5.0

Bright, quirky and wonderfully peaceful, this apartment in Paris’ 10th arrondissement is the ideal base for a couple or solo traveller looking for a central stay away from the crowds. From its parquet floors to its large windows giving way to views over the city’s rooftops from the Juliet balconies, there’s plenty of quintessential Parisian charm here mixed with quirky design elements that give it plenty of character. We love the eclectic dining set that’s all set to host chic soirées over locally-bought wine and cheese. With the bedroom facing the building’s inner courtyard, you’ll have no trouble finding a quiet night’s sleep, so you’ll feel rested and ready for another day of sightseeing – after you’ve had your coffee and croissants in the sunny kitchen, of course. Spend your mornings taking strolls in the beautiful Parc des Buttes-Chaumont (a fifteen-minute walk) and afternoons wandering along the Canal Saint-Martin (a five-minute walk) with its romantic waterside cafés. Bohemian Montmartre is less than thirty minutes away on foot too, while both Gare de l’Est and Gare du Nord are under a ten-minute walk to whisk you away on a day trip to France’s Champagne region or to any other corner of the country.

About Canal Saint Martin - Oberkampf

Canal Saint Martin is to Paris what Williamsburg once was to New York or Shoreditch was to London. This part of town still retains a certain grittiness that has been largely lost from the abovementioned counterparts - gentrification is undoubtedly on its way but the area still feels authentic and edgy so get there before this changes! You'll be rubbing shoulders with Paris's hippest young things, smoking and drinking outside...
