Make the memories last for a lifetime when you stay in the former home of King Charles IX's mistress. With an interior designed by Jacques Grange to complement 17th-century wood beams and vaulted ceilings, inside you'll find two plush reception rooms. While the third bedroom is a bit dark and lacks proper privacy for the en-suite, it's a twin room that is good for kids. Located on the oldest square in Paris, surrounded by attractions and eateries, this is bound to be an unforgettable trip.

Home truths
While one bathroom isn’t photographed, expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home.
This home does not accept groups of young people. Please speak with your host to find out what the age restrictions are.

If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a high chair for free. You'll need to request it in advance.
Bed linen and towels will be changed every three days.
