⭐ This is not just a charming exposed stone wall.
A genuine surviving section of the medieval city wall built under King Philippe Auguste around 1200 forms part of this studio and is officially protected as a French Monument historique.
Sleep beside more than eight centuries of Parisian history, surrounded by ancient stone and timber beams, then step outside onto your own private terrace framed by a lush green wall, tucked away in the heart of the Latin Quarter.
THE SPACE
Most people come to Paris hoping to feel its history. Here, you actually sleep beside it.
A protected fragment of Philippe Auguste's medieval city wall is incorporated directly into the apartment. Nearby once stood the former Porte Bordet, one of the gateways through the fortifications of medieval Paris.
Ancient stone and dark timber beams meet a carefully renovated contemporary interior, creating a space with a character that could only belong to Paris.
Set back from the street and reached by a short staircase, the studio opens directly onto its own private terrace. Surrounded by a lush green backdrop and hidden from the street, it feels like a small outdoor room in the middle of the city.
Morning coffee outside. A quiet afternoon with a book. A glass of wine at the end of the day.
The studio is ideal for a couple or solo traveler. A third guest can sleep on the convertible sofa, which is fitted with a proper mattress rather than a simple fold-out cushion.
