Spread across three creatively modular levels, the Art Space is a unique luxury space in the heart of the city. Located in Paris's vibrant 2nd arrondissement, the property is perfectly situated in a private plant-filled courtyard, basking in a haven of calm. Natural light floods into the Art Space from high ceilings and clerestory windows, including a dramatic floor to roof-top cathedral window, creating an atmosphere that is as luminous as it is luxurious.
Initially built in the 1870s, this 300m2 loft space was renovated from an abandoned printing house used by La Résistance to print newspapers and flyers during WWII. Now, the Art Space has been transformed into a unique destination, providing your own private slice of an authentic and refined Paris, a stylish sanctuary designed to welcome up to eight guests.
As you enter through the foyer, you're greeted by dramatic volumes, within which a spacious open-plan living and dining area boast a sleek design and contemporary décor. A cinema screen hidden behind the transversal Eiffel beam allows movie viewing in style. The fully-equipped kitchen is perfectly suited for serving up everything from chic canapés to gourmet meals. Also located on the ground level is a bedroom with a shower room and toilet conveniently opposite. Meanwhile, accessed via a glass-top staircase, the lower floor offers the opportunity to work out in the private gym and rejuvenate in the relaxation room using the hydro-jet massage shower and sauna. Accessed via the same glass-top staircase is the 4th modular Queen bedroom.
Climb the stairs to the upper level to reveal an elegant mezzanine lounge replete with tasteful furnishings. This floor, with its architectural floating passageways, offers a spectacular perspective of the Loft! This upper level also hosts two bedrooms, including the master bedroom with en suite bathroom including a sunken bath and rain shower, & a second bedroom with a half bathroom opposite. A balcony fitted with patio furniture and two bistro tables stretches along this level and can be accessed by both bedrooms.
Resonating with the property name 'Art Space', two original, story-telling artist murals underline the property's history and artistic ambience, bringing warmth and character to the Loft. One decorates the main Loft living room wall rendering tribute to the Resistance and telling the story of the printing house. Colourful and vibrant, the second accentuates the cosy cocktail ambience created on the upper level with Pascal Mourge's designer lounge chairs.
For your own light-filled oasis in the thick of the French capital, the Art Space provides for your every desire, and it does so in style. What's more, you can arrange an array of upmarket services from your very own private chef or wine sommelier to guided city tours of iconic landmarks, galleries, museums. If you wish to explore further afield, a high-end range of helicopter tours can be arranged to visit Versailles, the D-Day Landing Beaches in Normandy or you can even enjoy a champagne lunch in Reims.
A unique property in the heart of Paris, the Art Space offers luxurious space and welcoming accommodation for couples, families and groups of friends or colleagues.

The neighbourhood's pulsating yet charming energy is ideally suited for an authentic Parisian experience.

Take a stroll to the stunning new Rooftop Bar at the Madame Reve restaurant built above the Louvre Post-Office block and Pinaud's newly renovated Bourse de Commerce - an incredible modern art museum, both at the doorstep of the Loft. The nearby newly renovated Samaritaine department store also offers a unique luxury shopping and gastronomic experience in its incredible architectural spaces.
When the sun sets and cafes spill onto the streets, the neighbourhood provides ample opportunities to savour a glass of wine and watch Paris's peculiar habit of blossoming at night.

Region
Fall in love with la ville lumière during your time in Paris, one of the most famous capital cities in the world.
Everyone has different reasons for visiting this beautiful city. Perhaps you hope to visit some of Paris’ fine museums and art galleries, climb the Eiffel Tower or shop to your hearts content along the iconic boulevards. You may prefer to simply wander around the city parks, enjoy leisurely lunches on the left bank before strolling across Pont Neuf to admire the grandeur of the Louvre.
Discover the many charming neighbourhoods of Paris following the footsteps of famous writers, artists and philosophers. Start off on the right bank in Le Marais, the Jewish quarter, with its boutiques, old bakeries and kiosks selling delicious falafel (expect a queue!) – take a guided walking tour to learn all about this neighbourhood’s heritage. On the other side of the river, soak up the student ambience of the Latin Quarter, home to La Sorbonne, and sip coffee on a café terrace on Boulevard Saint-Germain for a truly iconic Parisian experience.
Meanwhile, a walk around Jardin du Luxembourg is a must, especially for families who will adore the little boats by the fountain, donkey rides, carrousel and a popular new playground (with an entry fee). Pack a picnic and sit on a bench beneath the shady trees as you people watch Parisians and tourists alike making the most of this atmospheric park.
Keen shoppers will appreciate the likes of Galeries Lafayette as well as the luxury stores of the Champs-Elysées. If you are visiting Le Centre Pompidou, you could also walk up to the vast Forum des Halles for recognisable brands in central Paris. Not forgetting the many markets from the twice-weekly Bastille Market selling delicious food to the sprawling weekend flea market at Marché aux Puces de St-Ouen that dates back to the late 19th century.
Embrace the romantic ambience of Paris when you walk by the river on La Rive Droite with beautiful views as you pass Île Saint-Louis and Île de la Cité. It’s especially lovely as evening nears with vibrant bars by the riverside whilst children will love the play areas and climbing walls as you stroll. Look out for the Eiffel Tower in the far distance which sparkles so magically on the hour from dusk.
Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesWithin a short distance of Art Space are ample options for family-friendly fun and activities. The enchanting Jardin des Tuileries offers expansive green spaces, playgrounds, and picturesque ponds – the perfect setting for a family picnic.
The Centre Pompidou also provides numerous activities for children and families, including the "Galerie des enfants" (Kids Gallery) and the "Atelier des enfants" (Kids Studio). Workshop exhibitions and family events are also regular features on the Centre Pompidou's calendar. Make sure to confirm exhibitions and opening hours prior to your departure.
In nearby Marais, the Musée en Herbe offers its youngest visitors the chance to discover and create art through fun, interactive exhibits. The museum is specifically designed with children in mind and also features a selection of workshops on everything from hand painting to lessons in sculpture and drawing.
For an enjoyable and unique experience, check out the Louvre's Treasure Hunt, which turns the famous museum's art history into a thrilling quest for the young ones.

Amazing Property and Host in Fabulous Location!
We enjoyed our month staying in Julie's gorgeous Arty Space and it was beyond fabulous. We had different groups of friends coming for a week at a time and every guest was blown away by the beauty of the flat and wonderful location.
As an introvert, I was worried folks would be on top of each other but there was ample room for everyone to have their own space when needed and plenty of room for all 8 of us to gather together comfortably.
Julie was the most fabulous host we have ever experienced. Once she learned our guest rotation, she offered to have her cleaning crew come in to change sheets and linens which was great. Anytime I had a question including the nearest Post Office, she responded right away. My husband wanted to join a gym and she recommended the one across the street which was great for him. She was very attentive to our needs and communication was great. She arranged for Chef Olivier to cook a few fabulous meals at the flat which was wonderful. Highly recommend.
The flat location was on a quiet street with fabulous restaurants just a 5 minute walk away. We had the best of all worlds. Easy walk to the Monoprix, bakeries, cheese shops, etc. Easy walk to the sights as well as multiple metro stops.
Checking in was easy, Julie was waiting for us at the flat and went over the appliances, lights and movie screen with us. She provided great directions from Gare de Lyon and to the location. Awesome host and flat, can't recommend highly enough! -
What a trip!
We had an incredible stay at Art Space a couple of weeks ago - to the point where we keep saying, was that a dream?! My husband and I traveled to Paris with two other couples from different parts of the US and we were looking for a place with enough space where we didn’t feel like we were on top of each other. The Art Space was perfect. It was quiet, but in the heart of everything, and was comfortable while having more than enough room for all of us. The neighborhood was the cherry on top, with more cafes and shops than you can count, just a block away. We joked that we could have stayed in our neighborhood and never left. Julie was an incredible host from the start. Her communication was superb and she went the extra mile to make sure we were comfortable and had what we needed. We really hope to go back some day!

Our family of 7 loved this place!
Our family of 7 loved this place! We have kids ages 8 to 17 and it was absolutely perfect. From the beds, bathrooms and kitchen, we had everything we needed for a week long stay in Paris.
Julie - the host/owner - is so kind and was quick to respond to all of our questions. She has a concierge team that set us up with great day trips and even a private chef that doubled as a cooking class for our family.
The location itself is a standout feature. We were able to immerse ourselves in the authentic Parisian lifestyle as it is just one block away from the Rue Montorgueil which is a charming pedestrian street filled with bistros, pastry shops, fresh fruit stands and cool boutiques. It is walkable to The Louvre and centrally located to make it easy to catch an Uber to anywhere in Paris. Our teens loved being able to walk around the neighborhood in between our planned adventures. It is a very safe and chic place to be! We will definitely be back! -
Excellent
The apartment was fantastic!

It felt like a home in Paris.
This was the perfect location for my family for an 11 day stay in Paris! It more than adequately accommodated the seven of us. My mom has Parkinson’s so there was a perfect room on the first floor for her and her husband. We had two teenagers, both 16 years old, 22-year-old son and me and my husband. The large open floor plan plus four bedrooms provided plenty of space for the seven of us. Location was amazing, about two blocks from a wonderful street with markets and cafés. We enjoy walking and the location was about a 15 minute walk to the Louvre. We also walked to the Seine, Saint-Germain-des-Prés and Latin Quarter. On a separate day, we walked to Palace Garnier. My mom was able to do the walk to the Louvre. The property was extremely clean and had at least two cleaning services while we were there. Kitchen was very well stocked with coffee and for cooking. We even had chef Oliver come cook for us one evening, which was amazing! Julie and her family who offer the property were so kind and helpful with planning some of our experiences, we did a day trip to London and another to Mont St. Michel. I would definitely stay here again. It felt like a home in Paris.

Great stay in Paris
It's not easy to find a place for our family of five in Paris. This space was wonderful. We each had not only our own sleeping space, but to have hang out space and a large stocked kitchen, a place to sit together for dinner, having a washer and dryer, etc. The neighborhood felt safe at any hour. The food options nearby on Rue Montorgueil were amazing.
Julie was very easy to communicate with and was very attentive. The building and its history are incredible. So fun and charming and quiet.
Would happily stay again. -
Perfect location, lovely apartment.
It is precisely as described and pictured. The location is ideal, with rue Montorgueil, and it’s markets being less than two blocks away. The attention to style is impressive. Julie was a wonderful host. Would stay again.

Plenty of Space for A Large Group
Lovely stay at The Loft. We were a group of 7 (including two small children) traveling to visit family so specifically looking for a space that would allow us to stretch out as well as room to host family. The Art Space absolutely delivered on space, we never felt like we didn’t have enough room to take time to ourselves or host additional family which is a luxury in most French apartments. The space was clean, provided all the amenities expected and thoughtfully laid out. Julie was an exceptional host who was always available and had many recommendations. Although we did not take advantage, she offered concierge services such as transportation and private chef catered meals which was appreciated. As a parent of a small child (10 months at the time) I will say some aspects of the home were a little difficult to navigate (staircases and varying levels of the floor such as stepping up to get into kitchen) and do not think I would stay again with children of that age however this had nothing to do with the home itself as it was wonderful. We would absolutely stay again (especially now that the kids are older) and highly recommend Julie and her property.

Magnificent weekend in Paris with family and friends
With my wife, our 15 year old daughter and four other teenagers we spent a wonderful long weekend at Art Space, the location is perfect, in a lively and central area, and the house is unique, very well equipped and full of charm. To recommend!
-
Fabulous
Art Space is gorgeous; located in a part of Paris we’ve not stayed at in the past but great location for restaurants and amenities; able to get food delivery and Uber readily; apartment is as pictured and listed - charming and beautiful; fantastic neighborhood Julie could not have been more helpful, responsive and welcoming; beautiful flowers, fruit, champagne to greet; she can assist with any accommodations you may desire while staying in Paris I would highly recommend Art Space for a visit to Paris and hope I can stay again in the future Thank you so much for your hospitality.

Perfect location in Paris.
Perfect location in Paris. Unique design. Great for parties and gathering. Best landlord.
This is like a private home in the very heart of Paris. and 3000 sq feet !! No need for car, all is walking distance, from monuments to best restaurants etc.. The owner is very accommodating and will make you feel like n your own home. Only good things to say about this place.
Just hope you can find availability. -
Exceptional
Simply could not be better. The pictures are utterly accurate. The place is marvelous. Highly, highly recommend it.

Loved this modern yet historical treasure in the heart of Paris
Loved this modern yet historical treasure in the heart of Paris. Stay was very nice in the perfect location. Art Space is on a quiet street but just down each end of the street, many cafes and shops
with a lively atmosphere. It was spacious and beautiful with an old world feel and modern flare— if you’re into history but love the modern look. Host was incredible, helped with any questions the entire stay! Louvre/Siene River is a 10 min. walk with many shops and restaurants on the way. Eiffel Tower/ Arc de Triumph is about a 25 min. drive. Definitely would stay here again if I get the chance! -
Amazing property!!!
We absolutely loved our stay in this extraordinary, beautiful, historical apartment. If you have the opportunity to stay here, TAKE IT!! It was comfortable, clean, and within easy walking distance to many restaurants. Easy to communicate with the property owner. Thanks Julie.
-
Amazing stay in a lovely neighborhood
I traveled to Paris with a group of friends, including one infant and stayed at Art Space. We had an amazing stay and Julie was very responsive in making sure we had everything we needed. The beds were quite comfortable and we had plenty of space. Would highly recommend this loft for a big group!
-
Best stay!
We loved our stay at the Art Space - the location is amazing and the property owner Julie is a great host. We stayed with 7 people and the space for perfect for it. Hope to come back soon!
-
Wonderful Neighborhood!
Julie made everything as convenient and as easy as possibly. She took care of every single thing we needed instantly. The apartment is large and airy with large bathrooms and a great kitchen and dining area. Best of all, the location and neighborhood. It is on a very quiet street 2 blocks from a walking street that has every shop you could ever want on it. And literally next door was the best coffee we found in Paris. Because if the location we could walk everywhere or use the subway which we did. We spent a month at Art Space and loved it. Perfect for kids who need space.
