Tha apartment
was spotless! The bathroom was huge!The location was perfect! Close to 3
metro stops! Stone throw away to Louvre and Tuileries Garden. Once you
step out you are in the middle of shopping heaven. Marie was a good
contact. Will stay again! Highly recommended!

Well-designed,
well-equipped and clean home. It is very good to stay and take a rest
after a intensive day in Paris. Marie thinks everything for visitors;
information about Paris, books, booklets even English known doctor phone
number. There is a double-sized bed, armchair, table seats, well
equipped kitchen, comfortable and clean bath. The flat is so close to
Louvre museum(about 3 minutes), Tuileries garden, metro(M1) and also
other metro lines, cafes and etc. It is a great option couples.

Very pleased
with our stay. Location was near perfect for access to sites, metro,
shops, cafes, etc. and apartment was very comfortable and well appointed
for our needs. Any complaints would be nitpicking. Would definitely stay
here again. Marie made check in easy and directions for use of apartment
were well laid out.

Charming and
cozy apartment perfectly located 2 blocks north of the Louve. Marie was
terrific to work with and we can't wait to use the apartment again.
Building has a cafe right on the corner and we used yelp to find some
amazing restaurants within a few blocks. Great food, great wine, great
place. What's not to love.

The place was
great! Only a couple blocks from the Louvre. The AC was definitely a
plus on the hot Paris nights. The bathroom was pretty modern, and has a
great tub/shower.

Beautiful
apartment, so comfortable for me and my friend to stay in. Perfect
location, the surrounding area is stunning and it's so easy to get
everywhere in Paris from there.. Especially by walking! Make sure to go
to the back elevator/stairs, as there are two. Marie was also a great
host, as she was very responsive and provided a guestbook with
comprehensive instructions and recommendations.

We have initially chosen
this place because of the location which can not be matched.
It is so central, on a major shopping street. You are in a short walking
distance from Louvre, Opera, Tuilerie, Concorde and Place Vendome.
The apartment itself is very functional and thoughtfully planned.
The historical St Honore street is very busy, but the place itself is very quiet
as it faces the backyard.
I can easily recommend it to couples for a romantic escape or just for shopping
as this street is full of boutiques.
Communication with the owner was easy and seamless.
I shall certainly comeback.

We stayed at the St. Honore apartment in Paris.
The location is very good, less than a block from Pyramides metro and 5
minutes to Louvre. There are plenty of good cafes and restaurants, very good
shopping. The apartment itself was very nice and clean. It was about twice
as big as a Paris hotel room. Very comfortable for a couple. It had all the
amenities you would need. The staff was very helpful and pleasant. I would
definitely recommend this apartment for your stay in Paris. |

We stayed at the Ste.-Honore
apartment in the first arr. I had a wonderful visit. Having a kitchen to prepare
quick meals saved time and money. More space than a hotel for a nice rate. This
was my first time renting an apartment. I would stay in one of this owner's
properties again.

After touring Spain and France
for a 4-week period, it was a pleasure to be able to settle in at Isabelle's
apartment in the heart of Paris. We could have not asked for a better location,
close to the subway, and many tourist attractions, minutes away from the
apartment. And, the elevator was most appreciated!
As for the apartment itself, it was very clean and attractive, and stocked with
all the amenities needed for apartment living. The bed was comfortable and the
living quarters turned out to be ideal for the two of us. Instructions for the
use of the appliances and electronics were clear and complete.
We were very impressed with the entire experience from the beginning to the end:
from when we first inquired about the apartment, to the instructions on how to
enter and leave the apartment, and then the prompt return of the safety deposit.
Every aspect of our stay was handled with care and professionalism.
In closing, the next time we visit Paris, we will definitely want to stay at one
of your apartments. Be assured that we are spreading the word to family and
friends. Thank you for a wonderful stay! The memories live on!

My wife and I stayed at
Isabelle’s apartment and it was fantastic. The location was perfect for our stay.
We were close to all of our must see sites in Paris. On our first day, we walked
to Notre-Dame Cathedral and were able to take a brief tour of this wonderful
cathedral. That’s how close the apartment was to everything. Not to mention that
the Louvre is a couple of blocks away. The metro stop (Pyramides) is a short
walk and we were able to catch the train to visit Versailles (less than an hour)
trip. With the location of this apartment, we were able to walk to Notre-Dame
Cathedral, Sainte-Chapelle, Louvre, Orsay Museum, and Orangerie Museum. We took
the metro (Pyramides-Stop) to see everything else on our list. Isabelle also
supplied the apartment with many amenities such as towels,
iron/iron board, wireless connection, extra blankets, AC, dishes, and detailed
instructions of how to enter and leave the apartment. Isabelle is such a
professional when booking this apartment. She responds to our emails quickly and
returned our deposit a couple of days after we left the apartment. I also want
to mention that Isabelle was only a phone call away to answer any of our
questions in regards to the apartment. She was there every step of the way
during our booking, entering and exiting the apartment. I know many people are
hesitant about booking an apartment through the internet. But you should put
those fears to rest when dealing with Isabelle. She is very professional and
will answer any questions you may have concerning your apartment selection. I
certainly plan to use Isabelle’s apartments
again. If you have any questions regarding my experience, feel free to email me.

We just came back from the St.
Honore apt in the heart of Paris just a block from the Louvre. Close to 3 metro
stops, a Monoprix (like Target) for groceries and incidentals. Very safe
building. Apt just right for Mom and teen daughter. It was great having the
kitchette for breakfast at our convenience. We even made a few dinners when we
had a late lunch out. Thanks for a great experience!

My stay at Isabelle's St. Honore apartment was
awesome! It was my first time reserving through VRBO and any concerns I had were
quickly put to rest. Isabelle was prompt in answering any queries I had and she
carried through on all her promises.
The location was very convenient to all amenities and the apartment was exactly
as depicted in the photographs. I was also travelling on my own and felt very
safe at all times.
I wouldn't hesitate to contact Isabelle again for future travels.

The Saint-Honoré apartment was dreamy. Fabric
covered walls, loads of natural light and a really large bathroom with bench
seating, heater and deep soak-in tub. And if you bother to cook the kitchen has
everything you need. We did use the coffee maker with exotic grounds purchased a
few doors down from Café Verlet.
This is my second opportunity using IsabelleApartments. When we arrived
Isabelle's assistant came by to make sure we were comfortable, had what we
needed and showed us how use the electronics (Wi-Fi, TV & Phone) and our very
own washer. Also the St-Honoré location is surreal. You are one block away from
the Louvre and the Jardin Du Tuilleries. On a sunny day it's a perfect location
for a picnic or nap on the grass with statues of past royalty and Greek
mythological figures watching over you.
Famous cafés like Les Nemours and Café Marly are nearby and so are good value
restaurants like Le Cordonnerie and Higuma. Shopping is insane; Nearby are
TheKooples, Colette, Longchamp, Repetto! And Galeries Lafayette, Printemps are a
ten minute walk away!
Already I'm planning my next trip to Paris and I'll definately be using one of
Isabelle's apartments and recommend you do the same.

We stayed in Isabelle's Saint Honore apartment.
Isabelle was very easy and helpful to work with. The apartment was perfect,
everything we needed for our stay in Paris. It really made us feel at home.
Thank you Isabelle for helping make our holiday so memorable. We will be using
and recommending ISablle and her apartments again. |

Having rented Isabelle’s St. Honore apt last year,
my brother and I brought my 80 year old Dad to Paris for his birthday and stayed
at Isabelle’s Montmorency apt. It worked out great for us. The apt had
everything we needed – short walk to the metro, 3 bakeries within 1 minute walk,
a building elevator, comfortable beds, free international phone calls and much
more. We were delighted with everything and would feel very comfortable staying
at any of Isabelle’s apts in the future. Highly recommended. |

I stayed in the Saint Honore apartment on business.
I loved the apartment, it had a real French feel and the location could not have
been better. Lots of good restaurants and shops a short stroll away. The
apartment had everything I needed, was good value and Isabelle was a joy to deal
with. Will definitely user her services again. |

We stayed in the St-Honoré apartment and had a
great time. We had heard about Isabelle's apartments from our son who had stayed
at the Esmeralda in the Marais a couple of years previously. The St-Honoré was
quite compact except for the bathroom which was huge, but was perfectly adequate
for our needs being well-equipped, very well situated and very quiet. The
wireless internet connection enabled us to easily keep in touch with events at
home. Booking over the internet was very easy. Isabelle replied immediately to
our inquiries, her direction about finding the apartment and entry to it were
very clear and she was prompt in refunding the security deposit when we departed.
All in all we thought we thought that the apartment was a much better option
than a hotel room and we would be keen to stay in one of them next time we are
in Paris. |

I recently stayed in Isabelle's Saint Honore
apartment.
The location cannot be beat ... just one block from the Louvre and a short walk
to Palais Royale. It's also close to some of the best shopping in Paris.
The apartment was clean, and had everything we needed. And despite a slight
mis-communication regarding the lack of AC in the unit, Isabelle immediately
acted to make everything just right, sending her mother over with an AC for us.
We could not have asked for a better response. She delivered exactly as she said
she would, and we had a nice, clean place to stay, that also enabled us to cook
some of our own
meals, plus do laundry. Given a 2-weeks stay, this was very helpful.
Staying in an apartment was also more economical than a hotel. I don't have
daily maid service at home, so don't require it when I travel. Instead, renting
from Isabelle allowed us to feel like were weren't just visiting, but instead
were living in Paris for our stay.
I've recommended Isabelle's apartments to friends, and will gladly stay at one
of her places again, whether in Paris, Venice, or other cities where she has
places located. So I feel very comfortable recommending her apartments to others. |

This was a very nice apt which was conveniently
located to the Metro, Louvre, and shopping. We did not encounter any problems.
It is a small apt. and while it technically can accommodate 3 people, we found
the space was quite limited with myself, husband and teenage son. I think that
it is better suited for 2 people. I would happily stay there again. |

Bravo. To be feel at home at a different country,
the best way is to rent an apartment. Opps, please try the clean and spacious
one!!! Isabelle's Saint Honore is the ideal place for couples or single who are
on his/her solobackpaking. Don't worry about the culture gap or the language....
just kick the road and enjoy parisian life.
Isabelle and co.... Terima kasih(Merci in malaysian). |

Rue St. Honore is a very comfortable, clean
apartment with a bathroom big enough to use for a dance party. It is convenient
to major museums like the Louvre, d"Orsay, and Orangiere as well as two Metro
stops that will take you anywhere you need to go. Don't miss window shopping in
the nearby Place Vendome. We saved money eating in sometimes for breakfast and
lunch feasting on warm croissants, fresh baguettes, country pate and goat cheese
all purchased nearby. |
