Marble Blossoms

Marble Blossoms: Île-de-France

You'll find this modern apartment in Ternes, not far from the Arc de Triomphe, Parc Monceau, and a metro station for adventures further afield. As far as locales go, this is one of Paris' most enviable spots, so you'll be well-placed to discover the trendy bistros and local markets. Back home, two guests will sleep on a sofa bed (though it'll be tight), while the dining table doubles as a laptop-friendly workspace if you're travelling on business. Even if it isn't the largest home in our collection, we think it works well for short trips.

Home truths:
*At full capacity, two guests will sleep on the sofa bed in the living area. Space will be tight with it in use, so we think this home is best for two.
*This apartment lacks some homey touches, making it better suited for business travellers and quick trips.
*There isn't a desk here, but the dining table can double as a desk if you plan to work from home.
*As the apartment overlooks the street, some noise is to be expected.
*You won't find an oven here – though there is a hob. We think the kitchen is better suited to prepping lighter bites than large meals.
