Wonderful apartment in great location

This is the second time I have stayed in this apartment and I can not recommend it highly enough. It’s in the perfect location to explore Paris and the apartment itself is wonderful. Quiet, clean and has all the amenities that one would need. The building is very secure and the owner is super responsive. Definitely would stay again.

Fabulous week in Paris !!

We just completed a wonderful week stay at this great apartment ! Total attention to all details . All began with being met early morning by the great housekeeper and then finding a charming well appointed apartment complete with fresh flowers and a bottle of champagne ! We will definitely return ! The building and the apartment felt totally secure and is the perfect left bank location . The owner was always very responsive to all my emails .

At home in Paris

From perfect location (central, quiet, safe and surrounded by beauty) to exquisite comfort (lots of space, high ceilings, functional kitchen and bathrooms) to outstanding decor (in elevated French style as befits the location) to thoughtful touches (magnifying makeup mirror, umbrellas, fans, ample waste containers), this property is best in class. The owner is incredibly helpful and proactive, offering excellent advice, ensuring smooth service and limiting gaffes from arrival through departure. The attention to detail shows and works to enable an experience of home that is unusual in a rental property.

Paris rental perfection

This rental was truly extraordinary. The location is unbelievably perfect - you can easily walk to most of the key sites in Paris - all within 5-10 minutes. Metro and bus access is very easy. Shops, boulangeries, and markets are also within a short walk in what is arguably the best neighborhood in Paris. We have rented places in Paris before, and I truly do not know that you could find a better rental in Paris. The apartment is very well appointed, very quiet, great kitchen, 2.5 bathrooms is really great. We were a family of 4 for two weeks- with 2 teens and there was plenty of room for all. It occupies a full floor in an 18th-century building around a garden courtyard. Catherine is very attentive and on top of every detail and her housekeeper is wonderful. I wish we could have stayed for several months.

Absolutely superb.Catherine is a great host. She communicated promptly and in detail prior to our arrival, providing short video clips showing how to operate appliances, etc. During our stay we communicated by several text exchanges, a telephone call, and even FaceTimed so she could help troubleshoot an issue we were having with the dryer. Could not ask for more.The apartment itself is beautifully appointed with a well-stocked kitchen and very comfortable bed. Very central location. We easily walked to the Louvre, Orsay Museum, Notre Dame, Saint-Chapelle, and throughout the Left Bank area. For longer journeys, we caught Metro 12 at its Rue du Bac stop to reach the Saint-Lazare train station (trains to Monet’s Gardens and throughout Normandy), RER C at its Orsay Museum stop to reach Champ de Mars (Eiffel Tower) and Versailles, and Bus 73 at its Orsay Museum stop to reach the Arc de Triomphe.Regarding transportation, Catherine arranged for a driver (who we paid separately) to meet the train on which we arrived and take us to Charles de Gaulle Airport upon our departure. This was great! We arrived about noon on a rainy Saturday. Had we tried to haul ourselves and our luggage through the pandemonium of the weekend crowds on the streets and in the Metro it would have been miserable. Being met by a driver made our arrival smooth and pleasant, as he coordinated with the concierge to meet us at the open apartment.The place to stay on your visit to Paris.

Great location and spacious one bedroom

It is a beautiful property with Parisian charm, just as pictured. It is very spacious with a large master bedroom and soaking tub. The building is old which is part of the charm as you are part of 'real paris' and on the left bank, only a block from the seine river and a quick walk to a great bakery, cafes, bars (but quiet ones). Though some reviews have indicated it can sleep more than 2, note that it is for only 2 people. We read reviews where more than 2 were noted and traveling as a couple, my dad decided join us for part of the time and could not stay with us. Again, the VRBO listing clearly says only 2 so don't be swayed by other reviews. You will love staying here if you want to be close to the bank and in the great arrondissement of St. Germain.

Paris Apartment

The apartment felt very French with it’s high ceilings, crown moulding and beautiful French oak herringbone floors! It was very spacious and comfortable for our 2 week stay in Paris. My adult daughter came for the weekend and with the second bathroom and sofa bed, she was very comfortable. The location was excellent, in the 7th Arrondissement, the Saint-Thomas-d’Aquin neighborhood, on the border of the Saint-Germain neighborhood, a block from the Seine and just across the river from the Louvre. There were lots of good restaurants nearby, as well as specialty shops to buy everything we could want to dine in! The host and manager were most helpful and extremely receptive to all our questions and needs. We did feel that the lighting was low throughout the apartment, including the kitchen. For anyone serious about cooking, the kitchen was well equipped but to our disappointment we were not able to get the grill to work (even after consulting the manual), the pilot light would not come on and no indication that it had ever been used. Otherwise a lovely experience.

Comfortable apartment in the heart of Paris

My husband, daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed staying in Catherine’s apartment for 8 nights over New Year’s. Great size for 3 people (4 would fit comfortably, too). The rooms were spacious for relaxing and 3 bathrooms were a plus. The kitchen was quaint and contained all the necessities for a long stay. The location was ideal for walking to many of the major sites in Paris. Lots of shops for specialty foods and great restaurant options within blocks of the apartment. We would definitely stay again.

Perfect stay in Paris - sad to leave!

This apartment is well located near Saint Germaine. The apartment is so tastefully decorated with abundant and interesting art, which is what first attracted me online. Also the wood floors are divine in what might be called a herringbone pattern. The apartment has some contemporary finish-ours and has all the modern amenities you need but yet it is historic in feel (and in reality!). The host is super helpful and arranged for a driver for us from the airport round trip. I highly recommend this apartment and we hope to go back someday!

Great location; spacious apartment

We had an excellent experience - including quick and responsive access to the property owner; great local staff to get us settled; and a really excellent Rive Gauche (7th) location. We had only a short walk to the entrance to the Louvre, Saint Germain des Pres, rue De Bac, and the Latin Quarter. In spite of very cold weather, the apartment was very warm and secure. We still marvel as how spacious it was with a pretty quiet street out front and a garden in the back, and a well equipped, eat in kitchen. Extra bonus: before you come the owner sent a few short videos so we actually knew how to run the appliances and close the shutters! And these days, with Covid still lurking we really appreciated the impeccable housekeeping.
