Last weekend my Italian and I took a staycation in Paris, crossing the river from rive droite’s trendy 3rd to rive gauche’s chic 7th arrondissement. Why not vacation in your own city? My home was one of Paris Perfect‘s luxurious apartments, and my neighbor was none other than Madame Eiffel herself. Right away I felt welcomed.
Needless to say, I couldn’t stop staring at the iron lady. Whether I sat on the balcony, lay in bed, or sank into a warm bath, there she was. I daresay the Chambertin apartment has quite the view, not to mention charm.
What I quickly learned is that Paris Perfect excels in hospitality and services. A few other guests and I took a traditional French cooking class at the glamorous Margaux apartment, learning to make gougère among other specialties, our meal ending with saffron cream and a lesson in champagne and wine pairing. Parfait!
I was sorry to leave this new home, but alas, every holiday has to come to an end, even one in your own city.
How beautiful! Staycations are wonderful, particularly if you have an amazing view like that! Thanks for sharing x
It was magical watching Lady Eiffel sparkling (from the bathtub)!
Wow, beautiful.
Can you tell me where to find one of the totes with the arrondissement #’s.
Thank you,
Pat
