Description Parisian Haze: Paris

Surrounded by boutiques, trendy restaurants, and sidewalk cafes, you couldn't ask for a better Parisian base than this central apartment. The famous Galeries Lafayette is a short walk away – ideal for fashionistas – while culture vultures can get their fix at the Louvre or Palais Garnier. Easy access to the metro means you can explore at your own pace, though in between adventures, you'll love coming home to this charming pad. Though it's on the third floor, it's full of characterful touches – Juliet balconies, parquet floor, and ornate crown moulding. It has everything you need for a relaxed stay, including a pull-out bed for two.

Home truths:
*The second bedroom has a single bed that can transform into a double.
*This apartment is on the third floor of a building without an elevator. Expect to climb quite a few stairs here.
*There isn't free parking here, but a car isn't needed in Paris. Instead of driving, explore on foot or take advantage of the city's excellent public transportation.
