Have stayed at this gorgeous paris apartment several times already and plan to come back again soon. Its a stunning flat, very luxurious and posh in an impressive building with good security, high ceilings, lovely period features (its very parisian) high spec luxury kitchen, cute balconies (with view of the louvre and the seine!!) and lots of space (its huge!) Amazing location - loads of lovely restaurants and shops very close by and food market just round the corner on sundays, only 10/15 min walk to Marais, 5 mins to the louvre and only 1 minute from the metro. Very comfy beds and pillows (always slept really well here) huge tv in the living room, washing machine AND dryer which is very handy for long stays, wifi internet, house phone - everything you could need. Also the agency is very helpful with any questions or problems. Would def recommend this property to friends and family.

My husband and I returned along with 2 other couples and once again had a wonderful time staying in this lovely apt.We discovered additional awesome restaurants and shops very close by. We were within walking distance to the office of Cityrama tours which provides fabulous options for sightseeing too. O Chateau wine tastings/ bar also in walking distance. The apartment is very well equipped and is so convenient to the metro, bus etc. The Staff are all most helpful with any questions. We highly endorse this apartment!

Owner response:thanks soo much Eva for your comments. it s always a good news to get customer happy. Damien and his team try to offer the best services to our guest, try to maintain this apartment at the best level of services and quality. I hope to see you soon in next futur trip in Paris. dominique and caroline, owner.

Wonderful apartment in perfect location

It's always a little nerve-wracking to rent an apartment sight unseen but the moment we walked into 16 Rue de Louvre, we knew we had made a great choice. It is spacious and attractive with everything our family of six needed to feel comfortable during our week-long Paris visit. The location is great. We found two neighborhood groceries right around the corner as well a good bakery. We were a little worried that the location might be a bit "touristy" since it was near the Louvre, but it really is the best of both worlds: just a few steps to the Louvre and two Metro stops in one direction but also within a couple of blocks of the charming Les Halles neighborhood with its many small cafes and restaurants filled with mostly local patrons. Quick note: We loved that the apartment is directly above the green Deluc Detective agency sign so prominently displayed in Woody Allen's most recent film, Midnight in Paris). The apartment's management team was helpful and efficient. They arranged a van to pick us up at the airport as well as bring us to the train station. A little pricey but worth it for a family after a 10 hour flight on Bastille Day! Other positive points:Used the Wifi and free land-line calls to the US and Paris without any glitches. Well-appointed kitchen, wonderful balcony views, and spaciousness that allowed everyone to have their own space. And of course the charming wrought-iron elevator that was so appreciated after a day of sightseeing.

Quintessential Parisian Apartment

Date of Stay: 06/04/11 Review Submitted: 06/15/11

This renovated apartment has sophisticated modern black and white decor in a lovely older building with hardwood floors and French doors leading to balconies. My husband and I stayed there for a week with our 2 college age grandchildren; it was within easy distance not only of the Louvre, but also other museums and attractions, shopping, the metro, and restaurants. (We highly recommend Le Fumoir, less than a block away). The grandchildren particularly appreciated the internet capability which allowed them to use their laptops and the phone service which allowed them to talk to their significant others in the US. We found having an apartment so much more enjoyable than a hotel. While we ate out at least once a day, we kept bread, wine, cheese, fruit, coffee, etc. so that we could have breakfast and simple meals there.(There is a small market close by, as well as a patisserie for delicious eclairs). It's also nice to have the space to relax in the living room, play cards in the dining room, or retire to a bedroom when you wish. Just one thing: the "master" bedroom and bath is the smallest and least desirable, with a very small shower in the bedroom. The other bedrooms and bath were more commodious. We would certainly recommend this property, and the GlamParis people who manage it. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

We absolutely loved the apartment

My daughters and I stayed in this apartment for 5 weeks recently. We absolutely loved the apartment, the building and the location. It was quite perfect for us and we never wanted to leave. Just meters from a metro station, a couple of hundred meters from the Les Halles RER/ metro station, a bus stop outside. All kinds of shopping, restaurants and supermarkets surrounding us, even a swimming pool a couple of blocks away. I found the agency to be a pleasure to deal with and very professional. I am already planning a return.

Great spot for afternoon breaks

We had a group of 6 people ranging from 13 yrs old to 70 years old. We decided to stay in an apartment so that we could have a place to socialize while taking an occasional break from touring. It was a wonderful choice. If grandma or grandpa needed a little nap, the rest of us could either rest or go next door to a bistro and grab a glass of wine or have a little afternoon wine and cheese in our own apartment. The apartment was very large and had a wonderful dining room with a large table. The wireless internet worked fine. We struggled a little with the washer/dryer until we figured it out. The bathrooms are tiny, but that is just nitpicking. Overall it was a wonderful place to stay and we would definitely recommend it!

We thoroughly enjoyed our recent stay in this beautiful home away from home! Well appointed with all the comforts and stylishly decorated, this place was an oasis. with a view of the Louvre from the balcony. The modern kitchen allowed us to dine in comfortably with grocery and pastry/bakery shops minutes away, or we ventured out in any direction for wonderful bistros again all within the block. Shopping was also easily accessed on foot. Located centrally and within easy walking distance of so many wonderful sites it was perfect for my family of 6! Also, close to metro stops and our favorite- bus routes, we managed to travel about with ease! The taxi service they referred us to also was prompt and courteous for arrival and departure. We have definitely told all our friends that this is THE place to stay while in Paris and we are already planning our return!

Wonderful stay

We were three mature couples spending a long weekend in Paris in May 2010. For hotels rooms of this standard we would have had to pay more than we did here. One upside was that we had a kitchen, and a table to sit around together in the evenings. With the great shops for quality food and wine in the rue Montorgueuil, relatively near by, we ended up lunching out and dining in.There is a baker just around the corner for breakfast stuff. We like cooking when in France, and it saves a lot of money. There is however a good choice of restaurants very near the apartment. We had Sunday lunch at one-michelin-star Yam'tcha, just a minute away. Recommended! The people from the company that run the property were very friendly and helpful. To keep up the standard the owner/company will need to check on things systematically. The carpet under the dining table needs to be cleaned/replaced. And for cooking more good knives are needed. And a good tin opener (for confit de canard!). We absolutely recommend this appartment. The location could hardly be better, and the bedrooms are at the back, away from the street noise.

Owner response:Thanks a lot. hope to see you again and have good fun in Paris. we will improve all time quality services and give you the best all time. services management is always happy to get good review.

An Amazing Week in Paris

Date of Stay: 05/11/10 Review Submitted: 05/21/10

We have booked thru VRBO several times and have never been disappointed. The central location of this apartment was perfect along with the apartment itself. It's a 100 year old beautiful building with modern furnishings, lighting, and baths. Minor issues? Sure. But that's all a part of the charm of living in the heart of an old city in an old building. There were 6 of us and all very comfortable. The down comforters on the beds are wonderful and plenty of privacy for all. And our contact person was very helpful whenever needed, both during our trip planning and upon arrival. What a treat to experience Paris from the heart of it all. There are several bakeries, markets, restaurants and crepe stands without even having to cross the street. And then to cross the street and there is the Louvre...To be able to cut through the courtyards of the Louvre as a shortcut to other parts of the city has got to be one of the most amazing feelings. Worth the price? Absolutely. Would we come again and stay in this same apartment? In a heartbeat. Merci and Au revoir!
