< Back to Marais 1 Bedroom — Elzevir
Here is what some of our clients have to say about Haven in Paris & their stay in:
Elzevir
The flat was truly outstanding and we had a fabulous time during our stay in Paris. Olivier (our greeter) was very helpful and arrived precisely at the agreed time to let us into the flat and provided a very effective overview. He was also available regularly by phone and on line when we had a few questions during our stay. We will definitely be contacting you for future visits to Paris and have already passed along your web site to friends who are planning trips to France. |

Our family -- especially my wife -- loved the Elzevir apartment. The location was terrific, and the apartment itself was full of every amenity we could want. My wife, who has a better-developed esthetic sensibility, appreciated the contemporary style of the layout and furnishings. We had just arrived from five days in Barcelona, where we had rented an apartment on the Ramblas, and the contrast between the apartments was striking: we were glad that Paris came after Barcelona on the itinerary! Among the amenities, the Internet access and free telephone service proved to be essential to making our way around the city and running errands (we were in Paris primarily for a wedding). One minor drawback was the inability (or extra fee?) for calling cell phones from the house telephone, as so many people in Paris are only accessible by cell phone. The greeter was very good, explaining every feature of the apartment thoroughly and patiently, even though we arrived late. He also gave us valuable tips concerning local boulangeries, restaurants, shops, etc. Why HiP? Now that we have some experience renting apartments abroad (Spain and also several apartments in Paris, when we lived there in 1997), I can state that Haven in Paris is exceptional, not only in their apartments, but also in the presentation on the Internet and in the rental process. |

Mrs. Milani and I had a great time staying at your Paris, Marais, Elzevir apartment for a week in September/October 2008. Your apartment is remodeled very nicely, is convenient and is located in a great neighborhood and very conveniently close to many places. All the arrangements including the pick up from the Rail station and to the airport were nice and we appreciate it. If opportunity arises again, we will be delighted to stay with you anyplace you have facilities. |

Having just stayed in an overpriced stuffy hotel apartment in Ireland arriving at the Elzevir apartment was like a breath of fresh air for myself and my family. The apartment was imaculately clean, modern and gave us a much more real sense of parisian life. The district in which it was situated was not only trendy and modern but also very inviting and warm, with a multitude of cafe's, restaurants and bakeries to choose from all offering superb cuisine. Travelling with a 2 year old little girl and a 13 year old teenager became less stressful and much more relaxed because we had a beautiful haven to come home to! Thanks Haven for giving us an amazing parisian experience. Why HiP? We had searched hundreds of apartments and came across the haven in paris website and immediately fell in love with the apartments and the huge range of services available. The deciding factor however was the reviews left by the guests and by the prompt reply to my many queries by the haven in paris team. |

I wanted to make sure to write to tell you that we had an extraordinary time--and how much we loved that apartment. It was just heaven to come back to--so sublime aesthetically and really quiet--in the middle of that busy wonderful neighborhood. Mark spent a lot of time there, cooking and working--and he loved it too. We so hope to get a schedule soon enough to book it for when we go back. Thanks again for making it so easy and efficient. Oliver (our greeter) was great. |

A delightful apartment, the photos on the website give an accurate representation of the property. The apartment is in a quiet corner of the lovely Marais area. A great place to stay if you want to escape the tourist traps but still have easy access to the best of Paris by foot, Metro or Velibe. There is a great little market, restaurants and shops nearby. Olivier is very helpful. Why HiP? website |

First, we were very appreciative of the consideration and kindness shown by Olivier (our greeter). He was patient, helpful and thorough in his briefing on the apartment and the appliances. He also carried two heavy suitcases up the two flights. We found the apartment beautifully furnished. All the appliances are first class and the lighting is beautiful, with one shortcoming, there is only one reading lamp. Finally, the bed is very comfortable, but difficult to get out of for those over 25 years. Personally, I would raise the bed by two cinderblocks. The forgoing are not really complaints, but recommendations. I was particularly pleased to find sufficient laundry, dishwashing and sink soap and certain condiments in the apartment. The other occupants of the complex were all very friendly and kind, even the cats. We look forward to another visit soon. |

This rental company is excellent. They responded instantly, were available, gave accurate information and arranged for a great greeter, Olivier, to help us get to the apartment and get settled once we got there. We were traveling with three young kids (3, 8, and 9 years old) and the apartment was plenty big and comfortable for us. The kids really liked the circular window from the shower to the kitchen. We really liked the washer and dryer. We cooked several meals in the well stocked and outfitted kitchen. The towels, linen, and other accoutrements were also excellent. The Metro was very close and the Monoprix (supermarket and department store) down the block from the metro was fantastic. There were great boulangeries and traiteurs on rue St. Antoine. Having the Picasso museum down the block and the Pompidou center a short walk away was also great (get a museum pass for 4-6 days!). If you could please arrange to have the Carousel removed next to the metro the next time we visit we would get to see much more of Paris - thanks. I am recommending your company to everyone I know who is visiting Paris. |

We hope to return to Rue Elzevir again. To the owner, thanks for offering such a well designed and furnished space. Olivier, thanks for bringing the toys and dvds for our kids. And thanks Haven in Paris for the comprehensive website. We really enjoyed our stay. |

We thought the apartment was fabulous, and Olivier, the greeter, was perfect. He even called us during the week to see how everything was going... a perfect pied-a-terre for two in Paris. The apartment was charming, well-decorated and well-equipped, with real thoughtfulness for short-term visitors. We were totally pleased with everything. We will happily return to rue Elzevir. Why HiP? Good references; excellent web site that allowed us to see the apartments and their features, as well as their availability; prompt responses. |

I loved the apartment! Fabulous design, just the right space and light, and the neighborhood is so friendly. Camille's on the corner became our regular dining spot. Great food, nice people, I will rent the apartment again. Olivier is the best! He arranged for an excellent cab service and got us settled in, showed us how everything worked, and it was nice to know he was there to help out in case we ran into any difficulties. Thank you again for arranging the rental. We very much look forward to our next visit. |

It was a dream apartment, I would love to stay for about 3 months, and just loose myself in its fabulousness. I plan to use this apartment several times a year, it was SPECTACULAR. I normally stay at the usual haunts Ritz's Plaza Athene or the Park Hyatt, but they are so over priced and the rooms seem to becoming more like closets than the luxury of the past,that I will alway use any apartment that HIP recommends. Why HiP? The easy of the rental, great response times and wonderful staff, who truly cared. |
