Your hosts area
For the experts, this area is known as the "New Athens" due to the renewed interest for Greece at the end of the 18th century, when the noble constructions of the area have been inspired by its classicism. 

But, moreover, quite a number of artists decided to live in this new smart place: Gericault, Vernet, George Sand, Chopin, Degas, Renoir and many other who contributed towards making Paris the capital of arts in the 19th century.

It must be said that they were very close to the Moulin Rouge, the Moulin de La Galette, the Cabaret Chat Noir, where all the middle class Parisians love to come to have fun. You will often see inscriptions on the walls stating that such or such artist lived there. 

At the same time quiet and lively, between Montmartre and Opera, the area is thus very central and you will rapidly reach by foot the following attractions:

The apartment
Built on one of the hills which led to Montmartre, the building is from the time of Louis Philippe. It has been built in the style of the area, with its porch with neo-classic arcades which recall that we are in the heart of the New Athens area.

The apartment opens its windows on a lovely internal paved yard full of trees, which lets in the sun light while offering complete quietness

Helene bought this apartment in 2006 and had it completely renovated.
 
As she is from a family of antique dealers, her taste naturally leans towards things which have a history, but she also likes modern and contemporary pieces too.

Helene is in her forties. She was born in Normandy where she spent all her holidays on the beaches as a child. Her family moved to the south of France when she was 11 to live the country life.

After her studies in Toulouse, she spent one year in London and then came to Paris to study the history of art at the Sorbonne University. She worked in an art gallery presenting old drawings, then worked as the main coordinator for an antique exhibition in Paris. Now, she works as an interior designer. 

After spending 15 years in the Saint-Germain-des-Prés area, she decided in 2005 to move to the 9th district of Paris which she enjoys very much. 

Helene loves Paris, she thinks that it is a city full of surprises and unique although each area has its own atmosphere, population and soul.
The bathroom
The bathroom is to share with Helene. She will take out all her personal belongings so that you feel at ease and you will have priority use.

The bathroom is not very large (4 square meters), but all the necessities are there and Helene has used her flair for decorating to make this small space very pleasant. Stones collected on the beach of Deauville are displayed all along the bath,

It is equipped with a bath with a shower on the wall, a small wash-basin and toilets.

Bath products, bath towels and a hair-dryer are at your disposal.

Helene loves architecture and never stops admiring new creations of the architects, especially in her area.

Helene loves the museums and exhibitions, although her area is surrounded by theatres. She also loves opera and classical music and she regrets that the Garnier Opera does not offer more shows. The Opera is very close to her home.

Helene likes to share and learn, and also to transmit, this is why she decided to have a b&b at her home in 2009. She will be able to give you good advice for your visits.

Helene speaks good English
- The "rue des Martyrs", which offers lots of shops of quality for food (cheese shops, pastry shops, delicatessen.) as well as many small and lovely places to have lunch or dinner.

- Gustave Toudouze square offers a pleasant choice as well for Indian, Italian restaurants; it looks like a small village square, very enjoyable under the trees during the summer.

- Rue Lepic, with many shops for food, the Moulin Rouge store and the café which became famous after the movie "Amélie Poulain", better known abroad as "Amelie of Montmartre".

- Rue des Abbesses: restaurants and many cafés such as: Un Zèbre à Montmartre, Le Sancerre and more.

Helene keeps a list of all the addresses that she recommends, and comments on each place including the comments made by her other  visitors.
Helene wishes to emphasise that if you do not ask for the addition of the living room for your own use, you should only have access to the bedroom, except when she invites you to the living room. You are not to spend time in the living room except for breakfast and on your way to and from the bedroom. 

In order that visitors experience quiet when they are only using the bedroom without living room, Helene asks you to leave the keys on a piece of furniture in the hall when you return home, so that she is aware you are present and avoids making noise.
The apartment is located on the fourth floor, without elevator, but Helene is always ready to help her visitors carry their bags when necessary.

Helene's bedroom is upstairs. From the hall, you will access the kitchen, the bathroom, the dining-living room and the internal staircase which led’s to Helene's bedroom.

You will have to cross the dining-living room to go to the guest room. 

When Helene decided to have such openness for the guest room, she wanted to offer a large and private space according to the visitors' wishes (service with an additional cost).
Helene has organized the bedroom with a "hairdresser corner" with two lamps, a mirror and a stool.

All the bed linen is 100 % cotton, there are no pillows with feathers, the bedside rugs are made of carpets and regularly cleaned with anti-allergic products. They can be removed upon request, if you prefer.

To respect the planet and minimize the risk of allergy, all the paint used for the apartment is without solvent.

The living room which opens from the bedroom with its sliding doors can be put at your private disposal for an additional amount of 25 euros per night. You will  then have at your disposal, a private "suite" of 32 square meters.
