The Bathing Suit Paris, Île-de-France

Holiday Rental Description

A thoughtfully designed apartment with a classic Parisian look and yet with all the usual mod-cons needed for a comfortable stay in the city of love. But what really caught our eye was this home's sought after location that boasts a central Marais postcode, just steps away from the Picasso Museum. A stroll around the immediate neighbourhood will have you passing indie bookshops, luxury boutiques and alfresco coffee houses that all share a close-knit, authentic feel. Back inside, this vintage pad makes a bold statement with its modern kitchen and terrazzo bathroom, in stark contrast to the home's historic charm – it features geometric parquet and an original timber mantelpiece that we really love. A couple looking for a stylish bolthole in the heart of one of Paris' trendiest districts will find The Bathing Suit ticks all the right boxes for a memorable stay.

Home truths:
*At capacity, two people will be sleeping on a sofa bed in the living room
*The decor is quite minimalist and some guests may find it sparse
*The bedroom faces out to the street and although it's a fairly quiet one, you should expect to hear some cars, particularly with the windows open
*There is no air conditioning in this home
