During a recent, thankfully snow-free, trip to Paris, we checked into the Hilton Arc de Triomphe in the heart of the tony 8th arrondisement for a quick stay, and heres a look at our top-floor junior suite with a photo gallery and walk-through video. ...

France and the U.S. might be in the midst of a cold trade war at the moment (can you believe how hard its become to get a smelly hunk of cheese or a nice bottle of wine for a decent price?), but the Hilton Arc de Triomphe is importing a...

Scotland's Balmoral Hotel Hotels getting gussied up for holiday time is hardly something new, nor is the deluge of "Super-Amazing-Can't-Miss-It" packages that accompany tinsel being hung. Trust us; we'll be hearing (and writing) about them ad infinitum. Finding metallic ornaments and maybe even a Christmas goose dinner is easy...

OK, if it werent already obvious that we should be taking a winter jaunt to Paris, here we have yet another Paris hotel package deal that sounds, well, délicieuse. And that's not because of its sexy hotel name. This time the package revolves around something we find it very...

Can anyone still afford to jaunt to Paris to check out new art exhibits? Er, could anyone ever afford to do that? (Actually, scratch that question. Were pretty sure we wont like the answer.) If you answered yes to the first question, the Hilton Hotels in Paris have an...

Ever since Pariss bike-sharing program, Velib, took the world by storm two summers ago, the City of Light might as well be re-dubbed the City of Bikes. Beyond our fears of navigating streets clogged with angry Parisian drivers, we have to admit the whole see-Paris-by-bike thing is pretty cool...

It's not even April and yet we already have a pretty great guess at what 2009's buzzword will be: bailout. Everyone wants in on the free stuff action, and so it's no surprise that a whole packet of hotels have risen up to offer some "stress bailout incentives," taking...

We don't head to Paris that often, but when we do, we'd prefer not to waste our precious shopping time at boutiques marked up for tourists or packed with French-looking goods but all bearing the "Made in China" sticker. This is where the Hilton Arc de Triomphe comes in...

Go to Paris, drink wine: there's definitely a pure logic there. The Hilton Arc de Triomphe Paris knows this and has put together a Wine Lovers' Package which is already having us reaching for a bottle. (Or is it just a Friday feeling of needing a few drinks?).In any...

This is quite refreshing. Instead of hotels raising rack rates unnecessarily anytime an event comes into town, Hilton Hotels in the Paris area are offering a package deal that starts at $280 to celebrate the 2007 Rugby World Cup. Ok, well maybe that makes sense as only the U.K. and...

If you're headed to Paris during Joyeux Noel, you probably have your trip all planned out. But just in case, the Hilton Arc de Triomphe is offering the Festive Package which includes accommodations, your very own decorated mini-Christmas tree, a glass of champagne in the hotel's Purple Bar, chocolates, and...

Specialized amenities are a new wave in hotel trends. We've seen how hotels help fulfill manly dreams with "mancations" and even help some lonely women get dates. Stepping into this field is the Hilton Arc-de-Triomphe which offers special amenities for its women executive guests and thankfully none are as demeaning...
