Eric
I made the "sleeping lion" for the pleasure. For the pleasure to create a different style of accommodation: I keept the basic essentials of a modern an confortable flat, but mixed with a twist of history made of customized antics and typical from "the Marais", where the apartment is located. For the pleasure to welcome, to meet, to advise my guests who are looking for more than just a room for the night. For the pleasure to build a network with people who are on the same wavelenght and like travels and exchanges. I'm into art, architecture, flowers, photography, design, history... Paris and much more. I hope you'll enjoy staying at "the sleeping lion" !
