Reviews of Property: Latin Quarter Paris luxury apartment for up to 5 people

Fin janvier à Paris - dans le quartier de la Rive Gauche.
Superbe......il n'y a nulle part ailleurs si agréable pour passer un
séjour romantique...... même par un temps inhabituel. Il gêlait et ne parlons pas de la neige!

Quel appartement ravissant! Ca se sent que les propriétaires l'aiment bien et cela nous transmet ce sentiment d'un vrai "chez soi". Ils ont fait en sorte qu'il y a tout ce qu'il faut pour y passer un séjour magnifique... hyper confortable, meublé avec du goût, avec une cuisine bien équipée - si jamais on souhaite faire la cuisine, ce qui n'était pas notre cas.... car on a tant de choix de restaurants! Puis la calme du cours intérieur ainsi que le double vitrage sur la façade donnant sur la rue Saint Jacques voulaient dire que nous avons pu passer des nuits bien tranquilles. Et on est parfaitement placé. Le cathédrale majestueux de Notre Dame, tout près de la Seine, n'est qu'à une centaine de mètres. L'appartement lui même donne directement sur l'Eglise St Séverin. Tout autour se trouve une gamme de restaurants
fabuleux. Le métro, les bus, le bateau bus etc, ils sont tous à porté de main. Nous nous trouvions idéalement placés pour aller visiter ces sites touristiques de Paris qui sont à peine à quelques minutes à pied...... le boulevard Saint Germain, le boulevard Saint Michel, Saint Germain des Près .... tous dans le même quartier.... et ensuite la Place des Vosges, le Marais, la Bastille, le Centre Pompidou...... mais je pourrais en cité /ad vitam eternam/..... c'est formidable. Une chose est claire - nous y retournerons volontiers!

Lived as Parisians for the month of November in a very special location in the heart of Paris. Out of the window St Severin Church, down the road the beautiful river Seine, and Notre Dame Cathedral, a sightseeing paradise. Location location location makes this elegant apartment a joy. Come up 3 flights of winding stairs carefully through the various security codes into a world of your own. Unless you have front windows wide open to St Jacques below the double glazing keeps the apartment peaceful, a large comfortable double bed in the master bedroom at the back where one can sleep with the windows open away from traffic noise is to be treasured. An adjoining bath and shower a few steps away from the master bed is very handy and luxurious, a separate toilet for if there are guests. A very helpful fluent English speaking French lady who is on call to service the apartment at request gives peace of mind. Use the Tues, Thurs and Sat market at Place Maubert and the adjoining butcher and boulangerie for your french bread plus the Boulangerie on Rue Galande for good patisseries. A pattiserie a day keeps the doctor away, we often had two! Cooking your passion? The Place Maubert market even has fresh fish for you to cook in the apartment on and there is the gorgeous Place Maubert cheese shop closeby for dessert with grapes. A microwave in case you get take aways from the Chinese Restaurant downstairs so you can heat it up next day! A huge fridge to keep your goodies fresh. A very elegantly furnished apartment of large proportions with excellent facilities including TV and phone, iron and iron board and a dishwasher and washing machine/dryer, even a drying clothes horse. A number of beautiful coffee table books on Paris/France. An apartment clean and appealing to the eye and very much loved by its owners in New Zealand. Very much to be recommended to visitors to Paris, everyone should be so lucky to go and live as a Parisian at 17 Rue St Jacques with cuisine so delish at famous restaurants such as Procope and I'llot Vache and of course all the famous sights easy to get to such as the Eiffel, Le Louvre, Montmarte, go cycle around! The attractions, activities and restaurants are endless. A fabulous folder full of ideas and instructions to get around Paris await you when you arrive to help you get the most of your Parisian adventure, do take the opportunity, enjoy!

My family of 5 which included 2 teenage boys and elderly Grand Mother, stayed at this beautiful apartment for 5 nights in January 2008.
The location is fabulous, the apartment was well heated, and the kitchen is the best I have cooked in, in Paris.
We were extremely comfortable in all the beds, and we much appreciated the free wireless internet connection.
The apartment overlooks a lovely church, but at night it was quiet and peacefull.
Walking distance to everything, the location is the best!
John is an absolute delight to deal with.We have always relied on him for all our French travel (over the past 15 years), and it is wonderful that he now has this special apartment.
We can recommend this apartment 100%.

If you are looking for the perfect place to stay while you enjoy all that Paris has to offer look no further. My wife and I couldn't believe our luck, this gorgeous apartment right in the heart of Paris was the perfect place for us to be Pariseans for 10 days. It is very comfortable with a full kitchen so you can bring all that yummy food home and make your own french feast which we did on several occasions. All our friends staying in hotels were so envious of our little piece of paradise that we called home, because that's what it felt like. It was the making of our stay in Paris we can't wait to go back and do it all again.

Loved the location of the apartment, and the view from the living room, which was a very pleasant room. Very convenient location for all the sights - we walked everywhere.Liked all the info provided - very helpful. Good confortable bed, but we hadn't realised the only bathroom was open onto the bedroom, which was a bit tricky with three constantly showering teenagers. Apartment was not spotlessly clean on our arrival, but was well maintained and equipped.

The apartment was ideal for our family of 5 (3 boys 12,14 and 17). The location was superb - just minutes from Notre Dame and the Seine and next to loads of cafes and shops! You felt you were immersed in Paris.
Great facilities, more than you needed. Very clean and all arrangements went perfectly. Owner gave brilliant info about what to do and see and (very importantly for teenage boys) the location of a wonderful boulangerie and cheese shop.

Very comfortable and in a great location for exploring. Arrived on a freezing mid December night and found the apartment very warm and cosy. Had everything we needed to spend a thorougbly enjoyable and memorable xmas. Only wished we had stayed another week or two! Will most definitely be booking this property again.

My husband and three boys ages 12, 6 and 4 were fortunate to stay in this apartment in Paris. It is charming and what we expected a French home to be like. It was a cold spring week when we stayed but the apartment was exceptionally warm and that had a lot to do with our positive opinion of Paris. It is well set up for a family and would also suit a couple. It is spacious, clean and tastefully decorated. The bathroom area off the master bedroom is charming and it has a good shower. The beds are comfortable and the linen is fine. We were given an itinerary to take for our stay in Paris and this was very helpful and once again suited our holiday needs - it took us on walks and to shops that were not the typical tourist attractions. We enjoyed going to the local plas for bread, cheese and wine. I would recommend this property to everyone and I would happily stay there again. The instructions for getting to the property were clear and easy to follow.
