Le Meurice | Paris on sale in March and April

Le Meurice is my favorite hotel in Paris. It enjoys the perfect location for sightseers, right on the rue de Rivoli, overlooking the Tuilleries. You can cross the street to stroll in the park, and you're an easy walk from the Louvre, the musée d'Orsay, the place de la Concorde, and world-class shopping. I've always said that Le Meurice offers the best location in the heart of Paris.

And Paris is on sale, a casualty of the current financial recession. A Superior Room (375 square feet) at Le Meurice is just 345€ (about $438) during March and April, and that rate comes with these added-value amenities just by booking through a Virtuoso luxury travel consultant:

• daily Full Breakfast in the hotel's three-star Michelin restaurant
• upgrade on check-in to a Deluxe Room (430 square feet) if available
• a complimentary extra bed for a child under 14
• early check-in and late check-out if available
• exclusive welcome amenities

There are no catches to this sale, no pre-payment or deposit required, no rigid cancellation deadlines. You can cancel anytime up until 3 p.m. the day before your arrival, and you pay the hotel when you check out. These are unheard-of values for one of the great palace hotels in Paris, and these fabulous rates are currently available for March and April. Does this sound too good to be true? Just check it out and let me prove it to you.
