About this property

Apartment in the shade of Notre-Dame

In the heart of the Latin Quarter in the shade of Notre-Dame, the comfort of a modern apartment mixed with the charm of an 18th century building.
This apartment is ideally located to explore the narrow historic streets, the monuments and other secrets of the old Paris. In 1481, in this street, the first Faculty of Medicine has been opened. 50 m away is the oldest tree of Paris.

Halfway between the RER B and C, the underground lines 1, 4, 7, 10 and 11 and many bus lines, forget your car and reach within less than 30 minutes any site of the capital.
Close to all amenities, there is everything you need. Why not enjoy breakfast with fresh products from the market of Place Maubert? Our big kitchen is perfectly fitted to cook delicious meals.

What if, this afternoon, you enjoyed a cultural trip along the Quais de Seine? The second-hand book sellers will maybe sell you this much sought-after book that is missing in your collection. Unless you prefer walking until the Sainte-Chapelle, Panthéon, Arènes de Lutèce or the Pont des Arts facing the Louvre?
In the evening, try the French gastronomy with these great restaurants only a few steps away from the apartment. Unless you prefer the comfort of our living room, comfortably seated on the sofa while watching a good Blu-ray or zapping between the hundreds of French or International channels.

At night, discover another atmosphere and the fresh air of Paris nightlife. During your strolls, maybe you will lose yourself in this labyrinth of narrow streets or maybe like the hero of “Midnight in Paris”, you will end up at the foot of Saint-Etienne-du-Mont Church watching these coaches from other times.
Tango, rock and roll, lindy hop, blues, etc. 5 minutes on foot, on the Quais de Seine, come see couples dancing outdoors to the catchy music. Maybe you will join them on the dancefloor.

Once back home, after a romantic stroll under the stars and the lights of Notre-Dame, you will get some quietness.

After this long day, get some well-deserved rest in our 2 double bedrooms that we specially equipped for your convenience and to ensure the best quality comfort.
On the first floor of a building with lift, the apartment offers a 75 m² surface area
The kitchen is perfectly fitted with its 4-ring induction hob, oven and dishwasher. You will also find a large refrigerator, a coffee machine, a toaster, a microwave, all the necessary utensils, dishes and crockery for 6 people.
The bathroom is equipped with a bath with shower. There is a separate toilet
The 2 bedrooms are equipped with high quality furniture and bedding
In the living room, the leather sofa is convertible into a double bed to sleep 2 extra people. The dining area with its large dining table seats 6 guests.
This apartment is the ideal place to spend both relaxing and culturally enriching holidays.

What a great place to stay...!

The apartment is perfectly located with access to cafes, restaurants, the majority of core visitor sites for Paris (very easy walking distance to Notre Dame and the Louvre), quiet, and perfectly equipped for two or more visitors for any length of stay. The hostess was very communicative and thoughtful, meeting us there upon arrival and assuring that we knew where everything was, and how best to navigate the area and the city.

Superb stay for family fun and culture

I stayed here with my wife and 2 tweens for 5 nights in August during our first family trip to Paris. We chose this location for its proximity to museums and other attractions, and it didn't disappoint. The area is fantastic, with many interesting cafes, restaurants and other places to explore, and the Place Saint-Michel metro station is just a short walk away. The apartment itself is very clean and quite spacious, featuring two good-sized bedrooms—one with twin beds, perfect for the kids. The kitchen is fully equipped, though the abundance of nearby cafes and restaurants meant we seldom cooked. The living room is also a highlight, complete with a nice TV, books, games, and even a piano, which was nice so the kids could keep up with their practicing. The host was great. They met us when we checked in and quickly responded to the few questions we had. We would definitely love to stay here again on our next visit to Paris!

Central, clean and very practical

Just stayed for five nights at Mme Quach's apartment. Although steps away from a super busy area (Notre Dame and the Seine), the apartment is tucked down a side street that made it feel calm. The apartment is loaded with practical amenities - enough shelf and closet space, everything you could want in the kitchen. Mme Quach gave a very thorough and useful intro to the apartment. The beds were medium firm. Very efficient (quick) Miele washer and dryer were appreciated. Loved the location. Easy second floor walk up never felt like a grind, even after a long day of walking. Be sure to find Isabel's boulangerie - the best croissants we had on our two week trip.

Comfortable apartment in a great location

My sister and I had a wonderful time in this apartment. We were met by Chau and her husband who gave us a thorough run through of the apartment plus fantastic tips for getting around and where to find the best baguettes and croissants. The apartment itself was clean and had all the amenities you would want. If you are concerned that, being in a highly popular tourist area, that it might be noisy, do not worry. Not only do the bedrooms look over a private courtyard, but they have double glazing plus outside blinds that assist in the blocking out of sound and light. Having a lift in the building is a bonus when checking in and out. If I return to Paris I would not hesitate to book this apartment again.

Paris stay

Central location but because the apartment sits above a noisy, late night restaurant, it made sleeping very hard. Construction across the street (very loud)starts at 7 in the morning. If the windows are closed and aircondioning turned on, it sounds like you are in an engine. We needed ear plugs. Bring (lots of) bug spray if you keep the windows open.

Four Nights in the Heart of Paris

This property is excellent -- comfortable, convenient and friendly. M. Quach and his wife went out of their way to make our visit a success, even though it was very brief and we arrived late. We were a group of six -- 3 generations of family. All of us slept deeply in air conditioned comfort on some of the best mattresses I've encountered. We did a little cooking for the kids but took advantage of our short visit to eat out mostly. (We did notice that the food was better when we got away from the rest of the tourists, but even that nearby was good and varied.) Quach offered us maps, suggestions and directions. His wife waited for us to arrive. Neither of them could have been more helpful. We, the elder generation, preferred walking and cafe visits as we've seen many of the "sights" at other times. The younger generations used the Big Bus to make a rainy weekend into an adventure. They visited numerous sites, getting out and exploring several each day. The kids came back with excited stories of what they'd done. Despite M. Quach's warnings, my husband was pick-pocketed by a seemingly helpful group of 4 young men at the Metro St. Michel. We were not yet aboard with the rest of our family when the doors began to close. One young man reached over my head and held the door politely while others were hurrying us on board in friendly fashion. My husband felt the hand and grabbed it, but the wallet had already been handed off and that team member had disembarked. It seems that a zipped pocket isn't a safe place for a wallet. Tuck your money and cards under clothing and in more than one location. Take only one credit card with you with cash for the day. Leave your dollars elsewhere. The property itself is lovely and sparkling clean. They had a tray of glasses and juice for our arrival. If you’re hauling too much luggage or heavy groceries, or if you’ve walked enough miles already when you get “home,” an elevator takes you to the apartment level. If it’s hot outside, the air conditioning is excellent and efficient. There’s a garden below with conversational groupings of comfortable seating. Although the apartment is around the corner from busy streets and cafes, the sounds are muffled. Want greater quiet? The electric, roll-down shutters stop all noise and light. The shower was full, very hot. The washing machine and drier are modern and efficient. A big “thank you” to M. Quach and his kind wife. Gary & Alison

Great spot

We enjoyed the apartment very much. It’s in a great location for sightseeing and touring, easy walking to many things and close to metro. The Big Bus Tour stop is literally right around the corner - We are ordinarily not tour bus types but it was perfect for us as we were with our kids and it was nice to get off our feet. Comfortable beds. Air conditioning! And a spacious kitchen with all of the dishes, pots and pans, utensils etc for dining in. My husband loved the Greek Pita gyro style sandwiches in the neighboring Latin quarter restaurant row and kids loved all manner of crepes for another easy and inexpensive dinner option close-by. Quach is helpful, hospitable, and kind.

Fantastic Stay in Paris!

This was our family of 6's second stay in Quach's lovely apartment and it was fantastic! Quach is a very gracious host! Her apartment was spotless and she had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The apartment is so well located, right near Notre Dame, and is walking distance to many museums and sites. There are also metro/RER stations nearby. The "best croissants in Paris" bakery(La Maison Isabelle) is located a short walk away, as are grocery stores, nice restaurants, and amazing Latin Quarter street foods. Despite it's proximity to the bustle of Notre Dame, the neighborhood where the apartment is located is very quiet and safe. When we return to Paris, we hope to stay in Quach's apartment again!
