If you're heading to Saint-Germain-des-Prés, this apartment is ideally placed. It’s on the ground floor of a quiet courtyard, so you get a peaceful spot despite being in the heart of the city. Inside, everything from wooden beams to Versailles parquet floors and high ceilings really give it that classic Parisian feel. The living and dining area is open-plan, with a kitchen that's cleverly designed to separate the spaces. At full capacity, two people will sleep on the sofa bed. But if you don't mind sharing, it's a great base in one of the city’s most central and vibrant areas.
