Ideally located in Paris' 5th arrondissement, this vibrant apartment provides a wonderfully comfortable base from which to explore the city. A colourful home full of character and curios, it’s a place to kick back, relax, and enjoy a true bohemian Parisian experience. There’s a touch of academic elegance in the main living space with its open shelves packed with books, records and ornaments, all of which invite you to enjoy them while lounging on the plump sofas. With a couple of desks on hand – here and in the bedroom – you’re never far from a spot to catch up on work or pen your Parisian-inspired novella. The neighbourhood views from the scenic Juliet balconies are sure to proffer plenty of inspiration should you need it. Outside of your stylish home, you’ve got plenty to see and do within easy walking distance, including the Panthéon (a three-minute walk), Notre Dame (a nine-minute walk), the Luxembourg Gardens (a ten-minute walk) and the Louvre (twenty minutes away on foot).
