Description Croissants & Couture: Paris

Tucked into Rue Marbeuf in Paris's Golden Triangle – the coveted stretch between the Champs-Élysées and Avenue Montaigne – this sixth-floor apartment is about as well-placed as it gets. Haussmannian bones show in the parquet floors and sweeping bedroom ceilings, while the marble bathroom brings a hotel-like edge to the whole stay. A twenty-four-hour concierge mean you can focus entirely on the city outside, where the Eiffel Tower is a nineteen-minute walk and the Musée d'Orsay a twenty-nine-minute stroll.

Home truths:
* The lift takes you to the fifth floor, but you'll need to climb one additional flight of stairs to reach the apartment on the sixth floor.
* The bathroom in this home is very small. That said, it has everything you need to get ready for the day.
* The only bathroom here is an en-suite off the main bedroom – at full occupancy, privacy may be limited.
* At full occupancy, two guests will sleep on the sofa bed in the living area.
