The Quai des Grands Augustins Residence
Perks for the Parents
A compact apartment in the heart of the 6th arrondissement, perfectly placed to explore the city from the riverside. It’s a few minutes’ walk from the popular streets of Saint Sulpice, or a beautiful stroll over the River Seine to the Louvre (10 minutes on foot) or Notre Dame. Despite the compact set-up here, you’ll be surprised to find your very own private courtyard - a rarity in central Paris - so you can enjoy your morning croissant in this beautifully secluded spot.
Why Kids Love it
While there are no toys and books here for little ones, it’s ideal for parents with a baby or small child that loves to share with mom and dad. It’s 10 minutes’ walk from the playground and the open spaces at the Louvre, or 10 minutes south to visit the popular Luxembourg Gardens, which has a puppet theater, boating lake and playground.
Things to Know
No pets, parties or smoking.The lead guest must be at least 25 years old. All guests will receive a rental agreement prior to their stay which you are required to sign and submit. The apartment is situated on the ground floor of the building, but there are internal stairs in the apartment. Guests with allergies should be aware that a dog usually lives here, but will not be present during guest stays. Pets may be welcome on request. If you're traveling with your own canine companion, they'll be welcome too. The mezzanine level has very low ceilings not designed for walking around in - it’s just a sleeping space.
About the Location
Just footsteps from the banks of the Seine and Luxembourg gardens, this apartment is surrounded by the historic streets of central Paris. It’s a 2-minute walk to Saint-Michel Notre-Dame station (for national trails and metro services) and the historic Pont Saint-Michel bridge, which takes you over to the famous Notre Dame cathedral. The airport is around 45 minutes by car or train.

The apartment has 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom. There’s a contemporary open plan living space with a large corner sofa, coffee table TV and bookshelf. This space includes an open kitchen with a breakfast bar, as well as doors leading out to the courtyard garden. The mezzanine level has a double bed and an additional double mattress can be placed in this room to sleep 4. The bathroom has a walk-in shower, there is no bathtub.
Style Notes
Simple and scandi. The hosts have used clean, neutral colors to decorate the space, which has an all-white palette and warm natural wooden tones, inspired by simple Scandinavian styles. We love the clear glass breakfast bar stools, the contemporary sleek staircase and the clever integrated storage.
