Thank you for your suggestion. So we have decided to go to Paris and Switzerland.
It would be really great if you can suggest an itinerary for us. we are four adults with one kid. We would land in Paris on 24 august 15 and departure from zurich on 5 september 15. we intend to spend 4 nights in paris. then from paris head straight to geneva. we are not too keen to do skiing or hiking.
We want to cover following things:
1. paris to geneva train. night in vevey(explore geneva,montreuxx,vevey, broc choclate factory, gstaad, gruereys) - 2 nights. or do you suggest 3 nights?,
2. do you suggest zermatt given the weather during first week of september. and how many nights should we stay there. and any cheap accommodation. 1 night or 2 nights in zermatt., whatever you suggest.
3. zermatt to interlaken. Jungfrau, and other places. 2 nights interlaken. or do you suggest any other comparatively cheap accommodation in nearby villages like gridelwald?
4. interlaken to lucerne. 2 nights in lucerne. cover mt. titlis,Chapel Bridge,Swiss Transport Museum, the IMAX Theatre or the Lion Monument .
5. head to zurich apt.

If you want to go to Zermatt, you should give yourself at least 2 nights to give you a chance to have clear weather to see the mountains. I afraid the "cheap" will be in short supply there, I'm not even sure the word exists in any of the four official Swiss languages.
I'd look at www.booking .com. There are several thousand hotel rooms in town, so you should find something. Around the train station is convenient. You'll get a card to ride the buses in town at any hotel you stay at. Think about getting a tourist Half Fare Card for 120 chf for each in your party and all your train and mountain lift tickets will be half price while you are in Switzerland.
