This is a genuine 5 star hotel experience. No exaggeration. There’s so much to praise about this Airbnb and the host.
For starters, the host went out of her way to coordinate a high quality chauffeur to pick us up from the train station on arrival, and also to drive us to the airport on departure. The chauffeur was especially nice since we had our 20 month old son whom obviously still requires a car seat. Since we learned that traveling with luggage and strollers on the Paris Metro (subway) is rather difficult, we were so grateful for the host to setup this travel for us. It was a huge stress relief.
The host continued to go above and beyond by personally recommending many restaurants and shops that we ended up visiting. She even showed up with a little gift for our kiddo on departure. Again, such an amazing host experience. I have never had service at such a high level from any hotel.
The apartment (flat) itself is beautiful and is in a wonderfully convenient and safe part of town. We walked to the Arc de Triomphe in 10 minutes, and could get to breathtaking views of the Eiffel Tower in less than 15.
The two bedrooms in the flat are both comfortable, but one is considerably larger than the other.
The kitchen was stocked with every accessory you’d possibly need, and we were also provided a great crib for our kiddo to sleep in.
I could easily go on about how great this experience was for our family. But to summarize - a legitimate 5 star hotel experience. We would go back tomorrow. And we would absolutely recommend this place to anyone or any family visiting Paris.
