This host takes a £1,000 security deposit upon arrival and check-in at the home. They’ll ask the lead guest for ID and a matching debit or credit card to pre-authorise a ‘hold’ on the card. The amount is held by your bank until they confirm that no damage was caused during your stay. They will release the hold within five days of your departure, but it can take your bank longer to process the request from the credit or debit card company. If you do damage anything it’s always best to let this host know before you leave; and once you depart, if they find any damage, we’ll get in touch immediately.

Where to begin with one of Paris's most majestic and central districts? This was the stomping ground of historic kings, and now its grand palaces and squares are home to museums, galleries, government offices, and luxury shopping. With no fewer than three Royal palaces, the attractions are plentiful in this neck of the woods. If checking out the Mona Lisa with throngs of tourists isn't your thing, we recommend exploring some of the area's quieter hidden gems. Colonnes de Burennes has a gorgeous secret square and Alain Ducasse's world-famous French restaurant 'Le Meurice' is just around the corner.
