Dear all

I will reach Pais on saturday 1dec at 11AM at Paris Gare Le Lyon station.My first time in Paris.Still not decided about where tostay at,please advise a hostel/reasonable hotel for one person and place to stay.I will leave Paris at 2 PM on sunday from Paris gare De Lyon.

Also if someone can suggest what to visit and do in paris during such a short stay.I will be most thankful.

Secondly I want to see Crazy horse saloon show,Is it worth it and boat ride on Siene should be taken during night or day.I am travelling very light just a carry bag with one change of clothes.Finally do these youth hostels at Paris have a age restriction.I am 39 yrs old.Do I need to buy some some special day passes for transport in Paris.I have already confirmed TGV tickets from Lyon,will book hotel today.

If you%26#39;re going to see Crazy Horse in the evening, then don%26#39;t plan the Seine cruise for evening... In fact maybe it would be good to take the cruise as your first activity, several landmarks are viewed from the Seine... First-timers typically want to see the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe and Notre Dame. If you want a museum or two, you could give a couple hours to the Louvre or Musee d%26#39;Orsay.... Just enjoy walking and a coffee at the corner cafe...

You would probably be fine just buying some metro / bus tickets - a pack of 10 costs around 11€.
