Marcheron Hall offers a welcoming, collegial atmosphere and is conveniently served by the Paris Metro (line 13), bus lines, and a commuter train with direct service to the Montparnasse metro station. There are supermarkets, bakeries, pharmacies, and other stores within walking distance. The residence is staffed by Parsons community advisors (CAs), who organize student activities and help maintain a safe and supportive home away from home. Marcheron Hall consists of individual studio apartments. Each includes a bed that converts to a sofa, a desk and chair, shelves for books, access to high-speed Internet, and an individual bathroom with a shower. Students also have access to a kitchenette with a microwave. All Parsons Paris students who apply for housing are assigned a room in Marcheron unless they express a preference for another option.
