Cosy and comfortable, this apartment is a great choice of base in Paris. It’s warm and welcoming, equipped with everything you might need for a short city break, including a small kitchenette and a dining area. At full occupancy, two guests will be sleeping on a sofa bed in the living space – if you’re hoping for more space and privacy, we’d stick to a maximum guest count of two. This petite pied-à-terre is centrally located, six minutes from Place de la République and just fifteen minutes from Place des Vosges and the Marais.

Local guide
About Canal Saint Martin - Oberkampf
Canal Saint Martin is to Paris what Williamsburg once was to New York or Shoreditch was to London. This part of town still retains a certain grittiness that has been largely lost from the abovementioned counterparts - gentrification is undoubtedly on its way but the area still feels authentic and edgy so get there before this changes! You'll be rubbing shoulders with Paris's hippest young things, smoking and drinking outside...
