The apartment was constructed in just 48 hours by HomeAway – the sponsor and providor of fan accomodation for the champiosnhop.  French interior designer Benoît Leleu transformed a conference room in the Eiffel Tower into a soccer-themed spread apartment comprised of a large lounge, a greenhouse and two bedrooms.

The apartment  has panoramic views of Paris with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the Grand Palais, Arc de Triomphe, Sacre Coeur on Montmartre, and the Seine River.

Four contest winners, each accompanied by up to five additional guests, will enjoy overnight stays at the two-bedroom pop-up on June 23, June 28, July 4, and July 8, plus three additional nights at a HomeAway accommodation in Paris. The extravagant package also includes roundtrip transportation and a specially prepared gourmet dinner
