New Year is the time when we make resolutions for the coming twelve months. But what better resolution could you make than to spend this special evening in the heart of Paris while enjoying the hospitality of the Hotel Cristal Champs Elysees?

Enjoy the year-end illuminations and the festive atmosphere

The City of Light dresses its monuments and its most beautiful avenues with illuminated decorations to provide a glittering setting for wonderful walks with your loved one, family or friends. The spectacle is stunning, particularly along the Champs Elysees, where the carefully crafted sightlines guide your astonished gaze all the way to the Arc de Triomphe. Just steps from the Hotel Cristal Champs Elysées, you can enjoy the capital’s most emblematic avenues, including the Avenue Montaigne and Avenue George V, and their prestigious shops.

Head out to eat, enjoy a drink and dance the night away

The selection of places in which to enjoy New Year’s Eve is extensive, although it’s best to book early, especially if you want to enjoy the most popular locations. Why not indulge in a dinner show, a classic Parisian restaurant or a vibrant club to make your evening a memorable one? Maxim's and Le Queen are just two of the fine flowers of Parisian nightlife with global reputations; there’s many more. So go on; treat yourself! You’ll feel like a VIP on this special night.

Experience the excitement of the changing of the year in a happy crowd

The city of Paris has plenty of entertainment prepared for the transition from 2015 to 2016. Don’t miss the illuminations on the Eiffel Tower, which will be even more beautiful than they are during the rest of the year. You can also enjoy, along with thousands of Parisians and tourists, the video show to be presented on the Arc de Triomphe as we head towards midnight. This Sound and Light presentation promises to be exceptional. The countdown to the big moment, in the midst of an excited crowd, will give you a lifetime of happy memories. Be careful, though, to avoid the crush and respect the instructions of the police.
