The apartment is situated in the upscale 16th District. One of inner
Paris’s famous residential districts: The Trocadero, parallel from the very
lively rue de Passy.
It's situated on the “Triangle d’Or” which, way back was known as the area where wealthy people used to live, hence the beautiful building known as “Hausmanian period” going back to the late 1900 century.
This place is perfectly located to visit the city of lights; you'll be few
minute walks from the Trocadero
overlooking the Eiffel Tower (7th district), and about 20 minute walk from the
Arc de Triomphe and the Champs Elysée (8th district). You will also be close to
the Bois de Boulogne, known as the main green area of Paris. You'll be few
minutes’ walks from the Seine (near the Alma Bridge).
The nearest metro stations are Passy (3mns walks on line 6) and Porte de la Muette (10mns walks on line 9). The nearest RER station is RER Kennedy-Radio France (line C), this line will take to Versailles Castle and gardens.
