Hmn. I hope is a Zurich/Basil peculiarity, I didn't know it might be difficult obtaining ticks. Hmn, hmn, hmn.

Well, if I can get ticks, it looks like I could get in at 11.25 and leave at 19.10. Is this enough time? When will the meeting occur? Will it be close to the railway station? Otherwise I would have to stay in a hotel and leave the next day. But then I would have to find a hotel. Bah. This is exactly why I hate travelling. It's so complicated!

It's about half an hour from the train station, so the times you indicate should be perfect. If you want to stay longer, there's small hotel just around the corner at 75 eur/night. I'll give you the details if you need them.

LEP found this website:  Last Minute Hotel Deals - Rates To Go

My friend recommended the Houses - Paris: 90 euros/night (two night minimum).  You need to email them (resa@thehouses-paris.com) to reserve.  My friend's comments:

It's a simple, small, cute apartment with a kitchenette, about 30 meters squ., great, generous-sized shower (none of that tiny plastic shell stuff.)

It is located in a ruelle/through-alley which is one of the secret gems of paris. It is really, really special. My Parisian friends were delighted and impressed, as the neighborhood has been until recently, traditionally immigrant and working class. There were so many Parisian 'tourists' making urban pilgrimages here to 'discover the countryside' in paris, even people leaving contact names on the building doors asking people to contact them if they wanted to sell.

The problem is, it's about an 8 minute walk in any direction to one of 2 or 3 metro stops. No problem if you don't mind walking.

Also, Homelidays (though a quick search indicates that most [if not all] offerings are by the week, rather than the night.)

Anyone know of any other such possibilities?

Truth unfolds in time through a communal process.
