Paris Apartment Rentals in France

In Paris you live in an apartment, like a Parisian, rather than in a hotel. The city is compact, built in a spiral of twenty arrondissements around the islands in the Seine, and nearly all of it is walkable if your shoes are good. Our nine apartments are in central neighbourhoods [CHECK which], one to four bedrooms, in the pale stone buildings that line the boulevards. You'll have a bakery round the corner. That's the point.

The 12 best things to do in Paris

Ranked by how often 14 travel guides and the city's tourist office recommend them, with the journey from our apartments on Place du Trocadéro checked on Google Maps.

The Eiffel Tower

Finished in 1889 for the World's Fair, the wrought-iron tower stands 330 metres to its tip. Stairs climb to the second floor, while only a lift reaches the top. After dark it sparkles for five minutes at the start of every hour, and the Trocadéro across the river gives a clear view.

Look up at the station clock in the main hall. It is closed on Mondays and open until 9.45pm on Thursdays.

Montmartre and the Sacré-Cœur

The hill rises to 130 metres in the 18th arrondissement and is crowned by the Sacré-Cœur, built in white travertine between 1875 and 1914. A funicular saves the 222 steps of Rue Foyatier. Come early or late in the day, then wander past the vineyard on Rue Saint-Vincent to Place du Tertre.

Notre-Dame Cathedral

Begun in 1163, the cathedral on the Île de la Cité reopened in December 2024 after the 2019 fire. Entry is free, and a time slot taken online shortens the wait. The towers are a separate timed ticket, climbed by stairs only, and the flying buttresses show clearly from the east end.

A walk along the Seine

The banks from the Pont de Sully to the Pont d'Iéna have been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1991. The lower quays of the Parc Rives de Seine are closed to cars, so you can walk from the Musée d'Orsay to the Pont de l'Alma, or see the same stretch from a river boat.

Sainte-Chapelle

Louis IX built this chapel inside his palace on the Île de la Cité to hold the Crown of Thorns, and it was consecrated in 1248. The upper chapel has fifteen stained-glass windows with 1,113 scenes from the Bible. Entry is by timed ticket, so buy ahead, and come on a bright day.

The Arc de Triomphe

Napoleon ordered the arch after Austerlitz in 1806 and it was finished in 1836, with twelve avenues radiating from the square around it. Do not cross the traffic on foot, use the underpass from the Champs-Élysées. A climb of 284 steps leads to the roof terrace and a long view down the avenue.

The Luxembourg Gardens

Marie de' Medici laid out these 23 hectares in 1612 beside her palace, now the seat of the French Senate. Children sail model boats on the octagonal Grand Bassin, and the Medici Fountain sits in a shaded grotto nearby. The gates open in the morning and close at dusk, so times change with the season.

Père Lachaise Cemetery

Opened in 1804, the cemetery covers 44 hectares of lanes and tombs on a hillside in the 20th arrondissement. Chopin, Oscar Wilde, Édith Piaf, Marcel Proust and Jim Morrison are buried here. Enter by the main gate on Boulevard de Ménilmontant and plan a route first, as the paths are steep and easy to lose.

The Palais Garnier

Charles Garnier's opera house opened in 1875 on Place de l'Opéra. By day you can walk up the white marble Grand Staircase into the gilded Grand Foyer, and see Chagall's 1964 ceiling when the auditorium is not in rehearsal. To see the house as intended, come for an evening ballet or opera.

The Latin Quarter and the Panthéon

The Panthéon was built between 1758 and 1790 as a church for Saint Genevieve and now holds the tombs of Voltaire, Victor Hugo and Marie Curie in its crypt. Léon Foucault demonstrated his pendulum here in 1851. Afterwards, walk down the lanes of the Latin Quarter towards the Seine.

Life in Paris

A morning along the Seine

Walk to the river early, when the delivery vans are still out and the quays are almost empty. The booksellers along the parapets are only starting to unlock their green boxes. From the middle of a bridge you can see Notre-Dame one way and, on the right bridge, the top of the Eiffel Tower the other. A jogger goes past. Then a barge. Someone with a baguette, already eating the end.

The museums

Some guests barely leave the museums all week. At the Louvre, pick one wing. You won't see it all, and nobody does. The Musée d'Orsay is the old railway station by the river, with the big clock, and that's where you'll find the Impressionists. We often like the lesser-known places more. A sculptor's house with his garden still behind it. A private collection in an old mansion. Big museums often ask you to buy timed tickets in advance.

Neighbourhood life

What makes an apartment worth it is the street outside. Nearly every neighbourhood has a food market a couple of mornings a week, cheese, fish, flowers, roast chicken, and a bakery where the queue tells you it's good. The café on the corner is where you'll read the paper and watch people. By day three the waiter might nod at you. After that you're not quite a visitor any more.

Paris by season

Spring is the one everyone pictures, chestnut trees in flower and every terrace full. Summer is warm and busy, though in August a lot of Parisians leave and some independent shops close for weeks. Autumn brings mild days and new shows at the galleries. In winter it's grey and dark early, but quiet. The boulevards have their Christmas lights up and you can actually see the paintings.

When to go

Go in spring or early autumn if you can. Summer's warm and crowded, but in August a lot of Paris goes away. Winter is grey, and the museums are calmer.

Speak to our team

Before you go

What guests ask us most before a stay in Paris.

Which neighbourhoods are the apartments in?

They're central [CHECK, Eric to confirm which arrondissements we name]. Each listing shows the area, and the areas differ a lot. One street might be all old shopfronts and galleries. Two streets over it's a wide boulevard with buses, or a quiet square where someone's walking a dog. Say how you like to spend a day, and we'll match you to the right streets.

How do we get from the airports?

From Charles de Gaulle, the RER B train gets you into the centre in around 35 minutes. A taxi is around 45 minutes to an hour, longer at rush hour. Orly is closer, around 30 to 40 minutes by taxi, with a light metro link to the RER. Coming in on the train, to Gare du Nord or Gare de Lyon, it's a quick taxi to the central apartments.

Do the buildings have lifts?

Many do, but not all, and in older Paris buildings the lifts can be very narrow, often just enough for two people and a suitcase. We can tell you whether there's a lift and which floor the apartment is on. If stairs are a problem for anyone in your group, tell us and we'll stick to apartments with a lift or a low floor.

Are the apartments suitable for children?

Most are, with some thought. Paris apartments can have steep stairs, tall windows and balconies, so it's worth checking the layout for very young children. The city itself is good for families: parks with carousels and puppet shows, the river, endless pastries. Let us know the children's ages and we'll point you to the apartments that work.

When should we visit?

We'd say late spring or September, when the weather is mild and the terraces are full. Summer is warm and busy, and August is quieter than you'd expect as many Parisians go away. Winter is cold and grey, but museums are calmer and the Christmas lights are lovely. Fashion weeks and big trade fairs make some dates tight.

Planning a stay in Paris?

Tell us your dates and who's coming, and how you like to spend a day in a city. We'll come back with apartments that fit.
