Great place to visit, beautiful in the night (watch your personal effects though, my phone got stolen!) we got through security swiftly, we were seen to quickly due to having disabled children, so if you do have children with needs be aware you can skip the lines to get them through quickly. We got the lift up to the second floor as the top was closed due to technical issues. The view from the second floor is the best.. obviously top would be better. From the first floor you can t really see a lot as Paris is quite flat and grey so unless something really stands out it s hard to see. Toilets are on the second floor as well as food and gift shops, prices are quite fair and food is fine. We walked down to the first floor and to be honest there isn t much there, the restaurant seems to be getting refurbished - we have eaten at the restaurant before (almost 10 years ago now) I remember it well and it was a great experience back then, shame it wasn t open this trip! All in all we enjoyed our visit and our children really enjoyed taking in Paris from the Eiffel Tower... downside - getting my phone stolen and not getting it back! It s up by the Moulin Rouge, hasn t been switched on since the night it was stolen, so useless to the person who pick pocketed me! Please take care of your belongings, they are professionals and will take anything and everything!
