Paris and London
The verdict for November

Quietest and best value
+The emptiest month of the year, at the lowest rates.
–Grey, wet and dark by late afternoon.
Everything is bookable, and nothing feels crowded.

Best value before Christmas
+Lower rates and fewer visitors before the Christmas rush.
–Darker, colder and wetter conditions.
Festive London starts appearing at pre-Christmas prices.
Scores and crowd levels are my own judgement; temperatures are monthly averages. Higher scores are better: quieter, cheaper and more pleasant.
