Welcome to Studio Francois
A charming classic rooftop (Emily in Paris style) maids quarter studio with Eiffel Tower View for 1 - 2 guests from 195euro per night! Aircon, heating, fully self contained!
Here you will live in the middle of it ALL! Literally and Literary! In the writers intellectual heart of Paris, by the Seine river banks which is at the end of your street (a literal 20 second walk) where all the famous brudges are, to fulfill all your ‘Midnight in Paris’ wandering French fantasies!
Studio Francois is prestigiously located on a very fanous street - Rue Git-le-Coeur - which is a typical narrow and celebrated historically listed street in the 6th arrondissement (borders the 5eme), which is only 112 meters long and connects Rue Saint-André-des-Arts to the Seine River. The street's name translates to "Here lies my heart," coined by King Henri IV. Which is perfect for the central heart of Paris with the Eiffel to please you! This quintessential old-world Parisian romantic nook is a true artists dream; be inspired as you sleeping under the Paris stars.
Here you are also steps from the Notre Dame Cathedral, and in the thick of the St Germain-des-Pres. The luxembourg garden a 10 min walk away too.
The studio itself is an absolute charming lightfilled space, gorgeous golden sunlight filters through every afternoon until sunset, and with unique layout that adds dimension, and a sense of spaciousness to what would otherwise be another ordinary maids studio - CLICK HERE for this perfect Paris location (5mins walk to Jardin Luxembourg, 10 mins to the Louvre, 5 mins to the Latin Quarter)
The home has been intentionallt decorated by Franocis to exude an old-world regality about it - velvet cutrains, gold framed hisatoric artworks, religious artefacts, and together with the original wood beams, original tiling, wooden floor boards, original marble fire place, its an utterly rich and mysterious space - think red moulin-esque nights of wine sipping and walking along the seine river banks passing the antique book sellers, at the very end of your street. The true ‘flaneur’ fantasy comes to life here.
