What our guests say....
| We just loved Paris; and Romantic Montmartre was a perfect base from which to explore. Set away from the hordes of tourists flocking to the Sacré Coeur, the apartment is on a quiet, cobbled street and provides a real slice of Paris life. The apartment was comfortably furnished and well equipped and we would definitely base ourselves here again and would also recommend the apartment to friends. Montmartre is completely self- contained, with great restaurants, delis and atmosphere. But still it is a brisk walk downhill or easy metro ride to the Seine and the Centre of Paris. We walked the length and breadth of Paris – which is a wonderful city - but returning to Montmartre at the end of the day was a real pleasure. Thanks Elaine for your wonderful hospitality. - The Reubens and Ross, Bucks, UK and Auckland, NZ. April 2007 |
| Hi all, Location, location, location. We have just spent 12 days in Elaine's truly Parisian apartment. Where artists work away in their studios below, where you can walk two minutes up the hill to get your fresh baguettes, where your nearest mini-mart is the grocers from the film "Amelie". Only five minutes walk to "Amelie's" café. Probably a hundred cafés and bars within easy walking distance. Broadband facility a great asset for planning trips, weather etc. And keeping teens amused when mum and dad are exhausted from touristing. A couple of good trips with teens. Paris Catacombs and an introduction to D-Day and the landing beaches up in Normandy. Try Segway tours for an easy day out on the train for the latter. Moulin Rouge also great for teens - also in walking distance. Have fun. - Dave, Jan & Martin. Cyprus. Aug 2007 |
| The moment I walked inside, I felt like I walked into my new home. We enjoyed the area and it's accessibility to Paris central. Opening the window and looking down into the street scenes was entertaining. Great restaurants and shops nearby to make life easy. Of course we did not have enough time and will make every effort to return soon. -Cynthia, Seattle, Washington. July 2007 |
Lovely apartment, especially enjoyed breakfast on the balcony. Great welcome too. Thank you so much. - Ingrid &

This place is fantastically home from home. If you are looking for a wonderfully relaxing time in a flat with a warm
feel and windows that let you sit and watch the Parisian life pass by your open French windows, then this is
definitely the apartment for you. We had the warmest of welcomes from Elaine and the hand produced guidebook
left in the apartment took all the stress out of finding the local amenities. This flat is a wonderful bolt hole from the
city life and its location could not be better for exploring the city. It was the first time that we had stayed in Paris
and truly felt like we belonged. We will definitely be back and next time we’re bringing friends. - Amara, London.

What a fun spot! We loved the area and the apartment. All the information available was very useful, especially
the French phrasebook :) Having access to the internet was very helpful and accommodating as well... Thanks
Elaine, for helping our stay in Paris be as "easy" and as fun as it was! If we ever manage to make it back, we will
remember Romantic Montmartre! - Sally, James & Biz, Utah, US. March 2007

Have had a wonderful time in Paris once again - it is still such a wonderful place. Have eaten far too much (but
then again have walked miles - maybe walked it off?)
The apartment is great - loved looking out the windows at the passing world - very quiet for its location. It had all
we needed for our 8 day stay...
Merci beaucoup. - Jennifer & Phillip, Canberra, Australia. Sept 2007

Bonjour Elaine, We loved our week in your cozy apartment. The information you shared during our trip planning
and your guidebook was so helpful. Montmartre has come to feel like home, like a village we return to from your
city travels. We've learned to pick up what we need as we return up the hill - and those local boulangeries always
beckoned us in to enjoy another delectable dessert on the balcony!
We knew we would love Paris - and we very much look forward to a return stay here at Romantic Montmartre.

A perfect spot for a short break without the confinement of hotel accommodation. Montmartre has the
atmosphere of a small village whilst being within easy striking distance of Paris and beyond. Local nightlife is
abundant - the restaurants are super leave aside the Moulin Rouge!
The apartment can comfortably sleep a family of 4, and the WIFI internet access is a real bonus. Overall strongly
recommended for a short break. - George T., Nottingham, UK. Jan 2008

It's now over three months(!), I'm writing as promised in your guestbook, but it seems only yesterday that we spent
such a wonderful week in Paris. We walked to the galleries and cafes every morning, returning in the evening
'back home' up the hill to our flat in Montmartre. It was always so welcoming, so comfortable and perfectly placed
away from the rush of Paris traffic. In the evenings, after a meal, we wandered out and enjoyed the view across
Paris. The old streets nearby and their atmosphere will always be for me, the real Paris. We are both vegetarians
and we survived(!), buying all we needed in the small shops down the hill, always fresh and always a fantastic
quality. Once we get a chance to return to Paris, we wouldn't want be anywhere else, but Romantic Montmartre. -

Dear Elaine, Spending 10 days in your apartment in Paris made us feel like Parisians! We loved it. From the bells
of Sacré Coeur to the "secret" gardens in back, from happy people strolling up and down Rue Lepic to that
beautiful Linden tree across the street - it all added to a wonderful experience. Merci beaucoup! - Elke and David L.,

We had a lovely time at Elaine's apartment, right in the heart of Montmartre. Although it's only a stone's throw
from Place de Tertre and a 2 minute walk from Sacre Coeur, there are no tourists and it's very quiet. The Metro
station is only a five minute walk away and the sight from Sacre Coeur over Paris is breathtaking!
The apartment itself is very comfortable and cosy. There's a PC and WiFi/WLAN, a DVD Player with a lot of
movies and a very comprehensive "Guide to Paris" from Elaine herself, with lots of helpful information.
I can recommend this location with good conscience! - Lothar, Munich, Germany. August 2008

This was our second stay in this great apartment - and also our honeymoon! The flat has everything we need, the
location is ideal, and we were made to feel very welcome. We're sure we will return very soon. - Andrew & Siobhan,

We all enjoyed our time at 102 bis, dodging the "sketcherazzi", savoring nutella crepes, and taking in all the
charm and detail of Paris. We absolutely love the metro system! Thank you for a comfortable, memorable stay :)

L'appartamento è delizioso! Accogliente e ben curato, con una luce strepitosa al mattino. Molto romantico.
La posizione è ottimale; a pochi passi si possono trovare ristoranti e caffè. La Metro e i bus portano ovunque...In
Ottobre poi, durante la vendemmia a Montmartre, esci di casa e a due minuti trovi bancarelle con ostriche e
champagne, escargot e vini da tutta la Francia!
Per noi sono stati dieci giorni indimenticabili. Consigliatissimo. Grazie Elaine! - Claudia & Carlo, Siena, Italy, Oct 2009

Spent a great nine days in this lovely part of Paris and the apartment was great. The location simply couldn't be
better and the facilities were everything we needed. Montmartre now feels like our second home and this is
in no small part due to the accommodation we enjoyed. We would return. - Rebecca Tansley , New Zealand, Oct 2009
