This classic Parisian apartment is a dream for admirers of Haussmann architecture and 18th-century art. With sweeping windows and tall, painted ceilings, this home feels nothing short of regal. Right in the heart of the 8th arrondissement, some of the city's prime spots are within walking distance, like the Opéra, the Louvre, and the Champs-Élysées. When you're ready to see the rest of Paris, you're only an eight-minute walk away from the nearest metro station. After a busy day of boutique browsing and cultural sightseeing, come home and dine at one of the area's gourmet restaurants.


Home truths:
*Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.
*This home is short on wardrobe space, so we'd recommend packing light.
*If you're travelling for work, you won't find a dedicated desk here. However, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace.
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot for free. You'll need to request it in advance.
