Advantages: cheap, funky, well located. Disadvantages: location not so suitable for families
...-cons. After all, this was our first time in Paris, and we did not really intend on being in the room that much. Just to sleep to recharge our batteries, ready for a new days exploring.
After researching long and hard, we settled upon the Londres and Anvers hotel, which is in the Monmartre region of Paris. Now, this area is also very close to what is known as the Parisien red light district, so first thing first, this hotel may not be the most suitable for families. However the hotel itself is very well located, as it is literally two minutes walk from the Gard du Nord, which is one of the largest train stations in the city. We were able to get a train from Charles de Gaulle, to the Gard du Nord for very little, and the hotel was in sight of the main entrance to the station. This was good for us, as we did not really have a clue where we were going...

...(where all the locals go). If you happen to have time to sunbathe, go there!
There's a vault/tomb in the cathedral, which can be visited free of charge and that is extremely eery but well worth a visit if you're brave enough and above all else, you must, if you visit any place in France, but particularly Dijon, sit out in front of one of the many cafés sipping whatever takes your fancy. I recommend Café duMoulin by the water fountain and carousel in Rue François Rude. In winter they even have hot chestnuts for sale there too (if you like them!)
Also, if you're about in winter, the christmas markets are a must, with all sorts of gifts and trinkets from all over France and Europe.
Dijon really is a beautiful city, with lots to do and see. I truly recommend everyone to visit and rather than cramming in as much sightseeing as possible, sit...
