This was my fourth trip to Paris. Solo traveler - eight days in mid April split between Esmeralda & FDL. Do not hesitate to book either listing. Perfect location (exit six RER/St Mike has an elevator if your worried about luggage). I read the prior comments & experienced no issues whatsoever. Noise? There is a bar but I was not kept awake and would not even comment on it had I not read the prior comments. The view of Notre Dame is priceless. If you can’t decide between the two Esmeralda has that balcony vs FDL just feeling a little bit more luxurious. I enjoyed staying in both units. Michael is a nonpareil!!
Book now. I’m so happy I did & will never regret staying in Paris with that view!
The perfect croissant is only a few minutes walk away at the boulongerie - La Maison d’Isabelle. Perfect row of shops, bread, wine, cheese & deli.
