We rented apartment 34 for 5 days in May. The location is great, but a wee bit noisy as it is in the heart of the city on busy roads. The apartment is very very small. I thought it would be ok for us as a young couple. But it felt very clostrophobic and we needed to flatten the couch... More

This was a studio apartment and was nicely done. The location is excellent except for the day care right next door, so in the afternoon, and for most of the late afternoon, the kids are outside playing all day. The mattress is not comfortable. The carpet has a smell to it which needs to be fixed. They only supply one... More

I would give this a 3.5 if I could. The location, about 50 meters from the Louvre Rivoli metro stop on line 1, is excellent. I love walking places and using public transportation. It was so easy from here. The apartment is on the 7th floor. You can take the tiny lift to the 6th floor, if you trust it,... More

Dear Librahi, Thank you so much for your comment. I'm glad that you enjoyed the location, which is effectively prime property in Paris, being right next to the Louvre. I am sorry however that you found that the apartment was small, but to be fair, it is our least expensive one bedroom apartment and we clearly state that it is... More

I rented an apartment from these guys in March, and the whole process from start to finish was simply flawless. I was able to email through my questions beforehand and book everything over the internet (very handy when you're coming from another time-zone, half way aroudn the world). I was met prompty at the agreed time at the apartment, and... More

After trying different options when staying in Paris, I discovered Special Apartments. Their site offered character accomodation throughout Paris and prices which seemed competitive. Two years later and based on personal experience plus feedback from work collegues who I recommended to use Special Apartments, my overall appreciation is AAA. First A for location, character, space (a real luxury in Paris!)... More
