Less than five minutes' walk from the opulence of Palais-Royal, there's something quite palatial about this apartment, too. Some of this is down to the high ceilings and tall windows, but there's also a noticeable touch of grandeur in its modern design. However, the apartment's lavish size is a major reason, too. The mezzanine arrangement increases the living area in the home without it ever feeling cramped in any way, while open-plan modern kitchen is perfect for socialising whilst you try your hand at French cuisine. Another big perk with this home is that many of the city's most famous attractions are but a short wander away. For instance, the Louvre takes seven minutes to reach on foot and its contemporary acquaintance, the Centre Pompidou, is a thirteen-minute walk.

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.
