A jewel! A city of painters and impressionism, with picturesque streets and typical restaurants that line the so called Vieux-Bassin (don't miss the typical French galette!).

Paris: always worth it

Honfleur

Best Western Premier Faubourg 88

Nice and well kept place, a stone's throw from the Sacred Heart. We enjoyed a dinner outside and were pleased by the great choice and quality of the dishes. Highly recommended.

Absolute perfection. The Truffle Gnocci was the best Truffle dish I've ever had; And I've had... A lot.

Perfect restaurant just off the beaten track for an amazing birthday dinner. Friendly staff and delicious food!

We had a lovely lunch here. Service was extremely welcoming, and continued to be attentive. Fish of the day with legumes was perfect: the fish cooked to perfection, vegetables still nicely "crunchy". The bread and pesto was excellent. Highly recommend

Le Lamarck

The Sacred Heart Cathedral is definitely a must see. Arrive there before 10am to enjoy the visit before it gets too crowded. We also went up to the chapel where you can enjoy a spectacular view over paris. 
Tip: the café at the bottom of the famous staircase to the basilica serves an excellent Italian espresso.

The best religious or spiritual experience, in the most beautiful place of worship, I have ever had. Everyone visiting Paris should visit this church, even if you're not a Christian. You won't regret it. Highest point in Paris with stunning views of the city. A good hike to get up the stairs but there is a tractor train thing I noticed, however I do not know from where you catch it. Stunning experience at sunset on a full moon.

Beautiful historic church, with stunning views all across the city. You can see nearly all major landmarks from different viewpoints. There are many steps to get up to the top. However there's also an outdoor lift type service for the cost of 1 general €1.60 travel ticket. We also saw a tourist train snaking up and around the streets to the top.
Once you're there it's very busy & very touristy. Many people sat on the steps at sunset, which is one of the most beautiful times of day. However, if you can I'd highly recommend going either for sunrise or much earlier in the day.
There are many sellers with different wares. One was selling some incredibly tasty, fresh & warm sugared almonds. There's also some more touristic bars at the top. If you adventure round the back and down, you'll start to get to a less busy area.
I'd highly recommend going no matter what, purely for the views of the city & the architecture of the church!

The view from the hill will deserve your effort to go up stairs. You can see the entire city of Paris, and sunset view is breathtaking especially. If necessary, you can take a cable car to get there. The interior of the building is also exquisite. Worth visiting when you come to Paris though it is located a bit far from the central area. Highly recommended.

Sacré-Cœur

We stopped here on the beach just for a picture of the famous cliffs, called Aiguille d'Etretat. Warning: finding a parking lot is exhausting.
