand there on this trip)Written August 21, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We enjoyed our time here.Written October 8, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- k2j2neisPhiladelphia, PA333 contributionsThe building alone is worth a visit, but it also houses a wonderfully curated art collection. The cafe and outside garden is an oasis of calm and caffeine. Really enjoyed it here.Written October 5, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- rojonevSacramento, CA18 contributionsA beautiful mansion, now a museum with quite a history background. It is next to the lovely Parc Monceau and well worth your visit. The day I was there there were only 3 other people- such a nice experience after so many lovely but crowded museumsWritten May 20, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Thomas VOakland, CA17,780 contributionsWe were surprised by a cleaned-up facade after some sand blasting. Maybe it was just the schedule? Maybe it was for the Olympics? Either way, the big bold church has never looked better, and since it sits at a crossroads, many tourists are likely to pass by to enjoy it. A little dark inside, from the Napoleon era.Written August 17, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Auggie60 contributionsThis Place is full of history with stunning views down Champs Elysees, the Tour Eiffel, Invalides and Jardin des Tuileries. So it's definitely a must-see.
Although beautiful in and of itself, it's not very well kept, and n you'll likely see rivers of water flowing from underneath the northern fountain.Written August 13, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Not far from Arc de Triomphe. Interesting architectural details and a perhaps slightly oddball but interesting collection of pieces.Written February 18, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Thomas VOakland, CA17,780 contributionsThis huge expo palace has been the site of many extraordinary shows, but now is closed for extensive renovations. You can get a good sense of its beauty and size by walking around, but it's a shame I could not go inside.Written June 16, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- I visited this place🇺🇸🇫🇷🇨🇭🇬🇷🇬🇧Israel35,326 contributionsPROS
* Central section with Arc de Triomphe
* This includes the famous Champs Elysees
CONS
Full of businesses and stores
"I VISITED THIS PLACE"...
... to be at the arc de Triomphe and to ascend to the top. i didn't explore the Champs Elysees- i didn't do that in 2019, and that was enough for me then
WAS IT WORTH THE COST?
Even there, it is still free to be there
WOULD "I VISIT THIS PLACE" AGAIN?
Of course I would return to the Arc de Triomphe again
ADVICE
Of course yo must see and visit the Arc de triomphe but be prepared and know that the Champs Elysees is just expensive stores and restaurants- see my previous "helpful" 👍 reviews of both of thoseWritten September 4, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

* This is extremely well- located in the very center of Paris
* It marks the very historical exact location of the guillotine of the French Revolution of 1789
* Large and impressive archeological artifact from ancient Egypt, festooned with hieroglyphics
CONS
* In the middle of a horrendous and constantly busy hectic traffic circle area
* Difficult to access and be close next to it
* The area seems to always be under some kind of construction
"I VISITED THIS PALCE"
... because it is so central and historic and iconic. On this visit, I didn't try to get onto the island where the obelisk stands.
WAS IT WORTH THE COST?
It is a free public area
WOULD 'I VISIT THIS PLACE" AGAIN?
Sure- after all, it's very central
ADVICE
* Go and admire the obelisk
* Try to get close, but be careful from heavy and hectic trafficWritten July 16, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

While there is still some high end shopping here, much of that has moved on and been replaced by offices. There are a couple of grand hotels and the lovely Champs Elysee Theater. A very upper class part of town.Written February 3, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Kenny M1 contributionWe were delayed at take off and delayed again on landing at CDG with huge queues at passport control. I used the Easy Go Shuttle WhatsApp service to advise we were delayed and they kept in touch. Giving me the direct number for our driver. We were almost 2 hrs past our pick up time but he was there to get us, I was worried they would leave and we expected a grumpy driver as they'd had to wait so long but our driver, Mr Osman, was brilliant! We were greeted with a smile and he took one of the cases. He got my family to our apartment in a very clean and comfortable Mercedes. I would highly recommend Easy Go Shuttle, especially Mr Osman.

- Thomas VOakland, CA17,780 contributionsThis big train station was renovated somewhat recently, and as a result, it is brighter and more modern than the others. Some new shopping and eating. It serves the northwest of France and many suburban towns and works well for the visitor.Written February 5, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Robbert LAmsterdam, The Netherlands2,635 contributionsSurprise. While waiting for something else, my eye fell upon this building, which appeared to be the Hotel de la Marine, completely renovated and only open since 2021. Fascinating interior and a great view over part of Paris from the balcony. There are various tours. We took the tour with the salons, the shortest one. A very nice surprise.Written October 1, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
