In Full Colour

Set in the buzzy 10th arrondissement, this colourful home is an excellent base for a family stay in Paris. Expect to find some of the homeowner’s personal belongings here – but that all adds to the character of this place, we think. It’s also worth noting the second bedroom with a mezzanine single bed is better suited to children, and the small bathtub over a shower is a little quirky. Location-wise, you’re situated only a few short streets from Gare du Nord’s bustling markets and vibey canalside gourmet scene. Need to be someplace fast? The Metro is just a four-minute walk from your door.

Home truths:
*This home sleeps three guests, with the last guest sleeping on a mezzanine bed, which is better suited to children. It’s worth noting the steps up to the mezzanine bed are narrow and may not be suitable for very young children.
*You’ll share an entrance and lift access at this apartment building.
*This apartment does not have air conditioning or a TV.
*A cot is available for little ones.
*The small bathtub is only suitable for bathing little ones, but there's a shower over the bath, too. The WC is separate from the bathroom.
*This is a lived-in home. You should expect some of the host's personal belongings to be present during your stay.
*Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.
