Hotel Sezz

Activities

• The Eiffel Tower is a ten-minute stroll across the bridge; you can’t miss it! On a good day (no queues for the lifts) you can get from your room to the top in 25 minutes
  
  
• Keep going and you can follow the Champs de Mars down to the Ecole Militaire, then walk up through Invalides to the Musée d’Orsay
  
  
• Boat trips up and down the Seine set off nearby
  
  
• Try the Rue de Passy for some shopping; accompanied shopping tours and gallery visits can be arranged
  
  
• Beyond this is the Bois de Boulogne, with its rose gardens, kids' park and rowboats on the lake (avoid weekends - and night time!)
  
  
• A lesser-known gem of the 16th arrondissement is the Musée de l’Homme at the Trocadéro (a 7-minute walk); it mixes pre-history with anthropology and ethnology to fascinating effect
  
  
• Another gem nearby is Palais de Tokyo, a modern art museum not far from Trocadéro
  
  
• Finally, if you fancy a morning stroll, the Allée de Cygnes is a raised bank in the middle of the Seine, running between the nearby bridges of Bir-Hakeim and Grenelle. The southern point is marked by the Statue of Liberty, a replica of New York’s, though somewhat smaller (and a gift to the people of Paris from Parisian Americans in the late 19th-century). The walk there and back takes about half an hour
