Last but not least, what better way to surprise your special someone this Valentine’s Day that with a trip somewhere other than Boston? Is there anywhere more romantic than Paris? And even if your sweetheart is not named Emily, Paris is a fabulous place to visit in the winter. In the off season, the crowds are gone, but the cafes are cozy. And for the ultimate romantic getaway, book a stay at the only chateau-style hotel in the city, Saint James Paris. Located just steps from the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe, the Saint James Paris is the perfect choice whether it is your first trip to the city or the tenth. The stunning entrance truly feels like something out of a fairy tale and the elegant rooms and Michelin starred dining room offer everything you need for a worry-free couple’s getaway. And this time of year, flights to Paris from Boston are typically the lowest they will be all year, with many options around $500 roundtrip.
