If you are going to Paris, the best place to stay is not a hotel, but a "Special Apartment". For the same price as an average hotel room,  at Special Apartments, you can choose among a beautiful and unique selection of Parisian rental apartments: studios, one, two and three bedroom apartments, with accommodation for up to six people. All of the short-term rental apartments are centrally located in the best areas of Paris.

I stayed for 2 nights at the apartment #002 located in Arts-et-Métiers a two minute walk from Metro station and five minutes away from Centre Pompidou. It was a perfect stay in a gorgeous, spacious, modern and quiet apartment. As soon as you step in you feel you want to move in for ever. It’s exactly what you need to make your stay in Paris as comfortable and easy as possible. My apartment had a big living room with huge, comfy sofas where I could lay for hours flicking through the art books displayed on the table. The bedroom is like a little alcove where you want to spend whole days because the bed is so cosy. Even though you are in an old building, every thing is very functional, WiFi, big shower, washing machine, kitchen with all facilities. And the exciting part is that all the apartments are completely unique and furnished differently. I can’t wait to go back to Paris and stay at a Special Apartment again.
