This was my second visit to the Louvre apartment and I enjoyed it as much as the first time round. A bit of an indulgence as I was alone for work this time and didn't need all the place (which was ample when there were five of us last time). However, when travelling alone safety is a consideration for me, so the central location and the reliable professionalism with how James and his team manage things are always welcome reassurances. It was boiling hot in Paris and the fully integrated aircon system was a blessing and worked perfectly which isn't always my experience in hotels. I would not hesitate to recommend Pad-a-terre and this apartment to groups of friends, families or even couples. James's Pad-about-town blog is also great and well worth a look, giving unique insightful tips about Paris from the perspective of a local.
