The location of this 3 bedroom/2 bathroom apartment on the Right Bank of Paris could not be more central. Indeed, it is just steps away from the Opéra Garnier, the Palais Royal and its gardens, the Louvre Museum, and the Place Vendôme. Enjoy a short stroll to Parisian departments stores Galerie Lafayette and Printemps on boulevard Haussmann for fabulous Paris fashion, or stock up on fresh produce and delicious cheese at the famous Marché de Montorgueuil – both just short walks from your flat. More on the Opera Palais Royal district: Home to the famous Comédie Française and many local theaters, the neighborhood moves to the theater’s beat. Around the Rue St Augustin, bars and bistros crowded with locals become a performance unto themselves. At mid-day, finance professionals from the nearby banking district liven up the lunch scene. Enjoy impromptu classical music concerts the weekends on Place Colette in front of the Palais Royal. In this area, you will experience all of the facets of Parisian life: history, art, literature, music, gastronomy and shopping. The department stores Galeries Lafayette and Printemps are just ten minutes away. You are a two-minute walk to Drouant, the exquisite restaurant that hosts the Prix Goncourt, the famous French literary award, each year. Renoir, Rodin and other artists also gathered here. You are also just a five-minute walk to the lovely Palais Royal Garden, the Place des Victoires, the Place Vendome and just a ten-minute walk to the Louvre.
