Close to buzzing Le Marais, this apartment is well-placed to explore Paris. The famous Bastille is within easy reach, while the metro is nearby when you're keen to see more of the city. Design-wise, the interiors take inspiration from India, with nods ranging from elephant curios to scenic wallpaper. The open-plan living area is the essence of chic, and though two guests will sleep on a sofa bed, we don't think you'll be short on space.
