When travelers dream of Paris, they often picture the sparkling Eiffel Tower, elegant Haussmann buildings and charming tree-lined streets – and for good reason. These are the very qualities that make the 7th arrondissement so beloved by our guests. But just across the Seine, the 16th arrondissement also offers a similarly graceful, residential feel with a quiet and delightfully local rhythm that’s perfect for longer stays.
At Paris Perfect, we love helping guests discover new corners of the city to fall in love with. That’s why we’re highlighting three exceptional monthly vacation rental apartments in the 16th arrondissement—Grillet, Pommard and Tannat—each offering a beautiful blend of comfort and elegance in a neighborhood that’s perfect for experiencing authentic Parisian charm.
The Passy neighborhood has a welcoming village-like atmosphere.
Why Stay in the 16th Arrondissement?
Elegant and residential, the 16th arrondissement and Passy neighborhood is where Parisian life quietly thrives. Locals linger over coffee at café terraces, families shop for seasonal produce at the lively Marché Président Wilson and food lovers head to Rue de l’Annonciation, a charming pedestrian street lined with gourmet shops, patisseries and some of the best specialty food stores in Paris. Strolling its leafy boulevards, you’ll also find a stunning array of architecture, from grand Haussmannian buildings to striking Art Nouveau and Art Deco façades that give the neighborhood its distinctive character as one of the loveliest in Paris.

While the 16th feels calm and distinctly local, it’s also incredibly well connected – just across the river from the Eiffel Tower, very near the Arc de Triomphe and close to the expansive Bois de Boulogne, one of Paris’s most beloved green spaces.
Culture lovers will also appreciate the world-class museums tucked throughout the arrondissement. The Fondation Louis Vuitton, housed in a striking Frank Gehry–designed building, hosts major international exhibitions. Nearby, the Musée Marmottan Monet holds the largest collection of Monet paintings in the world, including Impression, Sunrise, the iconic work that gave Impressionism its name.
