What I Need

What I Need: Île-de-France

Business travellers and tourists planning a long weekend will feel right at home in this unfussy apartment. While the place is compact, the kitchen has plenty of counter space for prepping your favourite dinners, and there’s a desk for anyone who wants to work remotely. The sofa bed sleeps two guests, though we think it’s better suited for one person. When you’re ready to head out, the fashionable Marais neighbourhood is a twenty-minute bus ride away, and you’re a twenty-six-minute metro ride from the Louvre Museum.


Home truths:
*At capacity, two guests will sleep on the sofa bed in the living space. While there is sleeping space for four guests, it’s a bit of a squeeze for that many people – we recommend this home for three guests maximum.
*Parking in Paris can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to easily accessible public transport where possible.
*There are no windows in the en-suite bathroom, so it is lacking natural ventilation.
