We very much enjoyed our stay in Colette's lovely, characterful flat in Montmartre. Communication with Colette both before and during our stay was straightforward. She arranged for someone to meet us at the flat and promptly responded to a query during our visit.
The location is superb - right in the middle of beautiful Montmartre but among real Parisians. We enjoyed pretending we were Parisians too!
Our girls (aged 8 and 10) had the bedroom while my husband and I took the bed in the living room, which we found very comfortable.
Colette has a large and eclectic mix of artwork and travel souvenirs around the warm, cosy apartment.
There was plenty of hot water and we made good use of the washer/dryer, which worked very well.
The kitchen was small so cooking up a feast would be a challenge, but there are lots of good restaurants in the area (we especially enjoyed La Mandigotte on Rue Lepic, but make sure you reserve a table). There also isn't a lot of space for unpacking bags (we were there for eight nights), but I guess it's difficult to allow for that in a small apartment.
There's a park across the road with a playground for young children.
The apartment building was noisy at times - sound carries through the walls and floor/ceiling - but our sleep was only disturbed by neighbours one night. The rest of the time it was very quiet at night. There was building work each weekday but it didn't start till after 8am and was finished by the time we got home each afternoon/evening.
I would highly recommend Colette's lovely Montmartre apartment. Thanks for having us stay in your home, Colette.
