Great Place!

This was a great property! I was a little worried with their being only one bedroom, but our family of five stayed here quite comfortably. The apartment was spotless, the kitchen very efficient, it was very well stocked with all the amenities. Gabrielle and her brother were quite helpful, and met us at the apartment even though we arrived late, and showed us how to operate the elevator, pointed out the view of the Eiffel Tower (from the bathroom :0) this made us all smile). It looked like the apartment had been renovated quite recently with a modern kitchen, updated bathroom and WC, new paint, and refinished floors. I was also impressed that they had two closets...a luxury! The location is quite convenient to the metro, the Champs Elysee, the Louvre, and almost all tourist attractions. The building was lovely, an old masion with a courtyard, there is a doorman who is there until 8pm. There is a Mono Prix less than a quarter mile away that is open until midnight...very important for that late night run to the store which is almost impossible anywhere in Europe. The downside might be that it is on the top floor (but there is an elevator), and it may be a bit cramped for 5 if you are looking for a place longer than a week...but we were grateful they took five since paying for two bedrooms would have been cost-prohibitive! And we were quite comfortable! I would rate this property and the owners with an Excellent rating! We all had a great stay Thanks Gabrielle for making it so enjoyable! I would definitely recommend.

Owner response:Dear Particia, It was a pleasure to meet you and your children and I am really glad you had a good time in the apartment. Best, Gabrielle

Amazingly, perfectly located apartment in fascinating city

I stayed with my family in this apartment which looks stunning! We loved this apartment as it is ideally situated in the heart of the city center, modern, very clean, and has a nice flat screen TV. Complimentary internet access is also available in the apartment. The pictures were exactly as described in the summary, and the apartment was perfect for our needs. Gabriella is very professional and accommodating landlord. She was very helpful and friendly form the first email I have exchanged with her. When we arrived to the apartment, Gabriella was waiting for us, she was a nice person and she tried her best to explain about the apartment and the nearby area, offering her service by asking us to contact her any time we need anything. She was very punctual upon our leaving to hand over the apartment back to her. Thank you very much Gabriella and we do appreciate your great support and services. This apartment is just few steps away from Ave Montaigne and Champs-Elysees with access to wonderful shopping boutiques, cafes, dining, grocery store, Cinema, Metro stops and a pharmacy as well. The beds are comfortable, the bathroom was spotless, and the living room is comfy and spacious. I especially loved that the landlord had some condiments in the kitchen (sugar, salt, pepper…etc) as well as paper towels and pots/pans. I really felt like I was living in Paris. I would definitely recommend this apartment.

Perfect location, roomy apartment, lovely owner!

My parents, sister and I stayed here for 4 nights over the New Years period in 2011/2012 and couldn't have picked a better place. The location is on the doorstep of the Champs Elysee. We were able to walk to the Eiffel Tower, Champs Elysee Christmas Markets, Arc De Triumph and the River Seine. For other destinations, the Metro station is a 3 min walk to the corner. On the other corner are luxury shops such as Prada, Chanel etc as well as cafes, restaurants and grocery shop all on the block. The apartment is clean, modern and even bigger than the pictures reflect. It is equipped with all the essentials - washing machine, kitchen facilities, iron, wardrobe, wifi and even a cupboard of books to read! The building itself is fully secure with 2 security doors and has the convenience of a lift. Finally, Gabriella was the perfect host. She was so friendly and gave us the luxury of choosing our check-in and check-out time and was there to greet us at the door. We got a full tour of the apartment and information of the immediate local area. I would recommend this apartment to anyone looking for a comfortable, roomy, secure apartment and wanting to feel like they are living a true Parisian lifestyle in Paris! I will definitely be re-booking on my next stay in Paris.

A very good stay in Paris

What to say when everything goes just like you dreamed about? We decided to rent this flat looking at the pictures in the net. Then we did the contacts via email and had a quicly answer. Gabriela, the owner, is an young lady that gave us all the instructions to arrive at the flat and the code to go inside the building (a historic one). The flat is so well located! Just near the middle of Champs Élysées! You have a metro station in the corner, a supermarket just across the Champs Élysées and all facilities and restaurants very close. Ah! The Eiffel Tower can be seeing from the window. The flat is well equipped, also with some goods that Gabiela leaves to her hosts. Believe me, anyone will appreciate staying there.

We spent a wonderful week after xmas in Gabriella's charming apartment. There were 5 of us and all felt quite cosy as it was very cold outside and had been snowing. The location is close to all the sites, supermarket, cafes and metro. Gabriella was more than helpful to us during our stay.

This apartment location is the best, one block away from everything: Champ-Elysees less than a block away, the supermarket and pharmacy around the corner, the metro and bus stop right on the corner. The Arc de triumph within walking distance as well as the galerie nationale. The area is full of restaurants and shops, a shoppers paradise. The neighborhood is very quite, my wife and I felt very safe coming and going at any time of the day or night. You would need to go thru two coded key doors to come into the building which at night is well lit. We instantly felt in love with the aparment decorated in the french style and loaded with all the modern conveniences, it's been recently renovated. The building has an elevator but doesn't go the way to the last floor so you have to climb one flight of stairs but all consider it is ok. Gabriella is the best to do business with; she waited for us even though we were late, very accommodating and always a phone call away. She gave us a tour of the apartment and the building. Most definitely we will stay again in this apartment next time in Paris, it gets five stars in my book.

Wonderful Apartment in Paris

Guest: Regina (New York)
Date of Stay: 09/04/10 Review Submitted: 09/19/10

This was a wonderful place to stay in Paris. Location is great. One block from subway on line 1. Walking distance to Effiel tower, Arc de Triumph, Orangeres, and multiple other places. Gabriella is a pleasure to deal with, and she keeps this place clean and up to date. It is turlly for no more than 3 people. I stayed there with my 2 kids, and it was fine. Kitchen is well equiped, we mostly ate in. Eating out with kids is very expensive and really hard.

Owner response:It was a pleasure to have you stay in my apartment and I am really happy to read that you had a nice time. It is true that 3 or more kids in the apartment, it is not ideal. I hope to welcome you again on your next trip to Paris.
