This bright apartment is in the heart of Paris, just a one-minute walk from Saint Germain Boulevard. It’s within walking distance of the Luxembourg Gardens and Orsay Museum, among many other famous sights. There are chic bars, cafes, and restaurants nearby. Saint Germain des Près metro station is close, too, so getting around Paris is as easy as can be. For a location like this, there are some compromises to make: two guests will be sleeping on a sofa bed in the living space, and the decor is corporate in style. It’s also worth pointing out that the lift only goes up to the fifth floor, so to reach this sixth-floor home, you’ll need to be able to climb a flight of stairs.
