Ode to Saint Dominique

You'll be off to a flying start in Paris with a stay at this loft-style apartment. Located slap bang in the middle of the well-heeled 7th Arrondissement – home to the city's most iconic landmarks – and just a four-minute amble from the Metro, locations don't get much better.

Stroll through the district's smart, tree-lined streets to the impressionist art showcase Musée d'Orsay or the emblematic Eiffel Tower – both just fifteen minutes on foot. Should thoughts turn to food, there's plenty of bistros to dive into, or saunter over to the manicured lawns of the Jardin du Luxembourg (half-an-hour on foot) for a picnic.

When it's finally time to rest up, this Parisian bolthole is a joy to return home to. The galleried open concept living space brings all the wow factor, and by Parisian standards, this place is vast. Natural daylight floods through the floor-to-ceiling Juliet balcony windows, while industrial statement lighting and a matt black gallery kitchen bring all the loft-style vibes.

An excellent choice for guests sharing, bedrooms (each with its own bathroom) are spaced apart over the two floors to give everyone that little extra privacy. And for those planning to work and play in the city, there's a dedicated office room looking out onto a quiet courtyard –⁠ so there's nothing to distract you here.
