Historic Center, 140 m², sleeps 8, just renovated, walk to eveything, a/c
Spacious and central, this home near Notre Dame packs a punch in terms of location as well as size. You're right on the banks of the Seine here with some of Paris' most sought after eateries just outside your door. Inside, it's a minimalist dream, with all-white walls, pale wood floors and spotlighting. Striking, industrial style furniture and riveted support columns take pride of place in the open-plan living room, and the modern kitchen is perfectly equipped for families cooking at home. There's a little office space if you're going to be working during your stay, and bedrooms are super comfortable. From here it's just a few steps to Saint-Michel Notre Dame metro station to get around the city, and you can easily walk to the Louvre and Musee d'Orsay.

Great location
Ideal location and great common area. Easy access to Metro and RER. Plenty of cafes, patisseries, and boulangeries in the area. Only challenge was communicating with the property manager; took several attempts to get responses (both email and text) to basic questions and requests.
This is our second family trip to Paris using this property. First time was 6 years ago with the second time just last week. We remembered where items were from the first time and how well planned the apartment was. It is in an excellent location - walk to major museums, shopping, eating establishments, night time entertainment, etc. Will reserve this property again for our next trip - without hesitation!!!

It was the perfect arrangement for our family. The apartment was clean, comfortable, and close to major sites. Thank you.
Excellent location and well kept and nice apartment
The social areas of the apartment were very ample and nice. Good taste, and well decorated. AC in each room and in the social areas. Safe and easy to get around. Highly recommended.
Lovely spacious apartment in a great location. We celebrated Christmas with our family and it was great. We could walk to most sights. The kitchen and dining area were great for having family celebratory meals together. It was also close to many restaurants and cafes.
We enjoyed our stay immensely! The apartment is located exactly where we wanted to be, close to the 6eme and easy for uber to find us. Only one flight of stairs to the front door made it easy for papa too! only draw back, even though it's situated right on the Seine, overlooking Pont Neuf - the apartment has no view, in fact, almost no windows at all, save for the internal building operations. Wishing this was a little more clear on the description. But, overall, very satisfied.
Great location, big living room and nice air conditioning. There are two disadvantages, a large one and a small one. There are no windows overlooking a street. The small one is horrible squishy pillows.
This apartment is in a great spot! Close to the metro and lots of shops and restaurants. It has plenty of space to spread out, and it was very clean. Advertised air conditioning (which it had), just didn’t work very well. But, I would definitely stay here again!
Perfect, well located, large apartment for the five of us (all adults) staying in 3 bedrooms. Only issue was a neighbour cleaning bins adjacent to the bedroom window at 6am for 30 minutes. Really enjoyed our stay here. Would definitely stay here again. Really happy.
Location was great, everything you need was in the apartment. Spacious and as described.
We were 2 families of 4 and had plenty of room. Aircon in the bedrooms was really appreciated on a hot summer night. Aircon in the main room was not good however the fan provided some relief.
We enjoyed our stay and relished the unexpected room to spread out in this lovely Paris apartment.

Great location apartment that was exactly as described. Our family of 6 had plenty of room and was able to walk to almost all the major tourist spots.
This was a great place for a family/group. The location is fantastic - right by Notre Dame and The Louvre. Wonderful shops and restaurants all around (including multiple Michelin star restaurants). The check in process was a breeze too.
Apartment is ideal location, walking distance to hundreds of cafes &restaurants, grocery markets, Louvre, St Chapelle , Conciegerie, shopping. We used hop on, hop offs to venture farther out like Champs Elysees. Ubers or taxis for Sacré-Cœur and Moulin Rouge, private guide for Versailles.
Apartment is very clean,spacious and kitchen very well stocked. It was wonderful apartment
As with most European apartments, the building itself is noisy with people coming and going so I suggest you take a noise maker to drown out the noise
Only suggestion I have is that we only had a duvet for bed cover which was too hot for summer. A top sheet would have been nice and I’m sure owner would have provided one but we didn’t notify him so that is our fault
I highly recommend this apartment and don’t think we could have found a better one
Overall the property was great. The location was really nice for all the sites we wanted to see. It was clean and stocked well enough for everything we needed.
Our only complaint was that sometimes the AC units would make it smell like cigarette smoke - possibly it was just pulling in air from outside where someone was smoking.
Lovley apartment in a great area. Nice and clean. Did smell.as though someone had been smoking prior to our arrival. Plenty of toiletries towels and bedding. We did want to use the sofa bed as we are 5 ladies that do need our personal space. We did use the sofa bed but when asked about the bedding was told there enough beds and we wouldnt need the sofa bed. Easy checking and out. Comfy beds Perfect communication with the owner and they let us leave our luggage in the apartment until 5pm. The only let down was the fridge wasn't clean and had some mouldy fruit in it.
The apartment is in a perfect location for all things Paris. We had an easy time coming & going and doing all the things we wanted to do. The unit is very clean and is as described. The cleaners were there to greet us upon our arrival and were very friendly and helpful. The apartment is as described and just what we needed for our family of 4.
My three teens and I loved this property. There was plenty of room to spread out to sleep and relax after very busy days of walking and touring. The apartment is one block from a market for groceries, near many fantastic brasseries and cafes and walkable to the Louvre. Other tourist locations - Musee Orsay, Eiffel Tower, etc., are about a 30 min walk. It's easy to catch a taxi from this location. We would stay there again. I would say the place is great, comfortable an appointed, but like other posters mentioned, if you want a place with a view, this isn't it. The owner was great with communication.
This is the second time I've booked an apt in Latin Quarter or Saint Germaine des Pres. This place was so much nicer than the last.
(Our family = Married couple, plus 4 teens. Californians who can go high or low -- we love a W hotel or a funky country cabin. Good travel experience. Not the Four Seasons type.)
General: Apt has clean/basic decor, remodeled recently, seems more of a rental than family home. Roomy common areas with big DR table and kitchen, well equipped kitchen with just enough coffee and toilet paper to get you over a few days. A few adapters on table, two sets of keys. washer (combo unit but drying takes a while). Thankfully it has AC - a must in the summer in Paris.
3 bedrooms: one en-suite master, and two additional rooms that each had two twin beds. Not huge but roomy by Paris standards. Plenty of space in armoires and drawers. Comfortable beds.
Bathroom: The other bathroom is split between a shower room (bigger, which my girls loved for doing make up and getting dressed) plus a separate toilet closet with sink across the hall. This makes it easy for a group to rotate into shower, etc. These two rooms are both situated off the DR -- meaning they are for general use and not meant as en-suites. Plenty of hot water and updated fixtures.
Location: Out the front door, you're on the Seine, and you can walk a coupla blocks to several of the romantic bridges. Go right to Notre Dame, left to Louvre, or walk deeper in Latin Q just three blocks to the heart of St GdP. Bldg is on a main street, so it's easy to get car/taxi. Metros within a few blocks any direction.
Secure: bldg with two locking doors prior to reaching the locked apt door. Small functional elevator if your luggage is heavy.
Comms: Great communication with manager/owner -- clear info and friendly remote check in.
Overall: Great!
Not a traditional French film apt with balcony or rooftop. (But FYI -- I had one of those quintessential French apts the last time I booked and the bathroom was the size of an airplane toilet, and I never opened balcony because Paris was 100 degrees and I walked up 3 flights of stairs. Never again.)
Not Versailles either. Typical apts in Paris are not American Penthouses. They are smart, efficient and simple.
Just right: Perfect for our family vacation and I'd book again in a heartbeat.
Until next time, au revoir Paris!

Hosted by Carol
Dual citizen American/French. I lived in both countries, I now live in the French Alps., I love Paris and my dream has always been to own a property in the absolute best location: Along the River Seine, in St Germain neighborhood. But they are worth several million $! So I found the perfect solution: rent them to fellow american travellers, and enjoy them when they are not rented. A perfect win-win!
