Cosy and curious, this petite apartment is housed in one of Paris’ oldest buildings. Exposed beams add to the historic charm – the style won’t be to everyone’s taste. This is a studio apartment, so you’ll be sleeping on a sofa bed in the living and dining space – we recommend packing light if you don’t want it to feel crowded. Happily, you’re in the heart of Le Marais, so you’ve every reason to spend your time out and about exploring. Musée Picasso is just a stone’s throw away, and you can reach pretty Île Saint Louis in no time. Saint Paul metro is close too, making seeing further-afield sights as easy as can be.

This is an historic home so the decor won’t be to everyone’s taste.
Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.
