This is a Non-Smoking Apartment.
Our Palais du Luxembourg is a fabulous piece of the best of Art Deco Paris, preserved in one of its most exciting neighborhoods. From top to bottom, front to back, this flat has it all from the amenities you’d expect in a 5 star to beautiful design and décor. Epitomizing that seamless Parisian blend of top class and full comfort, Palais du Luxembourg is the place to stay if you expect luxury and ease.
The Apartment
Before entering the flat, you’ll notice that the street is typical of Paris – beautifully tree-lined and framed with that unmistakable architectural style. You’ll feel like a true Parisien returning to your flat in this distinctive building.
Once inside, you’ll be immediately struck by the rich colors and warm interpretation of the Art Deco style. The main room is decorated and set in order to maximize comfort and appeal including a sleeping sofa for that extra member of your party. With large windows, the room is bathed in that characteristic Parisian sunlight. That, along with the cheerful color scheme, the careful art selection and a touch modernity in the flat screen television, ensures that you’ll feel right at home.
The kitchen at Palais du Luxembourg is adjacent to the main room and separated creatively by an antique painted dressing divider. It is equipped with everything you’d need to make a delicious breakfast, a restorative lunch or a lovely dinner.
The bedroom is a continuation of the style set in the salon. Warm and cheery tones ensure total relaxation and comfort. Included in the bedroom is a wall-mounted television for those lazy mornings. The pot lights add sleek warmth to the subdued lighting here, where soothing sleep is the watchword.
The bathroom is fully equipped including a full sized bathtub allowing you to stretch out and soak away the miles of sightseeing in Paris. It is a well-designed, functional and bright room where full comfort is the aim.
Staying at Palais du Luxembourg is basking in the light of Paris. Make this your home in the City of Light and you’ll never want to leave.

The District
Located in the storied 5th arrondissement, Luxembourg Pantheon is literally surrounded by some of Paris’ most treasured sights. As evidenced by the name of the apartment, the famous Luxembourg Garden and Luxembourg Palace are directly across the street. Here, you can enjoy the outdoors, take a chair and read just as the Parisians do. Just around the corner to the east, you’ll find the Pantheon, consecrated ground in French culture. Almost every great Frenchman is buried in its vaults from Voltaire to Victor Hugo. The architecture of this structure is awe-inspiring.
A little further to the east is the rue Mouffetard where you can walk along the car-free cobblestone enjoying the market feel before stopping for a café at Place Contrescarpe, one of Ernest Hemingway’s former favorites.
Just off from rue Mouffetard is the outdoor market at Place Monge, only minutes from apartment. Here you will find the freshest fish, meats and vegetables as well as delicious cheeses, flowers and breads.
Walking a few blocks to the north along Boulevard St Michel, will take you right to the heart of the Latin Quarter. From here, you can choose whether you want to see the Notre Dame cathedral just in front of you, whether you want to walk along the Boulevard Saint-Germain to the west or whether you’d like to lose yourself in the aisles of the Latin Quarter.
One of the world’s greatest restaurants is also available to you at just a short distance to the north. La Tour d’Argent is world renown as the crème de la crème of French cuisine.
