It’s close to the Metro, with easy access to the attractions of Paris, positioned pleasantly between the green spaces of Jardin du Luxembourg and Cimetière du Montparnasse.

Home truths
This home is only available to those studying or travelling for work – you’ll need to provide proof from your university or employer.
There’s a desk in the bedroom for those working remotely during their stay.
We think the kitchenette is better suited to preparing light bites and snacks, rather than full meals.
Your host operates several apartments here, so the exact view, layout and furnishings might differ slightly from the photos. However, the overall quality should remain the same.
Vavin and Notre-Dame-des-Champs Metro stations are a short walk away.

Local guide
About Montparnasse & Catacombs
This part of town is mostly residential but works well as a base for exploring the charms of the nearby 6th and the 7th arrondissements. It was famously home to a community of prominent twentieth-century artists and intellectuals - Simone de Beauvoir, Jean-Paul Sartre, Max Ernst and Pablo Picasso to name a few. Parc Montsouris is one of the city's most colourful public spaces and well worth seeking out. Be sure to check out the Roman Catacombs too if you're of the morbid disposition - stacks of skulls and bones await you!
