We really enjoyed our 5-day stay with Simon on Île Saint-Louis in beautiful summer weather. The location of the flat directly on the Seine with a view of Notre Dame is fantastic - even though there are of course still scaffolding and a crane on Notre Dame at the moment, that doesn't detract from it. And it was so relaxing to return to the idyll on the Île Saint-Louis in the afternoon or evening after the hustle and bustle of the city. The island with its galleries, delicatessens, small shops and nice cafés and restaurants is absolutely charming. At the same time, it is the ideal starting point for many sightseeing attractions. Simon gave us good recommendations for restaurants and even texted us daily to check if everything was to our satisfaction. It was especially nice that we were allowed to leave our luggage in the hallway of the flat for a few hours longer on the day of departure, so that we could stroll around the island and the Marais one last time. And if you have the chance: Do not only try the fantastic Berthillon icecream and sorbets on the island, but also the ones of Amarino, which are shaped in the form of a flower and which we liked even better! We hope to return soon and will definitely ask Simon if we can book the flat again.
