11 Reviews of Property 408314 in 5th Arrondissement Latin Quarter, France

We have been delighted with our stay at this accommodation.
The apartment is in an excellent part of Paris and adjacent to a lively and diverse pedestrianised area that we found most useful for breakfast baguette and evening meals. We enjoyed the opportunity to walk to many of the tourist attractions, which were within reasonable distance of this apartment.
The apartment itself is very well appointed, with all facilities of high quality and in full working order. The bedroom is very comfortable and both children enjoyed sleeping in the comfortable bed. If we had any complaint it would be about the sofa-bed but I am not keen on these at the best of times; such sofas either make good beds or good sofas, rarely both, and this one was definitely the latter.
Our host Olivia was extremely prompt with e-mail and provided us with all the information necessary for our stay.
I would have no hesitation to recommend this apartment to others and am convinced that we will return to enjoy the facilities again.

We have just returned from a short break at this charming apartment. The apartment is small but well thought out - there are 3 large windows that overlook the square, the pretty church and the street market below, where the hustle and bustle of Parisian life can be heard, and although one reviewer found this a little noisy - rectified by closing the windows, when the noise is virtually inaudable, we found it part of the apartments appeal, as felt like this was the authentic face of Paris. The Rue de Mouffetard that the apartment ajoins is colourful, particularly the bottom part where the flat is situated, and here we bought fresh croissants for breakfast at the bakery, fresh pasta at the deli, for dinner, fresh cheese a little further up still, and crusty french bread - all delicious, and easily cooked on the ingenious little kitchenette in the apartment, which houses a 2 ring ceramic hob, a microwave - no conventional oven- a built in fridge, and a neat sink and tap, with plenty of crockery. The top end of Rue de Mouffetard is plied with restaurants all vieing for your custom, Olivia kindly recommended a local restaurant to us, but in the end we just strolled up and found one that did a three course meal quite inexpensively - for Paris anyway, which you just have to accept is expensive for eating out, coffees etc - but provides very good value for money for transport and getting around. The Metro stop is just around the corner and 1 euro 70 takes you as many stops as you chose - we visited Sacre Coeur this way, and Luxemburg Gardens and the St Germaine area another day, but walked back as there is a lot to see strolling through the different areas. In St Germain we discovered the cafe where Picasso frequented, cafe Flore, likewise a nearby cafe, Deux Magots, strange name, that was a haunt of Victor Hugo and Oscar Wilde. Notre Dame is within easy walking distance - visit Shakespeare & co bookshop opposite, on the left bank, quaint and interesting re its proprietors. We walked to the Cemetery La Pere Chais which on reflection would have been better to have visited by tube - essential to buy the map from the guy outside as is very maze like, but although sounds macarbre was interesting to see the gravestones of Oscar Wilde, Edith Piaff, Jim Morrison, to name a few. So this apartment leant itself to a different view of Paris for us and fitted the bill perfectly.

This is a lovely centrally located apartment. It was just right for us. It could get a little noisy first thing in the morning but we would close the windows and bliss. Every thing we needed was either in the apartment or right downstairs. Olivia was super patient with our questions and ensuring we had someone wait to meet us at the apartment when we first arrived. I would love to come back and stay even longer.

Thanks Oliva and thank you Daniel especially since we were later arriving than expected.

I absolutely can not say enough great things about this apartment. The location is absolutely perfect, walking distance to many sites, close to a metro stop and food! The apartment itself is adorable, comfortable, clean and safe.

I can't imagine a better place to stay when visiting this amazing city!

This is a really special apartment. .
It is in a wonderful part of Paris and on very good metro and bus lines for getting around.
The apartment has three huge windows two of them looking out over a square with a church and a market, and there are fabulous food shops just round the corner.
My husband and I stayed here for 6 weeks and it was perfect. I still miss it!

This is a very quaint little apartment in the latin quarter situated above a book store. It looks just like the pictures. The bedroom has a king size bed that was quite comfortable. There is no air conditioning but there are 2 sets of windows that open and windows in the living room that open as well. The only challenge is the noise. It is very loud until quite late in the evening and starts up again early in the morning. That is all taken care of quite nicely with ear pugs. The bathroom is very adequate with great water pressure and lots of hot water. We had free WiFi as well. The kitchen nook is tiny but had everything we needed - fridge, hot plate, sink and microwave. We didn't do a lot of cooking as there was no need. There are lots of cafes in the neighbourhood. The Rue Mouffetard is amazing - lots of patisseries, cafes and shops and on Saturday when we arrived there was a farmer's market in the street. It is such an amazing and typical Parisian street. The taxi stand, bus stop and Metro are very close as well. We took a taxi to and from the airport and it was 50euros for the two of us. Not bad at all considering the distance. On our arrival we had someone there to meet us and explain how everything worked and where everything was located. We had no challenges coming or going. I would definitely recommend this apartment and would love to stay there again. Just don't forget your ear plugs!! :)

Very nice and perfect place to stay in Paris!
When we return we Will come back to this place because it was everything we needed. Comfort, rooms with typical parisian view, atmosphere, beauty and cosyness.

We really liked the apartment and the location was great. The only thing that really lets it down is that its pretty noisy and my husband did find it hard to sleep with all the noise (but I can sleep through any thing so no complaints from me!!) The noise is just because of the great location above cafes that stay open late and markets that start very early though.
The place was clean and very like the pictures, not luxury, basic but comfortable and homely. I would stay again but next time we'd be sure to take our laptop (free WI-FI fabulous but only on our phones!) as the TV only had a few channels in English which was a shame but hey, we didn't go for the TV! We managed to do a bit of cooking but there's not really much you can do but heat things on the hob or microwave. So unbelievably close to so many great food shops so amazing croissants every morning, yum!
All in all we enjoyed it and great base for walking / getting metro and exploring beautiful Paris.
