My husband and I were anxious that the apartment would not be as good as it looked in the photos, so we were overjoyed that it was even better than we expected. The renovations to the apartment were modern and the space was used well. The kitchen and bathroom fittings were of the highest standard.
When we arrived we were welcomed and shown around the apartment and informed of everything we needed to know. The location was fabulous; we loved walking, shopping and eating in Le Marais area. It was fantastic going downstairs to the patisserie each morning for our croissants. We felt very at home, we didn’t have any issues during our stay and didn’t want to leave! We have recommended Special Apartments to our friends and look forward to returning to Apartment 045 on our next trip to Paris, hopefully soon!

We are still travelling, now in Bali. Hence the lack of a note before this. It has been all schedules and itineraries. But we loved our time in Paris, thank you.
This was our third stay with Special Apartments. I can’t imagine Paris without one of your homes away from home. We wandered down to the Ile one day specifically to see how the paint job was on an earlier rental. We look at maps in light of possible apartments!
You have become our starting point when we plan. We hope to see Paris again through one of your windows!
Kind regards and thanks to all the team.
Special hello to Geraldine and Regis

I was booked into your apartment Nr. 036 from 10 – 13.06.2011.
Unfortunately I was not present for the full duration, due to aeroplane engine problems. This means I missed 1.5 days of my stay with you, which was very unfortunate.
However, my shortened stay in your apartment was pleasant. I also found it to be quite central, so all directions were easily accessible.
Since I have not accomplished what I was going to do, I will need to come back at another stage. It is good to know, that you are inviting me, as your guest, to visit your apartment again. Thank you
Regards
Gudrun

Thankyou for your email. We’re happy to reply. We think your website is wonderful; easy to navigate, lots of information clearly available, and the prices were well advertised so we could choose the best place that we could afford.
We really enjoyed our Marais apartment. It was well appointed, excellent location, value for money, and attractive. The book of information they left was very helpful. One of the restaurants they suggested was excellent and very reasonably priced. Le Carre des Voges and have the baby vegetables with shaved white truffle! Yum!

The apartment on Rue D’Arcole was quite lovely. We felt like Paris natives. Very comfortable bed in the bedroom. The pull out sofa bed was not great but then again, they never are in Paris. Our son and his girlfriend slept on the sofa bed and they seemed to get by just fine.
Although touristy, this is a great central location that enabled us to walk north, south, east and west and see all of central Paris. Easy walking to Ile St. Louis meant we ate dinner at a different restaurant there almost every night. We amazed our friends with pictures I took of Notre Dame north tower filling the kitchen window. There was never a need to set an alarm clock as the bells started peeling at 8am sharp every day. Not sure I’d want to hear that every day for years but for our 8-day stay it was quite romantic and enjoyable.
I will definitely use Special Apartments again on our next visit to Paris. Your service from the initial booking on the Web to follow up emails was very professional. Thanks for your attentive service.

As I often say to Regis, his service is outstanding in every way. I recommend your apartments to all my friends and I understand a few have taken up the suggestion.
I visit Paris annually and Special Apartments are unfailingly perfect for my needs! Thank you!
By the way, as I boarded my plane at Orly I remembered that I had not emptied the bathroom garbage bin in #45. I hang my head in shame … sorry!

we had a great stay and would return in a heartbeat. Location great, building/apt style was as described and perfect for our needs. I liked the access and location instructions which were spot on. All in all perfect, it made our Paris holiday.
