You'll find this ground-floor apartment in Montparnasse. A short walk away is the area's famous skyscraper, where far-reaching views of the Eiffel Tower await. Prefer to stay on the ground? Wander fifteen minutes to Luxembourg Garden or hop on the nearby metro and cruise across the city. Back home, you'll enjoy a small but practical terrace that's perfect for alfresco coffees and cocktails. The living space has a cosy banquette dining area, as well as a sofa bed for guests five and six. Both bedrooms are on the smaller side, though – no bother, as we think you'll spend most of your time here exploring Paris.

Home truths

    At full capacity, two guests will sleep on a sofa bed in the living area.

    Both bedrooms are on the small side. There isn't much room to store your things or walk around the beds.

    This is a ground-floor apartment. It's above a railway line, so expect to hear some noise and occasionally feel the passing trains.

    As is common in France, the toilets are separate from the bathrooms.

    Your host can provide a cot upon request if you're travelling with little ones.

    Upon arrival, you'll need to pick up the keys from a nearby address.

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!
