The Unique Benefits of this Apartment
It is great layout for families and one of the best locations you could have in Paris with three different Metro lines, an RER, a historical neighborhood which is fun and safe at all hours and easy walking to almost anywhere on the Left Bank. As our reviews suggest, we know many of our guests have planned for a lifetime to come to walk the streets of Paris, to have their children look up at the Eiffel Tower, to work and to play, and we do everything we can to ensure they enjoy every minute of their stay.

John and Anne-Marie: We just wanted to send you a note telling you how much we enjoyed your suite. It made us feel completely at home despite being far far away from home. We absolutely loved the area and everything that Paris had to offer. We found that it was easy to get anywhere we wanted to and all the café's that we could have hoped for. We would absolutely love to come back one day soon, hopefully without the kids and stay for much longer. Best Regards, Terry and Lori

We were 2 adults and 2 young children staying at this apartment for 6 nights in August. Yes, all other reviews are accurate. Georgeous apartment, quiet and safe neighbourhood, easily accessable to all sites by walking or metro, plenty of restaurants and cafes nearby frequented by parisiens (not tourist traps), however without question our favourite was the gelati shop on rue Vavin.

My two daughters and I enjoyed this spacious, clean and well stocked flat, with a kitchenette filled with amenities, a large master bed, and a very clean and modern bathroom. The main room /master bedroom was quite large. The pattisserie, super marche and so many other stores were close by. The neighbourhood was very safe. We liked to walk the quartier during the evening hours and sample the energy of the 6th arrondissement. I can't say enough about the location. It was superb. It was walking distance to monteparnasse , the latin quarter, and towards the east side of the Sorbonne, (where we found great and reasonable restaurants! We even walked to St. Michel near the Seine and to Notre Dame. There were several metro lines nearby within a few minutes walk. The RER train from the airport was just a short walk from the Port Royal station. We based our choice of this flat on the reviews here and the close proximity to everything one would want to see and experience in Paris. All of the reviews were spot-on! The owner, Anne- Marie was very attentive. She provided us with very helpful advice. We didn't feel like a customer, rather we were treated like family. When an problem arose, Anne-Marie was attentive and promptly responded in order to ameliorate the concern. We would have no hesitation whatsoever in returning to the flat on our next trip to Paris! I would highly recommend this flat!

My wife, son and I stayed for a week in July and loved the apartment and its location. The owners and their concierge were all very responsive and helpful when we needed something or had a question. The notebook, which they have written, has great restaurant and activity suggestions, of which there are many within walking distance. The Luxembourg Gardens are fantastic. The neighborhood is somewhat less touristy and crowded than areas closer to the Seine, which we loved about it. We will come back.

Quiet Comfort in the Heart of a Beautiful City

Our family of 5 (including 3 young children) had a 4 night stay in this Paris apartment in early August. The apartment was just what we had hoped for and more. Having just arrived from a stay in the relaxing Loire region of Paris, we were greeted with a very quiet, comfortable and well-equiped apartment in Arrondissement 6. After full days of sightseeing it was nice to come "home" to a relaxing place to rest our well-worn feet. The apartment has everything within a short distance including bakeries, restaurants, several Metro stops, and our favourite place, Jardin Du Luxembourg where the kids could enjoy a magical time in the large playground, and we could watch the world go by. Thanks for making our Paris experience a fantastic one!! We will certainly spread the word to our friends and relatives about this apartment.

My family of four stayed here for 4 days in August. The bldg is in a prime spot, very quiet and close to many nice restaurants. One can walk through the Luxembourg Gardens to Notre Dame Cathedral in about 20 minutes and it is a beautiful stroll. The property manager is extremely helpful, and the owners are responsive via e-mail. The layout was perfect and we never felt cramped. You can leave your belongings here and not be concerned, because the suite is accessed through a secure courtyard. We had a very pleasant stay, would definitely book again.

My family and I had a wonderful week here. Our children, ages 7 and 10, loved the Luxembourg Garden playground and begged to go there every day. Anne Marie and John are incredibly helpful, and Anne Marie even organized a taxi for us on our departure date, as we needed to leave very early in the morning. The apartment was the perfect size for a family of four and had everything we needed. The location is terrific. We bought baguettes daily at Patisserie Julien on the corner, and loved walking down Rue Vavin for gelato after our daily visit to the Luxembourg garden. It is very easy to get back and forth to the metro at Rue Notre Dames des Champs or Vavin. This was a wonderful apartment and we thank Anne-Marie and John for being such excellent hosts.

Gem of an Apartment

Review Submitted: 06/25/11
What a tranquil, beautiful gem on a quiet street for a family of 4! We loved this spacious (for Paris!) flat, with kitchenette filled with amenities, large master bed, and very clean bathroom. The main room/master bedrm. was much larger than I expected. The best boulangerie (my favorite), Julien, is down the street, and a classy toy store, 2 chocolatiers, lots of childrens boutiques, and the cozy Italian restaurant (loved by the locals and always crowded) are so close by. We loved the fact the Vavin metro was so close, and loved to explore Rue d. montparnasse for first time. Our FAVE was the proximity to Luxembourg Gardens where our kids could play. That was our draw to this flat, and it was the perfect decision. Other than the rainy weather while we were in Paris, our experience at this flat was perfect. thanks, AnneMarie, for the thoughtful gift basket with wine and chocolate, and coffee. The decor was tasteful. Your service impeccable. We shall return definitely. Thank you for everything!

Let me begin by saying that our Paris experience was incredible! It started with the rental of this wonderful apartment. I cannot express how great Anne-Marie was corresponding back and forth with any questions we may have had. The apartment was very comfortable, clean, and located in a wonderful area of Paris. One does not want for anything from plug converters to a hair dryer to an ironing board and iron! Another fantastic perk to this apartment was the free long distance calls back to the US (provided it was a land line). Our families were thrilled to hear from us each day knowing about our adventures. We saved a lot of money by purchasing many of our meals near by and eating in-house. Access to the metro and bus routes were very close as well as a bank teller machine! It is also a very safe neighborhood as we were 3 ladies traveling alone. Joe, the property manager, is very helpful and will assist in anyway that he can. Before we left, we were already talking about a return trip. I would highly recommend this property to anyone!

My family and I (5) spent 7 nights at this beautiful apartment. It was a tight fit but could not think of stayng anywhere else. Anne-maries touches throughout the apartment make it just the perfect place to stay to enjoy Paris. We were met by Joe the day we arrived (as Anne-Marie was away) and he explained everything we needed to know and that he was available for anything we needed, which was nothing as all the information needed is in the book that has been provided or just explore yourself. This city took our breath away and knowing we had such a beautiful, convenient and easily accessable place to return home to was wonderful. We went almost everywhere on foot however the metro stations are just around the corner and also a wonderful way to get around Paris. The area where the apartment is, well what can I say, fantastic. There is a beautfiul bakery just up the road (yum) a supermarket 50 metres away and just a beautiful community area to stay. There is a pizza (yes pizza) restaurant around the corner it is tiny but truly worth a visit the staff are just wonderful. Thank you so much for such a beautiful place to stay we had the time of our lives in Paris and we will most definately be back to this apartment for sure.
