Chosen by the Fine Living Channel as one of the most romantic apartments in the world, our two-bedroom, two-bath Paris apartment rental is absolutely stunning! See the video on our ParisPerfect Website and you’ll agree. At 675 square feet, it easily sleeps five people in air-conditioned comfort, and it boasts a balcony fronting both the living room and master bedroom with incredible views of the Eiffel Tower!
Located in the Left Bank just four blocks from the river Seine, Merlot looks out over the beautiful Champ de Mars park and the Eiffel Tower — only one block away. Directly across the street you can catch buses servicing all points of the city, and the Ecole Militaire metro is four blocks away, but the local neighborhood, the much sought-after 7th arrondissement, is packed with things to do and see. The neighborhood is unique in that it has retained its village-like atmosphere, and you’ll be surrounded by cafes, restaurants, open markets, and historic sites. Easily within walking distance are the Musee d'Orsay, Invalides, Bateaux Mouche boat tours, the Bon Marche Department Store, and the major fashion houses on Avenue Montaigne. The legendary rue Cler market street offering the finest in fresh foods is only three blocks away.
Step off the elevator and enter this apartment to a tastefully decorated entrance hallway. The bedrooms are to the right, and the first bathroom and kitchen are to the left. Directly ahead is the sun-filled living room with two French doors leading out onto the balcony and amazing views of the Eiffel Tower. This romantic room features original parquet floors, a beautiful marble fireplace, and a long sofa that converts to two twin beds at night. An antique commode and mirror sit between the two French doors, two built-in closets provide good storage, and stylish prints and other artistic touches complete this most enchanting living space.
Step onto the balcony to experience incredible views of the Eiffel Tower to your right and Parisian life below. The tower is an unforgettable view as the sun sets behind it and it softly lights up, and it’s magical when the light show comes on for 10 minutes every hour. Enjoy breakfast at the marble bistro table or toast your stay in our Paris apartment short term rental with champagne at night.
For entertainment there is TV with CNN, CNBC, etc, a U.S. standard DVD player so you can bring your favorite movies, and a stereo with CD player so you can listen to your favorite music. There is also a free wireless ADSL line for your computer, and a security safe for storing your valuables.
The dining table seats up to 8 and is on the right side of the room in front of one of the French doors. With a dramatic frieze mounted on the violet wall behind it and an awesome view of the Eiffel Tower, this may well be one of Paris’ most romantic dining venues.
The new kitchen features all of the appliances and accessories you need to cook gourmet meals. With open markets in every direction, a state-of-the-art kitchen, and a reserved table with a view every meal, our Merlot Paris apartment short term rental beats a hotel room every time.
Next to the kitchen is the first bathroom with a modern, full-size shower, a toilet, and a sink. With an 80-gallon hot water tank, a rarity in France, you can enjoy long hot shower after a full day of sightseeing.
The master bedroom of our Paris apartment short term rental is decorated in beige and chocolate brown with an antique-style Venetian headboard and elegant brown taffeta drapes for a very romantic feel. There is a new queen-size bed, good reading lamps, a second TV, and a built-in closet. Another set of French doors leads out onto the balcony for the same unforgettable views.
The second bathroom of our Paris apartment short term rental is newly remodeled in pale beige limestone tile. It has a full-size bathtub with showerhead, two antique stone sinks, and a mirrored medicine cabinet. For a whimsical touch, there’s a frieze of a mythical fish hanging above the bath. There are plenty of hooks for hanging things, a hair dryer, and good storage. Ample hot water means you can sink into a warm bath with a glass of French wine at the end of a long day of shopping or sightseeing, and there are plush white towels to wrap yourself in once you’re refreshed.
The second bedroom is very cheerful, decorated in yellows with a pretty Provencal-style quilt on the twin-size bed. There is a second twin bed that can be pulled out at night, a marble desk, a dresser, and a closet for storage and hanging.

Why the Owner Chose Paris Arrondissement 7
We tried many Paris neighborhoods over the years and living in an apartment in the 7th arrondissement in Paris offered the best access to everything we love and enjoy! Step outside and enjoy café’ au lait on rue Cler on a sunny morning, stroll to Paris landmarks, museums and monuments, to world class shopping on the Right Bank, to the Orsay Museum, the Louvre, Rodin Museum, Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe, Grand Palais, American Library. Take morning walks, picnics & bike rides in the Champs de Mars gardens, to romantic walks home along the river at sunset. It’s a beautiful old quartier near the romantic Seine that has maintained a village-like atmosphere, surrounded by bistros and shops so you can step outside and savor life. It's one of the safest arrondissements in Paris; it offers more open air markets than any arrondissement in Paris. It costs more to invest in the 7th, but to us, it is worth every penny. We greet our butcher, baker and local cheese specialist daily. They know what our favorite cheeses are and make favorite suggestions. They know the exact kind of baguette we want each day, not too brown and crusty for soft cheese. That is what we have been lucky enough to find in our neighborhood and we hope you’ll have a chance to enjoy the same special lifestyle.
The Unique Benefits at this Apartment
The balcony and Eiffel view! Share a bottle of wine at sunset and toast your arrival in Paris! Have cafe' au lait and croissants on sunny mornings.
Owner's Map of Paris Arrondissement 7
I was an American banker in London and met my husband Philippe, who was a cardiac surgeon in Paris. We bought our first apartment in Paris, our friends and family loved staying there for the fantastic location and views -- walking distance to cafe's, landmarks and wonderful shops. They loved the experience of living like a Parisian, shopping in the nearby open air markets for the freshest foods, buying warm baguettes next door, enjoying cafe' au lait on the balcony, eating at affordable brasseries and restaurants that Parisians go to around the corner. They asked if they could rent our pied a' terre when we were away and our Paris apartment rentals business began! Philippe left medicine for business and we commute between London and Paris on the Eurostar and have two great children who are French and American citizens... and who always correct my French grammar!
