Great family break in Paris
Review Submitted: June 15, 2009

We've been coming to Paris by eurostar every year since the children were young - (now 9 & 12) and normally end up in a cramped 3-4 star hotel, with breakfast in a basement. The apartment was a real dream find for us - especially with the Uk pound/ euro rates being so poor. The apartment is small -bathroom very small - but the location was great and for us - and more than compensated for size. Easy access to a fabulous Street market -best in Paris for fish and meat, veg, restaurants, butchers, bakers and supermarket.
Metro is 5 mins walk - direct from gard du nord - so very easy from euro star. Also easy access to Disney land - approx 50 mins on train. Kamran, was great - and attended to our every need - the apartment was immaculately clean - and nice and airy. Great DVD player for the children - take your own DVD's. Luxenburg gardens close by - great for an evening stroll with the children (great play area - but closes at 7p.m) and then down to St Germain for dinner and nightlife. We were a family of 4 - and stayed for 5 nights - we would opt for a one bedroom apartment if we stayed any longer. Montparnasse is the best kept secret in Paris - really lovely traditional restaurants - as well as the ones that the kids like!. We will definately stay again next year.
