"Charming" "Perfect" "Comfortable" "Wonderful" are common comments from our new and returning guests (we can share emails). Our 2+ bedroom apartment is located in one of Paris’ most desirable neighborhoods – on the Left Bank in the heart of the safest neighborhod, the 7th Arrondisement. Here, within a few blocks of the Eiffel Tower and the huge gilded dome of Invalides, you will discover the “vrai” (real) Paris.
We completely renovated our 4 room apartment in July, 2005 to blend the best of old and new in the exceptionally well laid out 85 sq. meters (approx 950 sq feet). It is in a superbly maintained Art Deco building. The charming furnishings are mostly in the Art Nouveau/Art Deco styles and were chosen for their comfort too. Situated on the 2nd floor American (1st floor French), there is a wooden Deco elevator for easy access. There are only two apartments per floor, so the apartment is quiet and private. There are top quality appliances & furniture and all of the windows are new double paned, so it is incredibly quiet from outside noise!
Furnished with a mix of modern and antique furnishings, the apartment evoques the Art Deco / Art Nouveau periods. The 4 principal rooms:
* "designer" living room with 3 windows on a charming street
* 2 large bedrooms with windows on the private courtyard
* spacious dining room with large windows on the street ... this room has a quality sofa bed and may be closed off as a lovely & private 3rd bedroom.
In addition, there is a modern, separate and very well equipped kitchen; a large dramatic entry; a long hallway to the private bedrooms area; a modern bathroom and a separate modern toilette.
Sleeping arrangements: The apartment sleeps up to 6 guests very comfortably and is comfortable to feed/entertain much larger groups.
* At the end of a long and pretty hallway you find the largest bedroom with a king size bed (this can also be made up as 2 twin beds), a fireplace, lots of closets, and a small Deco seating area.
* The second large bedroom, at the other end of the hallway, has a queen size bed, cable tv, a big closet, and a charming desk & comfy reading corner.
* The large bathroom and seperate wc are between these two bedrooms, which gives additional privacy.
* The high quality sofa in the large dining room opens into a comfortable double bed - The location (off the entry and away from the other bedrooms) and the lovely period doors, combine to make this another private, attractive and very comfortable space for 2 to sleep.
In addition to sleeping 6, the apartment is very comfortable for 6+ people to live ... i.e. relax, eat, cook, entertain ... to really “live” in Paris. Located in an elegant and fun neighborhood, you will find it unusually friendly (for Paris) with lots to do for all ages (very near to parks, transportation, cafes, museums, and friendly merchants).
The neighborhood:
The best of everything is literally at your doorstep! We maintain a list for you of the neighborhood's:
* charming shops to browse,
* wonderful and varied small restaurants & cafes (several are "cuisine guide" listed - others are less advertised but also wonderful),
* world famous museums (including the D'Orsay, Rodin, huge new Branley and several smaller "less known" ones),
* architecturally beautiful streets that invite you to wander,
* among the most famous street markets in all of Paris (and certainly among the best!) – rue Cler - is just around the corner and open 6 days a week! Several other good markets are a quick walk, should you want to compare and explore smaller/lesser known ones.
A short walk will take you along wonderful paths to Invalides and Napoleon’s tomb; the Eiffel Tower with it’s day and night spectacles; the Champs de Mars’ wonderful gardens, playground and "Guignol" (marionettes); the Museums like the Rodin, D'Orday, Branley and others; the wonderful Quais along the Seine and over one of the bridges to the right bank and to the Champs Elysees (it is quite close too!); and so much more.
For times when you want to travel further, the Metro station Latour Mauborg is a short walk from the apartment (Ecole Militaire also very close). There are also several bus lines that stop right at the corners for those who are curious to travel Paris "above ground".
Location: Although surrounded by busy streets with lots to see and do, the apartment is located in a smaller building on a calm street – rue Duvivier. The cross streets are rue de Grenelle and rue du Champs de Mars – just parallel to the best market block of rue Cler. We hope to see you there soon!
