The open-plan kitchen is fully equipped with the latest materials and a dining table that is comfortable for 8. The sleek marble surfaces give the space a refined edge.

The spacious living room is beutifully decorated with arty paintings and lightings. High ceiling makes it feel even more spacious and comfortbale. There is also a smaller sitting room with tv and cable if you are up to a more cosy space.

On the ground floor come two en-suite bedrooms : One en-suite king size bedroom and one single bed (for personal helper) with a direct access to the laundry and kitchen.

On the first floor, 2 en-suite double bedrooms and a third master that can be used only for monthly rentals.

There are amazing views of Paris’ rooftops and a greenery courtyard from the top floor skylights. You can even enjoy part of the Eiffel Tower.

The Champs Elysees is one of the most famous streets in the world, so be prepared to come up against a fair few tourists, though you can sidestep the hordes pretty easily by exploring the side streets just off the main drag. For most, it’s a mandatory stop, if only to catch a glimpse of the monumental Arc de Triomphe which crowns the avenue and which was commissioned by Napoléon to celebrate the armies of empire. The imposing tree-lined boulevard is home to a mix of chain stores and luxury brands which, once passed, will take you down to La Concorde, where you’ll find some nice green areas, the French Government buildings, as well as the Grand Palais – a must-see for art and architecture fans alike. Don’t miss Rue Saint Honoré – the epitome of chic Parisian shopping which take you all the way to the hip independent bars and shops of Le Marais.
