Free Man in Paris

Less than five minutes' walk from the opulence of Palais-Royal, there's something quite palatial about this apartment, too. Some of this is down to the high ceilings and tall windows, but there's also a noticeable touch of grandeur in its modern design.

However, the apartment's lavish size is a major reason, too. The mezzanine arrangement increases the living area in the home without it ever feeling cramped in any way, while open-plan modern kitchen is perfect for socialising whilst you try your hand at French cuisine.

Another big perk with this home is that many of the city's most famous attractions are but a short wander away. For instance, the Louvre takes seven minutes to reach on foot and its contemporary acquaintance, the Centre Pompidou, is a thirteen-minute walk.

Home truths:
*The building has no lift to reach this apartment and there's a staircase in the home to reach the mezzanine level, so it might not be suitable for guests with reduced mobility
*There's no private parking, although there's a public car park three minutes' walk down the road — Palais Royal - Musée du Louvre metro station is only five minutes' walk away
*The apartment doesn't have a private entrance.
