A French Heart

Holiday Rental Description

French elegance radiates from every corner of this apartment. Designer wallpaper, ornamental fireplaces, ornate crown moulding – if you're after a characteristic stay, this is it. There's plenty of space for six, though a period home like this does come with a few quirks – both bathrooms are en-suite and the kitchen is on the smaller side. In terms of location, however, you're in an excellent spot. Multiple metro stations are within walking distance – the closest is Vaneau, a five-minute stroll away – and you've got the cafes, restaurants, and boutiques in artsy Saint-Germain-des-Prés easily reached on foot.

Home truths:
*The guest staying in the second bedroom will have to use the en-suite in the other bedrooms.
*Parking isn't provided, but there's a metro station a five-minute walk away.
*The fireplaces in this home are ornamental.
*There isn't a desk here, but the dining table doubles as a laptop-friendly workspace.
*Given the central location, some street noise is to be expected.
