About this property

Live Like A Parisian

Charming apartment under the rooftops of Paris, calm, full of light, with an elevator for convenience.
In the heart of the vibrant Marais, the apartment is surrounded by rich history, renowned boutiques, famous cosmetics and perfume shops, restaurants, and cafés. It’s also the epicenter of Fashion Week, perfect for experiencing the city’s creative pulse.

The apartment combines elegance and character, with designer furniture and unique antique pieces for a warm, sophisticated atmosphere.

You enter a stylish living room with authentic designer furniture like Le Corbusier and old pieces of art and decoration picked from auctions or antique shops, mostly from the 1940s and 1950s.
You will also find plenty of architecture books, as my partner is an architect, which you can enjoy reading during a relaxing day off after wandering around the city.

The apartment is very comfortable for both relaxing and working, with high-speed internet.
The bedroom has a beautiful view of Saint Paul Church and the Parisian sky. The bed is very comfortable, with two types of pillows, including a firm one for those who prefer it. A large wardrobe is also available.

The bathroom is equipped with a bathtub, perfect for a long, relaxing bath after a day of exploring the city.
The kitchen, though compact, is fully equipped with a coffee machine, an oven, and a dishwasher.

A washing machine and dryer are available in my small laundry area on the same floor.

The apartment is located on the 6th floor, with an elevator that takes you to the 5th floor.

The building, beautifully crafted in stone, dates back to the 19th century.

I’ve provided a list of my favorite restaurants and pâtisseries in the apartment to help you explore the best culinary spots in Paris.

Bed linen, towels, tea, and coffee are all included for your stay.
The apartment is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can expect to find free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

We had a wonderful 4 day stay in this apartment. The location is about the best you can get in Paris half a block from Place des Vogues. The apartment is charming and the kitchen adequate for breakfast a perhaps a light supper - don't be planning real cooking in this spot. And why would you with the range of restaurants close at hand. Check in details were a breeze. The access is tight and steep. We are in

Mathieu was a terrific host, he communicated regularly and answered questions immediately. The place was perfect, comfortable and very Paris with great decor! Le Marais is a wonderful place to stay; very close to the Seine, Notre Dame, the Louvre and many other sites. Only a 3 minute walk to the Metro, it was so easy to travel everywhere. There are many great restaurants right in Le Marais that we did not have to leave the area for dinner. I would stay there again!

This is the place to stay in Paris! This wonderful apartment is comfortable, beautifully decorated and has conveniences that a typical hotel stay does not such as the kitchen and full laundry. The big windows open you up to the sights and sounds of Paris life. It is in a vibrant neighborhood full of boutiques, vintage shops, cafes, bakeries, markets, metro stations - everything you need. We walked everywhere from here! The apartment was also well stocked with necessities and a large collection of books in French and English to browse through. Le Marais is a wonderful area and this apartment is in the heart of it - you definitely feel like you are living like a Parisian in this home. The host is very welcoming and offers excellent information on restaurants and even put us in contact with a driver for getting to the airport without a worry. If you want to experience Paris life, this is the place to stay.

Back to Paris much, much later

As described. You buy your morning baguette go up make coffee and set out for the day. Averaged 15,000 steps a day for 14 days. Saw everything: start with the small museums (especially recommend Arts et Metiers and Madame Curies laboratory) Skip the Louvre. Buy a postcard..Superb location for walking. I often mapped a route of a mile or so, both walking and driving and driving sometimes took longer than walking. Really!No metro strike so all was perfect. Went to concerts and special timed events. FLV was fascinating with Hockney and his huge exhibit. Carnavalet around the corner. Musee d'Orsay now huge and a full day must see. Etc etc. Lived here as a student in 1962 at the Sorbonne and all the crazy 'manifestations'.

My husband and I stayed in this well appointed and perfectly situated apartment for five wonderful days in Paris. The location just steps from the Place Des Voges was the perfect place to start our morning in one of the many cafes. Two metro lines were short walks away and everything we wanted to see was easy to get to. Our host was so helpful and offered great suggestions too. We will look forward to returning.

Soul enriching stay

My daughter and I had a wonderful stay at this property as she settled into her study abroad program in Paris. This stunning Haussmann style apartment came with all the practical things you would want from a home away from home…comfortable bed, clean surroundings, terrific pillows, luxuriously deep tub with steaming hot water for soaking, etc. This property is in a spectacular location in Le Marais…just a stones throw from the Picasso Museum, the National Archives Museum, and the breathtaking Place des Vosges (which also houses the preserved Paris apartment of the legendary Victor Hugo). It is decked out stylishly, with lovingly curated items and inviting furniture. Perhaps my favorite features were the delightful south facing windows that streamed sunlight from morning until evening. If the beguiling streets of Paris had not been enticing me out, I would have happily sat with a good book and a coffee, looking out on the rooftops of Le Marais for an entire afternoon. As the property suggests, one could actually imagine themselves a “Parisian” while staying there. M. Forestier, is certainly a magnanimous and kind host who seems to love sharing his own passion for greater Paris, and Le Marais in particular, with visitors. It was such a privilege to be welcomed there.

Small but Beautiful

We enjoyed our 5-day stay in this tastefully decorated and very quiet one-bedroom apartment in a great location in the Marais, within a short walking distance to a least half a dozen museums and many small parks (e.g.Place de Vosges) and gardens (e.g. Mark Ashton Garden). I found several interesting independent shops around there, including two pop up stores selling women’s fashion made by young designers based in Paris, all selling at reasonable prices. Plenty of good restaurants nearby recommended by the host as well as by our friends and the Michelin Guide. All the furniture and items in the flat were carefully picked and put together, making for a calm visit. It’s a great place to stay for a couple who love Paris, museums, gardens, eating out and shopping.
