Live Like A Parisian

Very charming apartment under the roof, with lots of light, typical Parisian.
The apartment is in Le Marais, Rue des Francs Bourgeois, right in the center of Paris, that you can choose to walk everywhere easily. The location is surrounded with old historical buildings and the Place Des Vosges is just around the corner. And there are endless choices of restaurants and shops around.
The building is from the 19th century, all in stone.
The apartment is very stylish with designer pieces and decoration from antic shops.
You enter in a stylish living room with authentic designer furniture as Le Corbusier and old pieces of art and decoration picked in auction or antic shops, mostly from 40'-50'.
You can also find a lot of books of architecture as my partner is architect, that you can choose to read during a day off of wandering all over the city.
The apartment is very confortable for relaxing or working with the high speed internet connection.
The bedroom has the view on Saint Paul Church and the sky of Paris. The morning sun creeps through the south window - Some guests definitely spent a couple extra hours just lazing around, enjoying that.
The bed is new and very confortable. I provide two types of pillows for those who like to have a firm one. There is also a big wardrobe available.
The bathroom goes with a tub, so you can even have a long bath after walking too much.
The kitchen is not very big but fully equipped with a good coffee machine, oven, and dishwasher.
A washing machine and dryer are available on the same floor.
the apartment is at the 6th floor, with no elevator, as most Parisian building. But what a delight when you are in the apartment to feel like a romantic nest, above Paris.

I provide bed linen, towels, tea and coffee.

Beautiful apartment in ideal location
I stayed here for a week with my teenage daughter for a mother-daughter trip, and the apartment was lovely. It was on the smallish side, but we expected that. We had everything we needed here. We did not cook - other than making coffee in the morning - so I cannot speak to how it would have been to cook in the kitchen, as it was very small. We were very glad that the elevator had been installed and was working, as it would have been difficult to drag our suitcases up 6 very narrow flights of stairs, so the elevator was appreciated! The neighborhood was perfect - charming, beautiful, with cafes and interesting shops all round. We could not have been happier with the location and the apartment suited our needs very well.

Charming apartment in great location
We spent five wonderful nights at this charming apartment to celebrate an anniversary and it was the perfect central location. Our host, Mathieu, provided us with excellent recommendations for restaurants nearby and the self check-in worked seamlessly with the detailed instructions he provided to us. We highly recommend this apartment and host.

A Very Enjoyable Accommodation but Check the Ascent
I really enjoyed this property because (a) it's very comfortable, well-appointed and modern (b) it's quiet (c) it was in a good location (at least for my needs). That said, it's on the 6th floor of a 6 floor building. An elevator is being installed but was not completed before my stay began. The owner explained this to me and I was aware that the elevator night not be complete, and indeed it was not. I knowingly accepted the risk. I'm fit but going up 6 flights with a heavy suitcase and backpack was challenging. I also walk everywhere in the city (with few exceptions), and after hours of waking the vertical climb was not exactly the best part of my day. My recommendation would be to understand if the elevator is functional when you commit to the rental, unless you enjoy significant exercise. The location suited my needs because I could walk to many places of my interest. Also, there is a taxi stand 5 minutes away for more far-flung points. I prefer to stay above-ground, either on-foot or in a taxi to see the world around me. For that reason I can't comment on the metro. I had a wonderful stay in Paris for my 4.5 day sejour, which occurred during school vacation week. I would say that if you have your heart set on seeing particular sites, buy tickets on-line well in advance. You might find yourself disappointed, otherwise. Thanks to host Mathieu for his responsiveness and fine hospitality.

Literal perfection!
The property looked incredible on VRBO but the reality of it, the location and more importantly Mathew exceeded our expectations. He is as charming as Paris itself and made our anniversary trip even more special! The location can't be beat and you should stop looking for another property and book this one ASAP!

Perfect pied a terre
Everything one could need is provided with this lovely apartment. Comfortable bed and pillows for a great night’s sleep, a beguiling view of Paris rooftops, amazing location with shops and restaurants at the doorstep. Above all, Mathieu is a gracious host and a terrific communicator. We couldn’t have asked for more from this rental.

Lovely apartment in a phenomenal area!
Wonderful apartment-- very functional, beautifully decorated, great windows, and accessible & friendly host! I have been to Paris several times, and this was one of the best areas that I have ever stayed while visiting. Highly recommend this apartment-- it was perfect for me and my boyfriend-- more than enough space, and the location is truly amazing. Great shopping, restaurants, wine stores/fromageries, and very safe neighborhood.

Excellent apt with A+ host
What a perfectly located, beautifully decorated apartment with lovely views. It's also quiet, despite being on a busy Marais street near the Place des Vosges. The host, Mathieu, truly goes above and beyond for his guests, too. Whether you need local recommendations or help with unexpected scenarios, he'll have you covered. Cannot recommend him highly enough! We're already looking forward to our next visit and booking this again. Merci beaucoup, Mathieu; à la prochaine!
