Located in the lively Latin Quarter, this Paris apartment combines a fabulous location with lots of character. It’s a lived-in home, which adds to its charm, with shelves filled with books and a kitchen well-stocked with cooking essentials. If four of you are staying, two will sleep on the sofa bed in the lounge, which is partly-open to the bedroom – not a problem for some guests, but worth noting. Once your batteries are recharged and breakfast has been served, step outside to see more of the city: Notre-Dame, the Panthéon, and the Jardin du Luxembourg are all within a ten-minute walk.

Home truths

  • At full occupancy, two guests will sleep on the sofa bed in the living area.

  • The bedroom and living room are only separated by a curtain, not a solid door – so privacy is slightly limited when the sofa bed is in use.

  • This is a lived-in home. You should expect some of the host's personal belongings to be present during your stay.

  • One well-behaved dog is welcome to accompany you during your stay.

  • Seven days before your arrival, a concierge agency will contact you on behalf of your host. They will meet you when you check-in, take care of check-out, and be on hand throughout your stay to help with any queries.

About Île de la Cité

Ile de la Cité is one of the two natural islands known as the official epicentre of Paris, where the medieval city was founded. With only 1,000 inhabitants, it's definitely exclusive! The streets are picture perfect, with paved streets and curving walls aplenty.
