The palaces cluster on the Right Bank, 30 minutes from Le Bourget: the Ritz on Place Vend\u00f4me, Le Bristol and the Four Seasons George V off the Champs-\u00c9lys\u00e9es, the Crillon on the Concorde, Cheval Blanc at La Samaritaine over the river. On the Left Bank, the Lutetia and the small hotels of Saint-Germain suit a quieter week. For Versailles, the Airelles at the ch\u00e2teau is the only hotel inside the grounds, and Orly is the closer airport.<\/p>\n
Timed tickets save the day: the Louvre, the Mus\u00e9e d’Orsay, the Orangerie for the Water Lilies and the Eiffel Tower all sell out in advance in the season. Beyond the obvious, the Bourse de Commerce holds the Pinault collection, the Fondation Louis Vuitton sits at the edge of the Bois de Boulogne, and the Marais has the Picasso museum and the best Sunday afternoon in the city. Day trips: Giverny and Chantilly in under an hour, the Champagne houses at Reims in 90 minutes by road, the Loire ch\u00e2teaux by helicopter.<\/p>\n
A chauffeured car meets the flight at the FBO door. In the city, distances are short and the roads slow: walk the centre, use the car for evenings and for Le Bourget, where 30 minutes becomes 45 between 7 and 10 in the morning and 5 and 8 in the evening. The M\u00e9tro is the fastest way across town at rush hour, if the party is small.<\/p>\n
Many restaurants close on Sunday and Monday, and the best tables are booked a month ahead; the concierge of a palace is the surest route. Shops shut on Sunday outside the tourist zones. August empties the city of Parisians and of some of its kitchens. France is on Central European Time, an hour ahead of London. Le Bourget’s customs handles non-EU arrivals in the terminal: a flight from London is an international arrival with passport control, which takes minutes in the FBO.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
