“Pad A Terre is unique on the Paris apartment rental scene”. TRAVEL AGENT MAGAZINE

Of British origin, I founded my company ‘Pad A Terre’ in 1999 as an alternative to 4-5 star Paris hotels for a discerning clientele seeking more space for less yet no compromise on their usual standards of comfort. Our unique offer, consistent commitment to professional business practice standards and service, strict adherence to market regulations ensure us a nice position in the high-end segment of a mass Paris’s vacation rental sector.

Partnership with Homeaway/VRBO since 2003.

We are a French Registered company.

All properties covered by the PARIS TOWN HALL VACATION RENTAL LICENCE (a legal requirement in Paris).

I personally own all apartments within our portfolio. We are not an agency that makes money out of commissions that you pay. We operate on an owner direct basis.

“The Louvre apartment, as the name suggests is a stone’s throw from Paris’ most famous art gallery.” THE INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY (UK)

The apartment is located in the heart of historical Paris.  The penthouse of a 17th Century timbered building, it comprises a drawing room with dining area, master bedroom, 2nd bedroom and fully equipped separate kitchen.   Arranged over three floors, it very much has the feel of a private house.  The apartment can sleep up to 7 people (5 beds).

“The apartment has been sumptuously decorated and restored sympathetically keeping all of its original beams and charming historic touches”. TRAVEL AGENT MAGAZINE

An original 17th century wooden staircase leads up to the living areas, beamed drawing room (elegant 18th Century mirror) and separate kitchen: fully equipped, Siemens high-end oven, Miele washer/drier. All utensils are provided to ensure the most enthusiastic chefs amongst you can eat in if you choose

A second staircase leads up to the 2 bedrooms, and Philippe Starck designer bathroom (installed 2015).  The bedroom's skylight (blackout blinds for restful sleep) offers views of the neighbouring St. Eustache Church.  Solid bleached oak parquet flooring throughout.

“The property is bright, well appointed and fully equipped with all the modern comforts”. TRAVEL AGENT MAGAZINE

My business objective remains the same since 1999: to create comfortable accommodations, on a par with elegant boutique hotels, in enviable locations, that offer excellent value for money.

All bed and bath linens of the highest quality of Egyptian cotton. Beds offer the highest level of comfort.

“You will appreciate the chance to live like locals in authentic neighbourhood settings”.
THE INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY (UK)

You will love exploring the area’s fabulous outdoor produce markets (in the rue Montmartre, Thursdays, Sundays), artisanal boutiques, troving the epicurean riches while shopping the French way.

The area is jam packed with fantastic restaurants and cafés. ‘Le Comptoir de la Gastronomie’ serves the best foie gras ravioli you will ever have. At least according to VOGUE MAGAZINE, and me!

A stone's throw from the Louvre and the Seine, you cannot beat the central location of the apartment. The neighbouring pedestrian Quartier Montorgueil embodies the essence of authentic Parisian life. One of the capital's most colourful market streets.

We have featured in many leading international publication over the years:

THE BOSTON GLOBE (USA)

“Pad A Terre offerings make you want to pack up and move to Paris immediately.”

THE INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY

“Immerse yourself in Parisian chic in Pad A Terre’s ‘Louvre’ bolt-hole.

Judge for yourselves.

Not as advertised!!!!
Note: My review keeps being deleted, so I am reposting it: We stayed at the "two bedroom" Louvre penthouse. According to the listing: "The apartment is located in the heart of historical Paris. The penthouse of a 17th Century timbered building, it comprises a drawing room with dining area, master bedroom, 2nd bedroom and fully equipped separate kitchen. Arranged over three floors, it very much has the feel of a private house. The apartment can sleep up to 7 people (5 beds)." First of all, it is a cramped, tiny 2-story STUDIO with a loft and a tiny room adjacent to the loft space that can hardly be called a bedroom. There is one queen-sized bed on the second floor and, in the tiny room behind it, a twin bed and a cot crammed next to it. So, TWO beds and a cot and a fold-out sofa bed in the living room. The main thing to note is there is NO PRIVACY if you have children, as it is really a studio. Please also note there is no microwave and not even a real refrigerator, only a mini-fridge that smells terrible. Also, one of the windows has no shade so prepare to wake up early! And the bathroom window is broken so when you open it, it falls off. The listing also claims there is a clothes dryer, coffee maker, elevator, desk, desk chair, printer, high chair, and gym access. None of these things is true. If I could give this place negative stars, I would.

Great Location & Wonderful Property!
This property is fantastic for families or couples looking to visit Paris. We had 2 adults and 3 children and fit well with the accommodations. Its location is fantastic - within walking distance of the Louvre, Notre-Dame, Sant Chappelle and a two minute walk to one of the main metro stations in all of Paris. We were able to get anywhere in the city within 10-15 minutes. In addition, the neighborhood and streets immediately next to the property have a myriad of shops and restaurants that make finding local cuisine very easy. Overall it was a fantastic experience and a property we would recommend to stay at.

Great service and flat
James, We loved staying at your apartment near the Louvre. Your service was top notch! Thanks again for your understanding with the lost key. If we find the keys in my husband’s laundry I will mail to you. We will definitely book with you in the future and recommend Pad a Terre to friends!
