Paris is the sort of destination where fitting in can be a rewarding experience—whether it’s learning enough French to order your café et croissant from the neighborhood boulangerie or strolling around an artistic arrondissement, taking in the various shops and street style at a leisurely pace. In Paris, assimilating to the rhythm of everyday life is all too easy if you put in the effort, and that process often begins with choosing the right kind of accommodation. This is where the best Airbnbs in Paris enter the picture.

Choose between light-filled penthouses in stately Haussmann buildings and cozy, bohemian flats decorated with plants and wood-beam ceilings in the heart of the Marais—our edit has it all, whether you’re traveling solo or planning a big group trip. Peppered across the arrondissements, each spot has its own distinct flair. Keep in mind that many of the older buildings may not have elevators; if you’ve come to the city with a half-empty suitcase and a plan to stuff it with souvenirs, this is an amenity to look out for. (Less-practically, so are balconies that come with a nice view and a little bistro table for sipping your apéro glass of wine at home.)

For anyone planning a trip to the City of Light in search of an immersive experience, consider the roundup of properties ahead for a taste of what it’s like to reside in one of the most stylish cities on the planet.

Light by Les Halles by Veeve, 1st Arrondissement

For a grand apartment right in the middle of the historical center, book this ornate Airbnb. First-timers will appreciate its proximity to the Palais Royal, Centre Pompidou, and the Louvre; it’s also around the corner from the Les Halles shopping center, where you’ll find both great restaurants (Le Petit Bouillon Pharamond is a perennial favorite) and little shops (E. Dehillerin, Julia Child’s much-frequented kitchenware store, is a must). The home itself is no less impressive—high ceilings with crown molding, gilded mirrors, and parquet floors run throughout.

Rooms: 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms

Amenities: Bathtub, washer, indoor fireplace, long-term stays allowed, elevator

Location: Right by Les Halles

Paris Marais Keller Residence, 11th Arrondissement

For a vacation rental that feels designed by someone’s French grandma, choose this colorful, eclectic spot and make yourself at home. The kitchen, with its checkerboard-covered table, citron walls, and collected jumble of various tools and trinkets, is undoubtedly the center; but the bedrooms (there are three), with their massive windows and original terracotta floors are also nice—especially if you’re traveling with a big group, and want to make sure you each have enough space. When you do want to dine out, you’ll be well-positioned: Bistrot des Tournelles and Chez Paul, two wonderful traditional bistros, are located in this neighborhood.

Rooms: 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms

Amenities: Washer/dryer, TV

Location: Bastille district

Charming Durantin, 18th Arrondissement

Perched in the heart of Montmartre in the hilly, cobblestone-lined streets of the Abbesses neighborhood, this one-bedroom home is ideal for the couple who likes a bit of eclectic decor. Starting with the mishmash of antique furnishings in the living room (including a red velvet armchair) and going right through the lemon-yellow bedroom, the design of this place will make you feel like you’re visiting your artistic Parisian friend—no cold, white-box rooms here.

Rooms: 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom

Amenities: Washer, TV

Location: Abbesses district

Charming Studio, 7th Arrondissement

For the solo traveler who never wants to be too far from the sparkling lights of the Eiffel Tower, this little studio is a cozy cocoon. (Starting quite literally with the bed, which is cordoned off from the rest of the space by a chic glass wall and a gauzey curtain.) A tiny kitchenette stocked with the essentials lets you make the most of local treats—helpful, as the famous Rue Cler street market is just around the corner, so you can stock up on cheeses, quiche, and even rotisserie chickens for meals at home.

Rooms: 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom

Amenities: Washer, elevator, pet-friendly, housekeeping available at a fee

Location: On Rue Amélie, a quick walk to the Eiffel Tower

Sublime Loft, 11th Arrondissement

Not all Parisian Airbnbs are white crown moldings and baroque antiques; some, like this loft, can lean quite industrial. Iron beams and high ceilings make it seem even more spacious (the space itself is located in an old printing house); glass windows overlook an internal courtyard, if you need a quiet temporary home. Sandwiched between République and Canal St. Martin, it’s in a fun, more local part of the city. Walk along the water in the afternoon before ducking into Chambre Noir, a little wine bar near the apartment, for small plates and a crisp glass of white.

Rooms: 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom

Amenities: Bathtub, washer/dryer, TV, air conditioning, pet-friendly

Location: Canal St. Martin

Geranimus, 7th Arrondissement

It’ll be hard to beat this central location: This two-bedroom is situated directly at the base of the Champ de Mars, the grassy park that houses the Eiffel Tower. It’s as stately as its zip code implies—think, period-appropriate wall moldings that reflect its 19th-century origins and oversized windows, with the occasional unexpected pop of color (like a yellow window in the kitchen an pistachio dining chairs) to keep it from feeling stuffy. It also comes with an espresso machine, so if you ever tire of your local boulangerie—unlikely—you can start the day with coffee at home.

Rooms: 2 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms

Amenities: Bathtub, washer, elevator

Location: At the foot of the Eiffel Tower

Edgar Suites Tour Eiffel, 16th Arrondissement

Recently renovated, and situated in the residential Passy district, this spacious stay is great for a family vacation. A fully equipped kitchen, private patio, and large living area offer plenty of space for the whole group—and if you love mod design, contemporary tiling and sculptural furniture (starting with the tiled dining table pictured here) will move this option to the top of your list.

Rooms: 4 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms

Amenities: Bathtub, washer/dryer, TV, travel crib available upon request, AC, patio, outdoor furniture, private sauna

Location: Passy neighborhood, by the Eiffel Tower

Authentic Quiet Apart, 3rd Arrondissement

We’d book this Airbnb for the tiles alone. From the rainbow-colored bathtub to the celery green kitchen to the traditional tomettes that run throughout, it’s an effortlessly charming spot, located on the third floor of an 18th-century building. While it’s in a bustling neighborhood, the apartment itself is at the back of the property, so you’ll have quiet when you need it.

Rooms: 2 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms

Amenities: Bathtub, elevator, coffee maker, building staff

Location: In the Marais

Artist Studio, 18th Arrondissement

You’re alone in Paris, and you need an inspiring studio from which to focus on your creative project (or just finish your book in peace): This artist’s loft is it. Tall ceilings and an oversized window create a light-filled environment, while a dedicated workspace offers a quiet place to concentrate. There’s a small but well-appointed kitchen so you can cook your meals at home and truly feel at ease during your stay, however long it may be.

Rooms: 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom

Amenities: Washer, crib, coffee maker, shared backyard

Location: In Pigalle

Design & Luxury Home, 1st Arrondissement

Rooms: 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom

Amenities: Washer, HDTV, yoga mat, travel crib available upon request, coffee maker, elevator

Location: In the Louvre district

Appartement Art Déco, 16th Arrondissement

This two-bedroom apartment may just house the best balcony in all of Paris. It’s well-furnished, with plenty of plants and a bistro set for taking your breakfast outside, but the views of the Haussmann buildings and Eiffel Tower in the distance are what makes it really special. Inside, the design is cozy, with floral quilts and Art Deco-inspired lighting making everything seem warm.

Rooms: 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms

Amenities: Washer/dryer, Sonos Bluetooth sound system, indoor fireplace, air conditioning, coffee maker, balcony, outdoor furniture, elevator

Location: By the Trocadéro

Studio Retreat, 18th Arrondissement

From the terracotta tomettes to the oversized windows, this sunny one-bedroom is perfect for the solo traveler or a couple. The building dates back to the 19th century, but the decor is firmly 21st: Butter yellow bedding and a mustard-striped kitchen skirt are design ideas to bookmark for when you get home. And you can’t trump the location: It’s right in the heart of Montmartre, only a few blocks away from Boulangerie Raphaëlle (one of the all-time best bakeries in the city—trust us).

Rooms: 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom

Amenities: Travel crib available upon request, coffee maker

Location: Near the Sacré-Cœur

Rare Historic Family Apartment, 4th Arrondissement

The first thing this Airbnb has going for it is its location: It’s situated right on the Île Saint-Louis, one of the city’s two islands, and has a more quaint feel to it than some of the busier arrondissements. The second thing, of course, is its style. The building itself is listed as a historic monument dating back to the 17th century, and interior highlights like a painted ceiling and gilded mirror amplify the antique appeal.

Rooms: 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms

Amenities: Washer/dryer, piano, indoor fireplace, parking, hot tub

Location: Île Saint-Louis

Paris 9th Apartment, 9th Arrondissement

On the fifth floor of a traditional Haussmann building (there is an elevator, don’t worry) sits this elegant sunny spot. A long balcony stretches outside and includes a small bistro set for breakfasts outside—though the spacious dining room is also an enticing option. From the red-and-cream checkerboard kitchen to the ornate crown molding in the living area, it’s endlessly charming.

Rooms: 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms

Amenities: Bathtub, washer, sound system, board games, fire place, balcony, elevator

Locations: Near Montmartre

Exceptional Apartment, 4th Arrondissement

We found your Parisian tree house. Tucked away near the busy Place des Vosges, the fourth-floor apartment is well-sized for a couple or solo traveler in search of more unique accommodation: Rustic wood beams accent nearly every surface, brick flooring adds texture, and the tub looks out onto Haussmannian rooftoops for a cozy stay.

Amenities: Washer, television, piano, balcony, bathtub

Location: Place des Vosges

Design Sunny Apartment, 2nd Arrondissement

This sun-drenched two-bedroom near the Seine starts with a grand, golden-colored lobby, complete with a spiral staircase and tile floors. Upstairs, the duplex has lots of space to stretch out, from a dining table that doubles as a workspace to a bright living room to a small balcony. It’s in a fun area, too; Pizzeria Popolare, a great Italian spot, is just down the street, and you’re within easy exploring distance of all the boutiques and galleries the Marais has to offer.

Rooms: 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom

Amenities: Bathtub, washer/dryer, Bluetooth sound system, television, balcony, pets allowed

Location: Near the Marais

Luxembourg Garden, 6th Arrondissement

Steps away from the Odéon neighborhood and landmarks like the Pantheon and the Luxembourg Garden, this apartment is ideally situated.

This rental has tons of space for a family as well as several kid-friendly amenities available upon request; book it for a longer stay in the city.

Then there’s the location: If it’s your first time visiting Paris, the fact that the Louvre museum, the Centre Pompidou, and the Seine are all within walking distance will be a massive bonus.

Rooms: 2 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms

Amenities: Bathtub, washer/dryer, blackout shades, Devialet Bluetooth sound system, television, air conditioning, kitchen, dishwasher, espresso machine, balcony, housekeeping available at a cost

Arty and Central Architect’s Appartement, 10th Arrondissement

If you can’t pick between the trendy 10th or 3rd arrondissements—don’t. This bright and airy one-bedroom is smack in the middle, in an ideal area full of hole-in-the-wall eateries and natural wine bars. Since it’s owned and designed by an architect, its interiors are especially appealing: The mishmash of vintage furniture and flourishing greenery might just inspire you to redecorate when you get home.

Rooms: 1 bedroom, 1.5 bathrooms

Location: Right on the border of the 10th and the 3rd arrondissements

Rooms: 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom

Amenities: Washer, kitchen, coffee maker, pet-friendly

Location: In the Marais

Champs-Elysées Terrace, 8th Arrondissement

It’s conveniently located in the heart of Paris and stocked with modern creature comforts like a Nespresso machine and a Netflix-enabled television, but you really only need one reason to book this apartment: the massive terrace. Equipped with outdoor dining and seating, it’s a rare thing to find in the busy city (and, should you ever want a little quiet, an ideal spot to enjoy an apéro at home).

Rooms: 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom

Amenities: Washer, blackout shades, HDTV, Bose sound system, exercise equipment, travel crib, kitchen, Nespresso coffee maker, dishwasher, terrace, paid parking available

Originally belonging to the painter Georges Braque in 1911, this sweet studio has since been re-done to fit up to four guests (the sofa converts to a bed).

In the Heart of the Marais, 3rd Arrondissement

If you picked the Marais because of its art scene, you might as well commit to the experience and book an Airbnb directly overlooking the Picasso Museum.
