Ile St. Louis - perhaps the most special spot in the most special city in the world - is only six blocks long and two blocks wide. This quaint little island, with no subway stop, is an escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. Three metro lines however, can easily be reached by crossing the appropriate bridge to the Left or Right Banks. You'll be one of a community of about 6,000 surrounded by 16th and 17th century mansions, with their beautiful stone-paved courtyards; fashionable shops, and terrific restaurants.

The most famous ice cream shop in Paris, Berthillon, is a few seconds away and the Seine River is at your doorstep! Each time you cross the Pont de la Tournelle, "on the way to the continent," as the locals like to say, you'll have a breathtaking view of Notre Dame that will leave you dazzled. The Latin Quarter on the Left Bank, and the Marais on the Right Bank, are just short strolls away. This is truly the heart of Paris!

Stop for a moment to admire the stunning Gothic architecture of Notre-Dame cathedral. Then wander onto the islands of "Ile de la Cité" and "Ile Saint-Louis". Right next to the colorful market of the Place Maubert and the boulevard Saint-Germain, steps away the Sorbonne University, Luxembourg Gardens and the open-air market of the rue Mouffetard: Yours for those wishing to visit much of historic Paris on foot, this apartment is ideal!
