The Nomad

The Nomad: Île-de-France

Parquet flooring, ornate wainscotting, and Juliet balconies at every window – this apartment is the epitome of Parisian chic. Brimming with worldly antiques (including a Buddha statue) as well as striking artwork, the atmosphere here is eclectic and grand. Frankly, we can't get enough of this place – imagine waking up to the sunlight streaming through the sash windows, enjoying a luxurious breakfast in the breezy kitchen and sipping coffee as you overlook the city streets. There are two impressive living areas (one doubles as a study), so there's more than enough space for even large groups to spread out. And the bedrooms are a dream, particularly the four-posters draped in vibrant curtains and the unique round bed in the fourth bedroom. You couldn't ask for a better spot to take in the magic of Paris. This home is in the heart of the city, halfway between the Opéra Garnier and the Palais Royal, overlooking the bustling Avenue de l'Opéra. Pyramides Station is right next to the building, while sights like the Louvre and the Tuileries Gardens are less than a ten-minute stroll away.

Home truths:
*If you do decide to drive, there is free street parking as well as a paid parking garage three minutes away
*There is portable air conditioning available in the bedrooms during the summer
* The living room, study and master bedroom all overlook L’avenue de l'Opéra so some traffic noise is to be expected – with the windows open it's a lot more noticeable
* Some of the antiques in this home are fragile so if you are travelling with younger children be careful - the objects could be removed upon request
* Two guests may use the sofa-bed in the study – as it's separated from the main living space, they will enjoy a high level of privacy
*​​The maid comes to clean and do the guest's laundry every other day – this is included in your stay
