We have used Special Apartments on our last three visits to Paris, and cannot speak highly enough of their attention to detail. The online booking was easy, arrival instructions were very comprehensive, and the Representative was at the apartment to meet us when we arrived. The apartment had everything we needed and was brilliantly located close to the Metro, food... More

We rented apartment 27 for a week in May. The apartment was in a great location and was very clean and safe. Customer service was great. The apartment photographs larger than it is. It was a tight squeeze for 2 and it would be unworkable for the recommended 3 person maximum. The furnishings were of poor quality: the couch was... More

Dear Shane, Thank you for your comments! I'm so glad that you enjoyed the apartment location and appreciated our customer service. I'm surprised that you feel that the apartment photographs larger than it is ( http://specialapartments.com/nazareth_marais_apartment_to_rent_paris.html ) , I actually take the photographs myself and really try to make them in a way that are as true to life as...

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

Dear Lulypockets, Thank you so much for your feedback. I'm glad you were pleased with our service and that you enjoyed the location. I suppose you mean that the area downstairs is a bit noisy, because it is really the closest you could be to the historical city center, being right next to the Louvre; the apartment itself, being on...

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

Dear DRT1404, Thank you for your comments. We're so glad that you enjoyed the apartment and found it nicely decorated. I'm sorry that you didn't appreciate the children playing in the afternoons below next door; many guests find it charming, but I can understand if it may have been bothersome for you. I'll look into the carpet smell; it was... 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.

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
