The French doors open on to a small balcony for people watching or an early morning pain au chocolate and espresso. The separate dining room seats four and also has doors opening on to a small balcony. The kitchen is modest in size but sufficiently equipped and includes a fridge/freezer, oven, stove and microwave. The cozy bedroom with double bed is a welcomed sanctuary after a busy day of sightseeing. A small balcony is accessible through the French doors. The luxurious marble bathroom has two windows for ambient light and is outfitted with two sinks and a shower. With available concierge service, Apartment de Londres offers a classy alternative for a couple desiring more than just a hotel room for their stay in Paris.
The 9th Arrondisement, or Quartier de l'Opera, is easily overlooked but offers the visitor to Paris a glimpse into one of the city's more livelier periods. The neighborhood has been celebrated in song and literature for the numerous music halls that brought laughter and gaiety to the city during hard times. Today, the Place Pigalle (or infamous "Pig Alley" during WWII) houses many nightclubs and nearby, the famous cancan dancers of the Folies Bergere. For those seeking distractions of a different sort, a visit to the nearby Department Store district might be more appealing. Behind the Opera Garnier you will find the larger department stores of Galeries Lafayette and Au Printemps.
