Location: Paris Arrondissement 6, Paris, Ile-de-France (Paris Area), France, Europe (Just a Few Steps from Café Deux Magots and Café Flore) View Map
Accommodations: Apartment, 2 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2 Baths (Sleeps 4-6)
Keywords: Apartment
This exclusive two-bedroom / two-shower apartment is located in what is by common consensus the very best Paris location of all: the heart of smart St-Germain-des-Prés. The apartment is mere steps from the famed Café Flore and Café Deux Magots institutions, where the Paris intelligencia historically went to sip their coffee. Today the neighborhood is Paris' most sought-after.
The apartment was renovated from floor to ceiling using high-quality materials, fittings and furnishings. An architect and interior designer worked together to bring you a top-drawer result.
With the Apostrophe boutique (cutting-edge Paris fashion) on the ground floor, the apartment is on the 2nd floor walk-up of a modest 18th century building. The unrestored communal parts retain the feel of old Paris.
The entrance of the apartment opens onto the living room and also distributes the other rooms and separate lavatory. A clever glass-panelled partition in the hallway offers a view of the open kitchen, and a welcome sense of space and brightness.
The living room features two French windows, with ample seating for 4. The floors are finished in magnificent gray-stained hardwood parquet boards. The room is color-coordinated in subtle tones of beiges and grays. The overall feel is one of subdued refinement with a special Parisian cachet. It's a wonderful space to unwind in, with double glazing ensuring peace and quiet.
The contemporary oak kitchen is open on the living room and is fully equipped, including a dish-washer. There is a table and seating for four.
The first bedroom is street-facing (quiet with double-glazing), a queen-sized double bed and generous fitted closets. The room is finished in taupes and contrasting accents of fushia. This bedroom is associated with a stylish marble-clad bathroom.
The second bedroom is courtyard-side, with zenithal light coming in from a large ceiling window that has a black-out blind. The room is finished in delicate beiges, has a queen-sized bed (that can also be made as two singles) and fitted clothes closet. This bedroom has an ensuite shower area that has been cleverly designed as a luxury boudoire, so it feels almost like small private living room, exclusively for the occupants of the second bedroom.
The communal parts of this building (staircase and hallways) are largely unrestored (but clean), retaining the simple charm of a bygone era. We have therefore elected to offer this stylish and elegant 2-bedroom / 2-shower apartment at an attractive price. Take advantage of this keen rate, offering economical access to a great apartment in a fairytale left-bank location in the centre of Saint-Germain, the most sought-after Paris neighborhood!

Hi, my name is Alex. I am half French, half English and have lived in London, Paris and Los Angeles. I own this apartment with my partner, Isa. We both love Paris and especially the St Germain des Prés area because it has so much to offer (coffee shops, restaurants, great shopping, museums, the Luxembourg gardens). We would be glad to have you as a guest and we hope you enjoy your stay in Paris.
Warm regards,
Alex Wagner and Isa Enjolras

Fabulous Apartment...Best Vacation Yet!
Guest: Well Traveled Paris Lover

Review Submitted: 11/27/11
My family and I just returned (2 days ago) from staying a week in this fabulous apartment and I couldn't wait to write a review. It well exceeded our expectations. The apartment was well suited for 3 adults and 2 children (8y & 10Y) The location is excellent and centrally located to all that is Paris! We walked everywhere and we were happy to come "home" and relax with a glass of wine. The owners are great to work with and made for a flawless vacation. We have already told our friends and family about this apartment...Highly Recommend!

Lovely Apartment in Great Location

Review Submitted: 08/02/11
My family (7-45) stayed in this apartment for a long weekend in July 2011. It Is beautiful and exactly as pictured (except a little bit smaller.) The apartment is immaculate, the bedding is luxurious, the decor is tasteful, and the location is great. All of the appliances worked well except the strange, little French clothes dryer which we never quite got to work and the airconditioner which seemed to vent right back into the apartment. There is probably a way to get these things to work , we just never bothered asking since we were only there 3 days. The famous hot chocolate at Deux Magots is 2 blocks away as is St. Germain church (the oldest in Paris) and a Monoprix (grocery store). The apartment also comes with a very useful binder filled with restaurant recommendations, etc...

Great location and wonderful apartment

The location of this apartment was perfect for sightseeing, walking and enjoying life in Paris. We had 2 toddlers staying in the apartment and they had a blast. We were able to walk to many of the attractions in Paris and then could return to our cozy apartment to relax, have a snack or dinner, and sleep. The owners were extremely accomodating when our plane was delayed and stayed in close contact with us to make sure we arrived safely. The apartment was clean and well stocked with all the essentials. We had a fabulous trip and would stay here again.

Our family of 6 (4 teenagers) stayed in this fabulous apartment for a week over Christmas. The location is perfect - only steps or a few blocks from cafès, boutiques, and Metro stops. It was an ideal home base for all the sightseeing we did in Paris. It was a little "cozy" for 6 people but definitely do-able. I would highly recommend this apartment and this neighborhood!

My 3 friends & I really enjoyed staying at your apartment for 12 days in late April/early May. It was very comfortable & wonderfully convenient. Traffic noise was not a problem-the apartment was quiet. For our first experience renting an apartment outside of the United States, it couldn't have been a better choice. It was clean & ready for us. All the info we needed was provided, both verbally & in a booklet. It was close to everything we wanted to see. We could walk to so much. Metro stations were convenient also. I definitely would recommend it. Hope I can stay here again someday.

Paris holiday

Review Submitted: 05/28/10
We had 15 fabulous days in the apartment and it catered for two couples and an adult daughter extremely well. Fantastic location as we were able to walk almost everywhere and when we need to use the Metro there was close access to two lines. The welcome bottleof wine was a really nice touch, but more importantly being able to leave our luggage in the apartment until the last minute of our departure was a real bonus. Very clean and with the windows closed, very quiet for the location. As we were staying at the begining of spring, the temperature was fine, and there are just so many great places to eat out, we only used the glasses in the apartment.
