Advantages: Good atmosphere, la Grande Salle, Disadvantages: Expensive, small screens
Going to the cinema during your visit to Paris might not top of your list of things to do, but LeGrand Rex is certainly not your everyday cinema.
Histoire
LeGrand Rex was opened in 1932 and is the oldest cinema in Paris. It has a long and interesting history, from its opening night on the 8th of December 1932, attended by a ritzy, glitzy list of 3,300 VIPs, to its occupation by the German soliders, who used it as a place to watch propaganda films.
The building is decorated in a typical art deco style, whilst the inside, particularly the 'Grande Salle' - the biggest room, which also boasts the biggest screen in Europe - is a mixture of art deco and baroque style.
LeGrand Rex is also home to a night club - Rex Club - which is attached to the building and is right next door. However, in the many times I've visited, this has ...

Advantages: Near the town center Disadvantages: No tea or coffee in the room only the mini bar
Not bad as hotels go but most diffinately not the best.
The hotel is situated in a good position in Le Havre quite approx 10 mins walk from the railway station and easy to find. Close to the hotel is the town centre with plenty of shops.

The rooms are small but clean with double bed, bathroom and small seating area and TV (very limited chanel choice ), Note that there are no tea and coffee making facilities in the rooms only the mini bar. The rooms could do with updating and are in slight need of re-decoration.
The hotel bar is pleasant and the service was good, but the restaurant is too small and we ...
Advantages: Unusual and brilliant spectacle Disadvantages: Its all in French!
We have travelled to the Vendee region of France several times and we had heard about The Grand Parc at Puy du Fou but it is billed as a Medieval Theme Park and it really didn't appeal to me! However having "done" many of the attractions in the area and faced with another day of dodgy weather (we were very unlucky in 2008) we decided to give it a go.
The tickets were about 25 euroes for adults and 15 for children. However when I enquired about directions at our campsite office they told me that we could buy tickets from them with a 5 euro discount each. This seems to be common practice in the area so either book online or through your accomodation if possible to bag a bargain! They also informed me that it was a simple journey and would be well signposted off the A87. They mentioned that the road to The Grand Parc gets busy ...
