The Area

Wonderful location halfway up the hill towards Montmartre and Sacre Coeur, this bright and pleasant Parisian 35m2 (370sq.ft) apartment has been recently renovated by it's architect-owner with all new furnishings and fittings.

Location

The Pigalle/Montmartre area is famous for its association with the many painters and artists who worked and dwelt there in the late 19th century. It has excellent food shops close by with weekend street food markets just 5 minutes walk away at Rue Lepic (around where the movie Amelie was filmed) and rue des Martyrs. It is a 10 minute walk to the famed Sacre Coeur church, just the best place to watch Parisian sunsets. The large department stores such as Galeries Lafayette and Printemps are close by with the major galleries easily accessible by Metro or bus. See us on a map.

We have made arrangements with a chauffeur service to provide transportation from the airport to our apartments.

You may book this service by going to our Special Services & Activities page.

On the left side of the page, close to the bottom, choose 'Car Transfer'.

This is a real 'Parisian', vibrant street, but once you get back home to the cosy apartment you'll find how quiet and peaceful living on top floor is.

We are on the 5th floor in a traditional apartment building with lift and security entrance.

The roof top balcony provides views over the Pigalle and the Montmartre area.

You can also enjoy sunset views to the Eiffel Tower.

Each day, the morning sun streams in through big open windows looking on to the internal courtyard.

This apartment is designed for a fully, comfortable urban living: comfortable sitting area with entertainment equipment, dining area with a table for up to four people.

There is a bookshelf beside the dining table which has a wonderful collection of reading material on Paris, France and more.

There are also some very good cookbooks should you wish to pick up some groceries at one of the street markets in the area and try creating your own gourmet dinner instead of sampling one of the many restaurants in the area.

This modern kitchen is fully equipped for almost any gastronomic task, including a stove top Italian espresso maker which you can use to make a cup for breakfast.

It also has a microwave, dishwasher and fridge.

For your convenience, we also have a combination washing machine/dryer.

We have cable television with a built in DVD player for your entertainment as well as a CD player with a collection of CDs.

If you travel with your computer, you can access the internet through our broadband unlimited connection.

The bedroom has a very large open closet for your luggage, clothes and new purchases.

You'll enjoy waking up in our queen sized bed with the sunshine streaming in to greet you.

One look out of the window when you away will make you think you are in a Parisian paradise with the beautiful view of Sacre Coeur and the Eiffel Tower.

You can enjoy the rare treat of sipping your coffee while overlooking the rooftops of the city.

To make it even more irresistible, try some delicious pastry from the boulangerie down the street (15 seconds walk!).

We've selected mostly original pictures to decorate the wall and insisted on hand made Asian rugs.

In addition, there are a few amusing finds picked at the famous Parisian flea markets.

There are large, sunny windows in all the rooms and the bathroom has a ceiling matte window, providing beautiful light with maximum privacy, and a controlled natural ventilation.

Amenities in the bathroom are: WC, bath, shower and heated towel rail.

The rare panoramic view from this Montmartre nest spans uninterruptedly from Sacre Cœur in the north, the horizon in the east and, finally, the overwhelming southern view of Paris seen from your breakfast table.

Above the rooftops of Montmartre you'll see the Notre Dame, the Odeon and much further.

The apartment is warm in winter and easily heated with the electric heaters supplied whilst the large opening windows boths sides provide through ventilation for summer cooling.
