In another of its occasional publicity-grabbing special events, Airbnb is offering an overnight stay in a bedroom created inside the largest box at Paris’s Palais Garnier opera house, legendary home of the Phantom of the Opera.
And just to make it a little more so, it’s being hosted by Veronique Ledoux, great grand-daughter of novelist Gaston Leroux whose novel, Phantom of the Opera, led to the highly-popular stage and movie versions, all set at the Paris Opera. Bidding for the night opens March 1st, and the sleepover date is July 16.
The lucky winner will get a true bargain: the price is set at €37, and includes not only the fancy setting but also a chance to visit parts of the house not usually open to the public including the archives and the underground lake, but also attend a recital by the dancers of the Paris Opera and a champagne reception.
