Short term furnished vacation rental, three bedroom apartment with 3 bathrooms, that sleeps six guests in Ile de la Cite in arrondissement 4, in Paris, France.

APARTMENT DESCRIPTION

The apartment takes up the entire 3rd floor of a grand, historic building right on the bank of the Seine. From its windows and the large balcony you have an unobstructed view across the river to the Place St Michel into the heart of the Latin Quarter. Many of the main historic and cultural sites and monuments are close by: the Palais de Justice and the Conciergerie are just around the corner, the Louvre and the theatres at Chatelet are only a short walk away and the vibrant Left Bank area is right across the bridge outside the front door. Metro and RER stations are a block away. Access to the apartment is controlled by secure coded entry to the internal courtyard. The historic hallway leads to a brand-new elevator and a separate stairway.

Four tall double-glazed French window doors at the front of the building open onto a narrow balcony that extends the full-width of the front windows. The view is to the South directly over the Seine and the St Michel bridge, with barges and tourist boats passing by most of the year. The quiet street below carries little traffic. The large and impressive living room has very high ceilings, the original marble fireplace and classic, comfortable furnishings. The two double French window doors open onto the balcony.

The large dining room also has a high ornamental ceiling and a tall window. The large dining room table can seat up to eight persons. The apartment is equipped with a LCD flat screen television, 150 channel cable TV (including CNN and BBC), DVD, HiFi equipment with MP3 connectivity and Internet high speed broadband WiFi and Ethernet connection.

The two largest bedrooms are reached through double doors located on each side of the living room. The main and second bedrooms overlook the river and are located on each side of the living room. The third bedroom is located behind the main bedroom with an en-suite bathroom connecting the two bedrooms, although the doors can be shut so only those in the main bedroom use this bathroom.

The third bedroom is at the rear of the apartment with a tall double window onto the courtyard. It has a single bed which can be converted to two singles or a double bed.

The kitchen and family bathroom (with tub and washer/dryer) are located down a corridor, in a separate part of the apartment, off to the right as you enter through the main doors of the apartment. The kitchen is fully equipped with a four burner gas stove and oven, fridge, freezer, double sink and dishwasher.
