Tucked away in a quiet courtyard in Montorgueil, close to the Marais, this home is a peaceful hideaway in the city. It’s on a semi-pedestrian street just 50 metres from Sentier metro, surrounded by shops and bars. The apartment is bright and attractive, a converted loft on the third floor of the building – you’ll need to be ready to tackle quite a few stairs. The bedroom is on an open mezzanine level, with two guests on a sofa bed in the living room below, so it’s not the most private setup. But for a location like this, that’s easily forgiven.

Home truths:
*At full occupancy, two guests will be sleeping on a sofa bed in the living room. The bedroom is at mezzanine level and is partially open to the floor below, so it’s not entirely private.
*There are stairs to climb at this home, so it may not be suitable for those with reduced mobility – it’s on the third floor of the building with no lift.
*There’s a desk here for those working during their stay.
*This home is on a semi-pedestrian street. Parking in Paris can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to the easily accessible public transport. Sentier metro station is just 50 metres away.
