Light pours into this Saint-Germain-des-Prés studio from street-level windows that open straight onto a classic Parisian scene – and with boulevard Saint-Germain and rue de Rennes just steps away, the neighbourhood does the rest. Bakeries, restaurants, and local shops are right on the doorstep, while Jardin du Luxembourg is a thirteen-minute walk and the Musée d'Orsay a fifteen-minute stroll. For evenings out, Odéon Théâtre de l'Europe is six minutes on foot, and Odéon metro is a four-minute walk for anywhere further afield. A compact but characterful base in one of Paris's most coveted addresses.

Home truths
The apartment is on the first floor of a typical Parisian building with no lift, so you'll need to carry luggage up the stairs on arrival and departure.
This is a studio apartment, so you'll be living and sleeping in one space.
This home is only available to those studying or travelling for work – you’ll need to provide proof from your university or employer.
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.
