This was my third trip to the Marais area but first in Nathalie's beautiful apartment. We came away from our holiday loving Paris even more. Centrally located, near a beautiful park, lots of restaurants and cafes and close to the metro. Also very close to a Velib bike station, which I highly recommend as a way to get around the city (Nathalie also provides Velib passes for you to use, so handy).

We arrived in late from Brisbane, but the check in process was so easy. Have to go up one flight of stairs to access apartment but this was no big deal even with four suitcases. On arrival, fresh flowers, bread and croissants plus the daily essentials in the fridge.

The apartment is beautifully appointed with vintage collections from Parisian markets. The bed is great, and the bathroom is adequate. Big window by the bed and in the lounge room to look out onto the streets. Dishwasher, washing machine, iron, stereo system all great touches.

All in all, a very pleasurable stay and would certainly return, or recommend to family and friends.
