With views out onto the green courtyard, you wouldn't think this south-facing Parisian hideaway is just a three-minute walk away from the iconic Champs-Élysées. Boasting a refined setting in a prime location for shopping, fine dining and sightseeing, the classic French touch abounds here. Quality is of the essence – think quartz kitchen worktops, fluffy bath towels, satin bed sheets and carefully selected works of art. And every detail is taken care of, from high-speed wifi and luxe toiletries down to the Nespresso machine for your morning cup of coffee. We loved how bright, quiet and serene the living space was – if it weren't for the great location, we'd never want to leave. Speaking of locales, when you're ready to see what Paris has to offer, you'll be spoilt for choice. This is one of the city's most sought-after neighbourhoods, where museums, monuments and world-class boutiques are around every corner. Stroll five minutes to the Arc de Triomphe and climb to the top for some of the best views in Paris or get your culture game on with an exhibition at Palais de Tokyo, seventeen minutes away on foot (even less by metro). For those wanting a quintessential Parisian... experience, look no further.

Local guide
About Arc de Triomphe - Champs-Élysées
The Champs Elysees is one of the most famous streets in the world, so be prepared to come up against a fair few tourists, though you can sidestep the hordes pretty easily by exploring the side streets just off the main drag. For most, it's a mandatory stop, if only to catch a glimpse of the monumental Arc de Triomphe which crowns the avenue and which was commissioned by Napoléon...
