This eclectic yet beautiful period apartment is nestled in the historic Les Halles neighbourhood. The place is surprisingly quiet given its central location, with endless lively cafes, vibrant bars, classic bistros and international shops no more than a five-minute walk away. Artsy types will be pleased with the close proximity to the Pompidou Centre and Louvre, while history buffs should enjoy a visit to the Notre-Dame, just twenty-minutes south. Inside the abode, your host's musical talent, love for film and innate creativity is reflected in every nook and cranny. We were taken by the antique curiosities and adored the grand piano. The kitchen is well-equipped and functional, perfect for intimate dinners at home. And when it’s time to call it a night, cosy bedrooms are a pleasure to retreat to.
