Some places just have that special something which makes them irresistible – this gem in the heart of Paris is one of such homes. If it had nothing else going for it but its location, it would be enough to lure you in – situated on the famous Rue Saint-Honoré, just five minutes away from the Louvre, and within walking distance from the majority of the city’s most iconic sights, the positioning of this apartment is hard to beat. But then you step inside and realise that the location is just one part of the appeal. Let yourself be embraced by the charm and quintessentially Parisian vibe of this space – nestled under a rooftop of a traditional building, with wooden beams and gorgeous skylights, the living room is bathed in light. We love the bookshelves, lovingly filled with unique titles by the hosts, who just happen to both be writers. In case you’re feeling extra-romantic – and let’s face it, who wouldn’t here – there’s even a piano waiting for you to make some lovely music together. The well-equipped kitchen will inspire you to rustle up delicious suppers, which can be enjoyed at the dining table. Later, why not get cosy on the sofa in front of the fireplace for an evening of wine and conversation. The bedroom may be on the small side, but it is guaranteed to bring a good night’s sleep, courtesy of the plush bed. Awake well-rested and enjoy your morning coffee while you plan another day of Parisian adventures. Head out and explore this magical city, knowing that your cosy nest awaits your return.

The Opéra Garnier is not to be missed so even if you don't have time to watch a ballet,...
