If you love Paris as much as we do, but are tired of
expensive, impersonal hotels, our accommodation is for you. You can live like a
local and get an insider’s view of Paris, the world’s most romantic city.
With long distance travellers in mind, we chose, light,
airy, quiet places where you feel at home as soon as you’ve unpacked. Our
apartments are all conveniently located in top, safe neighbourhoods, close to
shops and restaurants. You can experience the pleasure of strolling around
typical Paris streets and markets with their legendary range of seasonal
produce. Your fully equipped kitchen means you can have fabulous meals at home.
You have a choice of three apartments in the heart of Paris,
two on the Left Bank a few minutes walk from the Eiffel Tower, and the third
across the Seine in the chic sixteenth arrondisement.
The Left Bank apartments are a short bus or metro ride from
the Louvre, the Marais, the Latin Quarter and St Germain des Pres, and a 5
minute walk from the Seine. One apartment is between the florist pictured above
and the wonderful Secco bakery, where the locals queue to buy the best
croissants in Paris.
The apartment in the sixteenth arrondissement is a favourite
of many or our regulars and overlooks elegant apartment buildings and banks of
plane trees. It is close to a market square, two metro lines, two bus routes
and Roland Garros, home of the French Open Tennis Championships.
How to get to Paris from the airport.
From Charles de Gaulle (CGD) International Airport, take the Air France bus ('cars Air France') to the stop called Etoile, which is by the Arc de Triomphe at Place de l'Etoile.
From Terminal 1 at CDG, go out door 36 and cross the road and you will see a bus stand with Etoile written on the road. The other CDG terminals also have Air France stops out the front.
You can buy single ('aller simple') or return ('aller-retour') tickets fromt eh bus driver, but you'll need to pay in cash.
The buses run every 10 to 15 minutes till 10pm.
