Your hosts apartment
Your host's apartment is located in a mansion which was built at the end of the 19th century. The building is located in an area where the historical monuments are protected and its front is typically Parisian.
The building was renovated in 1981 and the apartment was re-designed in 2009. The very brightly lit apartment is located on the fifth floor (with elevator). It is wide and offers a harmonious and relaxing feel with it’s light and tasteful decoration. Its furniture made of brown wengé wood have been created by Jean-Daniel Pilon (designer in Montréal) after Chantal created a little drawing to show him what she envisaged. In the living room, on the table, there is a beautiful lamp with short words of love in different languages, which has been made by another designer, Ingo Maurer.
