THE PROPERTY
Duplex Apartment in the most prestigious area of Paris : the Saint Louis Island, next to Notre Dame.
LOCATION
In the heart of Paris and near the Cite island, the small Ile Saint-Louis (Saint-Louis island) is one of the loveliest districts of Paris.
A veritable haven of peace in the heart of the capital, the island Saint Louis has remained almost intouched since its renaissance at the beginning of the 17th century. Noted for its exceptionnal beauty and tranquility, Saint Louis is where native Parisians go in order to escape the noise and the stress of the city. It thus offers an ideal starting point to discover the charms of historical Paris and romantic strolls along the banks of the Seine.
Walk from Notre-Dame to the Ile Saint-Louis through the garden at the back of Notre-Dame. The island is best accessed from the Cité island on foot. Look for Bertillon, the best French ice-cream maker, at 31 rue Saint-Louis.
The closest metro station to the Ile Saint-Louis are Saint-Paul, Cité and Pont Marie (less than 10 minutes walk).

We stayed in this beautiful apartment over 1 year ago, and it was only when I was strongly recommending it to my friends I have revisited this site and felt guilty that I hadn't made an entry at the time for it was just the best place to stay. We felt so French, my husband daughter and self. We have stayed on the island before and will only stay there from now on, simply the best location, and this apartment if still available after all the deservedly wonderful things said would be our first choice. We stayed in January 2008, we love winter in Paris, and walked everywhere from our apartment, at night came home, sat over a bottle of wine and cheese bought from the shops 2 mins away, relaxed and planned our next day. Perfect.
Thankyou

Bonjour Giancarlo! Wanted to thank you for such a great 8 night stay in Paris! Your apartment was unbelievable: surpassing our already high expectations. The location is not to be beat. We slept wonderfully in the King sized bed. The kitchen and bathroom with all the modern conveniences made our stay especially comfortable. The best part was your friendly personality and the flexibility you provided us from start to finish. Thank you for being so kind! We feel very lucky to have found you on the web and will certainly spread the word to those we know visiting Paris. Au revoir!

from Phileas Fogg Dear Giancarlo
Your concern and warm attention to our wellbeing is
something we will never forget. As you know, we have traveled and enjoyed Paris
over 20 times as ardent tourists during the past 25 years. In all that time
no fine Parisian hotels or rental apartment managers has paid such caring
attention as you have shown to our comfort and needs.
This two week visit to Paris was special
because of your attentive warmth plus the eycatching surroundings of the Ile
St-Louis and the River Seine to enjoy each time we went outside. Add to that the
elegance of your newly refurbished and outfitted apartment along with
comfortable furnishings. You made the three of us, my wife,my 16 yr.
old grandaughter and me feel like extra special guests.
Your special doctoral care and help with my need to
carefully attend to my medical condition was a miracle for me. I cannot
compensate you enough for your sacrifice of time. Relinquishing your
own rest and adding to that the letter you developed to help me on the
plane..... I cannot help thinking of you as a special saint. You are certainly a
special person who had entered our lives and helped us while we were in
need.
Giancarlo, please make it a point, the next time
you are the States.....stop in to see and stay with us in our home. Be sure to
call us at least and if possible we could meet you somewhere here in Florida. We
will be in New York city the first week in December!
