This charming studio apartment is the perfect place to experience authentic Paris. It’s in the heart of Saint-Germain-des-Prés, just a short walk from Jardins du Luxembourg, the Seine, and many of Paris’ most loved sights. To visit further-afield attractions, you need only hop on the metro at Saint-Placide, which is four minutes away on foot. The apartment features exposed beams and a mezzanine sleeping area, with two guests on a sofa bed below. We were taken by how light the home is, and how much room there is – for a studio in Paris, it’s practically palatial.

Home truths
There are stairs to climb at this home so it may not be suitable for those with reduced mobility – the apartment is on the second floor of the building with no lift.
At full occupancy, two guests will be sleeping on a sofa bed in the living room. The bedroom is at mezzanine level, partially open to the floor below so it’s not the most private.
The dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace.

Saint-Germain-des-Prés has it all: location, buzz, romance, a bohemian past, luxury shopping, art galleries, as well as famous monuments, historic churches and of course its iconic cafes, where intellectuals like Sartre and Hemingway used to hang out back in the day.
