Owner's Profile

Owner Description

Year Purchased: 2001

I am French and my husband Steve is American. We live in San Diego, California where Steve practiced Neurology for 40 years. We are going back to France fairly ofteen and that is the reason why we bought that wonderful little studio in Le Marais.

Why the Owner Chose Paris Arrondissement 4

Le Marais is really a prime area for tourism, convenience and beauty. We instantly loved that apartment because it is so pretty and full of light. The street is secure, the neighborhood exciting, and we can walk almost everywher in Paris from this very central place.

The Unique Benefits of this Apartment

Love to come home late at night through a well lit street. The little cafe at the bottom of the building insure that there are always a few people around. Since it is on the 4th floor, the street noise is very muffled.

    • The apartment owned by the Steckers is simply in the perfect location. The Marais is wonderful for shopping and many sights: Notre Dame, Hotel De Ville, Seine river and many others are all within walking distance. It is also close to two metro stations. (St Paul & Hotel De Ville) I without a doubt will stay again when I return to Paris. Definitely recomended!

    • The Steckers own a wonderful studio apartment in the Marais, they are fantastic hosts and I will not hesitate to stay there again the next time I am in Paris. The location in the Marais is an atmospheric, convenient and delightful part of Paris. There are shops, markets, museums, restaurants, sights, Metro and bus stations -- all close by. The Seine is a few blocks away. Exploring and getting to know the neighborhood was one of the best parts of my trip. The Marais is a unique neighborhood in Paris. The studio is charming, with its fold-out queen bed, a perfect size for a couple or someone traveling by themselves. Hearing the bells of the church nearby through the courtyard behind the building is a wonderful experience. The kitchen is nicely equipped, and for breakfasts and the (admittedly rare) times I ate a lunch or dinner at the apartment, it works very well. Thierry who manages the apartment in Paris is caring and attentive and knowledgeable -- my thanks to him, his kind partner, and to the woman who cleaned the apartment so magnificently while I was there. Be prepared for stairs as you climb up to the apartment, but, hey, it is good for those glutes after all the baguettes and amazing French food you will eat on your trip, yes? I miss the studio, which means it became a home for me while I was in Paris. Alix, Stephen, Thierry and everyone will help you feel at home. Be prepared for a marvelous stay. I can honestly say it was worth every euro and then some, and I look forward to returning for another visit in the fall of 2009! Steven April in Paris 2008

    • We had a fabulous time in Paris. The apartment was in the best location we have ever stayed. You can walk to everything, and we did. Having the sunny retreat made the trip so much more relaxing and enjoyable. The well equiped kitchen was so nice for our breakfasts, and snacks. We finally could shop at the markets and have a place to bring goodies back to, the big wine glasses were nice too.

    • Our visit to Paris was fantastic and living at 21 Rue du Pont Louis-Phillip definietly added to our positive experience. We enjoyed eating fresh croissants from the bakery downstairs and sitting by the window in the morning to watch the city wake up. We explored much of Paris by foot and found this location to be an ideal starting point. We found new places to eat every day as there is no lack of restaurants in the Marais. It was a pleasure to stay in this cosy apartment and we would whole heartedly recommend it to anyone going to Paris. Dianne and Phil

      Dear Alix, please add this comment in the guestbook. We appreciated the privacy of the flat , the location , the helpful guidebooks , the movies , the wine , the access to everything , but mostly having somewhere to stay in Paris that feels like it is your own . We would love to stay again and hopefully we will, Helen Bennett

    • We had a wonderful time in France and absolutely loved your studio and the Marais. Jeanie aptly named this area the SoHo of Paris which reminded us of NYC. The weather was perfect, especially for Paris. This trip reinforced my pride in my French ancestry. We met so many friendly people in both Nice and Paris including Tierry who was most helpful and accomodating. We’ve already recommended it to our friends and acquaintances. Thank you

    • My teenage daughter and I spent a wonderful week in this apartment and are sad to have had to leave! The location is perfect - perhaps the best in Paris. We walked to the Marais, the Ile St. Louis, Notre Dame, and many other places. This is a real Parisian neighborhood with very few tourists so you really get a feel for what it would be like to live there. Many great restaurants, boulangeries, and ice cream shops are but an easy walk from this apartment. We will definitely stay here next time we vixit Paris!

    • I just spent a month (March/April 2007) in this charming apartment and did not want to leave! It offers excellent value for money in a perfect location. The apartment was well-maintained, quiet and exceptionally equipped (the espresso machine was a great bonus!). Walking distance to the wonderful Marais on one side and a block from the delightful Ile St Louis on the other - perfect! Several handy metro stations are also close by. Great kitchen for a studio, separated out from the main living room. The bathroom is small but perfectly clean and functional. It is a rare treat to have so much light, sun and air in a small apartment. Both the landlord and caretaker were exceptionally polite and helpful. Highly recommended.

    • Paul and I stayed in this delightful studio in September 2006. The location is superb,maybe 2/3 of a block from the Seine and a couple of blocks from 2 Metro stops.It is very clean, the appliances are new and the bed is very comfortable. The galley kitchen proved perfect for our evening meals. The owner is very accommodating and easy to reach. We always hope to return to Paris and we would gladly stay here again. Thank you, Alix!
