L'Accordéoniste

Holiday Rental Description

Le Marais has gone through many makeovers in its long and interesting history, but today it's primarily known for its plethora of art galleries, quirky shops and contemporary restaurants, all found within the neighbourhood's map of winding streets and historic buildings. As such, it's an ideal place to stay for somebody coming to visit Paris purely for the purpose of pleasure.

This recently renovated apartment puts you right in the middle of the district and is a picture of modernity thanks to its statement light fittings, abstract wall prints and fashionable mid-century furniture. Large windows are found in most rooms, which lets natural light flood in and bounce pleasingly off the wooden parquet flooring and stark white walls, making for an instantly bright and inviting space.

When you're ready for the day ahead, there's a trio of musées within a three-minute walk — Cognacq-Jay for decorative treasures, Carnavalet for historic artefacts and Picasso-Paris for a large collection of work from one of the 20th century's most celebrated artists.
