Roland Garros French Open

Tennis lovers find any excuse to head to Paris for the two weeks in the spring when the top players in the world compete on clay courts for the prestigious Roland Garros title. For two weeks, Paris and the world are riveted to those matches. As with all big events in Paris, finding a hotel room during this popular period of time can be difficult. Finding a hotel room, or more than one room, for the full two weeks in the same hotel, without having to patchwork stays at different hotels together, can be almost impossible. Players, coaches, and tennis buffs vie for the best rooms and tables well ahead of the event as competitively as they approach the sport! The best option for attending Roland Garros and staying in Paris is to reserve a Paris luxury vacation rental for the full two weeks. It will accommodate you or your entire group and will afford you the luxury of staying in one place for the entire period so that you can concentrate on what you came to Paris for: tennis!

Tip: make sure to ask for a Paris luxury vacation rental that has large flat screen TVs, or better yet, a media or home theater room. On days when you may not have a seat, or when it is pouring rain, or when you simply prefer to watch the matches from “home”, flat screen TVs or a good home theater system are a must! These days will be so much more enjoyable spent from your Paris apartment rather than from an impersonal hotel room. First of all, you can spread out. If one of your party does not enjoy tennis, they have the whole apartment to enjoy and other TVs to watch. Try doing that in a hotel room! Second of all, you will have a homey kitchen to pop popcorn, make snacks, and celebrate with great home cooked food or take out gourmet dinners when you get back from a match. So much of the fun of enjoying a sport at home on the TV is the snacking ambiance!

For anyone participating in the matches, from coaches to tennis players to tennis moms, renting a Paris luxury vacation rental is a must. You can’t seriously set up an environment where a player or coach can do what they need to do in a hotel room. They need to exercise, watch what they eat, exercise discipline, get enough sleep, get massages, take business calls, work on their computers, watch training videos, and invite in others for mind coaching sessions and wardrobe fittings. You need room and peace to achieve all of this. And a kitchen, especially, for maintaining a healthy diet in a city where every street corner beckons with culinary delights that could side track a regulated and specific diet. You also need privacy. If you are involved with the game chances are someone will recognize you in a hotel lobby and nix any serenity you may have had before an all important game. The key to winning will be to keep your space clear of disruption and peaceful so that you can stay in the zone.

The Roland Garros French Open lasts for two weeks, and yet you may want to arrive before hand to enjoy Paris for a few days before the games begin. Three weeks in a hotel room? Even if it is a suite in a hotel in Paris, it will most likely not be as comfortable as your own Paris apartment for this amount of time. A room is a room. An apartment, one that is normally lived in and cared for with special touches, is like being home. Sometimes better than home! Many Paris luxury vacation rentals are exquisitely designed and are located in great neighborhoods for you to explore as if you lived there. So rest assured. You can attend Roland Garros French Open, enjoy the tennis, and have a great experience while you stay in Paris!
