Sitting in the heart of St Germain des Prés, this apartment puts you in one of Paris's most characterful quarters, with Saint-Placide metro station a one-minute walk from the front door. The Jardin du Luxembourg is an eleven-minute stroll, and the Musée d'Orsay is reachable on foot in around twenty-one minutes – meaning most of the Left Bank is yours to explore at a leisurely pace. Back inside, the living space is easy and sociable, and the bedrooms bring a welcome splash of colour to round off a day in the city.
