Do you have a question about this home or the local area?

This pocket-size apartment is located in the southern end of the Latin Quarter, between the famous Rue Mouffetard and the Jardin des Plantes – a very sought-after spot. Its elegant style and quintessentially Parisian touches create a space with a rather romantic appeal. We recommend it for a couple for maximum comfort, while a group of three (or even four at a stretch) could use it as more of a base from which to explore Paris. You'll love waking up and padding through to the kitchen for some hot coffee made just how you like it, as you plan your adventures for the day. As an added bonus, the host has organised a staff member to personally greet you upon arrival and be available to answer any questions or provide personalised recommendations.
