Small Paris apartments' surprising advantage
The article addresses the phenomenon of "maid's rooms" in Paris, which are among the smallest apartments available for rent in the city, sometimes occupying less than 100 square feet. Originally built to accommodate domestic workers, these rooms are located on the upper floors of luxury towers, offering distinctive views of the city. As of 2022, there were over 90,000 such apartments, with residents paying approximately $800 a month. Despite their limited space, this price is below the cost of most apartments in Paris. Living in these apartments represents a trade-off between space and location, as both residents and tourists choose them—paying up to $140 per night to stay in the heart of the capital.
