It's a 7-floor climb to an 8 square meter room. I'm not sure anyone's calling it a luxury apartment.
Look at the before&after pictures on the original http://kitoko-studio.com/projects/interior/maids-room-renovation-cdb.php?lang=en http://kitoko-studio.com/projects/interior/maids-room-renova... - you'll see it's more an exercise in trying to sell every last bit of space in existing buildings.

Reminds me of this https://www.theguardian.com/money/2014/aug/29/london-renters-trapped-1000-month-rabbit-hutch-studio-flat https://www.theguardian.com/money/2014/aug/29/london-renters... I guess in this case "luxury" => "doesn't contain second-hand furniture".

- Jugurtha 10y agoAs mentioned in the title, it's a maid's room ("Chambre de bonne"[0]). The structure of these buildings is quite interesting. The stratification of classes through the floors they occupy (the first floor is called "piano nobile" for a reason), but you're probably French and you know all about Haussmann's renovation.
