Why the Owner Chose Paris Arrondissement 3
Great location in vibrant area of Paris
The Unique Benefits at this Apartment
The surrounding area is full of typical french architecture buildings which makes the Marais a very special, beautiful place to stay. The location of the apartment is brilliant for traveling to and exploring the area on foot could not be easier from the apartment. Half a dozen world class museums are on your doorstep, there's a myriad of cafes close by which you are practically guaranteed good cooking and it's a shopper's delight with many boutique shops. There are spas close by for total relaxation or bars and clubs for night time fun.
Beautiful 17th century square built during the reign of Henri IV. Now hosting multiple caf�s and art galleries. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Place_des_Vosges
Pleasant walk along the canal where you will find cafes, bars and a park for the kids. Favourite picnic spot in the summer
Great street for food shopping and cafes. The oldest market in Paris, March� des Enfants Rouges is also on this street (open Tue-Sun morning)
Owner's Map of Paris Arrondissement 3
We bought the apartment in 2005 after falling in love in Paris and with Paris during many holiday breaks from Ireland! We instantly loved the original french features of the apartment like the floor to ceiling windows, 100 year old flooring and beautiful cherubic reliefs on the walls. We live in Belfast, Ireland with our 3 young children and Nick works in Kenya which explains the African Art in the apartment! I hope you enjoy your stay in Paris. Warmest regards,
Lucy and Nick

Dear Christiana, From the communication early on in the piece, to the tiny details intended to make a visitor's stay memorable, you did it all perfectly. We were so grateful that the apartment was really as good as it looked on the internet and that the location was great. We already fell in love with Paris and your apartment has given us an excuse to come back for more! Many thanks, Linda, Nam and Abigail - Townsville, Australia

Bonjour Lucy & Nick. We have had a super duper weekend in your gorgeous apartment. It is super deluxe and we are loving the location. I am happy to say the coffee machine only foxed us until this morning, but we have now seen the light. Thanks for letting us stay and looking forward to hanging with you here very soon. Big kiss, Joanie
