About the location


Live like a local. Away from the crowds yet easy access to all. Fabulous Parc Montsouris just around the corner! Plus… large balcony with open views over the city including views of Montmartre’s Sacre Coeur and the top of the Eiffel Tower!! Watch it sparkle at night with a glass of champagne 🥂 on your private balcony.

Large supermarket and a boulangerie (bakery) right downstairs. Pharmacy one block away. Bus stops one block away take you to Notre Dame and more in 15-20 minutes or enjoy a hardy walk. If you want a friendly (bilingual staff), comfort food meal available all day (unusual in France) there’s a great, affordable place about 6 minutes walk. There are a couple of pizza places close, a few blocks in the other direction a friendly brasserie (bar/restaurant) with all the basics plus fresh oysters! Of course , there are French restaurants and also a number of Asian. Really every type of food is available .

Getting to my home

Orly airport is Paris’ smaller and more “user friendly” airport. It’s only 15 minute drive from us and also accessible by bus and train. Right outside our building you can catch a regional train, a tram or multiple buses.

Nearest airport

CDG and ORY. Orly is closest and smaller/easier to navigate. Fastest option is taxi (regulated price) or Uber. Can also take train into Paris.

Getting around

Walking, buses, tram and train.
