Q. I am planning to arrive in Paris by the Train from London via the English Channel. I wanted to know whether it is advisable to stay at the Sheraton Airport Hotel in Paris if I want to go sight-seeing to Eiffel Tower and Louvre Museum and the Bridge in Paris. Also, how long would it take to cover the whole of Paris (sight-seeing)? Is there any particular tour of Paris that I should be aware of? Please advise.
A. I agree: BAD BAD BAD idea. Coming by train you will be lucky to arrive directly in downtown Paris so why stay at a hotel far out in the suburbs if you are coming to visit Paris?
You could walk between the Eiffel Tower and the Louvre (3 km = under 2 miles) or take the métro or bus. Check the www.ratp.fr website to download maps and other info. How long it takes to cover the whole of Paris depends on your idea of sightseeing. 2 days is a bare minimum to get a glimpse of the main attractions. But you could stay weeks and not have time to enjoy everything either.
No need to take tours unless maybe those bicycle tours, they are kinda fun and you learn a lot. A less sporty way of seeing the main attraction is the boat tours on the Seine. If you are traveling alone and haven't prepared your trip much hiring a tour guide for yourself can be a good idea for half a day or so, otherwise forget it. Your hotels will have brochures or you can get a list or tour guides from the tourist office (www.parisinfo.com). Don't go on any of the big tours, they are ridiculous and a complete waste of time.

A. To the best of my knowledge it is not illegal but because you are minors some hotels may worry.
As minors you're not legally able to make a contract and, in theory, renting a hotel room is a form of contract.
I'd check before hand with whatever hotel you have reservations for and find out if its a problem.
