Located only a few feet from beautiful Luxembourg Gardens, this apartment is within close walking distance of St. Sulpice, St. Germain des Prés, and Montparnasse. This is a very up-scale residential section of Paris’ historic Left Bank (6th Arrondissement) where the Last Tango in Paris was filmed. It is ideally situated for many of the Left Bank attractions. 

Facing the courtyard, this 5^th floor apartment is joyfully bright, sunny and very quiet. Large and well decorated, with two bedrooms, the apartment is 67 m² in size (approximately 720 sq. ft.). It has an enclosed kitchen, a large living room space, with good size windows for lots of light all day long, and air conditioning for the warmer days in August, along with a full bath and shower, plus a separate W.C. The newly renovated building is quite handsome and well kept, featuring a cage-enclosed wooden elevator, and a concierge. 

The apartment is just a 2-minute walk from the gates of the Luxembourg Gardens. In case you don’t know it, besides its beautiful trees, flower beds, vistas and fountains, the “Luxembourg” also features an expansive playground for toddlers and kids, including lots of outdoor facilities (swings, climbing areas, ‘soft-ground area’) plus puppet shows, sailboats to push in the ponds and even ponies to ride! There are paths to jog on, basketball and tennis courts, and for a slower more serious pace the French ‘boules’ or pétanque. Many people take in a summer band session under the Gazebo... or you can just sit and people watch, like the French do!

Rue Vavin is a great street with several 'must have' shops, like the famous chocolatier Jean-Paul Hevin (perhaps the best chocolates in Paris, if not the world), along with bakeries and cafes. The apartment is very quiet due to its ‘off the street’ exposure onto a quiet courtyard. It has a queen size bed in the master bedroom, and 2 twin beds in the second bedroom. A comfortable sofa-sleeper in the living room can accommodate a child but the total may not exceed 4 persons.

In this apartment you will be in the best of two worlds on the Left Bank…living in an authentic Parisian neighborhood near a very beautiful garden, yet only a short walk away from the tourist attractions of St. Germain des Prés and Montparnasse.

Maximum occupancy is:
     4 persons in three beds (one double bed, two twin beds)
    
NOTE: While most of our apartments do accept early arrivals, for this apartment check in time is no earlier then 1:30 PM (13:30 local time). Exceptions to this rule must be worked out with the property manager.

Hi there, I wanted to express, once again, my sincere thanks for your kindness and hospitality! We loved our week in our lovely apartment and enjoyed Paris very much. We could not have asked for place in a better location for our trip with our daughter. We wrote about Vacation in Paris and posted photos of the apartment and the area on our website. Thanks again, be well, and I sincerely hope to be back! Jeff Bogle   Hi Richard, We have only recently returned home from our Europe holiday and found your refund cheque waiting for us. We had a wonderful stay in Paris at rue Vavin and hope to be able to return some time. The apartment certainly met all our requirements and we would have no hesitation recommending it to others - in fact I have responded to someone by email in the US who was seeking our opinion in the last week or so. We completed the evaluation form before we left Paris and left it with the representative we met however I will also complete the form online and forward it to you. It was a pleasure doing business with your company. Regards David Roberts, Beaumaris, VIC, Australia Tony: Just a brief note to thank you for making your wonderful apartment available to the four of us. For Nan and I, it was our first time in Paris and we had a marvelous experience in "the city of light". The location at 14 rue Vavin could not have been more ideal. We are both ready to return ......next week! (or perhaps sometime within the next few years). Everyone we met and talked with was friendly and welcoming, and that of course would include you. Thank you for your helpful kindness, and again for making your lovely place available. It was truly perfect. Well wishes, Marshall C., Barrington, IL
