An ideal base in the heart of the Marais, this comfortable studio apartment provides everything you need for a care-free stay in the city. From its chic, colourful decor to its sleek amenities, there’s a touch of artsy flair in its design that feels wonderfully unique. We love the art prints that deck the walls and the cosy lounge space with its bright blue sofa that matches the shade of sky used for the bathroom. Factor in a cute kitchenette and a beautifully dressed bed and you’ve got everything you need for a good time. Outside of your home, a plethora of cafes, boutiques and galleries wait to be discovered, while both the Centre Pompidou and the Musée National Picasso are a seven-minute walk away. Elsewhere, the Louvre and Notre Dame are reachable in twenty minutes on foot and the Canal Saint-Martin is a fifteen-minute stroll, ideal for afternoon ambles and evening waterside drinks.


Home truths:

*This home is on the first floor of a building with no lift
*It's right on Rue du Temple which is a busy street so may hear some street noise, particularly with the windows open

*You'll need to bring your own shampoo

*There's no parking here, but we recommend skipping the car and using Paris' excellent public transport instead – Rambuteau station is a four-minute walk away
