Overlooking the Louvre's eastern colonnade and the intricately carved church of Saint-Germain-l'Auxerrois, the history and magic of Paris are drawn into the fabric of this home. Situated in a charming building dating back to 1865, the more modern interiors are a lesson in eclectic maximalism, with a plush double-sided red couch for kicking your feet up, warm gold curtains framing views of the church and museum and a playfully feline rug. The bedrooms carry the same decorative spirit with joyous floral wallpaper and melon-coloured throws and artwork. In the mornings, enjoy a sharp espresso and croissant on the balcony with views over the iconic boulevard and its stately buildings. You’ll need a strong coffee for your busy day in the heart of Paris. You’re only a two-minute walk from The Louvre, where you could spend a few days wandering its massive halls. Once you’ve gotten your share of art and want some fresh air, you’re a stone’s throw from the Seine River and the beautiful Pont Neuf, as well as a fifteen-minute walk from the manicured hedges and stone fountains of Le Jardin des Tuileries – it's the perfect spot for an afternoon picnic of wine and baguette.

Local guide
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.
