I can remember when this place first opened. I was about 8 or 9 and my mom took me here. My naive little mind thought it was awesome as it was a little piece of France in the middle of my own city!
Wow, how things change as you get older.
The outside is nice, in a strangely tacky way with the Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe and several other important Parisian landmarks I can't remember the names of all on top of each other. The inside is a claustrophobic mess. It was built in 1999 and yet if I didn't know any better I would probably think it's much older.
Anyways.
Things I've heard: Ray J likes to hang out here. Of all places on The Strip he chooses Paris.....don't ask me.
Interior and Decor: Very little space inside as already stated. Even on a non-busy traveling day and/or weekend it's still crowded. The fake sky on the ceiling sort of implies that the Eiffel Tower is higher than the stratosphere (the actual stratosphere, not the tower).....yeah. The fake trees and plants inside are quite hilarious.
Food: The Le Village Buffet is one of the best in town. Everything else is very French save a burger place in the back.
Miscellaneous (or in other words I don't know what category to throw everything else in): The restrooms are awkward. If I have to drain the weasel when I'm in here (and I strangely seem to be in this place a lot) I actually will walk all the way to the bridge in the back and use it in Bally's. No barriers between the urinals, and the appearance of the stalls make me feel uncomfortable. They're just weird. Also, the shopping area is also very French, and not in the Chanel sense. Le Enfants probably is a store for babies and/or children, whatever the names of the other stores mean....your guess is as good as mine, unless you know French.
Amsterdam always seemed more appealing than Paris. Maybe I would like it better if it were an Amsterdam themed place? Oh well, at least you can get a crepe pretty much anywhere inside here.
