Exquisite, spacious, stylish apartment in a suberb location allows you to experience Paris like a resident. Don't miss the chance to stay here--everything about the apartment is carefully thought out and as beautiful as Paris itself. The host is delightful and hospitable but never intrusive. You'll be spoiled by the amount of room you have to enjoy, the lovely and functional kitchen, very comfortable bed, elevator, gracious courtyard building with gated entry and easy walking distance to museums, nightlife, great restaurants and transit. I know, this sounds like an advertisement, but we really did enjoy it this much. Best Airbnb experience so far.
Tips for enjoying the neighborhood. Art lovers--the Pompidou is a stone's throw away and will blow your mind with its collection of modern and contemporary art--perhaps the best in the world. The lovely Picasso museum is a short walk in the other direction--enjoy the jewel-box historic setting and incredible collection of the great master's work. The cafe on the top floor was delightful as well. The d'Orsay museum, l'Orangerie (for the Monet water lily mural environments) and numerous high end galleries around this neighborhood are all worth your time. Saturday afternoons are hopping in the Marais with the beautiful people out enjoying gallery openings--join them!
Shakespeare and Co. for books, Duc des Lombards and Chez Papa for jazz and just about any neighborhood cafe for lunch and dinner.
GREAT spot, GREAT location, GREAT host, just book it and have a blast in Paris.
