About this property

FULLY RENOVATED very quiet charming 2bed/2bath flat in the Marais sleeps up to 4

This beautiful apartment (" Le Pied-à-Terre") has been recently renovated, combining period features with all modern conveniences. The high ceilings with the old, exposed wooden beams, the wooden floors and the black and white marble in the bathrooms make it truly magical, giving you a true Parisian feeling.

It is located between two courtyards, on the second floor of an 17th century house in the heart of the Marais, making it very quiet and even allowing you to sleep with open windows.

The apartment's layout and its size (75 square meter/800 square foot) will provide you with ample space to relax and to enjoy your own privacy. Ideally suited for two couples or a family with children, the two bedrooms sleep 4 guests comfortably. One bedroom has a four poster, king size bed, whilst the other has 2 single beds with unique bed-stands (all mattresses are new) . The finest Egyptian cotton linen has been chosen for your comfort and pleasure. Both bedrooms have their own bathrooms (one is en-suite and the second one is opposite the bedroom), equipped with 1940's style fittings, black and white Carrara marble floors and Parisian Metro tiles. There is also a separate toilet. High quality face, hand and bath towels are provided. Each bedroom has got a powerful avant-garde silent Dyson (AM08) air cooler.

The sitting room is very large and has a mock fire place with many candles, antiques, modern art, leather chairs and a designer sofa, dim-able lights - a perfect place to relax before or after exploring Paris. The chef's kitchen has been designed and equipped to enable you to cook a wonderful meal. It has a lovely, large white Carrara marble work area and faces the dining area which has a stunning 19th century wooden table which can sit up to six guests. A large Freud retro style fan is at your disposal.

Naturally Pied-à-Terre has modern independent heating in each room, including the bathrooms; free high speed wifi; flat screen TV, Netflix, Apple TV, DVD player, DVD library, books, BOSE docking station, washer drier, microwave, induction hob, traditional oven, Nespresso coffee machine, kettle, toaster and dishwasher You can make free landline phone calls to over 150 countries.

This property is located in the heart of the Marais, the most vibrant arrondissement of Paris, in walking distance from many attractions like the Centre Pompidou, the Picasso Museum, Place de Voges and even Notre Dame. The neighbourhood boosts many nice restaurants/brasseries, organic stores, patisseries and the flat is only 5-10 minutes walk away from the famous covered food market "Les Enfants Rouges" were you can buy organic fruit and vegetables, lovely fish and great French cheese.

The closest Metro station is Arts-et-Metiers 5 minutes away from Pied-a-Terre and buses and Velibs (bicycles that can be rented daily or weekly and are a great way to explore Paris) are close by. However, given Le Pied-à-Terre's central location you will most likely explore Paris on foot. The airports and the main train stations can easily be reached by public transport or by taxi and you will receive all information you need when you book the apartment. A manager will welcome you, show you around the property, give you the keys and provide you with valuable tips. He is of course available in case of emergency or for any questions you may have.

For guests who would like to come with a car, the nearest parking is located less than 150 meters from the flat and is called: "Parking Temple Alizés". Should you wish to book in advance, you get discounts using this website - http://www.parkingsdeparis.com/
Don't hesitate to come back to us if you need help on this.

Wonderful apartment and location

We stayed with our 21 year old granddaughter for a week. she had her own room and bathroom and the apartment was more than adequate for the three of us. Being in the Marais put us close to many of the sights in Paris either by walking or public transportation. There is an excellent bakery across the street and markets at the end of the block. It was easy to work with the owner and the manager.

Paris apartment accomodations

Great 2 bedroom, 2 bath apartment. Loved our stay and the location was perfect. Next time we are in Paris we will definitely try to stay there again. The apartment was quiet and had everything we needed. We highly recommend this apartment. One thing to mention is that the stairs are steep, which was not a problem for us, but an elderly person may have. Thank you for a great stay!

Nice flat in the neighbourhood.

My sister in law and I had a nice stay. The beds are comfortable and both bathrooms are clean. We did not expect the stairs to be as steep, fortunately Fayçal was there to help with our bags. They do not provide shower soap or other toiletries so bring your own. Very convenient to a butcher, bakery, cheese shop, fish monger and wine shop! The flat is good value for money! Thank you, Ivan and Fayçal.

Wonderful Pied-a-terre in a great location

We had a wonderful stay at this spacious pied-a-terre in the Marias neighborhood. The apartment is in walking distance to many wonderful shops and Nortre Dame as well as a quick walk to the Metro. The street that the apartment is on has a Boulangerie, cheese shop, and butcher among other shops. The property manager met us immediately upon arrival and was available to answer and any and all questions during our stay. The apartment was very clean, spacious enough to comfortably fit four adults, beds were very comfortable and bathrooms were quite spacious for European standards. We loved our stay in Paris and highly recommend the Marais neighborhood!

Great apartment, great location.

We’ve been renting from VRBO for years and this was probably our best rental to date. The apartment itself is beautiful and the attention to details made our stay even more enjoyable. And the location was great too...a straight 15 minutes walk to Notre Dame. I highly recommend this unit.

Best place to stay in Paris

The apartment is lovely and comfortable. Every detail has been well thought out. The kitchen is one of the best equipped I have ever experienced. Beds very comfy and very little noise. Location is perfect. And Fayçal the manager is the most attentive and thoughtful agent. He greeted us with champagne and dropped by a few hours later with a beautifully selected cheese plate. He greeted us upon arrival and carried luggage up the 2 flights. I also left an expensive watch behind which he found in time for us to make a quick detour back to apartment. I look forward to returning.

A wonderful place to stay

This was a charming flat in the marais with attention to detail. Comfortable beds with nice linens, slippers provided. Ivan and Faycal were welcoming, even ordering Nespresso pods for us to have on our arrival. Faycal was very helpful answering our questions and making sure our transportation got us to the train station on time. We hope this flat is available on our return trip!

Lovely apartment in quiet neighborhood

This was a wonderful apartment in a nice neighborhood, centrally located in the city. Thierry was very welcoming and helpful and the apartment itself was very nice - all of the small touches made it feel like home! We also stayed during Europe’s record heat wave and we couldn’t believe how relatively cool the apartment stayed. We very much enjoyed our stay here!

Great location and wonderful stay!

This beautiful apartment is in a great location and is well equipped for anything you need. The stairs are narrow and we had one night (in five) where we heard neighbors talking until late. Otherwise, it was very quiet. I would definitely recommend this apartment. Great host and owner with good communication before our stay.

Great apartment for our week in Paris.

We really enjoyed this apartment. We are a family of four with two adults and two kids ages 11 and 16. The setup of the apartment with two bedrooms, one bedroom with queen bed and one bedroom with two twin beds was ideal, as was two full bathrooms. The apartment was charming and nicely decorated. The location was good and not crowded or touristy. We enjoyed a number of the restaurants and cafes in the neighborhood during our visit. The apartment is convenient to the Arts and Metiers metro station.

Ivan and Thierry, who maintains the property were both lovely to deal with. The apartment was cozy, clean, beautifully decorated with modern conveniences.

Comfortable and Quiet Apt in centre Paris

We really enjoyed our stay at Ivan and Stephan's flat in Paris. It was ideally located near many of the popular tourist sites, shops, and restaurants in and around the Marais. The apartment was well equipped and had very comfortable bedrooms, living room, and dining areas. Moreover, it was a tranquil oasis in the midst of the bustling city. We had absolutely no problems with noise as the apartment faces an inner courtyard--away from the street. We will definitely be back on our next trip to Paris!

Marais charmer

The apartment exceeded our expectations. It was spacious and very well located. Near everything but very quiet. It was well appointed with a very good kitchen and a lovely basket of wine and treats when we arrived! The style and decoration is tres charmant with the exposed wood beams. The second bathroom was quite helpful as we were traveling with a friend. Everyone involved in the apartment was helpful and pleasant to deal with. Merci pour tout!

About the host

Hosted by Ivan

Host profile image
As a child, I lived in Versailles and Paris was the city of my dreams. When I finally moved to Paris I loved exploring and savouring this wonderful and vibrant city. I always wanted to own a traditional Parisian apartment in the city centre.

My dream came true in 2004 when I purchased this property whilst living in London. I enjoyed visiting Paris regularly and staying in my apartment.

I decided to renovate the property totally and to give other people the chance to share my passion for this incredible city. Having said that, I love the apartment so much that I often visit and stay in it myself.

Why they chose this property

The combination of 17th century Parisian charm, antique furniture, exposed beams, all modern comforts, the location, right in the heart of the Marais ,and the fact that it is incredibly quiet make the apartment unique.

The kitchen has been designed an fitted to satisfy any hobby cook and the proximity to food markets and typically French food stores make it very easy to prepare lovely meals.

Being in walking distant from so many major tourist sites and being surrounded by wonderful places where one can eat and drink without having to use public transport makes it a perfect base for a short visit or a long stay.

The manager will take good care of you ensuring that you receive the best customer service and, as a local, he can give you wonderful recommendations.

What makes this property unique

Totally refurbished; incredibly quiet - sleep with your windows open in the summer! Central location
