You’ll find this grand apartment just a short walk from the Louvre Museum, Orangerie Museum and the Tuileries Gardens. The address is fantastic – but what about the apartment? Well, as you can see, this elegant home is a bit of a gem. We love the large windows and the character features in the open-plan living space. There’s a well-equipped kitchen for when you want to do some home cooking as well or let the host here arrange a private chef to create some special meals.

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.
