Located in the 2nd arrondissement, this apartment is one of those Parisian places that leaves a strong impression well before you've unpacked. The main living area is its most striking room – a cabinet of curiosities with high ceilings, ornate cornicing, and a taxidermy peacock perched on its console. Soundproofed windows mean the lively street stays outside. And when you're ready to see the sights, Galerie Vivienne, Palais Royal, and Opéra Garnier are all within a fifteen-minute walk.

Home truths
There's no lift in the building, so you'll be carrying luggage up and down the stairs to the second floor on arrival and departure.
You won't find an oven here – though there is a hob. We think the kitchen is better suited to prepping lighter bites than large meals.
If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a travel cot and high chair. You'll need to request them in advance.
As is common in France, the toilet is separate from the bathrooms.
While the windows are soundproofed, given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.
