Are you coming to Roland Garros or just looking to experience the true Paris away from the tourist tracks?
Our apartment in Paris is ideally located in the upscale and wealthy area of the 16th arrondissement of Paris, in the Village d'Auteuil, nearby Roland Garros, the Bois de Boulogne and the river banks of the Seine.
The Village d'Auteuil is a very safe area filled with gourmet shops, bakeries, farmers markets and restaurants, centered around the Eglise d'Auteuil church.
Many well-known people have enjoyed the tranquility of the village: in the 17th Century, Boileau, Molière, Racine and later Turgot, Chateaubriand, Hugo, and the Goncourt brothers. In 1860, the village was joined with Paris and its name was given to a road.
Today, it is at the heart of a rich area which retains many grand villas, properties of wealthy Parisians, away from the crowded tourist paths. You will not find too many tourists here and are guaranteed to experience Paris as a true Parisian yet you will be just minutes away from the major sightseeing.
The apartment is surrounded by several bus lines and metro stations that make it easy and fast to go direct to all major sights in Paris: direct metro to the Trocadero/Eiffel tower, direct metro or direct bus to the Champs Elysees, direct metro to Odeon/St Germain/Latin quarter.
Our apartment is perfect for a couple with two children. It is located on the 5th floor of a spacious building with elevator. It is approximately 540 square feet with wood floors throughout and a large window wall that lets the sun and light come in all day long. Because it is so quiet, you can open the large windows and enjoy a nice breeze on these hot summer days.
The apartment has one bedroom with an oversize queen bed, a newly updated bathroom with a bathtub/shower, a living room with a comfortable sofa bed that sleeps two, a kitchen with a bar area and equipped with dishwasher, microwave, electrical stove, fridge and freezer. Free internet access via Wi-Fi, Free calls to the US and major countries worldwide, Satellite TV.
If you are a budget conscious traveler who does not want to compromise on comfort and location, look no further - this is the place for you !

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 1999
We are Isabelle and Jerome - middle age French couple who live in the United States. We own several properties in Paris. This one is great for a couple with 2 children. We use it when the two of us come to Paris because it is so convenient and nice.
Why the Owner Chose Paris Arrondissement 16
We use this nice apartment when we visit Paris ourselves. We love the fact that it is so close to everything with direct buses and metros to the major touristic areas in Paris - yet is away from the crowded places and remains truly Parisian.
The Unique Benefits of this Apartment
We love the window wall with the sun shine through and the quietness of the apartment. The metro is at the foot of the building so it makes it very easy and fast to go direct to the Champs Elysees, the Eiffel tower or the Latin quarter. A 5 minutes walk takes you to the Village d'Auteuil, a typical Parisian area where you can find all the French delicassies. The area is very safe and not as busy and overwhelming as other more touristy parts of the city. This is the true Paris.

This apt. was everything you could ask for in cleanliness, comfort and convenience. Located on a quiet street, steps away from a great bakery, and only a short walk to complete shopping. The Metro stop is just moments away and if buses are preferred, there is a bus stop just outside the apt. as well as another busline which we used extensively, just a short walk away. Although you probably would not be preparing banquets, the kitchen is well enough equipped for light cooking. The only thing I would suggest to the owner would be to put better lighting in the bedroom for reading in bed. We were totally satisfied with this apartment and will surely use it again in the near future.

Our family (2 adults and 2 children) stayed in this apartment for ten (10) days last July, during our vacation. Even though we were out enjoying the sights in Paris throughout most of the day, whenever we returned to the apartment it was a very nice experience. It is a very comfortable place and the bar style eat-in kitchen is perfect for breakfast. The apartment also comes equipped with video games for children, so ours were thrilled. The Metro station is just a 1-minute walk away, which makes moving to and from the apartment a very easy task. However, most of the times we chose to walk to further stations as this part of the 16th arrondissement is lovely and always plenty of things to see. There is a small grocery store down the street, several boulangeries within walking distance and various restaurants. The weekly market is only a 5-minute walk away. This apartment was truly a wonderful find and we highly recommend it to any couple or small family that looks for a refined, peaceful and very-well placed location to visit Paris.

We recently returned from a trip to Paris and spent a week staying in this apartment. It was the perfect location, in a quiet residential neighbourhood, away from the busy action of the city, but easy to get to. The Metro station is half a block from the front door and it's an hour walk to the Eifel Tower if you feel energetic. There are shops, restaurants and a fresh market on Wednesdays and Saturdays within 10 minutes. A perfect home away from home.
