Arc & Ember

Sitting quietly in the 16th arrondissement, this light-filled apartment is a calm base with serious sightseeing range – the Arc de Triomphe is a ten-minute walk, the Palais de Chaillot a twelve-minute stroll, and the Trocadéro Gardens a little further. Tall Parisian windows and classic iron balconies frame the dining area, while a private terrace makes alfresco evenings on a residential street entirely possible. Both bedrooms have their own en-suite shower rooms, and two metro stations are within a five-minute walk for days when you want the city on demand.

Home truths:
* At full occupancy, two guests will sleep on the sofa bed in the living area.

* If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a folding cot. You'll need to request it in advance. Your host can also arrange babysitting through the platform's VIP service.
