Smiling Palms

Located in a quiet street in Paris’ Sentier neighbourhood, this elegant apartment that was once a shop is an ideal base for those wanting to get the most out of the city’s history and culture. Though compact, this luxurious space packs a decorative punch with its palm feature wall, sumptuous bed and sleek details. You’ll feel positively aristocratic lounging on the chaise longue with a glass of bubbly after a day of seeing the sights, while the chic little dining table provides the perfect start to the day over coffee and croissants from a local bakery. With a white marble bathroom boasting a rainfall shower that looks like it belongs in a boutique hotel, you’re all set to experience the city in debonair style. Outside of your home, you’re a fourteen-minute walk from the Marais’ cobbled streets lined with vintage shops and cosy restaurants, a twenty minutes stroll from both the Canal Saint-Martin and the Louvre, while those with a penchant for sweet treats will rejoice in the Musée du Chocolat, a three-minute walk from your door.
