Isabelle was just as wonderful and plesant as her Marie-Antoinette apartment we rented. Both Isabelle and her mom were able to help us immediately with checking-in and with any problems we had. On my next trip to Paris, I will definately rent from Isabelle again.

02/24/07 Positive We stayed for almost a week at Isabelle's Marie-Antoinette apartment with our 7 yo son. The apartment was a good deal and exactly as described. The bed was very comfortable and our son slept well on the pull-out in the living room. Isabelle is a pleasure, and we particularly enjoyed our interaction with Mme Florac. Renting an apartment on-line is always a leap of faith. This is one aspect of your trip that is guaranteed to run smoothly.

P.S. The hallways were being freshly painted when we left. Wish could have stayed longer to see the result.

We stayed in the Marie Antoinette apartment near the Eiffel Tower for a week at the end of September. We found the apartment to be very comfortable and was exactly as advertised. It was so easy to get anywhere, and so nice to come home to, after a long day of walking and seeing the sights. I loved the location- it was a 2 minute walk from the metro and the RER. We didn't actually "cook", but we really enjoyed not having to eat all our meals in restaurants. We picked up some delicious cheeses, breads and meats at nearby stores for snacks, and ate all our brakfasts there, before setting off for the day. We never tired of watching the Eiffel Tower and the bateaux mouche glittering along the river at night. We felt very secure here- a keycode to get in, and very good locks on the door. Isabelle was a treat to deal with, and I wouldn't hesitate to rent from her again.

My husband, 2 year old son and I stayed in the apartment near the Eiffel Tower and loved it. I would highly recommend this for anyone including a family as there are many parks nearby, including a large playground. The metro is one block and a great line as most places we wanted to go were only one train exchange or less. Also, Sunday and Wed. mornings there is a large open market on Grenelle(3 blocks away) with everything from food to pashminas and shoes. We didn't meet Isabelle(as we were rarely in during the day) but her mother lives in the building and was very helpful including ordering us a taxi when we were leaving. It was a fantastic apartment with a great view and everything went exactly as planned! Thanks Isabelle - we'd love to visit again!

We spent 18nights in the Pompadour studio this summer. It was the hottest summer in history,but we were happy and cool thanks to Isabelle! We just adored the alcove studio. It was just charming!(and the bed was ok!) What a great location to everything from Franprix market to the Metro. The apartment is well equipt with just about everything you need. The elevator was a blessing since Paris is the ultimate stairmaster!
Thanks for taking such great care of us Isabelle! :-)

What a marvelous time we had in Paris! I was a bit leery of reserving apartments over the internet, but we could not be more pleased with Isabelle's Eiffel Tower apartments. Both of us couples were celebrating wedding anniversaries, and it was so nice to have a comfortable, private, and relaxing "home away from home." The apartments were lovely and had everything we needed. They were conveniently located, and it was so easy to travel the metro to get to ALL the sights we wanted to visit. We spent our first night in a Paris hotel (3-star) and then came to our apartments. What a difference in accommodations! It was so nice to have more than just "a room"...a place to fix our picnics or have company over... It was so relaxing to just sip wine and enjoy the view of the Seine. What a great way to visit! We will definitely be renting an apartment again with Isabella!
Merci!

We stayed at the Marie Antoinette apartment in Paris for one week at the end of April and were very pleased with the apartment. It was very clean and was even nicer than the photos on the internet site. The view was superb. Isabelle and her mother were very helpful and we
will definitely stay there again.

We enjoyed the Marie Antoniette Apt, right on the Seine. We found this apartment on the internet "Craigslist". It was just as it was described. The location was great, the bakery was within walking distance for our morning delights. We took along our 2 kids (ages 13 and 11). They especially loved it because it was within a couple blocks of the Eiffel Tower. We had a wonderful trip...thank you.

Dear Isabelle & Christine Mar. 10,2006

We returned recently from the most wonderful 10 day trip to Paris! We atayed in the Marie Antoinette Apt that is just a short walk to the Eiffel Tower and Champ de Mars Park!!! This is a fabulous home base from which to explore all Paris has to offer. We were a short 2 block walk to the Metro stop and found it so fast and easy to see all the sights. We even took a day trip to Versailles and the RER "Vick" got us there in 30 mins. This lovely Apt overlooks the Seine river and the tour boats parade by at night all lit up, it was just a short walk down to the river to catch one of these "batamouches" in the evening for a memorable cruise. Paris truly is the city of light, especially at night! Very romantic! All the wonderful museums Lourve, Orsay,Marmottan are something everyone should see in their lifetime! The people we met were very friendly and could speak better English than we could speak French. A special thank-you to Isabelle who knew we would be celebrating a special occasion (Doug's 50th birthday) and had fresh flowers and a bottle of champagne waiting for us on arrival! Her mother Christine came to visit us to answer any questions and sent her handyman to come the following day to fix a small problem we had with our bathroom sink. This was done very promptly with no hassle whatsoever. We loved our stay and would not hesitate to recommend this Apt to anyone!

I stayed for ten days in Paris in an Eiffel Tower apartment, my in-laws stayed two floors above me in Isabelle's other apartment. I had a fabulous time. Location was great, Isabelle is wonderful (thinks of everthing) and I will be back. It was especially nice to be part of the local scene and not a "tourist" in a hotel like the trip I made three years earlier to Paris.
Thanks you Isabelle!

We had a wonderful week in Paris and enjoyed staying in the Marie-Antoinette apartment very much. It was a wonderful "home base" to come home to every evening. Most evenings, we just relaxed with a light supper (after having a good lunch), planned our activities for the next day, and watched the boats go by all lighted up on the river. Plus, two evenings, Mike was treated to football (soccer) games with the French national team on the TV.
It's a very romantic apartment...

Isabelle's Eiffel apartment is a very romantic place to stay-- it was central to a special event, as I proposed to my girlfriend nearby. Isabelle had told us when we arrived that the Eiffel "twinkles" at night, and on Aug 14 at 11:01 PM (when it started twinkling) we were on the top level, taking in the wonderful night views, and I went down on one knee and proposed. Needless to say Nancy was surprised, excited and elated! We made our way back to the beautiful apartment where we celebrated with champagne... So who knows? Maybe we'll come back for a honeymoon, or at least an anniversary-- I can't imagine a more romantic place in Paris. We felt like Parisiennes, living the high life.

I fell in love with Isabelle's apt in the Eiffel district as soon as I saw it on the Internet. I knew exactly that was where I wanted to stay. It was within walking distance of most things & if not, you were only 2 short blocks away from the Metro. The apt. was very spacious & clean. Isabelle was very flexible in my arrival & dept times unlike most hotels. Also, She is very helpful in giving directions and advice. I really enjoyed myself & am looking forward to returning to Paris & renting from Isabelle again.

We arrived back in Canada safe and sound, our trip to France was very enjoyable. There are so many highlights, I can't pick out one thing that was the absolute best. One thing Joey and I agreed on was our trip to Arromanche and the Normandy landing beaches was very very nice. We enjoyed Sabine's tour, and she was able to show us so much more than we would have seen on our own or on a big bus tour. Thanks again for allowing us to stay at your apartment.

I stayed at Isabelle's one bedroom Eiffel Tower apartment from early January to mid-February this year, and absolutely loved it! Beautiful, conveniently located, and very tranquil. Isabelle (and her mother) were of great assistance and an absolute pleasure to deal with, and I would urge anyone considering renting a vacation apartment through her to do so! Thankyou so much for all your kindness!

My husband and I have stayed with Isabelle twice at her Eiffel Tower apartments. We have enjoyed every minute; the apartments were very comfortable,and the view is exceptional. The location is perfect for seeing all the sights, but we liked being a little out of the way too.
We loved the view of the river, during the day or at night, it was delightful. And Isabelle is a darling, and so was the concierge!! Best place to stay in Paris!

Bob & I rented the apartment in Cannes and 2 apts in Paris, the Effil Tower and the Lourve. They were both great but we liked the convenience of the Lourve, with walking distance of all sights. The Effil Tower apt is accessible by train to all sights except the Effil Tower itself.

We bought resident passes for the trains using our passport picture which were good for a week, I think. Ask Isabelle, she'll know. I think we did about all of Paris, ate wonderful meals, the Latin Quarter is inexpensive and the street food was great. We stayed in Paris and also the Cannes apt. We rented a car for Cannes and traveled most of the southern coast in France doing day trips. We also took a train to Normandy and did a day
tour with Battlebus, which was great and stayed in a great bed and breakfast.

Isabelle is very honest and fair and although we were apprehensive doing business on the internet, it was great.

We had a wonderful week at Isabelle's Marie Antoinette apartment by the Eiffel Tower. We really enjoyed staying in an apartment rather than a hotel. It was so comfortable, and quickly became our home away from home. It was very well equipped, and we really didn't lack anything we needed. It was close to shops for food, and just a 2 minute walk to the metro and the RER, where we could get to anywhere we wanted to go. We loved being close to the Eiffel Tower- every night for ten minutes on the hour, it twinkles with hundreds of little lights. When we were home, we'd go to the little park across the road to watch.
Isabelle was excellent to deal with- always quick to reply by e-mail or phone to any questions. Her English is very good. There is a book in the apartment where guests leave their suggestions, and where Isabelle has left lots of useful information (like an English speaking taxi company). Her Mother was living in this building, and she was a very nice lady as well. I think this little apartment was a big factor in making our holiday so memorable.

Wow ! The Marie Antoinette is a cosy and private bijou apartment for two incurable romantics, almost on top of the Eiffel Tower and in a great part of town. It's certainly NOT one of those cold, impersonal hotels (thank God !).

We booked direct via Isabelle's website ([--]), after being recommended this apartment by Australian friends and we were not disappointed.

The inclusions were many, the apartment spotless and good value for Paris.

The ability to self cater (for those days when you are just too knackered to sample the local restaurants) was a bonus. The small kitchenette was well appointed for it's size.

There are heaps of local services just around the corner (train station, cosy cafe's, restaurants, boulangeries, and some well stocked supermarches).

Isabelle the owner was a delight to meet and was genuinely interested in making sure ensured we were happy with our stay.

Thanks Isabelle !
