Renting our Paris Vacation Rental Apartments - Information & Ideas

There are a number of factors we consider when looking for the best Paris apartment for your Paris vacation. We want Paris vacation rentals with the most central and safest locations. We look for apartments on high floors; they have the best Paris views so you have an unforgettable Paris vacation stay. Our Paris rentals have been fully renovated and offer modern kitchens and bathrooms for comfort and to minimize the risk of breakdowns. We own and manage our own apartments; most Paris short term rental companies use contract cleaners and greeters to handle everything for you in Paris. Ask the apartment rental company if they have their own Paris offices with English-speaking staff in Paris to answer questions and help you 7 days a week - not just a mobile phone number to call. These factors and more below set us apart from many Paris short term rental companies and help you enjoy a comfortable and enjoyable stay in Paris.

What sets us apart from other Paris apartment rentals

Our Paris Apartment Rentals

The top floors, stupendous views, charming buildings, unbeatable locations: You invest a lot to come to Paris and we think you should enjoy every minute of your stay, including romantic and unforgettable views, sunlight and charm, wherever you decide to rent. We carefully select only light-filled, outward-facing Paris apartments in the best neighborhoods, all in the heart of Paris. When someone describes a Paris short term vacation rental as ‘calm and quiet’, it usually means lower floor, dark, no view -- that is not for us. Paris apartments on lowfloors that face the courtyard are less expensive and less desirable to buy; there are a ton of them on the market. We would rather offer you a small selection of stunning luxury Paris short term rentals with beautiful views and features to make your trip to Paris a memory of a lifetime. Old buildings are undoubtedly the most charming, with restored features such as oak parquet floors, crown molding and marble fireplaces. For your special vacation in Paris, we want you to enjoy wonderful memories of Paris views, warm dinners with family and friends in a great apartment, or down time to read or work - enjoying beautiful views in a quiet Paris apartment.If you settle for less, you could be just... anywhere!

Wow Factor and Furnishings

Every short term Paris apartment rental has what we call a 'Wow' factor: beautiful, 18th century features and delightful views which make guests say 'Wow!' when they walk in. We furnish each Paris apartment rental with a combination of beautiful antiques, modern conveniences, comfortable beds, lovely furniture and lighting. Expensive sofas and mattresses are a must and we buy the same quality as used by Paris luxury hotels.

Only the Best Locations

Our luxury Paris apartment rentals are ideally located in the left bank heart: home to the Eiffel Tower, Invalides, Rodin Museum, Musée d'Orsay, Bon Marché department store and steps from the river and walking distance to most major landmarks of Paris. We believe that the neighborhood of a Paris apartment is very important: street and building must be in a charming up-market location. We don't want any ugly surprises when we step out of the taxi and neither do you. Recently, a woman called after she arrived in Paris, having booked an apartment elsewhere. When she arrived at her so-called luxury apartment, she discovered that the owners had neglected to mention the falafel stand in the lobby and the street noises and smells that wafted into their apartment day and night! Somehow, that bit of ‘local color’ wasn't shown on the website. They decided to visit our Paris apartments -- and promptly booked for their next trip and they paid us the highest compliment: 'Your apartments are nicer than the pictures on the website!'

Elevators

Most of our short term Paris apartment rentals that we offer have elevators: no lugging up stairs with heavy luggage and groceries. We chose two special apartments in ancient buildings where an elevator was not possible to install, the Riesling and Echezaux: we carefully state this in our description, naturally they cost less and we do not recommend them for elderly people or small children. If you can handle the stairs, they are truly special.
Our goal is to have you walk into one of our beautiful, clean Paris apartment rentals and feel at home and ready for a fantastic Paris vacation the moment you step in. We want it to be sunny and luxurious so you can enjoy lazy days curled up with music and a good book, or stand on the balcony and watch the street scenes below. That is all part of the experience and memory of your stay in the City of Light and we want you to enjoy every second of it!

Air Conditioning

Most of our apartments offer air conditioning, an important feature on those warm summer days and nights. This is a rare feature among Paris short term apartment rentals, but we think it’s important for your comfort.
