This cheery apartment in the buzzing Saint-Germain district makes a great base whether you're in Paris on holiday or travelling for work. The living area is spacious and warm, with a large sofa for lounging on after a day's sightseeing. We love the exposed wooden beams and the large French windows for watching life go by on the streets below. There's a well equipped kitchen for creating French feasts or for warming up pastries bought at the nearby bakery. Given your location, however, you may well choose to eat out - Polidor, one of the oldest restaurants in Paris is right on your doorstep.

About Saint Germain des Prés - Odéon
Saint-Germain-des-Prés has it all: location, buzz, romance, a bohemian past, luxury shopping, art galleries, as well as famous monuments, historic churches and of course its iconic cafes, where intellectuals like Sartre and Hemingway used to hang out back in the day.
