Guest Apartment Services

We just returned from our «trip of a lifetime» to celebrate our 40^th wedding anniversary in Paris. We had the pleasure of staying at the Amaryllis apartment on the Ile Saint Louis, on the Seine River.
We wanted to have the Parisian experience — living in a residential, but convenient area, with traditional furnishings. This fit the bill. Ile Saint Louis is in the center of Paris and we traveed with ease to all parts of Paris. The Metro stop was only 2 blocks away.
–Vincent picked us up at the airport — what a breeze!
–The large 1-​bedroom apartment, built in 1685 (that is not a typo) was very clean. We had linens changed and the apartment refreshed half way through our stay of 9 days.
– There were fresh flowers awaiting us!
– There was a small gift bag with some «madeleines» and hot chocolate, juice and water in the refrigerator.
–All of the appliances were clean and in working order: coffee maker, very small dishwasher, washer/​dryer.
–Liliane from Guest Apartments accompanied us to the apartment, pointed out how to operate the appliances. She noticed the desk lamp was flickering. She said, half to herself, she needed to see to that. By that evening, the bulb had been replaced!
–Liliane gave us a list of shops and restaurants where other guests had had a good experience. The several we tried during our stay were quite good.
–They take a credit card swipe as a deposit against damage. As promised, within 2 weeks we received an email saying the apartment was left clean, the allotted 1 hour international call limit was not exceeded and the electricity did not exceed the allowance. We owed no further money and the credit card imprint would be destroyed. We had told them we accidentally broke a juice glass. Liliane waved it away and said not to worry about it.
–Although we did not ned help to make reservations in French, we felt we could have called them for anything we needed.
–There were 2 pharmacies (very knowledgeable and they speak English), 2 bakeries (both very good baguettes and pastries), 2 green grocers (fruits/​vegetables), a famous ice cream shop (Berthillon — very good), and a very good and clean spa-​and-​tearoom (for a massage to get over jet lag) all within 2 blocks of the apartment.
–In a building built in 1685 you have to expect some oddities. The floors slope. And the elevator stops half way between two floors not on a landing but on a step in the stairwell. If you are mobility-​challenged, you may want to consider this.
–We would not hesitate to recommend Guest Apartments to family and friends and would certainly plan to return on our next trip to Paris!

My Mother and I just returned from our lovely trip to Paris. We had the pleasure of staying in the «Lupin» apartment of Guest Apartment Services Paris (GASP). We were supposed to be a group of 4 travelers but unfortunately 2 in our party cancelled. We had the whole apartment for 2 of us. It was a lovely, large and clean apartment that would have slept 4 comfortably. It was well furnished and there were fresh flowers, juice and water in the apartment when we arrived. The building was beautiful. We were given a tour of the apartment by a representative and there was a binder with suggestions about eating establishments and how to use the washer/​dryer, wifi and dishwasher. It was close to 2 metro stations and many shops and restaurants.
We were met at the airport by the recommended limo company which GASP arranged. They were thoughtful enough to check the incorrect flight landing time that I provided and were there on time-​what a relief.
Things you should know-​the bistro below can get quite noisy at night but that’s what happens when you want an apartment that is in an active neighborhood. A more «mature» traveler might want to chose another location. If you are planning on cooking in the apartment there is cookware but no cooking staples. This may end up being quite costly. We just kept snacks, cheese, fruits and vegetables (and spectacular bread of course).
Although it was somewhat expensive, we felt it was worth the expense given all of the positives that came with the apartment and the expense would have been much more managable with 4 individuals. I would absolutely recommend this company and would stay again without hesitation.

Excellent Service, Bonnes demeures en portefeuilles .
Sérieux et grande attention portes sur le Client !
Chapeau :)
