Comfortable accommodations, superb location.

The property was just as advertised- cozy but entirely comfortable for our group of five (two couples, one single, all in our late 60s. The location was simply unbeatable, a five-minute walk from Notre Dame, in a pleasant neighborhood, with a nearby metro station. Most of all, the owners were incredibly kind and helpful, with Maxim even waiting for us upon arrival, just to welcome us and show us around. I would give the property and hosts the very highest recommendation.

Short Stay

The property was perfect for our visit focusing on Notre Dame, Seine River cruising, and touring the city on an electric bicycle. The apartment was within a short walk of numerous bars and restaurants. The Saint-Michel Metro station was a few minute walk away allowing us smooth travel to Gare Des Nord and transition to Eurostar for London.

Best place to stay in Paris!

We loved everything about this flat especially the location and the fact it’s on the first floor. All things were provided adequately and the unit was vey comfortable and quiet! Plenty of hot water, sheets, blankets and towels too. Could not have been happier with the unit or the communication with the owners even having the opportunity to share some coffee and desert. A great experience and we hope to return!

Highly enjoyed our stay. Charming property on quiet street. Great location providing access to Notre Dame, museums, and great restaurants. Wonderful and friendly hosts who responded quickly to any issues. Early check-in was a nice perk.

Perfect Paris Stay Near Notre Dame!

We had a fantastic stay at this charming flat in the heart of Paris! The location couldn’t be better—just a short 3-minute walk to the iconic Notre Dame Cathedral and right across from Île Saint-Louis. Surrounded by incredible restaurants, cafés, and several grocery stores all within walking distance, it was the perfect base for exploring the city.The flat itself is full of character and history, with parts of the building dating back to the 13th century, which really added to the Parisian charm. It’s been thoughtfully renovated to maintain its ancient soul while offering modern comfort. With two separate bedrooms, each with its own bathroom and shower, the layout is ideal for 2 to 4 people who value both privacy and a shared living space.The living and dining area is cozy and welcoming, and while the kitchen is compact, it’s fully equipped for any meals you want to prepare at home. We especially appreciated the unique wooden ceilings and the peaceful atmosphere—it was a quiet, comfortable retreat after busy days of sightseeing.I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it for couples, friends, or small families looking for an authentic and convenient Parisian experience.

Great location

This apartment was perfect for my 91 year old brother and me. We spent the days walking many streets and neighborhoods of Paris, and would go back to the apartment for a quick rest before heading out to dinner. We loved that it was on the ground floor and didn’t have to carry suitcases up small staircases that are abundant in Paris!

Great Location

The flat is a typical small two bedroom that is clean and cozy. We really appreciated the location - easy walk to many sites and the neighborhood felt very safe. Lovely little outdoor market on Wednesdays and a few other days a week. Maria was helpful and recommended a fantastic Thai restaurant right around the block from the flat. Pillows and beds are on the firm side - not for people who require a pillow top mattress.

Spring Break

Very clean, great location with lots of restaurants and coffee shops. Very small, but charming. The exterior door to the property was not secure while we were there, but there were workers doing renovations. The door to the apartment was like a vault, we felt very secure. We were a party of four, 2 high school seniors and one set of grandparents.

Perfect Location!

We were recommended by a friend to stay in the Latin Quarter, so I limited my search to that area. This property was the perfect match! Enough space for 5 adults to sleep comfortably, and was within walking distance of everything we needed (we did not use the metro but there is a metro stop close by). I received timely answers to my questions (as this was our first time in France) and that helped our trip planning immensely. Very thankful for finding this place and will most likely stay here again if we are fortunate enough to go back to Paris in the future!

Perfect Parisian Getaway

We stayed for 6 nights with our daughter and grand-daughter in this lovely apartment. It is very well equipped and the privacy of the 2 bedrooms made a three generation stay very pleasant. American guests who have never been to Paris should expect the rooms to be small as is common in many Parisian apartments.The location was remarkably quiet at night, due to the thickness of the 13th century walls and greatly appreciated.Our hosts were charming and made themselves available to us as needed.The central location is ideal for walking to the Quartier Latin, Notre Dame, Isle St. Louis, the Bazar Hotel de Ville, and with some time, the Eiffel Tower. It is a few blocks from metro stations to reach within 20mn other destinations such as the Opera, Montmartre and department stores. Restaurants abound, as well as grocery stores, bakeries and markets, all within easy walking distance. We enjoyed our daily "petits dejeuners" with a short walk to Le Parisien or Isabelle's, just around the corner on the Blvd. St. Germain, two excellent boulangeries. Do not stay here if you're trying to lose weight! We recommend getting a Navigo card from a metro station for easy movement around this remarkable city. We enjoyed the long walk from Notre Dame to the Eiffel Tower, along the Seine on the left bank, observing the pedestrians, the architecture and river traffic, but you could also take the Batobus, the water taxi, that runs up and down the Seine with multiple hop on, hop off stops.

Perfect Location So Close to Notre Dame

Charming apartment close to Notre Dame - our favorite location. Max, Maria's husband, was charming and met us and explained everything about the apartment. A bit of miscommunication about the time but we did just fine once we met. All was spotlessly clean, and was as expected. Loved the first floor entry so no lugging luggage up many floors. Many bistros (the one one the corner by the river, L'Hostellerie de l'oi qui fume, had the best food we had in Paris), bakery, coffee shop, small grocery, etc. within a block. Thank you Maria and Max!!

2bed/2bath just a block from the Seine

I was thrilled to find this location for my week in Paris. Amazing location, separate rooms and full baths for me and my friend. And it’s on the ground floor, so no stairs. Also, just a block from the metro and very central so we did more walking than training. To set expectations, everything in Paris is much smaller than you’d expect if you are from the US. The rooms, the beds, showers, tea cups, TV screens. The better the location, the better the chances that things will be cozy. The hostess was very responsive and pleasant. She called to check on us as we were gathering our baggage at the airport. She wanted to make sure we found the place, understood the keys/door codes, security procedures, etc. Her directions were very thorough and clear so we had no problems. She would have happily come by to greet us and offered local restaurant ideas. All in all, the ideal host.

Great Location and Helpful Hostess

Even though Maria was in Italy at the time of our visit, she arranged for the housekeeper to meet us and explain things. She also was only a phone call away to answer questions. The call was free on the apartment land line as was any call to North America😊. The location was ideal, within walking distance of many main sites and close to Metro and RER stations. The luggage storage facility a few doors up the street was very handy when we arrived several hours before the flat was available. We were 4 adults and found the space comfortable. It would be a bit tight for 6, I think. Thank you Maria for sharing your flat and being so helpful, both before and during our visit!

Great apartment and Fantastic location

Maria was excellent and a very caring host. Our arrival was very late as a result of French transportation workers strike. Maria worked with us and made sure we check-in even-though we would be checking in at 2:30 in the morning. The apartment was just as described and very welcoming and homey. We enjoyed every day. The location is perfect for shopping and site-seeing. You walk out the front door of the building and turn to the left and there is the Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Paris and the river. The apartment is on the ground floor with one bedroom down 3 steps and the other bedroom up about 10 steps. Having 2 bathrooms with daughters made my life less stressful. We loved it and will be back. My wife is already working on another trip.

About the host

Hosted by Maria

Host profile image
My husband Maxim is french and I am italian from Prosecco's region.
We like meeting people, this is why we like being hosts.

Why they chose this property

You will live the experience of being in the oldest part of the city, where the architecture is full of history.
We choose this place because of its special "soul" as it belonged to the gothic Bernardins College of the 13th century.
The high volume and its old stones magnified in the living room remind us the history of the place.

What makes this property unique

The flat has two bedrooms with two bathrooms. The guests sleeping in the living room (on folding sofa bed ) has access to the downstairs (two steps down from living room level) bathroom without disturbing people sleeping in the downstairs bedroom.
