Thank you, Natalia and Christophe for another exceptional Paris stay with Guest Apartment Services…read more(GAS). We rented for five weeks this time and were treated so well by Natalia who took care of everything for us. GAS provide apartments in the center of the city so you won't miss anything that Paris has to offer. They are so welcoming and accommodating, I feel like I'm being greeted by family (only nicer LOL). We keep coming back to this company because they keep excelling.

We had a reservation that we were very excited about enjoying in April of 2020, but France closed…read moretheir borders and we were not able to go. Disappointed, we asked for a refund. Guest Apartment Services issued a voucher that referenced a law passed in Paris to help hoteliers by allowing them to hold deposits. The voucher said, "In accordance with the provisions of this order, if this voucher is not used within eighteen (18) months from the date of issue, the customer will be reimbursed for the original amount deposit payment." We were not able to visit during the 18 months and requested the full refund. Christophe Chastel replied, "we can refund now 50% of your original deposit rental." This is in complete violation of the voucher that they issued. The business is not trustworthy unless they do give us the full refund as promised.

I was surprised there are eateries on the multi-level tower. I visited at night and the view of the city illuminated below. There are stairs and an elevator with separate ticket prices depending which option you choose. I took a star off because the man selling the tickets was rude. Grumpy people should not be working in tourism.

Once there, champagne is available for purchase and we absolutely had a glass. It just added to the romantic vibe. We took the elevator all the way up but could have opted to walk. If I remember correctly, I believe the ticket price to take the elevator was just a tad higher. Of course it's a must-see for first time visitors as well as return visitors to Paris. Bucket list for so many.

We hit the jackpot in finding this little studio. Inside it was pin-drop quiet, perfect for…read moresleeping. Yet when we stepped out the front door we were in the middle of the bustling Left Bank neighborhood of Saint-Germain-des-Prés, with patisseries and shops and galleries by day and a lively night life along cafe-lined blocks with indoor and outdoor dining, imbibing, and people-watching. The place at 29 Rue Mazarine is situated at a crossroads of quaint streets where Romans lived; where royalty dined (and some met the guillotine!); where politicians and intellectuals from Voltaire to Franklin debated in restaurants; and where today there are no less than two Michelin-starred restaurants on our block! Well-worn stairs lead from the building's half-millenium-old stone foundation to the fourth-floor walkup studio, which has all the fascinating and funky aspects of a building with stories to tell: the exposed beams, the scent of old brick; the convoluted pipes and wires and minuscule storage space. The place was a bit rough around the edges, for sure; amenities and elbow room were spare. We didn't mind! The price was extremely reasonable, the bed was comfy, the teeny kitchen functioned just fine, and the shower water was plenty hot. It ticked the boxes for us. Like all the locals we met, our landlord, Thierry, made us feel truly welcome. He replied promptly to our questions and provided helpful information about logistics, eateries, navigating the city, etc. It's hard to imagine a better spot from which to fan out across the city. Walk two blocks to the beautiful Seine, and cross the famous pedestrian bridges to the Louvre and to Notre Dame, a 15-minute stroll at most. Incredibly, there are three clean, well-lit Métro stations just blocks from the studio, with trains arriving reliably every few minutes! For three weeks in the early spring, we traversed the city, immersing ourselves in art, architecture, and history: twice at the Louvre, as well as at Musée d'Orsay, Musée Carnavalet, Musée de l'Orangeries, Musée Marmottan, plus so many churches palaces and churches. A breathtaking day trip to Versailles was a 40-minute no-change train ride away. We got to know some lovely servers at Café d'auteur, Le Mazarin, Maison Sauvage, Café Paul, Café de Paris, and Smith's Bakery! We ate at Procope, the city's oldest restaurant, and many other wonderful eateries all over the city. And on days when we'd exhausted ourselves from walking, we simply dined on baguettes, cheese, and wine from shops around the corner, including the organic grocery store right next door. Having an affordable place to stay in a perfect location allowed us to relax and enjoy the city's magnificence. We definitely would stay at 29 Rue Mazarine again! -- Susan and Warren

STAY AWAY from this place and this man Mr Thierry Farcy, at all costs!! Mr Farcy redirects…read morecustomers from VRBO to his own site locationgite-paris.com, under the guise of "I will save you some money in fees". Luckily I speak French and had local friends to advocate for me, regarding what I experienced during my one month stay here in February 2023. And I can imagine the nightmare it would be for those who don't even speak French or even first timers to Paris. After being rerouted from VRBO site, I fell into the trap of Mr. Thierry Farcy (the proprietor/landlord of the studio 29 Rue Mazarine). We signed a contract together (through his own rental site), and I reserved this studio for 28 nights with this seemingly charming rental in the neighborhood I cherish and know quite well. I then discovered not only RAT INFESTATION thoughout the building (Rats at night making noise all night, heard from my 4th floor window), which I reported to him but to no avail. He did not seem too concerned about my question as to why there are rodents down in the courtyard keeping me up at night. And then one night, as I came home, I literally found this rodent crawling away in the kitchenette area and it was already night time, and this just put me over the edge. In a panic I relocated to a hotel down the street (something I really did not want to do). And this man did not even care to return my deposit or my request for unused remaining nights, making my entire rest of my stay a nightmare as we went back and forth on emails. He tried so much to smooth things over, and then made it seem like I created a problem for him and not the other way around. He really showed me the worst of the worst of Parisian attitude. I took the case to town hall and even hired a lawyer. Renting a unit that YOU KNOW has had past RATS and RODENT ISSUES is illegal by law in France. He continues to list this property as we speak, which is mind-boggling, and I have reported this to the local authorities. I even took it up with a lawyer. Just be aware. Don't let what happened to me happen to you. Look elsewhere at all costs.

The second protest on Saturday 11/24 turned Champs Elysees into Lebanon. Stayed at Fraser Suites which was right in the heart of the protests. The hotel is great for staging your sightseeing and shopping excursions. The staff were professional, courteous and attentive. Alpha is a saint. Not only did he assist us with our heater and tv during our stay but when the hotel was plumb smack in the middle of what appeared to be a war zone he accompanied our family and others through the melee to the hotel which included tear gas cans being fired at protesters within a few yards of the front door of the hotel. And, then he escorted my wife to a restaurant and made sure she had safe passage and returned with food when Champs Elysees was on lock down. He is an incredible asset to the hotel and is a fine example of everything good about Paris and Parisiennes. Merci beacoup Alpha and Fraser Suites!!
