Zebra Blues

Holiday Rental Description

South Pigalle is known for its vibrant atmosphere, full of cocktail bars, bustling cafés, and the world-famous Moulin Rouge. Five minutes from Pigalle metro, and a ten-minute walk from the iconic windmill itself, this apartment is set in one of the quarter’s trendy areas by the historic Rue des Martyrs. Quite the opposite of this lively street, the entrance to your home is set in a tranquil courtyard with flowing foliage. The interiors are understated and modern, but you’ll still find traditional elements such as panelled walls, parquet floors, and a wrought-iron balconette on the French window. As for less traditional features, how about blue, floor-to-ceiling zebra-print curtains? We also love the matching chair – this fabric brings such a playful and quirky edge to this otherwise sophisticated abode. After a morning espresso at the sleek breakfast bar, head out for bakery-fresh pain aux raisins. You’ll need this to satisfy your appetite as you wind your way up the hill to the Sacré-Cœur. This eleven-minute walk through the colourful streets of Montmartre is worth it for the incredible views of the city and basilica.

Home truths:
* Your host can provide housekeeping for an extra fee

* While the home is suitable for a family with older children, the host does not accept bookings with young children or infants

* As this home is on the ground floor, it overlooks the courtyard of the building rather than sweeping city views

* At full capacity, one extra adult or two children can sleep on the double sofa bed in the lounge – you'll struggle to sleep four adults here (at maximum capacity, you'll also have very limited lounge and dining space)
