Ivy Garland: Île-de-France

Housed within a typical 19th-century building in Paris’ Les Halles district, this bright apartment exudes sumptuous elegance and French refinement. From the tall ceilings to the wood floors and chandelier, the living room has an air of decadent sophistication that feels effortlessly Parisian. Kick back on the plump velvet sofa with a glass of wine as the electric log fire burns quietly in the background, or catch up on work at the bedroom’s cosy desk space – the large windows' views are sure to inspire. With a rainfall shower to wake up to and a luxurious bed to sink into at the end of the night, you’ve got everything you need for a comfortable and blissfully relaxing stay. Outside of your home, the Louvre is just a fifteen-minute walk away, Notre Dame is reachable in twenty minutes on foot, while the Marais’ cobbled streets – a five-minute stroll – are packed with trendy bars, traditional cafes and cool vintage shops to explore.

Home truths:
*Unfortunately, this home isn't suitable for children or infants
*Out of respect for the neighbours, guests are asked to keep noise levels to a minimum at all times
*While the apartment is accessed from a busy street, the home actually looks into a pedestrian street making it a quiet stay
*For stays of more than two weeks, an additional cleaning fee of €45 is charged per additional two weeks
*This home has a very strict no smoking policy
*There's a paid multistorey car park nearby, but we recommend skipping the car and making use of Paris' excellent public transport instead – Étienne Marcel Metro station is a one-minute walk away
