Il Gallo

Il Gallo, Plum Guide home in Paris

Click to book Il Gallo now: from £200 per night Neighbouring Jardins du Trocadéro, this home is close to many of the main attractions – Eiffel Tower and Palais de Tokyo to point the most obvious – making it an ideal pied-à-terre for a couple looking to visit the sights. Its overall modernist looks translate to a sleek high-tech kitchen and comfy corner sofa of brutalist lines. Although the bedroom is probably the least impressive room due its compact size and lack of light, it provides a quiet and dark environment that promotes an energising sleep – well needed after a busy day exploring. Sleeps up to 2 | 1 Bedroom | 1 Bathroom

Bonjour Chérie, Plum Guide home in Paris

Click to book Bonjour Chérie now: from £400 per night Modern design meets classic elegance in this ideally located apartment. Just off of the Champs-Élysées, you couldn’t be better placed to explore Paris’ most famous avenue. We love the bold colours inside this home with a plump emerald green sofa in the living room contrasting beautifully with the black and white palette that flows from one room to the next. The master bedroom takes glamour to another level with its marble feature wall, pendant lights, luxurious satin sheets and large windows giving way to leafy views, while the bathroom’s sleek black marble walls and rainfall shower make waking up each morning a treat. When you’re not relaxing in your plush pad, head downstairs to the communal lounge where a pool table and a fire pit will instantly make you feel welcome. When you’re ready to explore, the Arc de Triomphe is a five-minute walk away, while the Eiffel Tower is reachable in thirty minutes on foot. The metro is also just a three-minute stroll from your door, to whisk you away to all four corners of the dazzling City of Light. Sleeps up to 6 | 2 Bedrooms | 1 Bathroom

Perfect for entertaining, this period Paris apartment has oodles of space, a grand dining room and a light-filled living area opening out to a long, narrow balcony. Bedrooms are stylish and unique, and the kitchen is bang up to date with all the modern appliances. As well as being set by the Champs Elysees, an iconic tourist spot, this upmarket part of town offers luxury shops and picturesque green space for those hoping to enjoy the city at a more leisurely pace.

The Abbey House, Plum Guide home in Paris

Click to book The Abbey House now: from £1950 per night Built on the only remaining wall of the 13th century Saint Germain-des-Prés Abbey, this apartment across three storeys still shows the bones of the old building. Although each room has been renovated to 21st-century standards, the original medieval abbey walls have been left exposed with stone arches and cornices even in the bathrooms. The double-height living room feels big and airy, with stonework from the abbey sitting alongside vibrant modern art. Up on the mezzanine, a study area and glass-fronted master bedroom overlook the living room. Down at the bottom level, another full living area – second sitting room, kitchen and dining – is decked out in 60s splendour, like discovering a time capsule in your basement. You’re in the 6th Arrondissement here, where local Parisian restaurants and cafés line tree-lined boulevards. The Jardin de Luxembourg is a ten-minute walk in one direction, and the Louvre is ten minutes in the other. Sleeps up to 6 | 3 Bedrooms | 4 Bathrooms

Eiffel Courtyard

Eiffel Courtyard, Plum Guide home in Paris

Click to book Eiffel Courtyard now: from £180 per night We adore this home's location – it's just a five-minute walk to the Eiffel Tower and the impressive Champs de Mars. Art lovers will enjoy it here too, as it's a ten-minute stroll across the River Seine to the Musée d'Art Moderne de Paris. Notre-Dame Cathedral is twenty minutes on foot, or go for a romantic saunter along the river bank – it is the City of Love, after all. The apartment faces onto a beautiful green courtyard and is spacious and light, with high ceilings and contemporary decor. There's an industrial-chic kitchen, an ode to Eames at the dining table, bold modern artwork throughout and a great sound system, so you can sit back and relax after a busy day of sightseeing. Sleeps up to 3 | 1 Bedroom | 1 Bathroom
