Set mere moments from the Louvre, this apartment does not disappoint when it comes to location. This is as central as it gets – shops, restaurants, and Parisian landmarks are all easily reached on foot. Simple in design, the apartment is on the sixth floor – although the lift only reaches level five – and boasts quintessential Juliet balconies overlooking the street. Both bedrooms are cosy (albeit with limited storage space), with the option to split the beds into singles. There's also a sofa bed in the living area. We think it's a fuss-free base ideal for those who want to spend most of their time exploring.

Local guide
About Louvre - Palais Royal
Where to begin with one of Paris's most majestic and central districts? This was the stomping ground of historic kings, and now its grand palaces and squares are home to museums, galleries, government offices, and luxury shopping. With no fewer than three Royal palaces, the attractions are plentiful in this neck of the woods. If checking out the Mona Lisa with throngs of tourists isn't your thing, we recommend exploring some of the area's quieter hidden gems. Colonnes de Burennes has a gorgeous secret square and Alain Ducasse's world-famous French restaurant 'Le Meurice' is just around the corner.
