A super-cute apartment in an amazing neighborhood at the Butte de Montmartre in Paris. A few key items:
- Bring good walking shoes (sorry for the obvious). It is hilly and wonderful to walk around.
- Metros close by - Abesses, Pigalle, Lamarck-Coulaincourt
- Bakery - We loved Le Grenier a Pain.
- Bd de Clichy is a large, famous road with basic grocery store Monop (next to Pigalle metro) as well as all types of other shopping.
- Sacre-Coeur and Place du Tertre are a short walk away - beautiful views, brasseries, etc. Touristy, but definitely worth a visit
- Neighborhood is full of “small” tributes to famous artists that lived and worked in this area - Picasso, Dalida, Van Gogh, Marcel Ayme, etc. etc. etc.
- Cafe, Brasserie, Restaurant - all over, some are “touristy” so look at current reviews or search off the beaten path.
- Pharmacie du Bateau-Lavoir - special shout out for kind and helpful service.
- Make reservations ahead for museums and important sites. They sell out and also some have free days if you can catch them.
