If you’re looking for a truly, local Parisian experience, and an alternative option to a hotel, this is the perfect place. When we first arrived here, there was instantly a feeling of “home” and comfort. As a one-bedroom flat, it’s spacious, bright, with lots of plants, books, and art. Unlike a hotel room, you feel like you could spend all day relaxing here, eating cheese and bread, drinking wine, and enjoying the breathtaking view, watching the sun rise and set from the large terrace. Like most Haussmann-style buildings in Paris, you will have to travel up five flights of narrow-winding stairs (no elevator), but it’s just another piece that adds to the local experience and charm. The location is unbeatable, right in the heart of the Marais, just a few feet from shops, restaurants, bakeries, cafes, the metro, the Centre Pompidou, and a short walk to the Seine, Picasso Museum, Place de Vosge, Hotel de Ville and much more. Lola was a great host, easy to communicate with, quick to respond, and left us a list of great recommendations. We would definitely to stay here again!
