A perfect apartment for a family or small group visiting Paris and wanting to enjoy the convenience of a central location. This apartment has a clean and cozy feel, offering very high standards in an excellent location at a reasonable nightly rate. The apartment is situated on the European second floor, courtyard side ensuring no traffic noise, in a typical 19th century Parisian apartment building

The apartment, at 43 square meters, is compact for a two-bedroom apartment, and was originally a large studio apartment. It has since been transformed to include to smaller individual bedrooms off the main living area. The bedrooms include large built in closets; one bedroom has a double bed, a second bedroom has two single beds (which can be made into one King sized bed upon request), and the living area also has a fold out sofa bed that sleeps two.  Aside from the foam futon, all beds, including the sofa bed, are of good quality ensuring a good night’s rest.

There is a separate kitchen area with stove, fridge, and a washer/dryer unit, and other basic kitchen necessities. The bathroom is in very good condition with a shower unit and a separate toilet room.

The main living area includes the sofa bed, a dining table/chairs, cable TV (CNN, BBC and movie channels), coffee table, armchairs, telephone and a large window overlooking the quiet building courtyard. For a view of the apartment’s floorplan, click here: FLOORPLAN.

This apartment is in the heart of the Marais District, in the 4^th Arrondissement - an excellent location to take advantage of Paris on foot and to discover some of the quaintest, fashionable and most historic quarters of the French capital.   A two-bedroom apartment in this area of town, at this price, is extremely rare, allowing a small group to enjoy the privacy of two bedrooms at a reasonable nightly rate per person.  The nearest metro is Saint Paul (less than a 5 minute walk).

The Immediate Neighborhood:
Next door to the apartment is the ‘Hotel Sully’, a magnificent mansion and garden built in the early 1600s by the Duc de Sully. Today it houses exhibits and the gardens are open to the public. 

Just around the corner - a 3-minute walk away - is the lovely Place des Voges. The Place des Voges was opened in 1612 and is considered one of the most delightful historic areas of Paris; the poet Victor Hugo lived in an apartment on the square for many years. Not to be missed are the boutiques, outdoor cafés, restaurants, and art galleries along the Place and on the adjacent streets around rue des Franc-Bourgeois.

Conveniently located directly across the street from the apartment building are the shops of the Saint Paul district, where locals do all their grocery shopping. The trendy Bastille area, (traditionally renown for its fortress-prison which was stormed by mobs at the start of the French revolution), now boasts one of the largest and most important Opera houses in Europe as well as many of the latest bars, cafés, modern art galleries and chic restaurants. The Bastille area is a ten minutes walk from the apartment.
Other major historic sites are also nearby: in less than fifteen minutes on foot you can reach Nôtre Dame cathedral and the Seine River, the Picasso Museum, City Hall, and recently renovated and reopened Pompidou/Beaubourg Centre. The Louvre museum, Place de la Concorde and the Champs Elyseés are easy to reach as the are just a few stops away on the same metro line—(for example, the Louvre museum is just 4 metro stops away or can be reached on foot in about 20 minutes).
