A Little Flourish

Stay at this charming apartment, just a few minutes' stroll from Rue Lafayette, for a quieter, non-tourist view of the city. Located in the lovely neighbourhood of Rue de Chabrol, where indie shops, bakeries, cafés and restaurants line the atmospheric streets, you're bound to feel like a local in this desirable spot. Other must-see landmarks are within easy reach, including the Sacré-Cœur, the Palais Garnier, and Galeries Lafayette Haussmann, and with a metro stop right around the corner, getting around the city is piece of cake.

When you're back from an exciting day in the city, spend time unwinding in the cosy living space. Styled in neutral tones, with modern furnishings, curated houseplants and appealing art prints, this newly renovated home is warm and inviting throughout. The bedroom is just as tastefully curated, with palm-themed wallpaper and ambient lighting, adding another level of calm and comfort. Later, knock up your take on a French classic in the metro-tiled kitchen for a relaxed dinner at home – that's if you're not out sampling the culinary delights of Paris each and every evening.
