Nestled in the 2nd arrondissement, picture yourself wandering the charming streets of Paris amidst the local independent bakeries, florists and market sellers as the days pass you by in the city of lights. From this quintessentially Parisian apartment, you'll have it all. And by that we mean – optimal space to stretch out in comfort after a long day of sightseeing, a large dining area for hosting delicious home-cooked dinners paired with French wine (of course). Not to mention, the super cosy bedrooms and ultra-sleek bathroom which ensure restful nights and plenty of respite from the buzz of staying in such a central spot in the city. From here you'll have Paris at your fingertips with many of the city's most iconic monuments within convenient reach. Explore the pristine Palais Royal gardens, just a five-minute walk away or head over to the Louvre and adjacent Jardin des Tuileries – only eight minutes away on foot.

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.
