If you're visiting Paris, the capital of France--and, arguably, all Europe--it can be a good idea to book hotels in Neuilly-sur-Seine. This town, although technically separate from Paris, in fact borders the famous capital, such that it is impossible to detect any visible separation. Neuilly-sur-Seine has a high per-capita population and is known to be an affluent place, home to many among the Parisian upper classes. This suburb was created in the 17th century, when the Chateau de Neuilly was built here for Count d'Argenson, King Louis XV's Secretary of State for War. Away from the crowds and high prices of Paris, Neuilly-sur-Seine hotels still offer travelers ready access to Paris proper.

Local points of interest include the Chateau de Neuilly, surrounded by acres of beautiful public park, as well as the City Hall, whose antechamber contains a dramatic neo-Classical mural painting. Also make sure to walk or drive along the broad Avenue Charles de Gaulle, which leads all the way to the famous Arc de Triomphe in Paris.
