Appartement Insolite et Charmant du XVIe Siècle près de la Place des Vosges

Quirky but lovely and charming apartment in a great location, with the owner very handily nearby, willing to give helpful recommendations. Thank you so much

Wonderful experience and great location. Aside from the heat wave we experienced in June and no AC, the place was clean and comfortable. Best pastries in Paris next door and easy access to metro stops. Pierre is a very good host.

Pierre is a wonderful host and I enjoyed my time staying in this apartment in the Marais, so perfectly located, and with many other conveniences. It is spacious and comfortable, with natural light, and has a cozy atmosphere. Near to delicious restaurants, cafes, and bakeries, it is a dream for the foodie.

After Spending 6 weeks in Pierre’s apartment we did not want to come home! The apartment is in an excellent location (less than 1 block from Place des Vosges) and blocks from the bustling Bastille area. It is charming, well-equipped and very safe. It is also very large (not only for Paris but for any European city). We very much enjoyed its proximity to metro, the Chemin Vert station for line 8 around the corner takes you to anywhere in the city. Pierre was also very very helpful with suggestions and anything we needed in apartment. The stay at this location made our stay memorable, we hope to stay at this location again in the future. Recommendations for area: L’escurial on the opposite side of square is a must for breakfast and L’ambroisie is excellent for dinner.

It was so fun and we had a great time! It was the rainy season , which didn’t slow us down, but rather than turn on air conditioning, we chose to open the beautiful windows; if you don’t live in the city , the street noise can be overwhelming. The wonderful apartment is surrounded by some really great restaurants which made dining out fun. We walked to Notre Dame and the Louvre and Ste. Chapelle. Wish we had more time!

Pierre was a great host. Responded to inquiries quickly. The apartment was lovely. As pictured in VRBO. Each loft had a bed and there was a pullout couch. The only non super positive thing I could say is that the beds were just okay. As we had our two kids with us that were on their early twenties one had to use the pullout couch. Excellent restaurants close by. The l’Ange 20 is right across the street and has a great ambience and terrific food. Unless you eat early or late you may need a reservation. Closed Monday’s and Tuesday’s. The Bonne doer was just down the block and is a good spot if you need a quick dinner and the food was very good. We were about a 20 minute walk to Notre Dame. A 30 min walk to the Louvre. And an hour and 15 min walk up the Eiffel Tower. Metro close by and uber a good prion as well. There was a nice little kitchen that we didn’t use much. And a handy washer / dryer that was small but did the trick for a couple of small loads. A terrific spot that I highly recommend.

Our family of 6 traveled to Paris in May 2018, and loved our stay in this Paris apartment. It was close to the yellow line on the Open Tour bus, which was great! We used this bus to get around Paris every day, and see the sights! The only negative was that the tub was really difficult to shower in. My husband couldn't stand up in the shower... making it awkward. Despite this, we really enjoyed our stay

We stayed for a month in Pierre's apartment. Highly recommend if someone is looking to stay at a great location and hosted by a great, understanding, helping host who would go out if his way to help. For example, after staying at Pierre's apartment, we were to leave Paris for two weeks on an Italian and Spanish tour. We did not want to carry all the luggage and Pierre happliy agreed to store them for us for 2 weeks. The apartment is well connected to Metro as well as bus. Bus number 69 (recommended by Rick Steves) had a stop at less than 200 meters from Pierre's place. If you want to stay close night life, bingo. The Bastille night life with 24/7 restaurants and pubs are 4-5 minutes walk from Pierre's apartment. Place des Vosage is across the street and Gare de Lyon is 3 stops away. Again, we highly recommend and would love to stay again here.
