I loved my stay at the Artisan Loft! The location is perfect -- off the beaten tourist path, but around the corner from some of the best french food we found in the whole city (Le Riche and L'Office). It is smack in the middle of the city, so you can walk 30 minutes north to Montmartre or 30 minutes south to the Louvre, and the surrounding neighborhoods are beautiful, safe, and authentically French. The loft itself was lovely, clean, and comfortable place to relax between excursions. We felt right at home there. We would love to come back for another stay!
