“We had a wonderful time and loved staying in the apartment. The period furnishings and antiques were exquisite. The cleanliness was excellent. We enjoyed staying in a neighborhood and experiencing Paris life. We would heartily recommend this option as opposed to a hotel any day."

"We stayed in the Chardonnay apartment in March and everything was just great. We loved the neighborhood, it was quiet at night, but we like that, so it worked out well for us. We walked to the Eiffel Tower a bunch of times since it was right there, and loved the proximity to the Supermarche on Saint Dominque. We cooked in for breakfast and dinner and found what we needed in the apartment to do so. I would definitely rent again from Paris Perfect, they made everything a breeze."

"We stayed at Chardonnay from June 16-23 2011. The apartment was wonderfully located and beautifully decorated. As soon as we arrived (from australia!!) and oohed and ahhed over the apartment, we headed to Rue Cler to stock up on fresh fruit and treats. Chardonnay was perfect in every way, the apartment was gorgeous, clean, beautiful, safe and secure, the location was wonderful and the neighbourhood so friendly and easy to get around to all the sights in Paris. Our two children loved it as well. The neighbours in the other apartments in the building were friendly and quiet, we felt almost like locals after a week there! We will definitely return. I cannot recommend paris perfect highly enough, they provided free calls to landlines in most countries (our home in australia for example), they called to check how we were doing, they left very detailed and interesting information, they were lovely. We miss Paris very much especially our wonderful Chardonnay - and also Christian Constant's restaurant close by and I had my hair cut as well by the hairdresser recommended in the manual. He spoke no english and my french is poor, but we got on fine! Thank you paris perfect for a perfect stay."

“Our recent visit to Paris was our second visit during which we stayed in an apartment offered by Paris Perfect. Both experiences were wonderful! The apartments are comfortable, clean, well equipped, and in great locations for visitors to Paris. We were very comfortable in the apartment after days of long walks in the city, and we were very gratified by the assistance we received from the local office in finding our way around! The apartments are close to Metro stations, open markets, great restaurants, and enticing shops. In sum, we now can't imagine staying anywhere in Paris except in a Paris Perfect apartment."

"From the very first call I made to "Paris Perfect" to this last review, everyone has been very corteous, professional and very enthusiastic. I went with three ladies to celebrate my 60th. birthday and thanks to "Paris Perfect" it was a memorable occasion. The apartment was outstanding , the service and even their reccomendation of "Victor" taxi services were excellent. I can only say that in my behalf and of my friends thank you!"

I" have visited Paris over 20 times in the past 30 years, staying in everything from hostels and hotels, to bed and breakfasts and apartments and I will have to say that the Chardonnay Apartment is by far the best place and location I have ever stayed at! The Chardonnay Apartment is ideally situated in the 7th, 2 blocks from the Champs de Mars and close to everything and anything a visitor to Paris needs and wants (not to mention great restaurants and neighborhood shops - the perfect place for a foodie). The apartment is fabulously and exquisitely furnished with no detail overlooked. It is spacious, comfortable and beautiful. I highly recommend staying in the Chardonnay Apartment and I will definitely stay here again."

“This is our 3rd apartment that we've stayed in with Paris Perfect and as usual, we had a wonderful stay! It was very quaint and comfortable for our family with 2 adults and our children ages 13,11 and 4. Loved the location- a 5 minute walk to the Eiffel Tower and park, a 10 minute walk to the Rue Cler where we bought fresh produce everyday to bring back to our fully equipped kitchen. There were a ton of great restaurants nearby- loved Christian Constant, and Cafe du Marche and Tribeca on the Rue Cler (don't bother with the Italian and French restaurant with the red awning on the corner of Bourdannais before you cross over to Dominique-neither were very good). The nearby boulangeries were incredible- we bought fresh baguettes everyday and chocolate eclairs (The first one on Rue St. Dominique was our favorite!)The Pont D'Alma station was a 5 minute walk with a direct line to Notre Dame and also to Versaille, which was so convenient. My daughter and I loved shopping on the Rue De Commerce, which was recommended in the apartment guide, and it was one of the best shopping streets in Paris for real people! We've been to Paris now the last 8 years in a row and would not consider staying anywhere else other than a Paris Perfect apartment- their staff and the information they provide is the best."

“We just returned from our wonderful stay in Paris. We are so glad we stayed in a Paris Perfect apt. The location was great We could walk around our neighborhood and get breakfast, pick up food for lunch and return for a relaxing dinner. A couple of blocks to the Metro and we went everywhere easily. The apt has all appliances and we appreciated the internet use and the washer/dryer and iron. We also highly recommend the cooking class at Le Violon - it was so much fun. "

“This was our first time taking our two daughters 9 and 11 to Paris. The apartment was the the way to go! We loved the location. The apartment was nicely furnished with very comfortable beds and bedding. The girls especially loved having the Eiffel tower right in clear view. The manual that is left in the apartment by the team is so helpful. We felt a bit like true Parisians that week. We would definitely go back to this apartment. I would most likely want to rent one with two toilets but the location of this one can't be beat. Thank for having us!"

The [Chardonnay] apartment was delightful. You thought of every convenience one has at home (and then some). Chardonnay is filled with beautiful antiques and beautiful PARIS light! It is in a terrific neighborhood filled with excellent restaurants and shopping, and is a wonderful 'walking' neighborhood.”

“Thanks Paris Perfect for a memorable visit to the City of Light! The apartment was just right for our family of four plus Grandma. Clean, bright, and comfortable. It was a classic Parisian apartment according to local friends who came to visit. We felt like true residents by the end of the week, getting comfortable with the neighborhood and shopping at the G-20 and the Rue Cler market. The recommendations in your guide helped us have an even better experience. The weather was perfect also. Did you do that too? Just a great time - we hope to return soon!”

Chardonnay provided the perfect "home" for my family in Paris. This was our fourth time in Paris but the first time we stayed in an apartment, which made our trip so much more enjoyable. The location was unbeatable, right next to the Eiffel Tower and the Champ du Mars, where we enjoyed picnics and night time strolls. Even better than the location was the apartment itself. The furnishings and decor were simply breathtaking - it felt like we were transported to an apartment within a royal château. The sconces on the walls were elegant, the dining room table had a beautiful wood-carved base, the sofa looked like it came from a French palace, and a side table had beautiful miniatures painted on the drawers. The blue and gold colors of the apartment gave it an open and airy feel, and the blue designer fabric of the curtains, seat cushions and sofa were all perfectly coordinated. We actually inquired about where the furniture came from and were told that the owners had spent weeks meticulously selecting each piece from the Paris auction house. No wonder it was so lovely! We also were so pleased with the kitchen, which I had been worried would be difficult to use. Instead, it was just like being in my kitchen at home: the appliances are Miele and there are Grohe fixtures. The bathrooms and kitchen also had modern granite and stone countertops. We cooked a few nights and had a great time. Chardonnay has been our best find in Paris and we're looking forward to coming back next summer! Thank you so much for such a luxurious yet comfortable stay.”Grace - Friday, August 14th 2009

Merci beaucoup for an absolutely wonderful stay in Paris! My family and I could not have been more elated with the Chardonnay apartment. Staying in Chardonnay was an extraordinary experience and truly made our trip unforgettable. Chardonnay was a very generous size and easily accommodated my family of 5.We never imagined waking up to a view of the Eiffel Tower from our balcony and the gardens in the Champ de Mars!Chardonnay's superb location in the 7th arrondissement allowed my family and me to fully take advantage of Paris' extensive public transportation system, as the buses and the Pont de Alma metro stop were only footsteps away.Anything we could ever need could be found within minutes of Chardonnay, including the wonderful market at Rue Cler.Chardonnay was beautifully appointed with antique furnishings and modern appliances and pieces that blended perfectly. I could go on forever about Chardonnay, but will try and just highlight my family's favorite parts (which will be very difficult!) The gold French antique daybed in the living room was exquisite, and also extremely comfortable; one of my favorite napping spots! My daughter was equally delighted with antique wash basin in the powder room. We were all charmed by the second bedroom with its unique European pull-down bed and custom drapes (which could be easily released to give sleepers more privacy). During the day (when we pulled up the bed) we relished this room as a reading room and second living room. My absolute favorite part of Chardonnay were the huge French windows in the living and dining room that opened onto the balcony. I loved being able to open them to step out onto the balcony and enjoy the gorgeous view of the Champ de Mars and Eiffel Tower. We all agreed that the decor and furnishings made us feel liked true Parisians.I appreciated being able to prepare a full meal for my family in the newly refurbished kitchen, and I was thrilled by the beautiful Nespresso machine provided for our use. I was thrilled with the extensive Parisian themed DVDcollection that entertained my entire family.Merci again for providing such a wonderful apartment for my family and me. We look forward to returning to our "home away from home" next summer, and will be sure to share this treasure with our family and friends.”Marielle Christine and family - Washington, D.C. - Wednesday, August 5th 2009

We took our two teenage daughters with us and stayed in this apartment. It worked out very well for us. The girls enjoyed the views and the area that we were in. We felt veery safe in allowing them to do some things on their own. The apartment had everything, and more, than we might have expected. The Paris Perfect team just could not have been better. They went out of their way to be helpful. We did our share of walking. It was fun to be able to walk to so many places and sights to see. We did the markets, we were often on rue Cler and checking out all the local shops. We found many great restaurants and also enjoyed being able to sit outside and just people watch. Thank you for everything. Nice memories for us. We hope to return! All the Bonds.
