A glass of Champagne, a block of foie gras accompanied by fresh baked bread and a view towards the glittering Eiffel tower as the calendar passes from one year to the next. Guests in New York Habitat’s Paris accommodations will have all of this at their fingertips this New Year’s Eve. The French capital is a wonderful place to reflect on another year and look forward to the possibilities of the future. What could be a better place to spend the holiday in Paris than in the warmth of your own New York Habitat rental apartment?
While many renters will undoubtedly decide to watch the clock pass 12 with friends and lovers in the comfort of their rental apartment, the city will be buzzing with activities on the big night. The center of all French New Year celebrations is along the Champs-Elysees. Much like the festivities at New York’s Times Square , residents flock to the famous avenue to watch the sparkling of the Eiffel Tower and a shower of dramatic fireworks as France ushers in 2009. The ambiance is raucous along the packed avenue, as Champagne corks fly through the air and lovers embrace in prolonged kisses. In addition to the public festivities in central Paris, hundreds of restaurants will offer special menus for couples and families looking for a calmer end to 2008.

This year for New Year I am planning to go on the Champs-Elysees!!! I would imagine that beeing on the most beatiful avenue of the world for New Year Eve is great!!! I am going with a bunch of firnds I am sure we will have a blast!
It was such a wonderful time to bring in the New Year in Paris. The Champs-Elysees has a ton of people and is just like one big party. I honestly don’t think it was as big of a party as in Times Square in Nre York City, but it was overall a really great experience and I am glad that I got to do it once in my lifetime.
I celebrated the New Year in my Paris flat. My apartment was located on a well-lit busy street and I was able to enjoy the crowds and excitement without the hassle, with an extradordinary view from my living room window.
