Sculpted Ivory

Steps from the Champs-Élysées, this 8th arrondissement apartment knocks it out of the park when it comes to location. You couldn't be better placed for shopping, sightseeing, or soaking up the Parisian atmosphere. Getting around on foot is a cinch, and there are metro stations nearby for trips further afield. Back home, you'll find a living space chock-full of traditional features and natural light. It's the perfect spot to decompress after a day out. The kitchen is quite compact, so cooking big meals won't be on the itinerary. Instead, indulge in the city's celebrated culinary scene – this is Paris, after all.

Home truths:
*At full capacity, two guests will sleep on a sofa bed in the living area.
*As is common in France, one of the toilets is separate from the bathrooms.
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot upon request.
*You won't find an oven here – though there is a small hob. We think the compact kitchen is better suited to prepping lighter bites than large meals.
*Parking isn't provided, but you won't need a car in Paris. Instead of driving, we suggest exploring on foot or taking advantage of nearby public transportation – a metro station is a short walk away.
