Dwellworks Living City Spotlight: Paris, France

Market Insights | Housing Options

Paris is the famous capital city of France, located in the north-central part of the country on the Seine River. Charming neighborhoods, museums, and exquisite gastronomy are only a few of the things this city is known for – Paris is the most important centre of commerce and culture in the country. The City of Light is home to a great number of national and international businesses: banks, insurance companies, and other financial institutions, as well as retailers and worldwide luxury brands. Outside the city, manufacturers have operations in areas such as Roissy-Charles de Gaulle. Post-Brexit, international companies operating in London consider Paris, as well as other European cities, an alternative business hub in Europe.

Paris is a mature temporary housing market. The consistent demand for serviced apartments has resulted in a well-developed supply of studios and 1-bedroom apartments. 2-bedroom and larger units are in short supply and expensive. An increase in price associated with the demand caused by large events is common with hotels, but temporary housing properties report no notable changes in availability/rates during high demand periods. January and February are considered the quieter months while the rest of the year sees steady demand without notable fluctuations.

Living Like a Local | Transportation

It is very easy to get around Paris using public transport. Reliable trains, busses, trams, and the Metro cover all areas very well. Driving in Paris is not for the fainthearted. Traffic can get congested and wide boulevards, junctions and roundabouts can be intimidating. Parking in the city centre can be challenging.

Serviced Apartment Average Rate Indicator*

* The following samples are average, nightly net rates based on a 12-month sample. Actual rates may vary based on availability and floor plan.

Extra Fees/City Tax (aka Tourist Tax)*

Almost all of the accommodations in Paris include a separate City Tax (aka Tourist Tax). This fee is relative to the classification local authorities assign to the property, which can range from 1 to 5 stars. The amount payable in City Tax, per person per night depends on that classification.

Property Locations

Popular options are sourced across many different areas, but the highest concentration of temporary housing is in 8th, 16th, 17th and 18th arrondissements. There are also options in the La Defense business centre as well as Neuilly-sur-Seine.
