A great location for families. La Villette - a big park with a science museum and concert halls is a 20 minute walk - and there are play areas and restaurants along the canal a short walk away. Montmartre & Pigalle are a 40 minute walk or 20 minutes on the metro; the sights of the centre, 40 minutes on the metro. A biggish Carrefour (for the city) is nearby if you need to self-cater. The balconies in the flat are great for a morning coffee (or an evening wine) and the greenery is lovely. Being up high also means you avoid a lot of the urban noise at night down below. The kids enjoyed watching the Disney channel in French. Jean-Marc was a very attentive host and arranging things was seamless. We’d stay here again if possible.
