  • We have just spent a month here and enjoyed it so much that we immediately booked another month for next year. The location of the apartment means that it is very quiet, but it is also within walking distance of many attractions, restaurants and shops, so one has the best of both worlds. There is a metro at the end of the adjoining road. The apartment is well equipped and maintained, and contains a number of the owner's personal items, making it more like a home from home than the usual impersonal rental. A particular pleasure at the end of a long day's sight-seeing was to sit by the open balcony doors looking out over the roof-tops. Thoroughly recommended.

  • We stayed here for 10 days in February 2009. I want to second all the positive comments from the other guests. We have rented 5 other apartments in Paris for comparable amounts of money, and this is by far the largest and most well-furnished. You can always tell if an apartment was a well-loved home of someone at one time, or has always been a rental property. Someone has lived here, and it has the comforts that indicate this. eg. a good library for perusing, a well equipped kitchen (a blender!), plenty of storage space. The neighborhood is very quiet and non-commercial, but several blocks away are shops and restaurants. We were there in mid- winter and the heating was dependable,ample, and quiet. It is a lovely place to stay.

  • My wife and I spent our 20th anniversary in this apartment last spring....and it was a memory for a life time! It was our first time in Paris and we didn't know what to expect, but with a place like this for our "home" we felt safe, and comfortable. The neighborhood is quiet, but located so that nothing was too far away. We used both the Sully Morland and the Bastille metro stations, and the nearby Gare de Lyon train station, as well as just walking. The Seine is 2 minutes walk, the monoprix grocery store 15, and the restaurant neighborhood around the Place de Bastille about 10 minutes. Ille Saint-Louis is 5 minutes across the Siene, and Nortre Dame another 6 or 7...but the apartment is not in a "touristy" neighborhood. I cooked a number of the evening meals, and we ate in the dining room, before an evening walk along the Seine...many mornings we opened all the windows to the breezes and had our coffee and pasteries.. The bedroom has a unique tapestry, and an unadvertised reflected view of the Eiffel tower in the mirrored windows of a nearby office building, that is only visible when lying in bed at night when the hourly flashes go off or when it is lit with its warm glow.. This apartment had everything we needed, from condiments to bedding to cooking implements, to location and ambiance. We enjoyed the combination of eclectic asian and african decorations and modern furniture, and the charm and character of a building from an earlier generation. And the owner was very helpful and concerned about our stay being enjoyable. We used the wifi internet access extensively, as we had brought a laptop and used it to look up maps, stores, history, and the location of Jim Morrisons grave! Dont leave yours at home... Everything associated with our stay here is a wonderful memory. Dave and Claudette Adams highly recommend this apartment!

  • My sister and I stayed here in May 2008 for a little more than a week. It was amazing! Everything you need is within walking distance - 2 different subway line stops, bakery, fruit market, grocery, butcher shop. Cross the river over to Ile Saint Louis and eat at the best restaurant around - L'Auberge de Reine Blanche on Rue Saint Louis on the island - and the ice cream shop is right down from there if you have already tried all of their fabulous desserts. Despite being close to a main street (Henri IV Boulevard)it was not noisy at all in the evenings with the windows thrown open. The apartment was very clean - plenty of supplies if you make a mess! We never did figure out how to work the dryer but the washing machine will do small loads. The apartment was so much more than we ever dreamed. I'd buy it if I could - that's how perfect it was.

  • We travel abroad frequently and this is one of the most enjoyable and comfortable properties we have rented. The location in the historic Marais district is very central being a short walk to the lovely islands of Ile St. Louis and Ile de la Cite, to Notre Dame, to several museums including the Pompidou and Picasso and, to place de la Bastille with its many restaurants, shops and twice-weekly street market. My husband, the cook in the family, has thoroughly enjoyed the well-equipped kitchen while I have been impressed with the delightful and eclectic decor combining ethnic art from Africa and India with antiques and contemporary furnishings. The large and beautiful house plants have added to the feeling that you are in someone's home rather than a rental property. We have both appreciated how far removed the apartment is from street noise situated as it is on a quiet tree-lined street between two major boulevards and the Bastile yacht harbor. This spacious apartment has an airy feeling due to the high celings, floor-to-ceiling windows and views in three directions creating a light-filled ambiance. And, most appreciated for my work abroad, there is both WIFI and free long distance telephone service back to the states. The owner, who speaks excellent English, has been a delight and extremely helpful whenever we had a question or needed information. We are in our sixth week of a three-month stay and are already planning our return. We would highly recommend this apartment to anyone planning an extended stay in Paris.

  • My husband and I stayed for a week and we have told everyone how truly wonderful our experience was due to our lovely accomodations. We found ourselves not wanting to leave the flat. We mainly sat in the living room and had wine and chatted by the fire. The artwork is breathtaking as is the tapestry in the bedroom. The pictures on the website do not do this place justice. Floor to ceiling windows and terraced balconies make this flat an absolute gem! The dining room feels as if you are in a classic french movie. The kitchen has gorgeous dishes and truly everything you need to create the most lovely dinner. The flat is within walking distance to our favorite parts of paris and is one that we hope to return to again and again!

  • My daughter and I had a wonderful stay in this bright, comfortable, and spacious apartment. The building is quiet and well maintained, and the apartment is decorated with style and is very well equipped. Although it is close to a number of excellent restaurants, one of the joys of staying in an apartment in Paris is being able to eat in if you wish. There are bakeries and convenience stores nearby, and a short walk will get you to the bustle of rue St-Antoine, with even more bakeries, as well as charcuteries/traiteurs, green grocers, and a Monoprix with an excellent supermarket section. There is also a large outdoor market at Bastille (boulevard Richard Lenoir) on Thursdays and Sundays. The location is an excellent base for sightseeing and shopping all over Paris; the Bastille metro stop is a transfer point for a number of lines, and the apartment is also close to the Sully-Morland metro station. The owner is gracious and responsive. We recommend it highly.

  • We found this apartment to be lovely and comfortable, access was very easy. The rooms were spacious and the wonderful "old-style" architectural details really enhanced our experience and appreciation for this beautiful city. Most delightfully amazing was that, even as we were only minutes by foot from the activities and vibrant culture that is Paris (Place de la Bastille, Jardin des Plants, The Marais, île de la Cité, Latin Quarter, etc.), our street was quiet and peaceful. We highly recommend this accommodation to anyone visiting Paris.

  • This is a luminous,cheerful, aesthetically pleasing,well equiped and conveniently located apartment. It is very calm and quiet as it is surrounded by public buildings while it is only a few minutes away from the bustling rue St. Antoine where all catering needs can be met.There is even a "Fauchon" a few blocks away for a fine gourmet dinner at home. The comfortable living room is tastefully decorated with stained glass, marble fireplaces,beautiful mirrors and indoor plants and has a personal touch not to be found in hotel rooms. The bedroom has a fabulous oriental tapestry to please the senses and an anatomic bed to guarantee a comfortable sleep. My husband and myself enjoyed an unforgettable fortnight at this lovely apartment in a charming neighbourhood of a fascinating city and strongly recommend it.
