Just steps from the elegant Place de la Madeleine, this apartment makes a cosy base for a couple or solo traveller in the City of Love. The location is what makes this home special – there's a quiet courtyard outside and the famous Tuileries Garden, Concord Square, and the Louvre are within easy walking distance, along with the Havre-Caumartin and Opéra underground stations for traversing Paris with ease. Indoors, wardrobe space is limited and you won't find an oven, but there is a stove for prepping simple meals and you'll find an array of fantastic restaurants on the surrounding streets, so you're never far from a good meal.

Home truths:
*Parking in Paris can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to easily accessible public transport where possible.
*You won't find an oven here – though there is a hob. We think the kitchen is better suited to prepping lighter bites than large meals.
*This home is short on wardrobe space, so we'd recommend packing light.
*This home is accessed via a courtyard, which is secured with a code. You'll need another code to access the apartment, and there is a watchman on the property for security.
*You can expect to bump into other residents of the building during your stay.
