If Paris attracts tourists from around the world, it is also and perhaps mostly a city of international conventions, fairs and shows.
This will make it easier for you to chose the dates of your stay, keeping in mind that it is always best to try and avoid these professional gatherings as practically all the Parisian hotels are fully booked around these times and have higher rates !
Following you will find more information and our advice, for month by month :
