It would be hard to beat this location - smack dab in the ever-so-trendy Le Marais district, but also snuggled away at the back of a private courtyard, which keeps this apartment very quiet and cosy. It's an ideal spot for a short but sweet stay for those looking to tick the famous landmarks off their bucket list. Take the ten-minute walk to the historic Notre Dame Cathedral, before seeing the Mona Lisa with your very own eyes in the iconic Louvre Museum – under half an hour from your door. Discover the hip streets, colourful buildings and independent shops with a slow stroll around the local area. It's fair to say you'll be spoilt for choice when planning out your tourist itinerary to discovering Paris here. Back home, we love the parquet flooring and electric marble fireplace that screams out Parisian flair and styling. Sip your morning espresso at the breakfast bar with chic yellow stools, after a restful night's sleep in the mezzanine bedroom. It's a fresh and functional place to call home, with so much to see and do right outside.
