Ever wanted to spend a night in one of the world’s most recognisable monuments?
For the first time ever, a handful of lucky tourists will be able to bed down in the 984-foot tall Eiffel Tower in Paris.
Holiday rental website HomeAway has offered the chance for four contestants to sleep under the Parisian stars for an evening, in a makeshift bedroom and living space on the iconic tower’s first floor.
French interior designer Benoit Leleu has been enlisted to help design the family-friendly living quarters that will include a panoramic view of the City of Lights.
The unusual stay has been given out in a company-run competition as part of HomeAway’s sponsorship of this summer's UEFA Euro cup.
The all-expense paid trip includes a round-trip airfare and three additional nights in a rental apartment in Paris, as well as one night’s stay in the landmark structure.

The winners, who were chosen earlier this month from 150,000 entrants, had to complete a writing prompt on what they plan to do with the accommodation, which were then judged by a panel.
The stunt has attracted attention for its similarity to competitions run by rival Airbnb, which has hosted one-of-a-kind stays including the top of an Olympic ski jump in Norway, Boston’s Fenway Park and submerged in a shark tank.
