A real nest in the center of Latin Quarter : honey moon or family.

Located in the very center of the Latin Quarter, close to the famous Panthéon, charming Place de la Contrescarpe, Sorbonne University, Saint Germain and the gorgeous Luxembourg gardens, this apartment offers a unique opportunity:

• It is an exceptional deal: the apartment was designed with extra care to comfortably sleep up to 4 guests (1 queen bed and a comfortable sofa bed).

• The apt is located in a stone building constructed in the 1800s. It is on the 1st floor and offers a nice view above the square. The building was fully refurbished and redesigned by an architect in 2016. Four similar apartments sleeping for 3 to 6 guests depending on the apt are available in the same building.

The owners have preserved the traditional French apartment style with the beautifully exposed wooden beams. The apartment is super functional. They have also preserved the elegant French terra cotta tiled floor with a variation of colour and thickness in certain parts of the apartment. This floor style dates back to around 150 years, if not more, and is of great historical significance.

The apt location is a perfect base to visit Paris: based in the heart of the old Paris, in the Latin Quarter, facing Notre Dame, it is a very lively area.

Walk to “Rue Mouffetard” & “place de la Contrescarpe” to have an outside dinner, stroll in the nearby and beautiful “Jardin du Luxembourg”, “Jardin des Plantes” or “Arenes de Lutece”, visit the trendy Ile Saint Louis, Notre-Dame Cathedral, the Cluny Museum of Medieval Arts, the Pantheon, the Sorbonne university, le “Paradis Latin” Cabaret and the Saint Germain area. They are all steps away.

Stroll along the banks of the Seine, enjoy a drink on one of the many barges or dance Tango in the “Tino Rossi” square in summer before going to the Marais where are the best clothes shops of Paris. All at walking distance.

It stands 10 minutes by subway to most interesting Paris locations AND is a very charming area to be appreciated after a whole day shopping and walking through museums. One finds plenty of restaurants, shops, cinemas and many nearby cultural sites to visit.

Right down the building are located many shops, restaurants, bakeries, delies and more. We advise to try “Les Pipos” restaurant, typical traditional French food.

More about the apartment…

On entering the apartment, one is greeted by a small corridor that serves the bathroom to the right, then the kitchen corner, and leads to the living room area.
To take advantage of the light and volume, the architect has designed a great concept:

• A large living room opening on the square, which is indeed a very ample cosy space.

• During the night, guests can profit from 2 separate, private sleeping areas.
This apartment is a great place for a honeymoon, a family stay, or 2 couples.

The Living room offers a large double-glazed window that bathes it in natural light. It opens on the charming Place de l ‘Ecole Polytechnique which offers various terraces. No building blocks the view: it is open on the Rue de la Montagne Sainte Genevieve, and the famous and beautiful courtyard of the Ecole Polytechnique (host to many international conferences of researchers).

The living room offers a comfortable sofa bed and a center table, chairs and lights and TV. Wall is decorated with frames. The sofa bed is extra easy to open and of high quality for sleeping.

On the right of the sofa is located an open kitchen. It gives an impression of openness. The kitchen is fully equipped for preparing simple meals.

The bedroom with sliding doors offers a high-quality queen-size bed, a large closet and a window on the small interior courtyard. Once again it is furnished with quality equipment and decorated with frame.

The bathroom located at the entrance, is fully tiled and modernly decorated. It offers a large semi-enclosed shower, a vanity area and a toilet.

For information : As a bonus, Phone calls to land lines in France, and to US, Canada and Australia are generally free. It is also true for more than 50 countries. Moreover, calls to cell phones to specific countries (often US & Canada) may also be free. Ask us for detail as it may vary with time and policies of operators. WIFI is free and available in the entire apartment.

Great central location
Great location, central and walkable to many sights and restaurants. Responsive hosts. Definitely recommend! There are 2 lovely and lovely restaurants right outside. The only downside being right under the balcony and lively and loud until 2am. On hot nights with windows open makes it very difficult to get shut eye. We didn’t mind it as it just added to the lively Parisian feel and with the city awake we were out and about at those hours anyway. Mentioning here in case of young kiddos or those who want an early restful shut eye. Thank you for the great experience!

Really nice place with great location
The place was really nice and clean. It had everything we needed and love the area. I would definitely stay there again. The only thing stopping me from giving 5 stars is the delayed communication. It takes almost 24 hrs to get a response. I asked about the possibility to check in early and my questioned was ignored. Then I had to ask twice about checking out later because I didn’t get a response the first time. I asked because the checkout time is at 10 am and my flight didn’t leave until 5:50pm. I lost a day in France and it would have been nice to enjoy the morning at least and visit other places. I’m perfectly fine to get a no as an answer, just that the answered was that it was last minute request and that wasn’t the case or the best answer for a customers request.

A beautiful apartment in a great neighborhood, with easy access to the Metro. This is a lively area, and there is a bit of noise in the evenings - particularly on the weekend - but this is a welcome trade off given the great location. I would definitely stay here again!

A perfect flat for a couple
My partner and I stayed at the flat for 5 nights in early October and found it to be all that we needed for easy access to the Latin Quarter, le Marais, and St. Germain. It is a neighborhood dominated by students (as expected) and so the bars in the square below the apartment were lively late into the night. But with the windows closed, this really wasn't any problem. Very cool old building (the beams in the apartment are enormous!). We didn't cook in the apartment because we were in Paris ;) and there were just too many great options in walking distance.

Great apartment, great stay!
We had a great stay in Paris. The apartment has a lot of space which was perfect for our family of four. Super easy to walk and metro to wherever we needed, and the restaurants and bars downstairs are very cute. It does get loud at night as the other reviews say, but it was fine for us and it never bothered the kids. Overall, excellent!

Apt in the heart of student district
The apartment was very clean, just as described, very comfortable bed and very nice shower for European standards. Fully stocked kitchen, Nespresso machine with pods, dishwasher and fridge. Location is amazing, just feet from the Pantheon and Hemingway’s apartment and short uphill/downhill walk to three different Metro stops. However, the apartment is above two bars and Thursday-Sat night there is a large crowd (200+) with noise until 4am, including most people smoking which you can smell even with the windows closed. We really loved the apartment but would not stay here again because of this. It may be different in the summer when school is out.

Quaint and Cozy in the Quarter
My wife and I recently spent 4 nights in this great apartment in the Quatier Latin. The apartment is an excellent location off Rue Descartes and just steps away from the busy Rue Mouffetard. The apartment was clean and had everything we needed for our short stay. Jean-Noel was extremely helpful and responsive. We would highly recommend and certainly stay again.

Charming Paris apartment!
This was a really great place to be based. The apartment was really nice, in a great location, with easy access to transport, coffee shops, etc. I saw some reviews about the area being noisy, and while there is a bit of sound from the bars downstairs, it’s just voices chatting and having a good time rather than loud music blaring - I found it added to the happy atmosphere! I’d definitely recommend this for a visit to Paris.

Charming, great location but very loud
Charming, small yet practical. I would say it only works for a couple, ideally a young couple. It's in the heart of a university neighbourhood so it is very noisy on the weekends because of the restaurants. The stairs are rather old and warped. Someone can sleep on the couch but the noise will be very high. The small bedroom is quieter.

Amazing location, not for children
The location is perfect, easy walk to Pantheon and Luxembourg and like most areas short walk to the Metro. The beds are comfortable, small refrigerator for water/takeaways, and nice bathroom setup. We thoroughly our time in this space. Just be aware this space is above a cafe, with the windows open the smoke and noise is present until 2:30 and slightly beyond. If possible bring your own pillows and various paper products/bathroom items. There are shops close if you cannot for quick and easy purchase.

Very nice
The apartment was in a great location, lots of things to walk to, restaurants, shops, markets, etc. It was very clean and comfortable. It is above a restaurant so there is some noise, but nothing that kept us awake and since Paris is a big city a bit of noise was expected. It was fine for us. There was no hand soap in the bathroom, so maybe plan to bring or buy some, but that was fine for us too. Overall we really enjoyed the apartment and neighborhood and would definitely stay there again.

Great location and comfortable beds
We stayed here for a week during a family reunion in Paris. The location of this apartment is 5 star with direct access to restaurants, shopping, tourists site in the charming and vibrant student district of Paris. The apartment was fine in terms of size. The kitchen is so small you almost miss it - but that is typical of these apartments in Paris. The unit is worn and has been well loved. The furniture itself is adequate. Beds are very comfortable (even the pullout). The downside primarily was the noise which we are used to having lived in this area prior, but there is dance club close by which was very loud and we could feel the base in the music in our bedroom until 2am on 3 evenings. The street noise is ongoing but primarily people talking, eating, laughing. That said, even with ear plugs, the music and street noise was loud so I would caution light sleeps to perhaps stay in a unit on a higher level in this building. The amenities were bleak. We had to buy everything from hand soap to sponges to do the dishes, toilet paper and papertowels, shampoos and soap. So be prepared to do a grocery run at one of the local markets in order to get these essentials. There were enough pots and pans but only 2 forks and some of the drinking glasses were dirty. The shower leaks some if you don't close the door a certain way. And ask them to bring you more pillows and towels. The pillows were flat (only 4 for 4 of us) and we all had one towel and a few hand towels to speak of.

Bring earplugs
This apartment has everything you need for a short stay. The kitchen is not designed for much cooking but there are many good restaurants nearby. The main issue is the noise. The apartment is above several outdoor cafes and in the area frequented by students. Even with closed, double-paned windows, it was impossible to sleep without earplugs many nights. On weekends the noise lasted until 3:00 AM or later.

Great apartment!
We loved this Paris apartment! Great windows, great atmosphere! My husband and I stayed with our two sons and the apartment was a perfect fit for us. It had everything needed to be comfortable. The beds were nice, even the pull out! The place was clean. The shower worked well. I few little things to note: the neighbor is lively (aka loud). There are multiple pubs, cafes, and wine bars literally right underneath you and the students partied all night! We didn't mind, but if you expect it to be quiet before 2 am, select another place. My sons actually really enjoyed the liveliness because it was young and hip. Also, the kitchen functions for basics- coffee, toast, refrigerated items, microwavables, etc. We could have used a few more bowls and cups. No shortage of wine glasses though! The neighborhood is really wonderful. Great shops, restaurants, etc. We were close to all metro and all the amazing Paris sites we wanted to see.

We loved every minute in this charming little apartment!
The large windows brought us a light and cheery view of this amazing neighborhood. There were plenty of small grocery stores, coffee shops, bars and restaurants within a block or two. The neighborhood was safe and so charming. The subway is only 2 blocks away and several historical sights within walking distance. The only negative spot in our stay, was the bar below. The food was good but the staff was as very rude. Fortunately, there are so many fabulous little restaurants within a few feet. We would definitely stay here again.

Perfect location, apartment with a lot of character
This is a perfect location for a stay in Paris as it is in an old cultivated environment but not too touristic. The apartment is absolutely beautiful and practical as well, tidy, clean etc. A very nice market and excellent shops ( bread, fruits, cheese and meat) are in walking distance boulevard saint Germain at the metro station maubert-mutualite. To reach the flat the staircase is very narrow and old, so big suitcases are not convenient......we will come back next year -as soon as possible!

Below Expectation
The location of this apartment is in a wonderful area! We loved being in the Latin Quarter! We were a 10 minute walk from Notre Dame! There were many restaurants and markets close by! The apartment was below our expectation because it was very noisy and it seemed like they just threw together furniture and random kitchen items. The description says they have a cleaning service who takes care of the apartment but upon arrival the floors were dirty. When we went to use some glasses they had lipstick on them, the forks were dirty and so were the plates. A couple of the dining room chairs were loose. They only gave us one set of keys and we were 4 adults staying in the apartment. Only 1.5 rolls of toilet paper were provided for 4 days. We had to purchase some. In the description, it states that there is a washer and a dryer. They did not mention that it was not in the apartment but in the building laundry room. By the way, the dryer took hours to dry our clothes. We received a list of rules we had to follow because there were other people who lived in the building. Mentioned we had to be quiet but the other residents were not quiet. We emailed the apartment contact person regarding our concerns but no one responded to us. We called twice during business hours and calls were sent to voicemail and again no one called us back. This apartment would work for 2 people but not 4. The water heater kept running out of hot water. Not worth the money we paid!

Cosy 1 apartment in Latin Quarter
My husband and I just returned from a one-week stay in Paris at the Cosy 1. The apartment was very clean and exactly as shown in the pictures. The location is great and very close to several restaurants in the Latin Quarter. It could be noisy at night due to being above a restaurant and near bars where the younger crowd will stay until the wee hours, but we were able to close doors and windows to help with the noise. The bed was super comfortable and having a washer and dryer just steps away was an added plus! Easy to follow check-in and check-out instructions. Great Paris apartment!

Great location and furnishings, very noisy
Loved the location and the layout. In July it was very warm. no air conditioning (like most Parisian apts), but it is right on top of a few bars/restaurants. There would be noise and smoke until early morning so we couldn't leave the windows open. I imagine that outside of summer, it would be a great place as people wouldn't be hanging outside until late. But in the summer, we found it tough going.
