Jean-Phillippe's townhouse is perfect, just as it is described, really delightful and safe. The Montage area was new to us but we realise now is so close to everything, easily walking distance to the Grand Palace. Mostly it's all older streets and residential mixed with restaurants and small shops. There were many fewer tourists on this side too, but still the streets fill up after work hours with locals eating and meeting etc. It's a perfect location to stay in.
