Tristan’s charming apartment overlooking the Seine imbued our week in Paris with a kind of magic that can’t be found in hotels or sterile modern apartments. From the wood beam ceilings to the spacious living room and spectacular view, this place exceeded our expectations in every way. Although situated above a busy street, the unit is on the 6th floor, and only occasional murmurs of the neighborhood’s activities filter in. On the next corner is a wonderful boulangerie (we consumed at least a baguette a day, as well as all manner of pastries), and there’s a grocery across the street from the building entrance. Lots of restaurants and shops in easy walking distance too. I could go on and on about all the wonderful elements of both the neighborhood and Tristan’s apartment, but one of the things we especially loved was the decor: Tristan’s home is tastefully populated by books, old photography equipment, and artistic prints. Every time we crossed the threshold, we felt like we were coming home. I can’t recommend Tristan’s apartment enough. Enjoy!
