Sky Jaima

Sky Jaima: Île-de-France

This spacious duplex is all about its socialising spaces – there are two cosy living rooms in earthy tones with plenty of comfortable seating and two terraces featuring panoramic views over the rooftops. There's also character aplenty, with a contemporary art collection and antiques. While the kitchen and bathrooms have more of a retro-kitsch feel to them, your host has taken great care to preserve them in a spotless condition. This Rive Gauche location is ideal for a group looking to escape the central bustle while still remaining close to the buzzing quarter of Saint-Germain.
