Just a five-minute walk from Paris’ famous Louvre Museum, this comfortable apartment is the perfect base from which to explore some of the city’s most historic sights. Inside, bright pops of colour, wood floors and an open-plan main room create an instantly warm welcome, with a beautiful wood slab dining table inviting hearty breakfasts ahead of a day of sightseeing and intimate evening meals over a bottle of French wine. We love the bright bedrooms with their vibrant feature walls and their tall windows giving way to inner courtyard views. You’ll love waking up and heading straight for the pink and green tiled bathrooms too, where rainfall showers wait to give you a relaxing start to the day ahead. When you’re ready to explore, make a beeline for the neighbouring Louvre, or stroll just ten minutes to explore the historic Marais district with its bistros, vintage shops and cultural Centre Pompidou. Notre-Dame is also within twenty minutes walking distance of your home, while countless boutiques and restaurants line the streets right outside your door.

About Louvre - Palais Royal
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.
