Eiffel Tower is a “must-visit” attraction for almost all visitors to Paris. Now you can spend a night there, courtesy of HomeAway.
The vacation rental service is giving away the chance to four contestants to sleep over at the Eiffel Tower in a competition as part of its sponsorship of this summer’s UEFA Euro 2016.
A night at the Eiffel Tower awaits four lucky contestants.
Travellers can enter the contest by answering the question: What would you do if the HomeAway Eiffel Tower Apartment was all yours for a night?
According to HomeAway, the lucky winners will “make history as the first to ever sleep over in the world’s most iconic landmark”.
Winners can invite five guests each to spend the night on the first level of Eiffel Tower – HomeAway’s Eiffel Tower Apartment – with panoramic views of the Arc de Triomphe, the Grand Palais, Sacre Coeur on Montmartre, and the Seine River.
The overnight stay will be on June 23, June 28, July 4, and July 8. It is part of a vacation package that also includes three nights in HomeAway vacation rental in Paris and round-trip transportation costs.
Closing date for the contest is May 31 in the US, and June 5 in both Europe and Asia.
The winners will be announced on June 10, the day the football tournament kicks off in Paris.
French interior designer Benoit Leleu will partner with HomeAway to create a temporary, family-friendly first-of-its-kind living quarters installed in the Eiffel Tower, complete with bedrooms and an inviting lounging area.
HomeAway invites the global community to help shape the space’s final design through a #EiffelTowerAllYours crowdsourcing campaign on its social media channels, including Facebook and Instagram.
