In-Depth Review
Residence Charles Floquet may be the closest stay to the Eiffel Tower in Paris — it sits at 8 avenue Charles Floquet, just 50 m from the base of the tower. Open the apartment window and the Eiffel Tower is right there, square in front of you. It holds an 8.6/10 score from more than 1,135 guests, and plenty of reviews say the view from the room is the best they have ever seen in Paris.
Rooms and decor
Each unit in the building is a Parisian-style apartment with a full kitchen, fridge, washing machine and a sitting area. You can pick anything from a one-bedroom for a couple up to a 4-bedroom penthouse that sleeps 8. Every unit faces the Eiffel Tower directly through the window, and some have a balcony for watching it light up at night. That said, a few reviews note the decor in some units looks dated and could use a refresh, with small details like worn or incomplete kitchen gear.
Food and amenities
The full kitchen — fridge, electric stove, microwave and coffee maker — means you can shop at the Marche du Champ de Mars, the fresh market nearby, and cook your own meals. That saves a lot once you stay 5-7 nights or more, and the washing machine in every unit is handy on a long trip. The elevator, though, is small: several guests say a large suitcase will not fit, so you carry bags up one at a time or take the stairs, and some hear the floor above in the early morning.
Location and getting there
The location is hard to beat if you want to be as close to the Eiffel Tower as possible — step out the door and it is a 2-minute walk to Champ de Mars. Bir-Hakeim station on Line 6 is about 8 minutes away on foot, with easy connections to Trocadero, Montparnasse and Nation.
Things to know before booking
Two honest catches. The elevator is very small, so big suitcases struggle and may have to go up the stairs. And some units are aging — a few reviews mention dated decor and kitchen equipment that is worn or not fully stocked, plus occasional early-morning noise from the floor above. If quiet matters, ask about a higher or quieter unit when you book.
Our take
Residence Charles Floquet suits families, groups of friends or couples who want a longer stay with the Eiffel Tower right in front of them at a price you can split. If waking up to the tower outside your window is the whole point of the trip, this is the best choice in Paris for it.

The Honest Verdict — pros & what to know
- Just 50 m from the Eiffel Tower — a direct tower view from every apartment, and nothing here is closer.
- A full kitchen saves a lot on food once you stay 5-7 nights or more, especially with the Marche du Champ de Mars market a 2-minute walk away.
- Spacious apartments that range from a 1-bedroom up to a 4-bedroom penthouse sleeping 8 — easy to split across a family or group.
- An 8.6/10 score from more than 1,135 guests, with reviews calling it the best view they have ever seen in Paris.
- Champ de Mars is a 2-minute walk out the door, and Bir-Hakeim on Line 6 is about 8 minutes on foot for trains to Trocadero, Montparnasse and Nation.
- Some reviews report hearing the floor above, especially early in the morning, so light sleepers should ask about a higher or quieter unit.
- Some units are starting to show their age, and a few reviews mention dated decor or kitchen gear that is incomplete or worn.
- The elevator is very small — big suitcases do not fit well, so you may end up carrying them up the stairs one at a time.

Insider Tips
- Shop the Marche du Champ de Mars, the fresh market a 2-minute walk away, and cook in the apartment kitchen to save on a longer stay.
- If you are sensitive to noise, ask about a higher or quieter unit when booking — a few guests hear the floor above in the early morning.
- Pack light or use soft bags: the elevator is tiny, and large hard suitcases often have to go up the stairs.
