My 2 daughters, ages 5 and 8 just returned from a
lovely visit to Paris. The apartment was perfect for
us. Very comfortable, it felt like a 2nd home. And
was very close to the Metro which allowed us to get
around quite easily. The neighborhood was quiet
with plenty of shopping nearby. We enjoyed
ourselves so much that we have asked to return
there again next year. The owners were very
accomodating and helpful with any questions.
Definitely a great find.

The apartment is ideally located and wonderful to come back to at the end of the day. It is extremely comfortable, even with its French Haussmann and Empire style. The beds were outstanding, the kitchen absolutely perfect with everything one may wish for in cooking. We had a wonderful time there and would recommend it enthusiastically.

One could ask for no better accomodation in Paris! The apartment is conveniently located, making most destinations easy to get to. The library of tour guides and Paris-phanelia contain plenty of new ideas for even the most seasoned City of Lights visitors. The apartment is tastefully and comfortably furnished, with all the amenities one could need. It truly feels as though you are staying in someone's home and that it's a privelege to be able to share it. One has all the day-to-day items at hand and local shops are nearby for anything else. In addition to the great beds and furniture, the modern appliances, cable TV, and wifi connection all make for a very comfortable stay. The apartment is great for kids, as they can have their own room and place to relax, or watch French cartoons on TV or choose from a number of DVDs generously made available. In sum, this is the antithesis of an extended-stay hotel or corporate housing arrangement! We hope to be back and wish another unit in the building were available for sale!

The Rochefoucauld apartment provided us the perfect environment for our long-awaited month in Paris. We wanted spacious, charming yet comfortable living quarters in a quiet, non-touristy Parisian neighborhoon, and we were not disappointed.
The apartment is an adroit combination of Parisian ambiance and modern comfort. Both kitchen and bathroom are thoroughly modern and the spacious kitchen is equipped with state-of-the-art appliances. All of the large and comfortable rooms are tastefully decorated; there are thoughtful amenities throughout, such as the much-appreciated shopping cart, and ample storage space for an extended stay.
Totally unknown to us prior to this visit, the ninth arrondissemont is a delicious discovery, especially the fabulous rue des Martyrs. The once-again fashionable and fascinating neighborhood is steeped in history, fun to explore, with every convenience and two unique museums close at hand.
This was a wonderful Parisian home, made more so by Lauren's hospitality, and we look forward to returning.

We enjoyed our stay on Rochefoucauld; the size and corner location suit
us to a Tee, and the furnishings and amenities are enjoyable for a long
stay. Don't worry about the ironing board cover, quiche dishes, and other
small items; we are accustomed to adding a few things for our use,
especially when we know we will be returning to use them again, and it was
so well equipped that we found very little to add. It was a pleasant
surprise to find a shopping cart, abundant ice cube trays, potato masher,
ice cream scoop, and enough wine glasses for entertaining, which are things
we have had to buy in the past. We have rented 6 different Parisian apartments over the last 10 years and yours was the best equipped, it is obvious you intend to use it yourself from the way it is furnished and equipped. Lauren, the manager, was very pleasant and helpful. During our stay the building was very quiet,
we only saw the neighbors one day.

The neighborhood abounds with good restaurants, which is our raison d'etre.
I think we covered most of them and will fill in the gaps when we return in Oct. Rue des Martyrs is a pleasure; Arnaud Delmontel has become our favorite
boulangerie/patisserie, although a couple of others were very good. The flat sceen TV with English language news channels was nice, but even better was the wi-fi connection for our laptop, which functioned flawlessly. We are already looking forward to our October stay.

The apartment was perfect for an extended stay of 7.5 weeks. There was plenty of room for my wife and I, and we felt totally at home. Very spaceous for what we were expecting in Paris, could easily house a small family of 4. The dining room was not only handy for meals but also served as our "office" since I was working in Paris and my wife was studying french. The location was very convenient to the Metro, shopping and restaurants. We especially liked the shopping area on Rue Abbesses.It was very quiet at night and we had no problems sleeping.

The apartment was absolutely fantastic: We loved it. It was big and spacious and suited our needs perfectly. It was beautifully furnished, the bed was very comfortable, the kitchen modern and clean, and the bathroom was spotless. The location was perfect as well. We hardly used the metro and walked just about everywhere in Paris. When we did need the metro, the 2 closest stations put us close to most of the places we needed to go. The apartment was also around the corner from Rue de Martyrs, the closest 'market' street which made it easy for us to grab groceries. We felt very secure in the apartment too. We would also like to thank Lauren who was our perfect host whilst in Paris. All her suggestions were spot-on and she made our stay even more enjoyable. My partner and I can't speak any more highly about the apartment. It was definitely one of our favourtie things in Paris and we are already planning our next trip back to Paris. Hopefully the apartment is available!

this is my third paris rental in two years.your apartment is at the top of my list.the one i rented near the louvre was almost twice as expensive but didn`t hold a candle to yours.your place is extremely well decorated with a wonderful homey feeling.the bath and kitchen are state of the art for paris.the location is terrific being within a few blocks of two different metro stops.the area is safe ,clean and just bubbling with life.i could literaly go on much longer but suffice it to say your place is terrific and very fairly priced.i would be remiss if i didn`t mention your property manager Lauren.she is a jewel.extremely competent and very accomodating.i will be contacting you in a few months to reserve for next year.

I stayed at Jeff and Karen's beautiful
apartment in the 9th on my most recent
Paris. What a great space and fantastic
location, they clearly have gone above and
beyond my expectations... style and charm
are evident in their home. The location is
top notch, close to anything you possibly
want...Musuems, shops and great
restuarants. I can not wait to return next time
and will recommend it to my friends.
