"Don't take our
word for it..."
Below is a small sample of the many testimonials sent in by guests. “We had a delightful
time and we loved the Left-Bank-rue-Cler apartment. It was very
comfortable, well-appointed, clean, quiet, and spacious enough for
four people. It had the little amenities that you don't get in a
hotel. The apartment was convenient to the metro and shops, and in a
fantastic neighborhood. Excellent value for money. We'd definitely
rent it again. It was a nice way to spend a week and get a feel for
Parisian life. No more hotels for us!”

"Dear Cécile (owner),
Staying at your apartment was very nice and cosy. If by any chance I
come back to Paris, I will stay in your apartment again for sure. I
really felt myself at home. The location is just perfect (the
Hotel de Ville metro stop, two minutes on foot from the
apartment, was particulary convenient) and the open market down the
building was full of delicious french food. I don’t have any
complaints regarding my stay there and I will be more than happy to
recommend your apartment to my friends."

“The A la carte experience was excellent from start to finish.
The Monttessuy apartment was perfectly located adjacent to the
Eiffel Tower, close to Rue Cler market, the shopping strip on Rue
Saint Dominique and walking distance to many noteable Paris
attractions. The layout of the apartment was perfect for two singles
travelling together (or for a couple), with enough space to relax
and have some privacy. The patisserie located on the corner is one
of the best in Paris, and the neighbourhood is removed from the
tourist strip, which makes it very pleasant indeed. I would return
in a heartbeat to Paris and Monttessuy - our Paris dream really did
come true!”

'Our most sincere thanks to you, Cecile (owner), for the
crowning jewel of our trip to Paris was staying in your apartment.
Everything about the apartment was first rate. Clean, spacious, with
a warm contemporary décor, the apartment was especially inviting.
One of the best characteristics of the apartment is that it made us
feel right at home, like it was our place, not a place we were just
visiting. The next best feature of the apartment was its location.
In the heart of the Marais, we were in easy walking distance of so
much of what Paris is famous for. The bakery on the corner was a
perfect way to start the day. In the evening, the variety of
restaurants on our street alone gave us choices to suit everything
from down home eating to elegant dining. Yet we were not on a busy
street, so there was little traffic noise, just a lot of charm.
The well written little reference book answered any questions we had.
Cecile, you set up the apartment so we immediately felt like we
lived there in Paris, not like we were tourists and that is what
made our trip to Paris so special. We recommend this particularly
wonderful apartment without any hesitation and hope to return to it
again.'

“Looming ahead of me was one of the world's greatest
monuments...the Arc de Triomphe. As I rounded that perfectly
proportioned and graceful monument, I was thrilled with anticipation
knowing that my apartment was just steps away! I rented a lovely
one-bedroom apartment on one of the "spokes" of the Arc de
Triomphe's wheel, Avenue Mac-Mahon, minutes from the Champs Elysees.
Upon arriving, a bit jet-lagged, I was greeted at the door by the
impeccable Bruno Wagner, Director of A La Carte Paris Apartments.
Champagne, fresh flowers and fruit awaited me. Contemporary
furnishings and interesting art filled the apartment. Best yet,
Bruno connected my laptop to a fast internet hook-up at the work
desk. With a courtyard-facing exposure, my apartment was very
quiet--yet located within a local Parisian neighbourhood filled with
boutiques, patisseries, cafes and the necessary ATM!
On a practical level, I had a wonderful experience renting through A
La Carte Paris. All my pre-booking questions were answered promptly
and professionally. My expectations were met with regard to the
apartment and its amenities, which were lovely. I would happily rent
with A La Carte again, having perused their website for their
apartments in the wonderful arrondissements of Paris!”

"I am so thankful to have found the Latin Quarter Pantheon apt
on your site - it was such a wonderful place to stay and it truly
enriched our Parisian experience! The location was central to
everything (truly, some spectacular restaurants within 2-3 blocks in
all directions). I felt like I was staying in the apt of a very
close friend - this apartment is spacious, comfortable and welcoming,
with all the amenities of home!"

“We loved our little apartment in Paris and enjoyed our check
in and check out visits. I have already spread the word here at work
about your excellent service and have a little coincidence to share.
I remember when reading the blurb on the apartment that it mentioned
details and photo's of the apartment had been sent to a design
magazine. Well guess what - here at work (Fletcher Building) we
advertise in NZ architecture and design magazines and VOILA - the
newest mag on the streets down here is "homestyle" and there is a
three page spread on "our little apartment" My eyes just about
popped out! I will get a copy and get it over to you guys unless of
course you already have one...
Not sure when our next little sojourn will be - Clive is back to New
York and Anchorage for the rest of the year and who knows what next
year will bring. But you will be the first to hear.”

“It was a pleasure staying at the Etoile apartment! I found the
apartment very comfortable and roomy and nicely decorated and liked
especially the location close to the Arc de Triumph and the
Champs-Elysees. Everything is in walking distance, which is very
convenient. I found also the apartment set-up to be very safe with
the locked doors.
And last but not least, your assistance during my stay was
outstanding and very very helpful.
If we come back to Paris, we will certainly stay there again.”

“I would like to tell you again that we had a fantastic stay at
the St Martin apartment while we were in Paris in July. The
apartment is so central and you guys have been very helpful. Will
definitely use your service again. Am recommending your service to a
friend who is thinking of going to Paris next year!
Thanks so much once again.”

“I arrived at the
Verneuil apartment with my 23 year old son from Australia. The
apartment is in a very quiet street and only 100 metres from the
main area in St Germain. I had the best sleeps in many years. Great
apartment with everything you need for a week in Paris.”

“I wanted to drop you a quick note to again thank you for your
unmatched hospitality. More importantly, you should know that your
business plan is phenomenal and i've pretty much decided to change
the way I travel from now on. This place gives me all the comforts
of my own home and none of the otherwise bizarre alien processes of
an expensive hotel.
The amenities and care you've packaged into this apartment and into
your service have led to a so-far continuous series of pleasant
surprises or "just what i need" moments, including: the most
comfortable bed i've ever slept in (including my own), a DVD copy of
Cannonball Run (silly, but a relic of my childhood), a deck of cards,
a pasta strainer, a box of haricot verts, and a roll of electrical
tape (I only needed a small piece).
My fiancée and i have agreed that this place turned our trip
completely around and the past days have been some of the most
memorable we've shared. it may sound simple, but i guess what i'm
expressing is that you really can't overrate the benefits of "home"
even when you're traveling. You understand this and have made this
possible more than anyone, anywhere i've traveled (and i've done
quite a lot in the past 6 years).
Bravo. Standing ovation. Encore.”

“I would highly recommend staying with A la carte Paris
apartments over a 5 star hotel. Rather than returning to an
unpersonal hotel every day, it felt like coming home. Also, the A la
carte team was very helpful and professional and made my experience
a pleasure.”

“I really liked your apartment and services – and I have used
others in Paris. I liked the way all your staff were English
speaking. Although you were on hand if required, I was left alone
and not bothered once I got there, which was nice. I loved the
appartment and the info packet on restaurants, shopping etc. Bravo
and I will definitely recommend you and use you again!
Thank you so much.”

“Monttessuy is a tastefully furnished apartment in the very classy
7th arrondissement. There are splendid views of the Eiffel Tower
from our street. This is the second apartment that we have rented
from A la carte Paris and we feel that the price + quality of both
apartments is good. Service with A la carte Paris is top notch. They
deliver what they promise. The team is bilingual and very
professional and helpful. You really feel at home and your stay in
Paris is much more enjoyable.”

“The perfectly central location is extremely convenient to all
facilities a tourist may require and an ideal base from which to
explore Paris on foot. The apartment is well-presented,
well-equipped, comfortable and homely with nice personal touches. My
family and I found A La Carte most helpful and reliable in all our
dealings. We will unhesitatingly recommend them to our friends when
visiting Paris and look forward to staying with them again ourselves.”

“Greetings... David and I had a very wonderful stay at the
Verneuil apartment. Thank you again for a most enjoyable few weeks.
We do like this area so if there are any new places available, do
let us know. We return to Paris on a regular basis. Thank you again.”

“This apartment has an excellent interior in terms of layout,
furnishing and design. Great value for money. It is also the best
bed I’ve ever had in a Paris rental. The local neighbourhood guide
booklet was also wonderful – the best I’ve ever seen. To sum up, for
service, convenience, recommendations, and orientation to your
neighborhood and its secrets, A La Carte is the best service we have
used in 10 years staying in Paris. It’s a home away from home and we
will use them again!”
Parham R. Fox

“The A la carte service is very good, and one which makes for a
much better experience in Paris than a hotel room. Both apartments
that I stayed in were accurately presented in the A la Carte
materials, and I would whole heartedly recommend using this service
to anyone traveling to Paris for an extended stay. In particular,
the St Martin interior and location were both excellent.“
Kim Funk

“We have used A la carte twice and the service has been
excellent. We particularly loved the St Martin apartment for its
fantastic location and stylish decoration. Highly recommended.“
Gemma White

“The Left-Bank-rue-Cler apartment was perfect - from the
comfortable robes on our bed and chic interior to the promixity to
the Metro, shopping on rue Cler and outstanding views of the Eiffel
Tower peeking around every corner. The apartment was clean, quiet
and filled with beautiful and clever artwork throughout. Excellent
value. We had everything we needed to feel like fashionable Parisian
residents during our stay!”
Chris Boutée

“My wife and three daughters rented the Grenelle apartment for
Thanksgiving week and had a wonderful time. First, the apartment
location is excellent. Having the Rue Cler right around the corner
was a wonderful asset. We could walk out our door and choose a feast
from a wonderful assortment of beautiful food shops in only minutes.
There were also many nice local restaurants and we even discovered
an Irish pub. At night, after dinner, we could take a ten minute
walk to view the lights on the Eiffel Tower. The Ecole Militaire
metro stop is just a block away, but the apartment location is so
great that we found that we could walk virtually anywhere we wanted
to go. The apartment itself is very comfortable with wall to wall
carpet, good heating and high speed internet access. It is on the
third floor but the elevator works fine. The kitchen is small but
quite serviceable. We cooked several meals for six. We have only
good things to say.”

“I'm recommending A la Carte Paris to all my friends going to
Paris. The apartments all have a sense of style and quality which
makes them appealing. One can find a great apartment without
spending hours searching internet sites. I stayed with my family at
"Grenelle" in July 2005. The apartment was just as represented on
the web-site. We loved the decor. The sitting room and each bedroom
had opening windows onto the street which gave a very Parisian feel
and was great for summer weather. The rue Cler food market below was
sensational and some great local restaurants if you did not want to
cook in the apartment. We will be back!”

“Rue Cler Apartment provided a great base from which to experience
Paris. Its location was excellent (fresh baguettes from the bakery
across the road every morning was a treat), and the contemporary
decor was warm and comfortable. Location excellent! Proximity to Rue
Cler markets a definite drawcard.”

“Linda and I would like to thank you for your professionalism,
courtesy, and assistance in making our
recent stay at the Etoile apartment so enjoyable.
We have rented Paris apartments for years and your service is
clearly the best.
Thank you.”

“The Monttessuy location can’t be bettered. All services are
nearby and accessible. We found the people in the area and building
friendly and helpful. It felt like our own home in Paris. The only
problem was we didn’t stay long enough!”
