In a pedestrian street near a rose garden, the area is extremely safe day and night and the apartment is comfortable, quiet and surrounded by nature (very soundless and peaceful when you need some rest). You will feel like in a peaceful village without any noise of cars or people and at the same time you will be located in the heart of old Paris at 200 meters from the famous Place des Vosges.

Measuring 30 square meters, the apartment is located conveniently on the first floor of a quiet building with access code and safe guards.

The interior features parquet floors and elegant track lighting and provides a very comfortable 160x200 bed that folds out and a nice dressing with large mirrors.
In the fully-equipped kitchen with real Italian marble, glass table and double deep metal sinks, you will find everything you may need to cook gourmet French meals : a nice and big oven, a tactile cooking table, toaster, refrigerator and microwave.
Do not bring huge luggages and too many clothes, a washer and dryer is available for you in the apartment.

The living room has a desk with a laptop connected to Internet (WIFI available). Phone calls on wired and mobile phones are offered internationally. You will also enjoy the 37" LCD TV cabled to English and American channels and linked to a DVD player.

This apartment also offers a very romantic bathroom with a bath Jacuzzi without jets but a powerful shower.

Windows open onto a very private central green garden with birds and trees, and without access from outside. Thanks to the large window the apartment is very bright.

The Place des Vosges (Vosges' square) lies in the heart of the fashionable Marais district, where are the famous beautiful paintings museums Carnavalet, Cognay Jay, and Picasso. The Marais also features an homogeneous square design, lovely arcades, and plenty of nice art galleries around peaceful and refreshing gardens.

The apartment is an ideal starting point for a visit to the Marais district or shopping in the rue des Francs-Bourgeois near-by. The nearest metro stations are Chemin Vert on line 8 and Saint-Paul on line 1. Leaving the apartment, you can also reach on foot the Pompidou center (15 minutes), the Bastille opera (five minutes), or the Notre-Dame cathedral (15 minutes), Le Louvre (15 minutes), Opéra (20 minutes), Champs-Elysées (25 minutes), all of them very pleasant walks.
To help you during your stay, more than 15 different guidebooks on Paris are at your disposal in the apartment with France and metro lines maps.

Finally, be sure that the owner will do everything to help you preparing your vacation or when arrived in Paris (please don't forget to read guest comments).

    Dear Didier Your apartment was a wonderful place to stay during our trip to Paris. It was very well equiped and centrally located. We were able to reach fantastic restaurants by foot and it was easy to get to and from the Gare du Nord. Thank you very much for everything, including your warm welcome and for reserving Georges Restaurant for us (it was very good and worth every penny!) Kind regards Denise & Edward

    Hi Didier – We did indeed make it home safely. Thank you so much for accommodating us during our stay. The apartment was wonderful and we had an amazing time in your lovely city (even though we almost died several times on the bikes :-). Good luck to you with your business and your life – hopefully we will see you again on our next visit! Thanks – Nate

    Bonjour Didier, We are very well and hope you and your family are enjoying the summer. My feedback of choosing your apartment is as follows: 1. The location--Marais area is where we wanted to be. It is close to everything (groceries, shopping) and especially the train, which meant we could travel anywhere in Paris quickly. 2. The pedestrian street was definitely what sold us. Hard to find in Paris. Your apartment was so quite and very, very safe yet just a short walk away from the Metro. 3. The price--you have one of the best prices considering you charge a small security deposit. Most other apartments I looked at were charging in excess of 500-100 euro for security deposit in addition to a 900-1200-- euro rental fee for the 1 week. 4. The ease of how we could pay you--very simple. Make a deposit on PayPal and we were booked. The rest was to come in cash. 5. Your personal service--very hard to find. We have travelled alot and it was such a pleasure to deal directly with you to address any questions and then to meet you in person and have you explain how everything in your apartment worked. The directions you provided to find your place were perfect. We have never had such an easy time flying into a major airport, catching a taxi and then arriving at our destination to unpack and then start touring Paris. WOW! There is alot to be said about this and the lack of stress. This is so valuable and greatly appreciated. 6. The equipment was an added bonus and not what sells us as we aren't there too often. However, with this said it definitely spoiled us and having the laptop was excellent. We used it daily to check the weather and we were able to communicate back home. As well, being able to make an international call was fantastic, as I was able to quickly call home. This is something we will miss in other rentals. 7. Your site on VRBO is a true and honest reflection of your apartment and what we could expect. No surprises and EXACTLY what the pictures looked like and all details EXACTLY what we had. Such a pleasure to actually receive what you paid for. John & I would love to rent from you again when back in Paris. Warm regards from Canada, Cindy & John

  • What a fabulous find this apartment turned out to be. Close to all amenities,handy to Metro, walking distance to Bastille and Marais area. The apartment itself was very comfortable, clean and well serviced. We had reservations about the sofa bed but they were quickly dispelled as it was very comfortable to sleep on. Didier was the perfect host and was more than helpful with any enquiries we had. Many thanks, we would return to Place de Vosges if we come back to Paris.

  • We stayed at the apartment for 6 nights in mid-July, 2009 and found that it met our needs very nicely. The location is literally 5 minutes walk to the metro station and to the Place des Vosges. It is also easy walking distance to Marais shopping and restaurants. It is on the ground floor of a very nice building, with a window looking out on an enclosed grass courtyard. It is extremely quiet at all hours. Although we did not cook much at the apartment because we wanted to go out, the kitchen is well-equipped. The bathroom is very nice and large by Paris standards. It was very useful to have the laptop computer at the apartment when we were there. Last but not least, Didier was extremely helpful.

  • It's a lovely place. We really enjoyed our stay. It make us feel like home away from home. The neighborhood is not touristy, make you feel like a local, a real Parisan. We highly recommend it.

  • My husband and I just spent two weeks in Didier's apartment (June/July) and we cannot say enough about this wonderful little find. Although it is small, it is a delightful place to stay- beautifully designed, clean, every amenity possible (including a laptop and phone!), comfortable and in the BEST location ever. The Marais is just an amazing place, we could have spent our entire stay in this area. We were initially concerned about the comfort of a pull-out sofa, but it turned out that this bed (queen sized) may be the most comfortable we've ever slept on. There is no shower, just a bath tub, but my husband just used the shower head (long cord) and was able to shower anyway. I loved the tub. We also loved the towel warmers! IT was very hot in Paris during part of our stay, but it never got hot in the apartment. Maybe this is because it's on the ground floor, or because the large windows open to a shaded private courtyard. The fan was all we needed when the temps were unusually hot for Paris. The best part of this apartment is the INCREDIBLE location (and very safe). You can walk out of the door and find a little park where children play and older people sit and read under the trees. It's so beautiful, and sooo French. The immediate area is filled with great little shops, cafes, the Place des Vosges!! and a boulangerie that is just the best. The metro stations are both very close, a hop, skip, and a jump. Lastly, Didier is such a delightful and very helpful young man whom we enjoyed getting to know. He is very responsive and really wants your stay in his apartment to be a comfortable and pleasant one. For us, it was just that, and more. If we come back to Paris, we will definitely stay here again. Merci Didier!

  • This apartment is perfectly located and very clean, comfortable and quiet. Didier is very professional and we found some of the extras in the apartment, like the laptop with internet, very convenient. I would definitely use this apartment again in the future.

  • We stayed at Didiers apartment for a quick 4 day break in May. We found Didier to be very helpful from our first enuiry right through to our departure. The apartment was very clean, homely and and well equipt. It was well laid out and the sofa bed was surprisingly large and very comfortable. The neighbourhood is very friendly and the rose garden was lovely to sit in and watch the world go by. We found all of the touristy sights were easy to get to on foot even though we weren't in a tourist area as such. I would definately reccomend this apartment.
