HOME AT FIRST Paris — A Monumental Romance
Fall in Love with Home At First Paris —
Independent Apartment-based Travel
Explore the romantic City of Light via Home At First Paris independent apartment-based travel.
Paris has evolved for 2,300 years or so, expanding outward from the original sheltered village on two islands in the River Seine. Celts, Romans, Franks, French royals, English royals, French revolutionaries, Napoleon Bonaparte, French republicans, Nazis & Vichy French, and post-war modern parliamentarians from the socialist left to the reactionary right have made Paris their place of power.
Revolutionary ideas both influenced and challenged Parisian power politics. In its universities, in its streets, Paris’s intellectual elite found the proper conditions for experiments in art, architecture, cuisine, education, fashion, literature, philosophy, politics, science, and theater.
Revolutionary forces shaped the medieval city into the romantic Paris we love to explore: a city of monuments, grand boulevards, incomparable art museums, parks, squares, & gardens inviting pauses and picnics, and warrens of alleys lined with boutiques, cafés, and galleries.
The River Seine dominates the city’s geography. Its arched course bisects Paris into two distinct halves: the Right Bank and the Left Bank. The halves are fragmented into individual arrondissements (districts) comprised of unique neighborhoods. Each neighborhood has its own character, history, attractions, surprises, and charms. Each invites exploration. Each rewards discovery.

Home At First’s Paris Independent Travel: Locations & Lodgings
Notre Dame Cathedral, viewed from the rooftop terrace of a Home At First apartment in the Latin Quarter of Paris. Probably the world’s ultimate example of 12th century Gothic architecture, Notre Dame lords over the Île de la Cité, one of two islands in the River Seine that have been inhabited since pre-history.
Heroically re-built over the five years following the catastrophic fire of April, 2019, the resplendent cathedral has resumed its importance as the traditional center of France: culturally, historically, even geographically. Visiting Notre Dame requires only a 5-to-30-minute walk or short métro ride from most of Home At First Paris apartments.
APARTMENT LOCATIONS: Home At First’s independent apartment-based travel offers vacation apartments of various sizes (studios, 1-, 2-, and 3-bedroom apartment) and capacities (sleeping & feeding up to 6 persons).
Apartments are located throughout central Paris on both sides of the River Seine. Wherever located, our accommodations feature nearby transportation, services, activities, stores, and restaurants, making it easy and convenient to shop and eat locally.
Neighborhoods: Our Paris apartments are located in safe, prosperous neighborhoods. All are within short walking distance to métro, bus, and, sometimes, RER stations. They make superb bases for exploring Paris.
Because of their centrality, each of our apartments is likely near at least one noted Parisian landmark. Your Paris apartment provides a refuge from the noise and bustle of the city. Each provides much more space than a hotel room and a made-to-order kitchen with a table waiting.
Arrondissements: Home At First offers Paris vacation apartments on both the Left Bank and the Right Bank. They are located in many of the 20 arrondissements (districts) of central Paris, including (but not limited to) numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 11, & 18. See our Paris map, below.
GETTING AROUND PARIS: Driving and parking in Paris can be daunting challenges. We recommend guests use taxis & Über, buses, and the métro (Paris’s subway). As part of their full package, guests receive a Paris transpass valid on the métro, buses, RER trains, and the funicular up Montmartre for the length of their stay.
While public transportation makes getting around the city easy, most visitors find Paris very walkable. As temporary Paris residents, Home At First guests discover the romance of Paris strolling through its unique, historic neighborhoods. Regardless whether by métro, bus, Über, taxi, or on foot, you will love exploring Paris independently from your quality vacation apartment.
