Map & Owner's Profile
Very Pretty, Quiet and Sunny Studio Near the Seine - Le Marais
Year Purchased: 2001
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 at 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.

I am French and my husband Steve is American. We live in San Diego, California where Steve practiced Neurology for 40 years. We have three grown up children. We go back to France fairly often and that is why we bought that wonderful little studio in Le Marais. We'd love to share it with you. Enjoy!!!

A Dream Come True

I have been to Paris 27 times in the past ten years, but my dream was to stay for a month and rent an apartment. I couldn't have made a better choice. The location is superb and safe for a woman alone. The apartment is clean, well maintained, and looks exactly as pictured. Alix has anticipated everything a traveler might need...and all this info is in a book. Additionally, things like tape, scissors, sewing kit are here. I especially appreciated the rolling shopping bag to do grocery shopping (like a native). All this and free phone calls and internet! I would return to this little gem in a heartbeat.

I recently stayed in this wonderful little studio apartment for the second year in a row. It is in a perfect location, just a 3 minute walk to the Seine, and the Ile St. Louis one of my favorite places in Paris. It has everything you need to be comfortable and enjoy your time in Paris. It has two large sets of windows that allow light to fill the apartment. I even left them wide open at night so I could hear the sounds of Paris. The futon sofa bed has me shopping around for one of my own; I slept so well on it. Don’t worry that you have to walk up a few floors to the apartment; it’s good exercise and very French. They think nothing of climbing stairs. Alix was wonderful and very attentive. I’m planning on renting the apartment again next summer, and hopefully for longer than just a week.

My husband and I returned in August to this apartment for the second year in a row, and were so happy to open the door and find our Paris pied-à-terre in great shape and ready to enjoy. We love this apartment because it has everything we need for a week in Paris, it is modern, bright, airy and well maintained, and is well situated near the Seine and near three Metro stations. Thierry, who manages the property, could not be more accommodating and helpful. We incorporate the fourth floor walk-up into our daily exercise regimen.

My wife and I were looking for a truly Parisian experience for our first ever visit to Paris and both your studio apartment and its location in the Marais made for a magicial time. We were virtually a stone's throw from Notre Dame, we loved listening to the bells each morning, we did not lack for finding a good restaurant just around any corner on our block and local transportation, including the batobus and bus #69 was a convenient short distance away. I should also mention that the farmer's market was also great on Saturdays. The apartment was small yet well appointed and had all the conveniences of being at home. What was especially nice was the clothes washer, the fresh flowers in our window boxes, free wifi, cable TV, the expresso maker and free phone calls to the States. Your kitchen was well equipped and allowed us to prepare some of our dinner meals within the unit. Staying in your unit exceeded all of our expectations and we were especially appreciative of all your effort to make our stay in Paris as enjoyable as we experienced. There is absolutely no way we could have found a more ideal place to stay in Paris. We would definitely return! Thank you so much.

Hello! We are nearing the end of our visit to Paris and our stay at your apartment. In fact, we are waiting the arrival of Kathy and Doug from London and will be seeing them later this afternoon. Alix, we have had an amazing trip. Your apartment has been a huge contribution to our Paris experience. We have loved everything and I'm really getting sad to leave. This is a lively corner of the world! We've seen a movie filmed; they've re-paved the road; there's been a high security event at Memorial de La Shoa; we've had hot weather and cool rain! I'm so used to hearing the buses outside and the bells chiming. I will miss the neighborhood so much. As you said, this has been a trip of a lifetime. We are treasuring our last few days. Thank you so much for everything! Andrea

I loved my Paris home. It was so easy to explore Paris. I walked everywhere and got an excellent lay of the land. The area around the apartment has all the services you need and you are only steps away from the Seine. Loved hearing the church bells. Apartment is very comfortable and easily connected to metro which is also easy to use for arrivals and departures.

A Grreat Location

We loved the location. It's a 10 minute walk to Notre Dame and 2 minutes to the river. The proximity to rue de Rivoli made it convenient for shopping. This wonderfully quiet neighborhood, so close to such storied sights almost made me feel like a local. The apartment is well appointed, the kitchen and bathroom organized and quiet adequate. We even enjoyed the four story climb up the winding staircase and would collapse in a giggling heap at the door. Alix was responsive when we had an issue (so minor that I can't remember what it was now) and Thierry was gracious and showed us the ropes. I will recommend your apartment Alix, and hope to rent it again - may that be soon! .

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay In this delightful studio! We found it's location to be perfect for our time in Paris. We loved the pretty decorating and just everything about it showed attention to detail and how much the owners wanted us to have a wonderful time while on vacation. I cannot say enough about the bed, we found that after a busy day of beautiful Paris the bed was the perfect place to mend our tired backs and feet. We had fun cooking in the kitchen and it was so easy to become comfortable with our neighborhood. We found that the staircase is needed to work off the baguette chocolat viennoise that we both enjoy way too much! If you are looking for the perfect place to stay while in Paris this is it!

This studio apartment was perfect for our one and a half week stay in Paris. It's located on a quiet street just a few blocks from the Seine and ile St. Louis in one direction and, in another, the trendy shops and restaurants in the Marais along the Vieille du Temple. Easy walk to the Metro. The apartment itself was comfortable and well equipped. Nice views from the front windows as well. Owners were a joy to deal with. I could go on and on but you can't go wrong with this very nice apartment.

We found this apartment and its location to be ideal for a recently-married couple. We loved the proximity to EVERYTHING. If we wished to be "tourists", the short walk to the Isles was magical. If we wished to be "locals", the nearby eateries and shopping were equally convenient. There are many wonderful secrets to be discovered right in the neighborhood, and then to go farther afield, Metro stations were easily accessible. The apartment is well-appointed and the location carries the perfect balance of quiet nights and the calming sounds of a city side street during the day.
