Exceptional Value, Bright, Spacious, Clean and centrally located, our guests have raved about this apartment ever since we opened 4 years ago.( Please browse Guest Comments to see for yourself) This gorgeous one-bedroom apartment of 55 square meters (600 sq. ft.) has undergone a complete renovation recently. It is located on rue Beranger, in the Third Arrondissement at the Place de la Republique, in the heart of Paris. Place de la Republique is a lively and bustling plaza with supermarkets, pharmacies, taxi stands, restaurants and everything else. Metro Republique is just steps away and is a hub for 4 metro lines, so you can reach any point of Paris with a short ride away.

Our concierge, Philippe, will personally greet you soon after your arrival. He is a charming young Parisian who speaks impeccable English, and will be glad to answer any questions you may have during your stay. Please do partake his intimate knowledge of Paris and I'm sure that you'll be impressed by his friendliness and personal attention.

If you dread the idea of schlepping your suitcases up a flight of narrow stairs as much as I do, then this ground floor apartment is ideal for you. ...and if you're a bit claustrophobic staying in a typical Paris hotel or studio/loft apartment (read tiny), then you'll appreciate the spaciousness and the high ceiling of this one. This apartment is located behind not one but two interior courtyards, so it's an oasis of calm amidst the hustle and bustle of the city. It is very safe as there is always plenty of shoppers and restaurant-goers about even quite late in the evening.

We've renovated this apartment by gutting it to bare walls and then rebuilt it tile by tile. It was done with the American traveller in mind, so it has all the comforts and conveniences you'd expect in a luxurious American apartment... the separate kitchen has a microwave , a full sized refrigerator, dishwasher, 4 cook tops with oven, washer/ dryer as well as an eat-in area. The living room has a sleeper-sofa that folds out to sleep 2, an arm-chair that folds out to sleep one, telephone, DSL Internet access and cable TV with plenty of channels including CNN and BBC, so that you may keep up-to-date with the news and sports back home. The price is all inclusive, including the linens, so you won't get a surprise at the end of your trip.

The bedroom retains all the charms of a 19th Century mansion, with crown mouldings, fireplace, stain glass windows, 10 ft. ceiling, and original parquet floor. It has a queen-size bed and lots of closet space. In the tiled bathroom you can pamper yourself with a walk-in shower or a separate tub. This apartment can easily accommodate four persons. Please feel free to browse "Guest Comments" below to get a feel of the apartment and get answers to some of the questions you may have. For your comfort, this is a SMOKE-FREE apartment. Children under ten years of age allowed with the permission of the owner.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE PRICES QUOTED ARE IN AMERICAN DOLLARS. (EXCEPT FOR CONCIERGE CHARGE TO BE PAID IN PARIS)

Why the Owner Chose Paris Arrondissement 3

We love all of Paris but we are especially enchanted with Marais, with its many small boutiques, restaurants, one-of-a-kind stores. The apartment is within walking distance of the center of Marias, but is also close to the Metro Republique, where 5 metro lines intersect. It is therefore a hop and a scotch to all Paris.

 

Owner's Map of Paris Arrondissement 3

My wife and I fell in love with Paris the first time we visited in 1986, and ever since then, we have come back again and again to this magical city. We decided to buy an apartment in 2004. After several months of intense work, we were able to call our little corner of Paris home.

    • Our 5 day stay in 21 Rue Beranger apartment was delightful. It is roomy, kept spotless, well stocked (prior guests leave all sorts of goodies in the kitchen), terribly convenient because of Place Republique's many metro lines, and it's ground floor location saves many steps and dragging suitcases up narrow spiral staircases. Books, videos, and all instructions in English made the stay more pleasant. And loved the quiet. One evening a full rock concert was going on a block away and we didn't hear a thing. Also a wonderful Monoprix around the corner with all sorts of gourmet fixings for meals at home. Would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others.

    • We just returned from a lovely stay at 21 Rue Beranger. The apartment was the perfect spot for my family. It was clean, safe and quite comfortable. Philippe was so kind and informative. Our young daughters cried when we had to leave our Paris Home.It was the perfect location in the Northern Marais,we loved the shops and easy access to the Metro. I would highly recommend this lovely apartment to anyone visiting Paris.

    • Spent a week at the apartment in March.It is exactly as shown in pictures. Lovely! We found it very convienent to all of Paris! The weather in March was mild and the lines at all attaractions were ZERO! The furniture is comfortable, kitchen well equipped,previous guests- as well as us- leave all kinds of cooking items for your pleasure. After touring all day, we did eat dinner in about 3 nites- and always breakfast and coffee.Philippe is a wealth of knowledge,and arrived our first night on a bicycle in a full Morning Suit! (from his regular job at the opera) Looked so cute I only wish I had taken his picture!The neighbors all speak English and are helpful too.Very quiet and safe!We used Parisshuttle to get door to door service from CDG.80USD r/t for 2. Got a weekly metro card for unlimited use on all transportation for 21euros each- Really a great location.I had a recent hip replacement and found the apt to work well for me. Our only disappointment was that the cptr.was older and not able to send emails home- was able to recieve them though, and it worked as far as looking up train schedules etc.Used a calling card from home to call- just as I could anywhere. Apartment is spotlessly clean as well. I have told everyone what a great deal this is- and now I'm telling YOU! Go for it! I hope to return again soon.

    • We just returned from having stayed in your apartment for 2 weeks in January 09. It was one of the most wonderful experiences that we have had in all our travels. Everything was in perfect order and well appointed in every detail. The location was perfect for getting around on the Metro. The shops nearby were excellent and our favorite stop each morning was at the Boulangerie and Patisserie for cappuccino and croissants while making friends with the owner's little dog, Le Pardo. Staying in this apartment made the trip to Paris a first-class experience! We'll definitely want to return.

    • We just returned from a week in Paris and I wanted to say how much we enjoyed the apartment. It was bigger than expected and everything was well equipped and very clean. The apartment was very conveniently located with the subway just around the corner. Once we figured out the subway we went everywhere in Paris. The Monoprix was a 2 min. walk and I found the prices for food to be quite reasonable. Lots of information about Paris in the apartment. This apt. is a true gem and we'll definitely rent it again. My daughter & I did some clothes shopping in Paris and I found a store called AT (Armand Thiery) lovely clothes with good prices. My daughter shopped at the shopping mall, Les Halles, and had good success. We also took a double-decker bus tour and this was a good idea because we didn't have alot of time in Paris. Again, we'll certainly rent this apt. again.

    • We spent 2 weeks in Paris and found the apartment very convenient for visiting Notre Dame, all the museums, etc. The metro is right on the corner. The apartment is quiet, safe, spacious and bright. We are already looking forward to rent in 2 years. Tina Ruiz, Michigan

    • I checked out many Paris apartments online before choosing this one. It appeared to be, by far, the best value. We wondered whether it could be as nice as described for the price and we were a little concerned that it seemed more out of the central area than many. We were pleasantly surprised. The apartment is large by European standards and it is very well equipped. The laptop computer and DSL connection was a great amenity. The location turned out to be perfect for getting around to all of Paris as the Republique Metro station is less than one block away and you can go anywhere in the city from there. We enjoyed being in a Paris neighborhood rather than in the middle of the major tourist areas. Although it was a very busy traffic area, once inside the courtyard, all the street noise disappeared. We enjoyed the peace and quiet of the apartment building after a day in the busy city. As it turns out, the apartment is not out of the thick of things at all. We found ourselves able to walk to many areas that I thought we would need to take a bus or Metro to. You might not want to cook with all the great restaurants available but if you do, the apartment has most everything you would need. A few blocks away is an incredible market called MonoPrix and in the other direction on Rue de Bretagne there are wonderful shops with fresh meat, seafood, vegetables and cheese. I wished we had found this street earlier in our stay. Check out the binder in the apartment. There are some good restaurants not far. Try Chez Janou. The owner is very responsive. He provided great communication during the process and we received our deposit back several days after our return. Philippe, the concierge is very helpful and responsive as well. We emailed each other several times during our stay to get advice. He helped make restaurant reservations for us in French. I might be tempted to try another part of town on my next visit although I think I would be hard-pressed to find such a great deal. I’ll probably find myself staying here again and I’d be happy to do it.

    • This apartment was an incredible value! Centrally-located, with two metro stations mere steps away. It was quite comfortable for four people. We would not hesitate to recommend this apartment and look forward to returning again someday.

    • This terrific and quiet apartment was a wonderful landing place for our family of four. The neighborhood is safe and within walking distance of the Bastille and Pompidou Museum. The apartment is just around the corner from a metro station where a number of lines connect, so the whole city is one or two trains away. Our children (ages 11 and 14) were comfortable in the living room with two pull-out couches. The apartment is an excellent value, and we would happily spend another week in this apartment.

    • My two sisters and myself stayed in NOvember during the transit strike. It was conveniently located a 30-40 min walk from the Seine(Louvre etc) When the metro was running again it was just minutes via the Metro. Phillipe, the concierge was very helpful with directions both walking and with the metro. The apt. was extremely comfortable and well equipped.We would definitely stay there again.
