Perfect for the literary set, this bright apartment is filled with books and cosy spots to curl up for a read. We think it's comfortable and practical – the large kitchen is especially handy, and there's an added bonus of a small balcony where you can enjoy the sunshine. If needed, the sofa bed can accommodate two additional guests on request. You'll find it in the buzzy Latin Quarter, famous for its used bookstores and trendy eateries popular with Sorbonne students. This is an excellent spot to explore on foot – the Panthéon, Notre Dame, and the Jardin des Plantes are all within walking distance.
