Charming duplex in the heart of Montmartre with top view of Paris

The view is spectacular! The location can’t be beat. Martine is one of the best hosts I have ever had the pleasure to deal with! Her home is like living in a French dream, (although the couches aren’t too comfy after a long day out). A note is that she has a cat and if you have an allergy or sensitivity you will want to know that. The cat is not there in the apartment during your stay but it does leave behind some allergens. That said Martine was so gracious she was even willing to refund a portion of the stay if we had to move out early. We did not, but just the fact that she was willing made our experience even better. There’s a lot of stairs to bring up a suitcase but it’s worth the view and charm of the apartment! The beds were comfortable, the WCs flushed well, the kitchen (whole house) is clean and easy to use. My mom and I felt like we were living at home, and Martine was a family member away for a few days. If you haven’t spent time in Montmartre- you need to stay at Martine’s place and enjoy this village within the city. If Martine will host us again, we will return. A tres bientot!

The property is old (read: historic) and provides a wonderfully romantic, old world charm that remains with me even after returning to US. I highly recommend, and would stay here again, and again.

Charming and spacious with spectacular views

Martine, the owner of this lovely, spacious apartment, was a very nice and easy person to work with, and I'm so glad we rented her apartment for our two-week stay in Paris.

My daughter and I met in Paris to celebrate her birthday and enjoyed every day in the beautiful City of Lights. I've stayed in other Paris arrondissements over the years, however, I thought my daughter would enjoy the Montmartre area because of all the fun local shopping, bistros, sightseeing, etc. This two-level apartment is literally just stairsteps away from the Sacre-Couer and Place du Tertre, two very popular areas for locals and tourists. Another advantage is that it's close to Abbessess metro that can take you anywhere in Paris.

The apartment was clean and well stocked; the washer and dryer were easy to use; there was a nice large TV with tons of CDs and DVDs but we didn't take the time to watch TV because we had a nice view of the city from the living room area; it was quiet at night, very welcome after a long day of sightseeing and shopping; the two bedrooms were spacious and it was convenient to have two toilet rooms, one on each floor. When renting an apartment in the Montmartre area, the highest in Paris, do prepare yourself for lots of step climbing; this is why Parisians stay fit!

I definitely recommend this apartment for two to four people.

The apartment is clean & spacious with a great city view, within meters of the Sacre Coeur. There are many steps but that is the nature of Montmartre. There are many local restaurants to choose from (the better ones being around Rue Des Abbesses). The owner is very helpful & friendly. We highly recommend this apartment.
