The Bonsai

If you're coming to Paris for the first time, a stay in Le Marais is highly recommended. The neighbourhood has the je ne sais quoi that people search for when they visit the French capital — winding cobbled streets, a wide choice of art galleries and plenty of late-night bars and cafes in which to enjoy a glass of red on a street-side table. This apartment is found in the heart of the area and despite the ceaseless activity happening at ground level, the space is as calm as they come. The interior design is effortlessly chic, from the modern palette of greys and velvet cushions on the plush sofa to the minimalist kitchen finished in white. We appreciated the Juliet balcony too, which will be lovely to open up and gaze out of on summer days.
