Your next house in Paris?


You're coming to Paris and you don't know where to stay? Well, I have the perfect place for you... This town house is ideally located (Avenue Franklin D Roosevelt, very near the Champs-Elysées), it's extremely beautiful and it has a very interesting history: The Count Le Marois had it built in 1863 then it was sold in 1927 to the France-Amériques association, an association that promotes a "mutual understanding between France and all the countries of North and South America". This house is for rent whenever you feel like throwing a party for several hundreds of people... (See the inside here). That's what I did last week ;-)

  8. Well that settles that Eric.. When I blow into Paris this winter, I'll just rent that fine place and we'll just have us one fine blogathon!! :) Well maybe some place smaller might be better. We'll chat!

  10. So . . . you threw a party here, or you attended a party here?? Either way, fabulous venue—and fabulous photo too! Have to agree with Tomate. Meanwhile, if I win the lottery (it's just a matter of time), you're all invited.

  11. I never thought I'd use 'fun' for such an elegantly beautiful house, but it's exactly what the lights do for it!

  12. Wow, that is quite a place! It looks like a great place for a party, but I think I'll stick with a nice small apartment.

  14. The inside's nothing like I expected! Your photo's a party, Eric.

    I love Tomate's idea, too.

  16. Lynn, it was a fabulous party. Thanks for the invite Eric.
    Oh dear, have I let the cat out of the bag?

    Tomate -great idea - if you pay the rent, we'll bring the sandwiches.

  17. Thanks for this Eric! Thanks to you, someone from the team is going to check it out tomorrow for an event. I love their website as well!

    Also, thanks to everyone who left a message on my niece's article. It really meant a lot to her (and me).

  18. Very cool....nice mix of modern and classic...

    And phx-cdg, it's funny...we have a new bottle of Leblon, so I was making some pre-dinner strawberry capirhinas last nite as we were sorting through pics from our recent Paris trip. Of course, I am only an understudy in the making of to my wife, a lovely Brazilian girl!
