Just off Place Des Vosges, this apartment sits in the best area of the most sought-after neighborhood in Paris.

The 750 sq ft. apartment is up three flights of stairs --there is also an elevator. It is located accross two courtyards, with cross exposure, meaning it is very well lit, and offers absolute silence.

There are two independent bedrooms. The master bedroom has a queen-size bed, the other two single beds, all high quality. Windows in both bedrooms face the south, so it's very sunny throughout the day. They open on a beautiful garden down below.

The living room has two windows also. The cross exposure makes it easy to create a nice breeze, should the weather get hot. If features a confortable sofabed, two loveseats, an antique mahogany dining table & six chairs, a big television set with cable TV (includes CNN, BBC international, etc. ) and a small CD player

The bathroom is quite large by parisian standards. It has a tub that doubles as a shower. It's been recently redone with beautiful enameled tiles. The boiler/water heater in the apartment provides unlimited, hot water on demand and allows for adjustable and efficient heating in the winter months.

The kitchen is separated from the living area. It’s fitted with a dishwasher, electric oven, gas cooktop, refrigerator & freezer, microwave oven, kettle, coffee machine. There is also a washing machine and a clothes dryer.

The 18th century building, recently redone, is at the corner of rue de Turenne and rue des Francs-Bourgeois, a stones throw from the beautiful Place des Vosges, two minutes from Musee Picasso and Musee Carnavalet.

Le Marais a very nice, central and safe neighborhood with plenty of trendy shops and boutiques ranging from fashion to antiques, plus lots of Museums and historic spots. Unlike some other areas in Paris, you won't have to run very far to buy your dinner: there are several food markets & shops close by. Just across the street is the best bakery in the area...

There's a lot to see within walking distance, and there's a lot of public transportation options just minutes away, which makes the apartment a very strategic location for a Paris visit.

  • Recently our family of 5 spent 8 wonderful days in David's very French in style, very quiet but very well appointed apartment. Large bedrooms and the kitchen with all mod cons plus that washer and dryer so essential travelling with the family. The apartment is superbly located in the Le Marais area of Paris (the very best area to stay) and we were able to walk to most of the sites of Paris from the apartment. Used the Metro for our return mostly St Paul but 2 other stations are close by. A couple of good supermarkets near St.Paul plus a smaller one close to the apartment served us well for all our food and wine supplies. Really appreciated being able to call our family and friends back in Australia for no charge as well as the free internet, such services a real bonus. The Marias has wonderful restaurants, food shops and is so full of life without feeling at all touristy which is exactly what we were looking for. Was a pleasure to return to our quiet, atmospheric apartment after a long day out. David was so helpful and obliging, gave us lots of info to assist with our trip and right from the first booking inquiry we found it just a pleasure to deal with David. Thank-you David for a wonderful stay in Paris.

  • We stayed in David's appartment for the first week of April 2007 and loved the appartment and the location.There was plenty of room for 4 adults, the appartment was quiet, the beds were very comfortable, the kitchen well equipped and the aspect light and airy. We really liked having access to free phone calls home to Australia and the UK to keep in touch with our children and the washing machine was appreciated. Dealing with David from the time of booking to our arrival was a pleasure and we found the concierge equally as friendly. In the immediate surroundings the Place des Vosges, the Bastile area and the Museums of the Marais and the Seine and Notre Dame were all within walking distance and we made good use of all three local metro stations depending on our sightseeing for the day. St Paul on Metro line no 1 was the most useful giving access to most of the main sights within 10 - 15 minutes. There are lots of good places to eat nearby and at the end of a long day you would find us at the blue cafe on the intersection of Rue de Turenne and Rue des Francs Bourgeois just watching the Parisien world go by! Couldn't recommend this appartment and the location more highly! Thanks David for making your appartment available to us.

  • Why stay at a hotel ever again? Our week at David’s lovely apartment at the end of February-beginning of March was our first experience with a vacation apartment rental and it exceeded our expectations. My husband and I were traveling with our 2 daughters, ages 8 and 13, and we were hoping to find affordable accommodations that would allow for the girls to have their own bedroom and better yet, own beds. The apartment provided more than enough space for everyone to spread out. As previous commenters have stated, the kitchen is well stocked and hot water holds up for all to take a shower (including a lengthy teenage girl’s shower) The true highlight for the apartment is location, location, location. The apartment’s courtyard location keeps it wonderfully quiet, yet it is just steps from a bakery across the street (great for croissants, brioche and baguettes…all favorites of the kids), wonderful shopping of the Marais, and if you need staples to cook or clean up, a short 5 minute walk to a well stocked market. To the list of restaurants near by (which David has available in the apartment) we would add Mai Thai (just 2 blocks away at 24 bis, rue Saint-Gilles) and Au Bourguignon (a few more blocks at 52 rue Francois Miron) where our entire family enjoyed great meals. Walks to Musee Picasso and Pompidou are very easy, but with good walking shoes, we (including the 8 year old) found it quite doable to walk home from the D’Orsay area one day and the Sorbonne area another, even in February weather. We enjoyed meeting David who was readily available to answer questions and meet our needs, including arranging for a large taxi to get us all to the airport very early in the morning. We can’t wait to go back and recommend highly.

  • We just got back from our fourth annual stay at 39, rue de Turenne. It is like home for us. Spacious, quiet, and in the perfect location. David is charming and very helpful. I don't think I ever told David just how comfortable is the bed in the master BR. I sleep very well and feel terrific. Attention tea drinkers: the infusor and the strainer are our contributions. Enjoy them when you brew a cup or a pot of Pu-erh from Mariage Freres, only a few blocks away.
    
    Homeowner Response:
    Thanks ! Gotta try that Pu-erh.

  • We stayed in this wonderful apartment for two weeks in November 2006. There were three adults and we had plenty of room. The beds were extremely comfortable and plenty of room in the living room to use our laptop, watch cable tv, read or our favorite activity in the evening was to talk about our day's travels around Paris while drinking a glass or two of wine. Our landlord and host - David Korn - could not have been more gracious and welcoming us to this fabulous two bedroom one bath apartment in the Marais. There is a fabulous bakery across the street and the many grocery stores, produce markets, butchers, cheese shops, wine stores, cafes, and everything we needed were within easy walking distance. The kitchen has everything you need and lots of room to work in, lots of counter space. There is even a washer and dryer. The apartment is located on a busy street, but the apartment is between two courtyards and very, very quiet. You do not hear any street noise. There were plenty of towels (even wash/face cloths). The apartment was warm and we had the windows open most of the time. We cannot wait to return to Paris and stay in this apartment again. We have stayed in vacation apartment rentals numerous times, but again our host/landlord was the best experience we have ever had. Jerry Carrig

  • Very comfortable roomy apartment near all conveniences-I miss our fresh baked croissants from across the street already! Virtually no street noise. Free telephone calls were a huge plus to check in at home. Large bathroom with lots of shelf space and bathtub with shower. GREAT water pressure. We were two couples and quite comfortable here. David was very easy to communicate with, pre-visit and during our visit. It was so nice coming "home" every evening. Enjoy!

  • We stayed in this apartment for a week at the end of April, with our two young children. We loved the location and the apartment was very spacious and well equipped, but best of all it was quiet - with no street noise. Although we didn't actually meet David he was only ever a phone call away and he was always very helpful with any queries we had. We would not hesitate to stay here again.
    
    Homeowner Response:
    Thanks Susan! You are very welcome to return in the future. Thanks for taking good care of the apartment during your stay.

  • We stayed in this apartment in May with our adult children and really loved it. The location was great, it was very quiet, roomy enough for the four of us and well equipped. Compared to other European bathrooms we have experienced, the bathroom is very big! David was very helpful and a pleasure to meet. We would definitely stay again

  • This was our first trip to Paris and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The apartment was very comfortable. After busy days sightseeing it was nice to come back to such a quiet and peaceful atmosphere. The location is ideal. There are three metro stops within a few minutes walk, a wonderful bakery right across the street, wine store, market, nice restaurants, everything you could possibly need within steps. The owner was helpful and very pleasant.
