"Our recent visit to Paris was magnificent! The Cabernet was a beautiful, comfortable and convenient "haven" after a day of sightseeing. The neighborhood was wonderful - we LOVED the local Boulanger! The apartment had everthing we could have wished for, beautifully decorated, comfortable beds, efficient kitchen and baths but most importantly - BEAUTIFUL VIEWS!!!
We're already planning our next visit. Thank you for the hospitality. Merci!!"

"Paris "perfect" really summed up our stay in this beatiful apartment with a great location--we had 3 great dinners in walking distance--and that magnificient view of the Eifel Tower! This is far more than an apartment rental, it is a gracious introduction to Parisian life, and Philippe and Madelyn have gone way above the call of duty in providing every amenity one could think of, and so much more....canb't imagine ever visiting Paris again and not staying right there....Warmest thoughts and memories from J. & M.

Pomerol
"Pomerol was a fantastic apartment with a great location right on Rue Cler. It was beautifully decorated and well equipped and the management staff was extremely helpful. It made our one week Paris experience very special, one that our family will never forget. The views of the Eiffel Tower from the apartment are incredible..."

"What a wonderful way to experience Paris! I will never rent a hotel room there again.
Madelyn and Philippe, you've done fabulous job with the apartment. It was exactly as advertised. The neighborhood and the shopping/dining recommendations were just what I needed for my fall getaway. I look forward to visiting Paris and staying in one of your units many more times.
Thanks so much!"

"Bonjour,
This was my virtual 10 day trip to France. All my plans and services were selected and paid for via the internet with no knowledge whatsoever of any of the vendors.
After spending many hours on the internet looking for an apartment to replace a hotel room, I came across Paris Perfect. With patience, the Pomerol became available for the time period I needed. I brought a friend along on her first trip to Europe and was really hoping I hadn't made any mistakes.
She loved the Pomerol, especially the view of the Eiffel Tower at night. I was delighted that everything went according to plan and the apartment looked EXACTLY like the pictures on the internet.
This was a wonderful way to become a part of a neighborhood and just a little more special than an ordinary tourist.
We were really coming into our own with our favorite neighborhood restaurants and shops all selected when it was time to go home.
Can't wait to return to Paris as well as try the other locations available.
Merci beaucoup."

Romanée
"Dear Madelyn and Philippe,
Our delayed arrival into Paris kept us from reaching your Romanee apartment until almost midnight. From the first moment, we felt welcomed and right at home your beautiful apartment. Although the dining table was fully set and ready to host the six of us to dinner, we were more in need of showers and baths and a good night's sleep, and that's exactly what we got. No shortage of hot water and beds that caressed us into a deep sleep. It was heaven. Everything about the apartment was first class. And the view from the windows was priceless. La Tour Eiffel stood solidly by day but danced like a ballerina by night right in front of our eyes. Magnificent! The calm and quiet neighbourhood offered everything we needed within a few minutes walk of the apartment and the famous museums and monuments for which Paris is famous were a short commute away. We simply had the most perfect stay in Paris and look forward to vacationing in one of your beautiful properties again. Merci beaucoup!

"We loved our stay at the Paris Perfect apartments,
We stayed in the Rue Cler area, the market is great, a super area, and the apartments was fabulous Pomerol, great neighbourhood, beautiful furniture, nicely decorated, exquiste view of the Eiffel tower light show, everything you need at your finger tips. We especially liked getting up and having our coffee, lounging and planning our day in a relaxed fashion, also appreciated the english DVD's. If we had any questions, in fact, I found you did not have to speak French, most were willing to help out and a very easy city to walk around and see all the site............a must for all travelers.

"We had an absolutely wonderful time in Paris, and a big part of that was staying in such a great apartment (Pomerol), and dealing with such great people. The location was ideal, with Rue Cler market right downstairs, and everyone associated with Paris Perfect seem genuinely concerned that your stay is indeed perfect. We are already talking about returning to Paris with our two children (London too)."

""We had a wonderful time in your apartment this September. Photo's on your website do not do justice to the spectacular view of the Eiffel Tower and Parisian rooftops directly from the well appointed living room. Also, the kitchen was extremely well equipped and a pleasure to use.
As for the location, proximity to the Champ de Mar for our toddler and the food shopping on Rue St. Dominique for our European in-laws could not have been better. Easy access to the Grand Magasins via metro kept the fashionista in my wife happy and the neighborhood restaurants could not have been more charming and accomodating.
All in all a wonderful experience. We hope to return soon.""

"My friends and I recently spent a wonderful week at the apartment called St. Emillion. It is beautiful and lived up to all of our expectations and more. We found Phillipe and Madlyn to be wonderful hosts and kind and helpful in every way. I highly reccomend these accomodations. Sincerely, Judith"

"My wife, my 3 children, ages 13, 15, and 17, and I spent the first week in July in the Romanee apartment. It was everything the website promised, except for one – it was even closer to the Eiffel Tower than the map or the pictures indicate! It was wonderful.
Paris Perfect delivered on everything it promised. Our flight was late, our shuttle took over two hours to get us to the apartment, we couldn’t get our cell phone to function, and when we showed up at the apartment, Caroline was already there to greet us and let us drop off our bags. The apartment was cleaned and available for us only a few hours later (much earlier than we hoped) and we were able to return and sleep and then enjoy Paris over the next 7 days.
Every day in Paris was great. Shopping and sight-seeing was all made so much easier by having a "home" to return to and rest and relax before going out to dinner.
The apartment was everything you see on the website and more. With 3 teenagers and two adults each wanting to shower / bathe in the morning and after a long day out, we had two baths/showers in simultaneous use and we still never ran out of hot water. The fact that the Romanee has two separate toilets (one separate WC and one toilet in the master bath) was a godsend.
The apartment was exceedingly quiet and safe and sleeping was easy and comfortable every night. Two adults in the master bedroom, one child in the other bedroom, one on the fold out bed in the living room (which each of the children agreed was the best bed), and one on a futon in the living room. We had ample and comfortable space. We over-packed by a factor of 2 or 3, and we still had more than enough space for our clothing and bags.
It is a wonderful location (just a VERY SHORT block from the Eiffel Tower and such a wonderful, safe neighborhood). My wife and I spent three nights out at dinner by ourselves, and our children went to the Eiffel Tower by themselves after dark two of these nights and mingled with the throngs of tourists. We felt very comfortable letting the children go out on their own (so long as they stayed together) to the Eiffel Tower and to the local Pizzeria for takeout (run by a very courteous and friendly Algerian gentleman who spoke just a word or two of English but was able to understand exactly what our children ordered).
Each trip to Paris must include at least one trip up the Eiffel Tower. We took at least three. Having it so close meant that we could visit it several times at the exact time we wanted, to see the view from the top in the day, at sunset and after dark.
The "Fun Things to Do in Paris" brochure, which Paris Perfect provided by email before we arrived, was excellent. We visited several of the restaurants that the brochure recommended. Our children's favorite was La Taverna, which the whole family loved. On one of our "nights out" without the kids, my wife and walked to Thoumieux where I tried the "Cassoulet" recommended by Philippe in the brochure. I couldn't believe that I had traveled all the way to Paris (the home of the world's best cuisine) to order a bean casserole. But it turned to be my favorite meal of the trip. Thank you Philippe and Madelyn.
There are 4 metro/RER stops within easy walking distance – Ecole Militaire, Pont de l'Alma (which seemed to be the closest), Bir-Hakeim and Champs de Mars. No matter where we were in the City, at least one of these stops was usually only one transfer away, and sometimes, no need to transfer at all.
When we vacation with my children, we usually rent an apartment in the city we visit. The children are simply too mature for one hotel room to work, and to rent two rooms splits up the family and ruins the experience. Our experiences in resort/apartment rentals range from "good" to "miserable". Our last jaunt was to the Fiesta Bowl in Phoenix in December where we stayed at a well known golf resort in a 3 bedroom condo. It was nice, but it could not compare to ParisPerfect. The Romanee was miles and miles better than any other apartment or resort I have ever been to, and was, well – Perfect! We would go back in a heartbeat. Thank You Paris Perfect."

"Thank you for a good stay in Paris. The apartment is in a great location with a very pleasant neighbourhood with everything within walking distance.
Perfect for two people that wants a romantic getaway. We were four people and it worked fine and we enjoyed the stay.
Very clean, very well prepared and very hospitable welcome and support. The information provided about Paris and the things you can do was very useful.
We will be back."

""Our family of five (we have three sons ages 11, 17 and 20) just returned from a one-week stay in the wonderful Merlot apartment. It was a first trip to Paris, and your apartment made it even more special. We loved the furnishings, the special touches like the gift basket and DVDs to use, that made it so memorable. Even though the week started out warm (sticky, mid-80s), your fans and open windows made it quite comfortable. Your perfect location can't be beat....we enjoyed the neighborhood cafes, the great bakeries, and a few nights we put together our own take-in dinner from the Rue Cler vendors. We'd rent another place from you in a minute the next time we're lucky enough to vacation in Paris.

"My wife and I stayed in your lovely Merlot apartment in mid-May, 2004 -- celebrating our 25th. Our special treat was having our daughter join us -- who, at the time, was studying in Europe. So -- the accomodations were just perfect; Jenni had her own room and privacy while my wife and I shared the master. Your apartment, Philippe and Madelyn, was beautifully appointed -- as evidenced by the stunning but quite comfortable furniture, special and highly functional built-ins, especially in the kitchen and baths and inviting terrace overlooking the Eiffel Tower. Every morning, I'd wander through the neighborhhod to bring back the freshest croissants, cheeses, eggs and herbs -- whip together one of my favorite breakfast concoctions and serve them to my girls as they'd sit out on the terrace enjoying the view of Parisian life. Just a wonderful time. Thank you for the welcome basket upon our arrival too -- a very pleasant personal touch."

"Renting an apartment vs. staying at hotel was new for us. We loved the experience so much we can't go back to staying at a hotel surrounded by tourist postcards and t-shirts ever again. What a wonderful surprise it was to enter the world of the Pomerol - easy check in/check out, a fantastic neighborhood, an informative neighborhood suggestion book with countless restaurants to choose from and a beautifully decorated apartment (with laundry)! Our ten day stay on the corner of Cler and Grenelle made the daily produce shopping so much fun, not to mention an incredibly easy walk to the pastry shop for our daily dose of macaroons. Philippe and Madelyn provide their guests with outstanding service. We will be back.

"We just returned home after spending ten glorious days in Paris. The highlight of the trip was staying in your apartment. Thank you so much for your kind hospitality and orientation to the area of Paris we grew to love.
From the moment we arrived, we felt welcome. The apartment was wonderful, charming and after a few days, felt like home.
Our wonderful memories include: Rue Cler and Rue Grennelle markets, Champs de Mars Park (especially on the week-ends with all the French families enjoying themselves), walking along the River Seine (so close to the apartment), and easy access to the Metro.
This was our fourth trip to Paris and our first experience staying in an apartment and we will definitely do it again. We do plan on returning and staying in an apartment with "Paris Perfect"."

"We were delighted with our Pomerol rental. It was in perfect condition and very well designed. We have rented from other companies before and there is no question this is the most professionally run organization. The owners are wonderful and could not be more helpful. I highly recommend anyone visiting Paris who wants to rent work with Paris Perfect. They are the best!

"Our family of two adults and two daughters (ages 8 & 10) just returned from a week in Paris, staying in one apartment, while our dear friends with their two daughters (ages 7 & 11) stayed in another apartment, in the adjacent building. We all had a fabulous time, greatly enhanced by the beautifully furnished and spacious accomodations in such a fabulous location. I have been to Paris many times, staying in accommodations ranging from youth hostels to 5 star hotels, but never before have I felt like I had lived in Paris for a week, rather than simply visiting. The location is absolutely perfect, surrounded by great restaurants and amazing food shops, and of course the drop-dead eiffel tower views. We own and rent out a couple of luxury vacation properties ourselves, and I must admit that I picked up several ideas from the truly gracious experience that Philippe and Madelyn have created... The extensive guide to the city and especially the neighborhood was very helpful (especially the notes on which restaurants to avoid; something you'd never find in Fodors, etc.!). A word of caution - book early, as we have already raved about our experience to many of our friends and colleagues!"

"We stayed at the Merlot apartment in late March and completely fell in love. We couldn't tell what we loved more - Paris or the apartment! It was a true fairy tale experience. The view from the apartment (from living room and bedroom) is indescribable. When friends look at my pictures from the apartment they comment on the view more than any other pics we took. Every detail is taken care of - a beautiful welcome basket with some goodies, a thorough orientation manual with important numbers, tips, etc., and even some starter items in the kitchen to make you feel right at home. When we ran into any problems, you were immediately responsive. This unit and parisperfect as a whole is more than worth what we paid. You can't put a price tag on the memories paris perfect helped us create. Thank you, thank you!! We will be back!"

""ParisPerfect" is a most fitting name for the week we spent last December in your Merlot apartment. From our communication prior to the trip to Madelyn's helping me find a large street map of Paris after we returned home, everything was exactly as you promised.
The apartment seemed palatial after the hotel room in le Marais where we stayed on a ten-day trip in May. We also loved feeling a part of a neighborhood and had a lovely time each morning choosing where to buy our breakfast!
For me, though, the definitive difference in a ParisPerfect apartment was the detailed information to help us enjoy the apartment, the neighborhood, and Paris. I felt more like a houseguest (and by the end of the week not so very foreign!) than a temporary renter; it was almost like being sent out everyday with a myriad of possibilities to explore & and a personal guide to tell us exactly how to access what was most interesting to us.
I have already alerted several friends to the website, and we will definitely be back for a ParisPerfect trip.
