Luxurious, 2 Bedroom Apt. w/TERRACE (!) Central Two Blocks from Elysées Palace.

As with any metropole, Paris is a city composed of neighborhoods, called 'quartiers'. They each have their charm and personality. Matignon Terrace is located in the prestigious 8th Arrondissement, the heart of the capital. Our neighborhood is famous for its elegance, luxury and security. It includes within its borders the Elysées Palace, home of the country’s president (a two block walk from the apartment.) It is a short ten minute walk to Avenue Montaigne, or the Champs Elysées, which many consider as being the most beautiful avenue in the world.

What a pleasure to walk out of the door and have the elegance of Paris at one’s feet!

The apartment is located on the Faubourg Saint Honoré, the home of the great fashion brands - the flagship stores of Hermès, Channel, Cartier, Saint Laurent, Gucci, Prada, Lanvin, Valentino, the Place Vendôme with its prestigious purveyors of jewelry.

Matignon Terrace, is just across the street from the luxurious, six star 'palace', the Bristol Hotel. It is a large, comfortable space, equipped with essential conveniences, at a fraction of the Bristol's stiff prices. Of course, nothing prevents a visitor from crossing the street to have a drink at their bar, or a meal at one of their celebrated, Michelin-rated restaurants.

The interior of Faubourg Terrace Modern was designed by Christian Biecher, one of France’s leading architects - and the talent he lavished on every detail is evident everywhere. The apartment was featured in World of Interiors, Marie Claire, Architectural Digest, and a host of other specialized publications.

On the first floor above street level (in an elevator-equipped building), one is greeted by a salon with large windows opening onto a terrace. The exterior walls of the apartment are made of translucent glass. The concealed track-lighting is controlled by dimmers. A small efficiency kitchen contains a microwave oven, an induction stove top, a dishwasher. A Miele washer and dryer are provided for the guest’s laundry needs. The bathroom has a large shower booth, à l’italienne. The master bedroom offers a large, flat screen, high definition television with a fiber optic connection (which also means high-speed wifi connections) as well as a seating area, a modern, centralized stereo system, with built in ceiling speakers, brings sound to each room. A smaller bedroom offers modular twin beds, that can be joined together if needed. The apartment is furnished with several, comfortable, leather armchairs and a leather couch.

Matignon Terrace is situated in the heart of one of the most elegant neighborhoods of the Gallic capital. It provides everything necessary for a comfortable and rewarding stay. We sincerely hope to be able to welcome you to The City of Lights, and to offer you the hospitality that this exceptional property offers.

A bientôt, peut-être?

Great location
Our check-in process was smooth & the owner was very communicative and efficient. The apartment is as described online. There were 2 issues upon arrival, one that the owner shared ahead of our check in and he was able to address them the very next day. The only downside was some street noise on our first night as there are businesses located on the same street and the first night, there was a truck loading & unloading.

Overall, just OK
JP communicated well at the beginning, but we had a need that he never responded to later in our stay. Pros: The location is pretty good. It's a bit of a hike to the subway, but I felt safe, and the neighborhood is pretty. The unit is a comfortable size. It was nice to have a washer and dryer. Cons: The unit is a good size but has a few odd things. ALL of the light switches are by the front door, and they control multiple rooms at a time. For instance, if I wanted to turn on my bedroom light, I would also be turning on the light in the second bedroom. The unit was obviously a studio or office, so the lights were set up for ONE room. There is one small trash can, and it is located in the kitchen. The entire unit is sparingly supplied- no shampoo, conditioner, soap, etc. We didn't even have hand soap, but JP brought us some when requested. He didn't, however, bring toilet paper, which we ran out of pretty quickly. We had to buy our own. The sheets and towels are mismatched and threadbare. Overall, the place just needed a soft touch- basic necessities like trashcans, nice linens, soaps and shampoo, bathmats, etc.

First time staying in the 8th and hit all the right spots
First of all, we are a couple who has traveled to Paris many times and enjoy self-catering whenever we can. Having learned from other bookings, the things like an elevator, patio, air conditioning, and a good coffee maker are a must and not always easy to find. But when we had an ice maker too, that was great! I actually travel with an ice cube tray, lol. The apartment was quiet, secure, easy to get into and communication with the owner was good once we got close to our date. We never did get the tv working properly, but who has time to watch tv in Paris anyway. Would highly recommend.

If you go to Paris and want to stay in the best location this is the place. You are less than 2 blocks from the presidential palace and across the street to La Bristol hotel. You are on the best street in Paris. Amazing communication with the host. The videos he has are very helpful to navigate the apartment with ease. Would stay again for sure.

Perfect Comfort
This apartment was the perfect retreat in the city. The walk to and from the metro was reasonable and there were several stations in the area, on different lines, so we could get anywhere easily. While the front street is quite busy and loud the windows are impeccably sealed and keep out the noise. The back patio is an oasis in the city. It was lovely to sit out there morning and evening. It was cool and quiet. We enjoyed eating out there each day. The apartment offered many seating options for the family to spread out. It felt clean, comfortable, secure, and had all that we needed. When it got too warm to cool the apartment with fresh air the air conditioning was much appreciated! I loved all the short videos that explained entry, and how to use the features of the apartment. The apartment website was very thorough on offering neighborhood recomendations and explaining the apartment as well. I had trouble with the VRBO app and our host was happy to communicate with WhatsApp and was very prompt in responding to questions.

Terrific Apartment in a Great Location
Nearly everything about this apartment is ideal. The size of the apartment, location, kitchen essentials and communication with the host were all terrific. The only minor complaint I can make is there was only one trash can and that was in the kitchen. There were no trash cans in either the bedrooms or bathroom. Maybe the cleaning crew failed to replace them? Either way, I would without hesitation stay here again and recommend to a friend.

Functional and basic
Pro: Great location, very quiet, comfortable beds, and very secure building Con: Not exactl a luxurious apt. This apt needs some TLC to match the “luxury” as described. No paper towels or napkins. One dish towel for kitchen. Counter in kitchen not clean. Bath towels were old and tired. Toilet seat broken. If these small things above are fixed it would definitely make for a much nicer stay.

Accommodations were top notch!! JP was a fantastic host who responded back to any questions I had instantly. As a first time traveler to Paris, we couldn’t have selected a better location! Our family of 3 walked to Army Museum, Tuileries Gardens, the Paris Opera House, the Louvre, Île-de-la-Cite where we found the Notre Dame Cathedral, Saint Chappelle and other gems, with Avenue des Champs-Elysées so very very close by, and of course the Arc de Triomphe. Paris is amazing! Experience it in its fullest by selecting an appropriate location and an attentive host. We will be back!! Thanks JP!!

Last minute booking. John Paul reached out as soon as we landed and made the check in process very smooth. The apartment is in a very safe, secure location. Easy walk to The Champs-Elysees, Arc de Triomphe, The Louvre, Musee d Orsay and so much more. Subway is a short walk away and there are plenty of restaurants, grocery stores and cafes close by. Make sure you bring your own soap, shampoo, etc.. that is not provided for you. Additionally, you will only get sheets and towels for the number of people in the apartment, no extra. Work was being done in the building; however, we did not notice noise. The hallway/staircase is dark at night so be prepared to turn on the light when you enter the building so you can see up the stairs to the apartment. We had a great stay and would definitely rent the apartment again.

A great space in a fantastic place!
This is a great apartment located in a prime position in Paris. It is just around the corner from the Le Palais de L'Élysée with numerous shops, restaurants, cafes and bars all within a 5 minute walk. Due to the proximity of the Le Palais de L'Élysée, there are armed guards at every corner for a couple of blocks, so we never felt insecure at night, quite the opposite in fact! The apartment itself was presented to a reasonably good standard, although we did find some left over items from previous occupants in the drawers including underwear in one of the bedrooms and a razor in the bathroom, hence the average score for cleanliness. The two bedrooms are both of a good size and the beds were comfortable too. Temperature was never an issue as the whole apartment has air conditioning. The television shown in the pictures of the main reception room wasn't there when we stayed which was a bit of a shame as we would have liked to enjoyed watching some TV together on the comfy settee, but this wasn't possible. The shower room was OK in size, the shower had good pressure and there was always plenty of hot water. Noise was a bit of an issue due to an adjacent apartment being renovated late at night but that won't last forever. John-Paul was a fantastic host and sent through very detailed instructions regarding access to the property and operation of the facilities. All in all, it was a great space in a fantastic place and we would definitely stay here again.

Great location. Handy for all major sites. Property manager sent clear instructions on how to access the property. Building was going through some renovation but the noise didn’t bother us. Apartment itself had all the necessary amenities. However some of it was complex to use (eg lights) and we received instructions on using the complex amenities only after we checked out. Luckily we managed as best as we could. I’d also recommend a thorough clean and removal of prior tenant clothes (cupboard and drawers) and emptying the dishwasher - prior to next tenants checking in. It felt grubby for the price. All that aside it was ok, helped largely by the location.

Disappointment with rates and appliances
It needs a deep cleaning. To reach the microwave I needed to stand on a chair. The same with the dryer. I’m 80 years old and it’s dangerous! They need to provide a stepladder. There was only one pan, and no trash baskets in the kitchen or bathroom. We were unable to cook. The apartment sleeps 6. If more than 2 people, the owner charges 25 euros a day for each additional person. The cleaning fee I expected. The service charge was over 200 euros. I have no idea what that entailed. The videos provided by the owner regarding the lighting and how to gain access were helpful.

A Lot to Offer but Some Work Needed
The apartment is well located in a reasonably upmarket area and close to a metro (Miromesnil). The area lacks the buzz of the left bank but seems very safe perhaps due to the police presence around the presidential palace. The apartment is spacious with high ceilings and quality furnishings. Unfortunately, there is a substantial amount of maintenance required. The bathroom needs a complete strip down and refurbishment. The tiles and silicone seals are discoloured and dirty. The fittings are very degraded and need total cleaning. There are essentials missing. There is no toilet roll holder. Why? There is no soap holder in the shower. The electronic toilet does not work. The seat is loose and falls off. The bathroom door lock needs replacing. The general interior design standard is a triumph of self indulgence over practicality. There is no hanging space in any wardrobe/closet. That’s right, all shelves, zero hanging space. ??? The appliances are of good quality and work well. The host is extremely helpful and provides video instructions on access and general operation of lights, appliances, etc. the host’s communication was excellent. This unit could be exceptional if the severe lack of maintenance and cleaning were rectified. We enjoyed our stay but it could have been even better if all of the issues were rectified.
