Walk to Arc de Triomphe for bird's eye view of grand Avenues like Champs Elysees
Location: Paris Arrondissement 8, Paris, Ile-de-France (Paris Area), France, Europe (The 8th, 16th and 17 arr. merge at the Arc de Triomphe)
Accommodations: Apartment, 1 Bedroom + Convertible bed(s), 1 Bath (Sleeps 4)
Events of September 11th and United's bankruptcy caused me to take an early retirement from United Airlines' Paris base so my wonderful Paris apartment is now available for YOU to enjoy while I'm in San Diego and I now offer unlimited calling to the USA and Canada and throughout Western Europe and France for FREE. Wireless internet, also.
This one-bedroom apartment has the privacy of two bedrooms. Living room door closes and occupants of each room have access to toilet, bathroom, and kitchen without disturbing the other; important when you first arrive and jet-lag makes for irregular sleeping hours. Twin beds in bedroom can be pushed together to make a king-size bed. Very comfortable double-size, fold-down couch in living room. Bathroom has big soaking tub and both fixed and hand-held shower heads, and a washer/dryer for light loads of laundry.
Fifth floor apartment with elevator big enough for several people and their luggage! All-glass living room wall opens wide onto private balcony overlooking center gardens (please water my flowers!). No city noise. Light and sunny. View of lovely Victorian buildings. Loads of closet space (rare in Paris) to keep apartment orderly.
Everything you need to cook your own gourmet meals. Go French and get fresh food at nearby Poncelet, one of the largest daily outdoor markets in Paris, or if you prefer a US-style grocery store (with peanut butter, cereal, etc.) Galleries Gourmand is also nearby.
Convenient location. Walk five minutes to Arc de Triomphe Metro station where metro lines #1, #2, #6, and the RER-A and C will whisk you quickly to anywhere in the city. Most of the important streets of Paris radiate out from the Arc de Triomphe. Also walk to the Air France bus which goes nonstop to the airport every 15 minutes. Excellent neighborhood, prestige apartment building located on upscale Ave des Ternes, close to lots of shops, bakeries, and restaurants.
My quiet, nicely furnished apartment has everything you need for a comfortable vacation including an extensive library of guide books and maps of the city, metro and bus system, etc. Please read the comments in my online guestbook!
