Don’t be put off by this apartment’s slightly off-the-tourist-trail setting in the 10th Arrondissement. With buzzy cafés and bistros on your doorstep and Canal Saint-Martin just moments away for waterfront strolls, you’ll quickly fall for this authentic corner of Paris. Need to be somewhere fast? The Metro is only a few minutes’ walk away. Back home, while compact and with two guests sharing a sofa bed, the apartment makes clever use of space. Our favourite spot? That window seat to watch Parisian life unfold on the boulevard below with a morning coffee – that’s a memory made right here.

Home truths
At full occupancy, two guests will sleep on the sofa bed in the living room.
While the large bed in the main bedroom makes for a great night's sleep, it does feel a little big for the room, and space is limited. However, there’s still everything for a great night’s sleep, including plenty of storage.
The apartment is located on the third floor without a lift, so be prepared to climb some stairs.
There’s no free parking at this home – however, parking in central Paris can be tricky. We recommend sticking to easily accessible public transport where possible.
Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.
If you're travelling for work, you won't find a dedicated desk here. However, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace.
