Mr & Mrs Soper from USA

Dear Phillippe and Christophe: Thank you for your note. The entire Soper family enjoyed our stay at the Orchid apartment. It exceeded every expectation we had. We will be glad to recommend your services to our friends who are looking for wonderful accommodations in Paris. Thank you for the services you provided, the recommendation you made and your continuing help during our entire stay. Of particular note was your kindness in providing another apartment upon our arrival before the Orchid was ready for occupancy. That is probably as close as we will ever get to the restaurant La Tour d'Argent!! Again, we say THANK YOU to the entire staff for all that you did for us. A Bientot. Gordon and Sheila Soper

Family Darrach Cottick from VC, CANADA

Dear Philippe, Christophe, Thomas, et all, Thank you for the outstanding service and beautiful apartment. We had the week of our lives. I must assure you that when we visit Paris next, we will be staying in an apartment on the Ile St. Louis, rented by you! To live like this for a week is a dream, and for everything you did, we thank you. Conception mentioned that you have some smaller apartments as well, so for our next visit, we can try one of those. By the way, Conception and her husband Ivan were so very welcoming and kind. I would recommend you, the apartment, and the whole experience to anyone who asks me. It was seamless, flawless, and by far the best week we have spent in our lives! Thank you again, Alex, Kate, Stuart, Hannah .The Darrach-Cottick family

Mr Richard Mosher from USA

Bonjour Philippe - Merci for the great week on Ile St. Louis. We loved the apartment and the location is clearly the best in all of Paris. We had wonderful day trips to the catacombs, Brussels, the Louvre, the Eiffel Tower, etc.... We accomplished everything we hoped to do, and truly enjoyed having an apartment in the City as the home base for our adventure. Our kids will never forget this trip. The apartment worked out fantastically for all of us. My wife and I had privacy and relative quiet while the kids enjoyed their own space and freedom. The kitchen is fantastic, and we had several excellent meals with groceries from the local markets, and great bottles of Bordeaux. Once again, thank you very much for your gracious hospitality and all the arrangements you made for us. We will surely tell all our friends visiting Paris to reach out to you for housing options. Many thanks,Richard Mosher.

Mrs Elizabeth Hurren from UNITED KINGDOM

I would like to say thank you to everyone at Guest Apartments for helping to make my stay in Paris so special. You provide a first-rate service, especially for a woman travelling alone. I was impressed by the quality of the information provided throughout, the limousine service, and of course, the apartment itself. It was a pleasure to have such a warm welcome on arrival. What particularly impressed me was that everything advertised happened on arrival so smoothly. From the wonderful view of the Seine, to the trustworthy photos of the apartment online, to the excellent support services provided in case of need. I would not hesitate to recommend your services to those who plan to visit Paris. Frankly, there is no better way to see Paris than from the view on Ile Saint Louis. I realize what I have been missing all these years when travelling! My Kindest Regards to you all, Bonjour but not Adieu . Dr. Elizabeth T Hurren

Mr Jonathan Saada from USA

Dear Christophe and Philippe, Heading back to Los Angeles, we are about to leave the “ Orchid ” apartment this morning, with deep sorrow in our hearts !! Indeed this flat turned out to be the best spot we have been in our twenty years vacationing in Paris.its layout was just perfect for us and our kids, not to talk about the amazing location. The surrounding shops and restaurants, the atmosphere of the Ile St Louis and its character, will definitely force us to come back in the coming years. Your staff was very courteous, the limo services and arrangements you made for us were all first class. On my entire family’s name I wanted to thank you for making such an experience possible. Sincerely, Jonathan Saada.

Mrs Kathleen Shaw from USA

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Paris and your lovely apartment. Thank you for your kind assistance and for responding so quickly with the check-out information. I also want to thank Phillipe in particular for both his recommendation of Le Fin Gourmet for dining on Isle Saint Louis (the food and service was wonderful - we will definitely return there in the future) and for suggesting I go the Le Carrousel du Louvre to find my gravures of historic French buildings and architectural details. I was able to find exactly what I wanted for the art in my new apartment in the United States, and will be able to think of Paris and my many trips there each time I see these gravures. Sincerely, Kathleen Shaw

It was in every way the holiday of a lifetime. Every service that your company offered was professional and courteous, and you are a great credit to the city of Paris. I will not hesitate to recommend you to other travellers, and I sincerely hope that we will be back to Paris in the future to work with you again. Once again, sincerest thanks. Yours, Andrew Paget
