We stayed at the Waldorf Astoria Trianon Palace and it couldn't have been more lovely. The hotel was grand, clean, and is situated at the gates of the palace. There are sheep grazing in the backyard, and it's only a short walk into town for shops and restaurants, as well as the train to Paris. We walked into town almost every day, went to mass (I tried my best to follow along in French), stopped for some wine, water, and snacks for our room at the grocery store, and visited a French bakery for some delicious pastries.
The spa and pool were immaculate and the spa uses all Guerlain products. I had a super luxurious facial that was the weekday special and I couldn't recommend it more!
One day we headed into Paris and did a little shopping at Printemps and Galleries Lafayette department stores and had our favorite dinner of steak frites at Le Relais de l'Entrecôte.
Here's some pics of our trip:

| Cold and blustery, but we still had so much fun! |
 |
| We stood in line for dinner for over an hour, but it is always worth it. |

| This view never gets old |

| We stopped for a nightcap just in time to watch the Eiffel Tower sparkle |
We also spent one afternoon touring the Palace of Versailles, and took a day trip to Disneyland Paris (separate blog posts to follow).
We had the very best time and made so many fun memories. I can't wait until our next trip to France!
Thanks for reading, have a fabulous day. :)
