Dear Philippe, Thank you so much for all your help with our Paris visit. My husband and I had a wonderful time and really enjoyed the apartment and the feeling of being a resident of Ile Saint Louis. I have and will continue to refer my friends and business associates to you and your beautiful website. The performance of "Rigoletto" was wonderful and I appreciate your help in finding tickets that weren't so terribly expensive. We will certainly contact you when we wish to return to Paris (which I hope is very soon). Thank you again for everything ! Kathy

From 24/10/2008 To 01/11/2008

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.

From 21/10/2008 To 27/10/2008

Cher Phillipe and Christophe - We enjoyed our stay at the 'TULIP.' It was the perfect accommodation for our needs and in the perfect location. We appreciate the many courtesies you extended and left a few things to enhance the stay of the next guests at this charming little apartment. Vincent's limo service was reliable and helped take some of the angst out of our travel logistics in and out of Paris. We will certainly recommend your service to others and will contact you again for our next visit to Paris. Sincerely, Julie Allecta

From 05/10/2008 To 12/10/2008

Dear Guest Apt. Services Team: We enjoyed our stay in Paris and loved the apartment Jasmin. It made it even more beautiful and wonderful to be able to enjoy the great food Paris has to offer . Going to the markets, buying cheese, wine, foie gras, etc, etc. It is a feast!!! Great view, romantic. All the things you expect from the city of lights. Congratulations, your services are complete and well managed. I will be more than happy to recommend you to my clients and friends. Have a great fall season and hope to see you next year! Best Regards, Zonia Button.

From 27/09/2008 To 11/10/2008

Bonjour Philippe, We are home and can't believe that it has been a week and a half since our departure. Keith and I had an amazing time in Paris and we are so thankful for discovering your lovely apartment. It was such a pleasure to meet you and we so appreciated your kindness toward us. It was not "business as usual" in the sense that you were professional, but also very accommodating and helpful. We are sorry that we did not have the pleasure of meeting Christophe; perhaps next time. We also wanted to thank Thomas for making our reservations at Le Train Blue. We had such a wonderful time and would never have gone to this restaurant were it not for the recommendation. The limo service was terrific as well. Philippe,....we have no complaints, only praises. We can't wait to return. It was just a very memorable time and we thank you so very much. Sincerely, Deborah Woodford . Chandler, AZ, USA

From 01/10/2008 To 08/10/2008

Dear Philippe, Christophe and Thomas, My regrets for taking so long to get back to you. I wanted to tell you how much we enjoyed the Lily apartment. It was just the right amount of space for us, the view was wonderful, nice touch with the bouquet of lillies. We especially enjoyed the public stopping to look at the house - we waved to them and tipped our wine glass to them. If I had had some of your business cards, it would have been a great selling opportunity to throw them to everyone who passed by!! Paris was wonderful. The food, the wine, the people, the metro (except for the tickets that didn't work)...we especially loved having Notre Dame just a 10 minute walk away. It was spectacular at night. I have passed on your cards to a few friends and have told many more about renting an apartment in Paris through you. I hope some of them visit you. Also, I want you to know that you have a gem working for you. Thomas was great. While I speak enough French to make me sound silly, it was great to speak English to get some details in order. Thomas was very accommodating and very enjoyable to deal with. Again, thank you so much for a wonderful Parisian experience. Best wishes for the season ahead. Sincerely, Joyce Majors

From 25/09/2008 To 02/10/2008

Philippe, Steve and I have just returned home from our extended stay in Europe and want to thank you for all your help and understanding while we were in Paris. We truly loved our stay and felt having an apartment to come home to was the best way to stay in the city. I hope you know how much your understanding of our situation made me feel more at ease. I have told several friends about your services and hope they too will be able to experience the joy of having their own apartment while in Paris. Thank you so much and you rank very highly in our book as professionals who represent a quality service. Be sure to let Thomas know how much we appreciated all his help. Jeanne and Steve Schaub.

From 29/08/2009 To 29/09/2008

Bonjour Philippe & Christophe Stewart and I have now returned to Perth after the most wonderful holiday in France. The apartment on Ile St Louis was so beautiful and comfortable and the wonderful service that you both offered made the whole week even more fabulous! We thoroughly enjoyed all the restaurants that you recommended - Chiara di Luna, Mon Veil Ami and Le Fin Gourmet and when we returned to Paris last weekend for 1 night we also loved Le Villaret which you had also kindly booked for us. It was absolutely fantastic - food, wine list, service, atmosphere!! Thank you so much to you both and all the team at Guest Apartment Services - we would not hesitate to recommend you and we look forward to returning to your beautiful city in the near future. Kindest regards, Gillian Johnson.

From 21/09/2008 To 27/09/2008

Dear Philippe and Christophe We arrived home safely a couple of days ago after spending a week in Japan (one of our favorite holiday destinations!) We absolutely loved our stay in Paris. The services offered by Guest Apartment Services were excellent, the staff very professional and attentive and most of all very friendly! We loved our apartment too - very comfortable, excellent location and very quiet. It is very important to get a good night's sleep after a busy day enjoying the delights of Paris! Thanks again for your kind assistance, helpful advice and great service. We will definitely be back again! Kind regards ,Cecille Jeffery.

From 17/09/2008 To 24/09/2008

Bonjour Philippe and Christophe, We truly loved staying at the Gardenia apartment. The location, comfort and lightness of the rooms made for a wonderful stay in Paris. We no doubt will do it again at the next opportunity and we will be very happy to recommend your fine service to our friends and associates. You both are to be highly commended on your excellent services. We wish you good health and success in the months and years ahead. Warm personal regards,Sol & Kate Coffino

Review Published in the popular traveler website TRIP ADVISOR USA: www.tripadvisor.com We have just returned from our 6th trip to Paris, and it was one of our best thanks to www.GuestApartment.com Their apartments, most on St.Louis en I'lle, are beautiful, well equipped, and the service is outstanding. It's like having a concierge available in their office on St. Louis en I'lle to make dinner reservations, day trips, car pick ups, etc. From our initial Email for information, all was handled quickly and efficiently. Even though we travel in France often, our French is very, very limited. This service is very easy for Americans to use. The apartments all have Queen or king sized beds---a rarity in Paris. They are beautifuly decorated, and have all the conveniences of a good hotel. We stayed in HIBISCUS on Rue St. Louis en I'lle. It was billed as a large studio. We usually prefer a separate bedroom, but we ended up liking this better. The main room was huge with 2 sofas, 2 chairs, and a dining table with 4 chairs. There was a decorated screen separating the king sized bed. The ceilings were probably 14 ft. high with huge beams---just stunning! Then there was a separate kitchen and modern bath.(including microwave, dishwasher, washer, oven, cooktop, and all the dishes and utensils you would need). There was a radio, CD player(our IPOD worked great) and TV. Every morning my husband would go to one of 3 bakeries within 2 blocks of the apt. and bring back baguettes and pastry while I made coffee. That's about all the "cooking" we did. But we also like to have a nice place to relax from about 5pm until 8pm when we go out for dinner. If there was any drawback to this apt. it was that there was some street noise in the morning. Didn't bother us at all, but it may bother some who like it really quiet. Take a look at their gorgeous pictures on their web site. We will definitely use their service again.

From 09/09/2008 To 17/09/2008

Bonjour Philipe, Christophe and Thomas, Thank you for your email. We did, indeed, have a wonderful visit in Paris and would have happily stayed another month in our lovely little Begonia. What a pleasure to come 'home' after a long day of walking and sightseeing to fall into our fabulously comfortable bed and then wake up to fresh butter croissants and pain du chocolat just a few doors down! We thank you for your very attentive service and will recommend Guest Apartment Services to anyone visiting your beautiful city. Best wishes, Julie and Michael Eaton.

From 07/09/2008 To 14/09/2008

Bon Jour Thomas and Philippe, My husband Harry and I rented apartment #5 on Quai Anjou on September 6th through September 13th. We had a wonderful experience. We loved the apartment and the location. We appreciated your excellent service to us and we would like to rent with your company again. Is it possible to reserve #5 Quai Anjou for next year at the same time? We would be happy to send you a deposit. Please let us know if this is possible. I will look forward to your reply. Merci! Sincerely, Jayne Richardson

From 30/08/2008 To 06/09/2008

Dear Philippe, Christophe – et Thomas, bien sur! – Just a quick note to thank you for your assistance and the truly wonderful accommodations Michael and I enjoyed last month in Paris. The service you provide is absolutely exceptional, and we have already recommended it to all our friends and colleagues. From the welcoming bouquet on the table to the exceptional limousine service to the restaurant suggestions – all were as we would have offered to guests in our own home. Of course, the Ile Saint-Louis could not be better as a location from which to explore Paris. We hope to stay with you again for a longer stay! I hope you enjoyed your own vacation, and wish you the best for the coming season. Yours sincerely,Joanne E. Harack, Ph.D. HR Architect for Knowledge Enterprises

JULY 2008 ISSUE AT GOURMET TRAVELLER AUSTRALIA: LIFESTYLES FOR RENT PARIS Want to know where some of Australia’s top chefs stay when they hit France? Look no further than this private apartment overlooking the Seine. It’s a favourite home away from home for Janni Kyritsis, and Stephanie Alexander.

Review Published in the popular traveler website SLOW TRAVEL WEBSITE: www.slowtravel.com Review 3682: Guest Apartment Services, Saffron http://www.slowtrav.com/france/vr/review.asp?n=3682 www.guestapartment.com Recommended. Review by joe&dawn from CA 1bed/1bath apartment on Ile St Louis, Paris ________________________________________ When July 5 - 13, 2008, 9 nights Location The apartment was on the second French floor (with a lift) on the Rue St Louis en Ile in the heart of the Ile St Louis. The location is in the heart of Paris with easy walking distance to nearby sights and the Metropolitan. Despite the central location, the area is calm and quiet compared to most of touristy Paris, and even at its busiest (in afternoons and early evenings) is easy to navigate. It is quiet at night and very safe. Nearby Amenities There were a number of nearby restaurants and shops, and at least two grocers within a two minute walking distance. Some wonderful pastry shops, including the exceptional Calixte, were seconds away. The House/Apartment The building is a well renovated 17th century structure (as are most buildings on the island) that was well maintained and had a total of four apartments. The apartment was very quiet, with excellent double pane windows that blocked what little street noise there was. The apartment flow was pleasant, with entry at the center facing a small but adequate kitchen, and with a comfortable living/dining room to one side and the bedroom and bath to the other. The apartment was in excellent condition, clean and obviously well taken care of, with some very nice decorative touches to make it feel rather special. You can view the property directly: Saffron. Garden There was not an outside sitting area. Furnishings/Cleanliness/Living Areas Furnishings were first rate and comfortable, and there was more than adequate seating. Linens and towels were replaced at mid week without request. Bedrooms/Bathrooms The bed was in excellent condition, supportive but comfortable. The bedroom was a good size and nicely decorated. The bathroom was spotless and more than adequate, with lots and lots of towels, soaps, TP, etc. Kitchen The kitchen is small, but works quite well. There is a two burner convection stove top, a microwave, a good sized refrigerator, plenty of pots and dishes, etc. and a washer/dryer that works well. We cooked some rather enjoyable full meals with ease. Problems or Bonuses The bouquet of flowers, the bag of goodies, and the detailed guide to the apartment and its features, the building, the area, and Paris in general was superb. Agency and Representatives (and price) If we designed the agency ourselves, it could not have been better. From Internet contact to personal contact, it all went so very well. Philippe and Christof were kind and friendly individuals, ready to assist us at a moments notice. They spoke English quite well (much better than our French), and talking with them was rather enjoyable. The flat was exactly as promised but made better by the ease that was built into the process. While rentals in Paris can be pricey, this one proved a very good value. Do you recommend this vacation rental to others? We would love to stay here again, and would recommend the apartment and the agency without reservation. It really could not have been better. Things to do in this area Our favorite sweet shop was Calixte Gourmand (64 Rue St Louis en Ile). This review is the opinion of a Slow Travel member and not of slowtrav.com.

Bonjour Philippe, We were absolutely delighted with GLORIOSA in every way, and the service and support from your good selves and your housekeeping team both before during and after our stay really did make our time in Paris very, very special. Many, many thanks to you both We will not hesitate to contact you again when we plan our next trip to Paris A bientot….. for sure .Kindest Regards, Joanna

From 14/06/2008 To 23/06/2008

Dear Christophe and Philippe, My husband and I have done an extensive amount of traveling and always choose to stay in accommodations that offer very high levels of service and quality. We have steered clear of renting apartments because of our desire for this first class service. Since we were taking a family trip to Paris, combined with business, we thought a compromise might be necessary so that we could live altogether in a shared space. Our experience in the Magnolia apartment, however, proved to be the contrary of anything we expected in apartment living, and exceeded all possible expectations. The devotion that would be paid to our every need was clear from the very first night. After picking us up at the airport and getting us settled into the apartment, you Christophe, stayed for hours making sure that the wireless internet connection was up and running so that my husband’s business affairs weren’t postponed. Later on in the week, when my diamond earring had fallen into the bathroom sink, you again, were there within minutes to help fetch it out by any means necessary. We truly felt like we were in the hands of good friends throughout the entire stay in Paris. While this had been a first for us, our business associate had been to Paris and rented apartments numerous times before. He too claimed that this experience, with your company, was by far the best accommodations and service he had ever had. Aside from the fantastic service and beautiful apartment, it is undeniable that the Magnolia apartment is in one of the finest locations in the city. The balcony rests right above the water, with an unbelievable view of Notre Dame and the Eiffel Tower in the distance. Every night we enjoyed its twinkling light show from the comfort of our living room. While right in the center of Paris, Ile St. Louis also holds the local charm of a small village. Most nights we spent dinner out at restaurants, but within our 10 day stay, daily trips to the market and cheese shops around the corner evolved into friendly relationships with their proprietors. Our family trip had proved to be a magical one, and this was due greatly to the fantastic experience we enjoyed with your company, and we would recommend it highly to anyone. Thank you again for all your wonderful care, and we look forward to another trip in your hands. Linda Marlin Minkovski

From 05/06/2008 To 16/06/2008

Dear Philippe and Christophe: I just wanted to drop you a quick note to thank you for helping us to have a fantastic stay in your beautiful city. Each time we come to Paris is always better than the time before, it just keeps getting better and better! We just love our accommodations in the Amaryllis and have come to feel right at home there. I don’t know what we’ll do if it’s not available the next time we’re coming but I suspect that we’ll just adjust our trip to coincide with the availability, (if business will allow that is…) You provide a fantastic service and we are grateful for it. We have already given your name and contact information to many friends and colleagues here in the U.S. so don’t be too surprised if you hear our names mentioned when someone calls or writes. Jim and Cindie Smart

From 24/05/2008 To 31/05/2008

Bonjour everyone at Guest Apt. Services! Just wanted to thank all of you for our wonderful experience in Paris. The apartment (Acacia) was beautiful - just as pictured on your website. The fresh flowers, bathrobes, and mid-week housekeeping service were such a nice touch. Also, the car service you arranged for airport transfers made getting to the apt. when we arrived, and back to the airport when we left, stress free. The drivers were wonderful! I am recommending your company to all of my friends who are planning to visit Paris. Please use me and my husband Tom Lian as a reference - we have only good things to say. Thank you again for a beautiful experience!! Terrie Litwin &Tom Lian

From 17/05/2008 To 24/05/2008

Bonjour Philippe, The property surpassed our expectations. It appears from all of your rental units that you take pride in ownership. We would love to return to Paris and will review your rental options that you may have for a shorter stay. It was great to meet you, Thank you, Cathy Richards.

From 09/05/2008 To 15/05/2008

Comment and review seen at www.youtube.com WE LOVE THIS APARTMENT!!! Four of us shared it in May 08. It's HUGE and we adored it. Everyone at Guest Apartment Paris (Philippe and staff) are all wonderful and helpful. We could not have asked for more. The apartment is clean, everything brand new and right across from Notre Dame. The view is STUNNING and with triple thick windows the apt. is also very quiet. We can't wait to go back...WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS or any apartment they offer - the level of service and taste is top notch!

From 06/05/2008 To 13/05/2008

Bonjour Philippe and Christophe, I have been meaning to write and tell you how much Warren and I enjoyed our stay in your beautiful apartment from 3rd to 10th May. It is a lovely light and airy apartment with lots of space and magnificent views in a great location. Our tickets to the ballet at the Bastille were wonderful - the best seats in the theatre and we enjoyed the performance very much. We enjoyed our meals at Le Petit Pontoise, Le Fin Gourmet and La Rotisserie du Beaujolais and at the Musee d'Orsay. Also Vincent and his driver made our drive to the Gard du Nord and boarding the train so easy. He is wonderful and a great asset to Guest Apartment Services. We will certainly contact you again to book Arum when we next come to Paris. With best wishes and kind regards, Lyn and Warren McCullagh

From 03/05/2008 To 10/05/2008

We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Paris. The apartment was outstanding – the location, the apartment itself.. but most of all the service. Thank you for that. It was just the right amount of service. I have cc’d my assistant Treena Pauls so we can keep your contact information on file. We will be sure to recommend your apartment to other friends and of course we would love to use it for future trips to Paris. Thank you again ,Peter and Heather Schwartz.

From 26/04/2008 To 04/05/2008

Bonjour Mr. Pee, My wife Valerie and I cannot thank you enough for making our stay in Paris a most memorable one. Everyone with whom we came into contact was very courteous and helpful and every promise made on your internet site was delivered. It was a pleasure working with you. If we have another opportunity to visit your beautiful city we will most certainly want to utilize your services. In the meantime we will enthusiastically recommend Guest Apartment Services to our friends. Thank you again. Sincerely,Tom and Valerie Wharton

From 21/04/2008 To 01/05/2008

We have arrived back home....Air France delivering us toToronto comfortably and efficiently. We understand the weather has began a turnaround in Paris and you'll be looking forward to a nice warm weekend at long last. Our choice of Guest Apartment Services was certainly a brilliant one! We were very happy with our apt Asteri...it was all that was promised and proved to be wonderfully comfortable.Again we must thankyou for finding us a place to rest when we arrived on our early flight . That was kind and thoughtful and very much appreciated. I believe it set the tone for what your business strives to be. The fresh flowers...the robes....all the charming little extras. Thankyou also for helping Jerry with the Boarding passes. It expidited our check-in at CDG. In concluding,there is simply no comparison to this and the hotel experience and we would always choose Guest Apt. Services on any return trip. I intend to post our satisfaction with your company on the web...both Fodors and Trip Advisor. Paris is so incredibly beautiful that we will hope to return soon. Au Revoir and Merci Messieurs, Philippe and Christophe. Susan & Gerald Newbury

From 16/04/2008 To 24/04/2008

Dear Christophe and Phillipe Thank you for our delightful stay in Paris. The Lotus apartment exceeded our expectations in every way:apart from being beautifully furnished and appointed, it was immaculately clean and fresh - the flowers were gorgeous. We loved the high-tech features too, especially the wi-fi connection. And the view was spectacular. Your website pictures are an understatement of just how spectacular it is. Your service was professional, considerate and friendly. I really appreciate you contacting Patrick Borre from Courcurcuit for me. Patrick was extremely helpful and practical. Any future clients requesting disabled equipment or transport would be very happy with Patrick's service - he is a lovely man and very accommodating. Vincent's driver,Said, was a great welcome to Paris - very entertaining and helpful. Paris was, as always, magical, made even more so by the luxurious Lotus apartment. We would love to stay here again...and again...and again. We will certainly be recommending Guest Apartment Services to everyone travelling to Paris. Compared to staying in a hotel, the apartment was so much better in every way. The location, the convenience, the spaciousness and the luxury combined to make this our best Paris experience ever. Merci, merci,merci. Pauline Reynolds,Martin Arrowsmith and Kate Senior.

From 13/04/2008 To 20/04/2008

Bonjour Philippe and Christophe, We are home safe and sound still contented from our time in Paris. We loved the BEGONIA and we would not dream of ever experiencing Paris any other way now that we know about your apartments. Until next time, Sincerely, Mary Buzard and David Phipps

From 04/04/2008 To 12/04/2008

Dear Phillippe and Christophe, As usual we had a perfectly marvelous time and LOVED Saffron. We look forward to many more visits to Ile Staint Louis courtesy of Guest Apartments. We are happy to recommend you to anyone at any time. If someone in the US wishes a reference, please do not hesitate to have them contact us. We will ,of course, give you a glowing recommendation. All the best, Vivian and Neil Day.

From 31/03/2008 To 07/04/2008

Dear Philippe and Christophe, Bronwyn and I have recently returned to Sydney after a wonderful holiday in Europe.We had a fabulous week in Paris – it is a beautiful and vibrant city.“Acacia” was perfect accommodation. We loved the location, the presentation and the size of the apartment.We will be back and I am sure that a number of our friends will also be in contact.With best wishes, Ian Bangs.

From 29/03/2008 To 05/04/2008

Hello, Christophe and Philippe, Thank you for this update on our rental of the Begonia. We appreciate your careful attention to every detail of our stay in Paris and look forward to returning with a little more time to enjoy during our next trip. Thank you as well for working with us to welcome our daughter and son-in-law after our departure. They thoroughly enjoyed the apartment, and I think it made their trip even more special. Best wishes for a wonderful spring and prosperous rental season! Debbie Williams

From 24/03/2008 To 04/04/2008

Thank you Philippe. We had a most wonderful time in your glorious city. Everything was perfect! We will be back again and I will recommend you to everyone I know. Regards, Kathy and Vika

From 23/03/2008 To 30/03/2008

Bonjour Christophe, We have not stopped telling friends what a wonderful stay we had in Paris – thanks to your services. I am sorry – I have not had two minutes since our return to write the letter of recommendation for your web site. I promise I will do it in the coming weeks. I wanted to be sure I set aside enough time to say all the things I wanted to say -- about how special the experience was because of you. I hope all is well with you and your wonderful staff. I will speak to you very soon. Linda.

From 22/03/2008 To 30/03/2008

Philippe, Désolée de vous répondre si tardivement. Soyez assuré que notre séjour à Paris fut des plus mémorable. Le confort et l'élégance de l'appartement que vous nous avez loué nous a parfaitement satisfaits. Les enfants et mon mari ont adoré. Tous mes amis sont maintenant informés qu'il existe une agence de location extraordinaire à Paris et je parle de votre site presqu'à tous les jours. Merci encore pour votre extrême gentillesse et pour votre accueil des plus professionnel. Dorénavant nous avons un pied à terre à Paris... et vous avez de nouveaux représentants au Québec... Je vous transmet notre reconnaissance ainsi que notre confiance. Sincèrement, Isabelle Brais . Ravie...

From 28/03/2008 To 30/03/2008

Bonjour Philippe and Christophe! We had a wonderful time. The apartment was perfect and, knowing what we know now, would could not have picked a better place. We are planning our next trip back to Paris and will use your service and apartment listing again! We are also considering purchasing an apartment ourselves on the Ile Saint Louis to use for rental property and for our own use from time to time. Thank you again for your professionalism and services. Sincerely, Arlan, RoAnna & Emilie Chenault

From 22/03/2008 To 28/03/2008

Dear Philippe and Christophe, Just a quick email to let you know that we so enjoyed our stay in your lovely apartment Gardenia. The apartment works beautifully and we appreciated such luxuries (for Paris) as a large bathroom and the feeling of light throughout the apartment. We tried all of your suggestions for dinner, the favorite being Mon Vueil Ami, very stylish sophisticated cooking. One to add to your recommendations ( although it is in your guide, but I had sourced it through a magazine article in Australia) is Petit Pontoise. Walking distance just around from Rotisserie de Beaujolais... Lovely. Overall we will certainly book with you again and recommend you to our friends and work colleagues. Bernard works on the international speaking circuit and so travels internationally continually and it was lovely to have a change from large hotels. Best of luck with continued success with your business, Kind Regards Kym and Bernard Salt PS The flowers are such a lovely thought.

From 20/03/2008 To 27/03/2008

Hi Philippe, We are back in Singapore and I am writing to tell you how much we enjoyed staying at Lys. Of all the areas, we think Ile St. Louis and the Marais are the nicest. I hope we can come again sometime in the future. I will definitely recommend your service to any friends that might be thinking of renting an apartment. Sincerely, Suchi Shanker

From 21/03/2008 To 27/03/2008

Dear Philippe, On behalf of my family, I wish to express my sincere appreciation and thanks to you for an enjoyable stay in Paris. The apartment in Marais was exactly as described and provided a comfortable and enjoyable base for our daily adventures around the city. We greatly appreciated all of your attentiveness and personal care. Also a thanks to Vincent and the other driver who were both timely & helpful.You can certainly count on us to pass on good recommendations to our colleagues and friends about your business as well as for our future trips to Paris! With appreciation, Stephen and Heather Gange

From 17/03/2008: To 25/03/2008

TRIP ADVISOR FORUM REPORT ON 10TH OF JANUARY 2008: For a belated honeymoon, we looked for a place in Paris for a week over New Year's. In searching on the web, and having loved Ile St. Louis during a prior visit to Paris, I found the website for Guest Apartment Services. They have one of the best websites I've ever seen - great pictures of their properties, pricing information, and clear and comprehensive descriptions of services, amenities, etc. Basically, they manage and rent out apartments on the Ile St. Louis, but they operate more like a hotel. Their properties range in size from a studio to multi-bedroom luxury townhouses. So you get the space/set-up of living like a local with the perks and services of a hotel. It's the best of both worlds. After falling in love with pictures on their website, I worked with Phillipe and Christophe via email to book a week's stay in their Acacia property. While aesthetically decorated in classic Parisan elegance, the fascade hides all of your modern day amenities including satellite t.v., a washer/dryer and full kitchen. The apartment was even more stunning in person, and has a beautiful balcony overlooking the Seine. We arrived early and even though the office was closed, Phillipe was reachable by cell and made arrangements for us to be able to drop our luggage at the apartment so we could begin our vacation. The service is impeccable and attentive, and the operation is well run and extremely professional. I would stay here over a hotel in Paris. I look forward to staying in the Acacia apartment again soon. I highly recommend this service for anyone staying in Paris for at least a week. Check them out: www.guestapartment.com.

Dear Philippe and Christophe, Jim and I just want to say how much we enjoyed staying in the Magnolia apartment during the Christmas and New Year's holidays. It was such a fabulous experience for our entire family! So relaxing and such a wonderful opportunity to really experience a taste of Parisian culture! We also greatly appreciated all of your many services, recommendations and help to make our visit so enjoyable. I don't think we'll ever stay in another Paris hotel again after this lovely experience...and we absolutely fell in love with the Ile Saint Louis! It was such a treat returning home each evening, and discovering so many great restaurants and shops on our quiet little "island"! We truly are looking forward to visiting Paris again soon and booking either the Magnolia or another fabulous apartment through Guest Apartment Service. Many thanks again. We look forward to being in contact, and we wish you a very healthy and prosperous 2008! Best regards, Sarah and Jim Taich

From 22/12/2007 To 01/01/2008

Dear Philippe and Christophe, I thank you for your mail and for making our vacation in Paris very pleasant. The apartment as well as its location was really beautiful! I will recommend your agency to all my friends and be sure that we will come back to Paris soon! I also wish you a very peaceful and happy new year. All my wishes and ... a bientot, Liana Casini

From 22/12/2007 To 28/12/2007

Philippe and Christophe! Thank you very much for the final confirmation of our stay. The apartment was lovely and we had a fabulous time all around. Couldn't have asked for a better location - and the apartment was very comfortable - especially the mattress... We really appreciated all the attention to detail you put into your service. You guys are great! You will probably be hearing back from us the next time we make plans to come to Paris. Midi Shaw

From 05/11/2007 To 12/11/2007

Dear Mr. Pee and Mr. Chastel, Thanks for everything. I had one of the best times ever in Paris, and I want you to know you will always be my first choice agency in Paris. Your service is incomparable, and your tactfulness and graciousness is always appreciated. I hope you enjoy the wine. I kept reading about Cotes de Blaye and asked a local merchant to recommend a good one, but other than that I have not much serious knowledge of wines other than to know I haven't met a French wine I didn't love. I have a special fondness for the studio apartments at 1, Quai de Bourbon, and as I had the chance to invite some friends over while I was there, and they all admired the studio, I gave them the address and website information about your agency. I'm sure there will be at least a few new clients getting in touch with you in the near future. Everything went well on the trip home, with the taxi service arriving right on the dot of 11:30. The driver was helpful and polite. My best wishes for a wonderful end to 2007 and an even more prosperous and successful 2008. I hope to see you some time during that year, and especially hope I can make plans to secure one of the studios again, if all my friend haven't reserved ahead of me! Sincerely,Natasha Yakovlev

TRIP ADVISOR FORUM WEBSITE REPORT: Just got back from a weeks stay. Took the train from Brussels to Paris. Very easy. Luggage storage above the seats is good for carryon size luggage. Bigger bags have to be left by the doors. Stayed on the Ile St. Louis in a loft apartment right on the Seine. It was wonderful and quiet. Can't say enough about Phillipe and Christopher who run www.guestapartment.com The apartment was spotlessly clean and exactly as the photos show. Several older folk live in the building and were very friendly. We used their transport service which was very nice from the train station. and then to the airport. After reading endless stories about apartments with no towels, dirty, and problems we were so surprised when we walked in the door. Spotlessly clean, lots of towels, toilet paper, and everything else you would want. On the dining room table a huge bouquet of fresh flowers. Their office was a block from the apartment and were more than willing to help with anything you needed or questions. Like having your own travel agency right there. They both speak perfect English. Photos on their web site are totally accurate. What we enjoyed. River rides on the Seine. We did it once at night and once during the day. It was beautiful and fun. Spent a day at the Lourve. Should really be broken up in two days. Too much to see in one day. You feel dizzy when you leave. Was disappointed the Mona Lisa was behind glass. Between the glass, rope around it, and the crowds you could hardly see it. Used Paris Tours for a day trip to Versailles. Not to be missed. The Hall of MIrrors was breathtaking. I got goose bumps when I walked into that room. I would have to say the Versailles tour was the best part of my trip. Spent hours walking around looking at the sites and so much history. Shoppers can shop till you drop. Paris is big but really a walking city. The metro is easy to use and a good way to get around. I found the French to be friendly if approached in the right manner. I think speaking French would greatly enhance vacationing here. We don't but got by. A friendly Bon Jour goes along way.

From 28/10/2007 To 04/11/2007

Dear Philippe, We had a wonderful stay in Paris. Much of it was due to your lovely apartment combined with your caring attitude and helpfulness. We just returned home. Needless to say, I will recommend that anyone considering going to Paris first contact you regarding renting one of your apartments. A visitor couldn't do better than to put himself or herself in your hands. We look forward to another visit to Paris and another rental from you. Best regards,Alan

From 18/10/2007 To 25/10/2007

Bonjour Phillippe and Christophe, We have now returned to California with lovely memories of our stay in Paris. Our apartment was historic and charming. Living in the Marais for the month was all we had hoped it would be. Working with you and your office staff was just wonderful. Your dining recommendations were most helpful. We can heartily endorse all of you as perfect Paris hosts. We look forward to returning for another visit. Thank you for all of your assistance prior to our arrival in Paris and during our stay. Sincerely, Jane & Michael Woolf, California

From 18/09/2007 To 16/10/2007

Thanks you Philippe and Christophe, I have just arrived home after 26 hour flight ... with fond memories of our time at Magnolia. I have sent details of the apartment to a friend who visits Paris frequently, he was most impressed with the apartment, much nicer than the apartment he usually rents and the for the same cost. We had a great time, many thanks for your kind assistance. I am sorry Les Bleu did not win! cheers, jon.

From 08/10/2007 To 15/10/2007

Christophe, Philippe,et. al.- We just returned from our month in France . Many, many thanks for a terrific two weeks on the Ile Saint Louis. We enjoyed the apartment, your support, and all of our time in France. We will be back next October and we will contact you to rent another apartment. You made it easy and successful! From now on, whenever we visit Paris, we do business with you! A bientot, mes amis....Lorrey and Kathy Bianchi

From 25/09/2007 To 08/10/2007

Thanks for the nice accommodations in Paris. The Tulip turned out to be perfect for us! The location, the quiet, the marvellous sounds of church bells every day, along with children playing only added to the ambience. We loved being on the island, close to so many interesting places. The bed was amazingly comfortable. Everything about the Tulip let me know I was in Paris, and made me feel it was my home. One thing for those who have not had the glacee on the island . . . Beware, for it is addictive! Best wishes, Myrna Jacobs.

From 17/09/2007 To 28/09/2007

Staying in your lovely apaartment was one of the highlights of our trip to Paris. We have recommended your services to several friends and hope they will contact you. We look forward to returning to Paris. Many thanks,Dorothy

From 04/09/2007 To 11/09/2007

Bonjour Philippe and Christophe We really enjoyed our stay with you, and everything was First Class! When we return to Paris next time, we will be surely book with you again, as the apartment and location were both ideal. I will also refer you to other people I know who travel to Paris, so they can have an equally as nice stay. I appreciated all your help with the reservation at Le Grand Vefour. It was truly a great dining experience. Also want to mention that Vincent was great. He was very professional and got us all to the airport on-time and with ease. His service is an asset to your company. Thanks again for everything and we look forward to our next stay ! Best Regards, Dan

From 09/07/2007 To 15/07/2007

Trip Report taken from the famous Forum website: www.tripadvisor.com Have just recently returned from our third summer trip to Paris, France, our very favourite city in the world! Once again, we stayed in a charming apartment on the Ile St. Louis, smack dab in the middle of the Seine and in the middle of this beautiful city, within five minutes of Notre Dame and within incredibly scenic walking distance of the Louvre, Musee d'Orsay, the Latin Quarter, St. Germain des Pres, the Marais, the Picasso Museum, the Pompidou Center, Pantheon, Hotel de Ville, the Conciergerie, St. Chapelle, and so much more. I HIGHLY recommend that, to get the most out of your time in this gorgeous city, you consider renting an apartment and checking out the charming island of St. Louis for your stay. While not "bargain basement" prices (you'll pay what you'd pay to stay in a top-notch hotel), the old adage "you get what you pay for" surely holds true here. Before I continue, a quick word: I am an infrequent poster. I guess because of this, and because my first post sung the praises of Guest Apartment Services, from whom we rented our apartment, there were questions in later postings as to whether or not I had been hired by this service to "advertise" for them. NOT TRUE. As I've said in the past, we are always quick to get the negatives out there to warn people off; shouldn't we be just as ready to let others know when service goes above and beyond -- and thus give credit where credit is due? I think so, and this is why I am taking the time to let others know. Read up on the Ile St. Louis -- charm, quiet, and atmosphere that truly cannot be described adequately, but must be experienced. Add to this a wonderful apartment and the time, care, and consideration given by Philippe Pee and Christophe Chastel of Guest Apartment Services when you rent one of their apartments, and your equation adds up to an unforgettable vacation. Our apartment was quiet, comfortable, elegant, and, best of all, included a small, flower-lined private terrace overlooking the Seine on Quai d'Anjou. Views of the river from every floor-to-ceiling window in this quaint apartment (in a 1640 building with private entrance through an iron gate and cobblestone courtyard) PLUS the first sight you see when you sit up in bed in the tiny but comfy loft bedroom ... what more can you ask? Fully equipped kitchen, with diswasher, washer/dryer, microwave, one and one-half baths ... and atmosphere at its best for late-morning-on-the-terrace coffee and croissants and for relaxed lunches and dinners of baguettes, cheese, olives, fruit, and wine. Christophe and Philiippe take care of everything -- fresh flowers and Evian upon your arrival, IMMEDIATE handling of any problem that might crop up, and pleasant service for almost anything. Their driver service picks you up at the airport and delivers you and your baggage directly to your apartment and then reverses the procedure upon your return home. Philippe and Christophe take care of reservations -- we used them to book the high-speed train for a day trip to the city of Dijon and for an afternoon/evening trip (via private driver) to the candlelight tour of Vaux le Vicomte with a dinner stop, for which they also made reservations, in the charming village of Barbizon. These trips were recommendations of Phillippe's and Christophe's, and were well worth our time to complete. I can even thank Philippe for his "whirlwind" wine tutorial -- buy a red Burgundy wine from the year 2003! We have come to feel that these two are friends; we cannot say enough about their attentiveness to their clients. They worked hard to help us deal with British Airways, who did not send our luggage on to Paris from Heathrow until the eleventh and twelfth days of our fourteen-day stay -- thank you, British Air! Without their help, getting the bags delivered correctly would have been difficult, as our French can't hold a candle to theirs! As I said, they will come to your assistance for WHATEVER is needed. With this being our third summer in the city, we spent much more time exploring, via walking, this gorgeous city and taking our time merely breathing in atmosphere -- didn't feel the need to rush from one major attraction to the next. I think this is one of the advantages to revisiting a favorite destination, as we have done twice, now. Some of our favorite "new" experiences this summer were the Picasso Museum, near the Bastille, and the Salvadore Dali museum (in Montmartre). We enjoyed many lovely wine-and/or-coffee evenings at the small cafes at the end of Ile St. Louis and wonderful dinners at the tiny Le Relais de L'Isle, complete with live piano music, on the main street of Ile St. Louis. Enjoy a crepe at the "take-out" window (my favorite was fromage, jambon, et l'oignon) and the always too-good-to-be-true, world-famous Berthillon ice cream and sorbet (try the melon sorbet; it is unbelievable). Mainly, spend many hours just soaking up the charm of this petite island, where you'll feel you've stepped back into the past. If you can, rent an apartment from Philippe and Christophe that overlook the Seine; your visual memories will last you a lifetime. Once again, please don't be skeptical -- I am NOT a "for-hire" poster for Guest Apartment Services -- go to their website -- www.guestapartment.com -- and look at some of their apartments yourself. Ours was "ROSE," and I can tell you that the photos are accurate; you won't arrive and find something that doesn't resemble what you thought you were going to see! We feel very lucky that we serendipitously "found" Philippe and Christophe for our first stay; we'll never use anyone else, and we would not even consider staying anywhere else in Paris but on the Ile St. Louis. If you go, you'll understand why. Please post and let me know if you look into this and also if you give it a try. While we have plans to visit Turkey next summer, I can guarantee you that we will return to Paris and to Guest Apartment Services in the future. They have been the "gold standard" for all of our vacations thus far, and I suspect they will remain so. Happy Paris vacationing! We hope you will enjoy this lovely city as much as we have.

From 01/07/2007 To 15/07/2007

Bonjour Philippe et Christophe, We can't thank you enough for all you did to make our stay in Paris so pleasant. From the flowers on our arrival to the floral arrangement for my birthday, your kind gestures made us feel very special. Thank you for all the things you did to help us too. We appreciated the last minute taxis, the floor repair, the advice about the shower, and all the help planning our celebrations. L'Orangerie was the perfect place for our June 28 party and they did a truly amazing job. The food was outstanding and the service was extraordinary. Please tell them I'm still dreaming of the marvelous mushroom ravioli with truffles. I miss many things about Paris and look forward to coming back. I would be happy to stay with Guest Apartment Services again. Take care and enjoy "The City of Light" for us. Warmly, Joan Henricks

From 01/05/2007 To 30/06/2007

We learned of Guest Apartment Services on the internet, and accepted at face value their testimonials from satisfied customers and the pictures and representations on their web-site. What a fortunate decision! My wife Marilyn and I were greeted with warmth and sincere courtesy upon our arrival and were stunned by the luxury and the "feeling at home" which we experienced when we entered our apartment. It was more than an apartment--more like a home away from home with a dash of French nobility and savoir faire, including an ingenious portable air conditioning unit and fully equipped kitchen and laundry! Having lived for a year in Paris decades ago and having returned on several occasions, we were very pleasantly surprised to redicscover the gaiety and charm we remembered but feared had disappeared with modernity. Street life on Ile St. Louis coupled with an elegant place to stay brought back so many pleasant memories. We unhesitatingly recommend Guest Apartment Services and our hosts Phillipe Pee and Christophe Chastel for a Paris vacation of your lifetime! Jim and Marilyn Cox Lake Charles, Louisiana

From 19/06/2007 To 28/06/2007

MANY THANKS FOR YOUR THOUGHTFULNESS AND CONSIDERATIONS. THE QUARTERS WERE COMFORTABLE IN THE UTMOST AND WE WOULD BE PLEASED TO OFFER UNQUALIFIED RECOMMENDATIONS TO OUR FRIENDS AND ASSOCIATES. WITH OUR FONDEST REGARDS,RICHARD AND VIDA PRESS.

From 05/06/2007 To 20/06/2007

Bonjour! We had a wonderful time in Paris and most definitely will be coming back. The apartment was perfect and we appreciate your help and kindness during our stay. We loved Vincent also. I do feel as though we were able to experience Paris less as a tourist and more as a "Parisian" staying at the apartment. We frequented all the restaurants on the Isle and had many, many good dinners. Thank you and should any excellent rental deals come around, please feel free to email me. I would love to bring back the children one day in the next year or two. They are teenagers and I think they would also love your city. Many regards, Mary Haile

From 11/06/2007 To 18/06/2007

Bonjour Phillipe and Christophe, Thank you for all of your many kind courtesies while I was a guest in one of your lovely apartments. I am already checking your site for my next visit. I come to Paris at least once a year and rent an apartment. This time was my most enjoyable. Each time I return from my visits to Paris I send my photos to my friends by via an Internet site. Many of my friends have asked for your contact information. They loved the e photos I had taken of the apartment. I am very much looking forward to my next Paris trip and to staying in another of your apartments. Sincerely,Lisa Breakey

From 31/05/2007 To 06/06/2007

Dear Mr Chastel and Mr. Pee: Thank you again for all of your help during our stay at the apartment on the Quai d'Orleans. The apartment was even nicer than we expected, and we had a wonderful time. Your service was excellent, and your driver offered extraordinary assistance by waiting for us for more than two hours at the airport after our flight had been changed at the last minute. We look forward to our next trip to Paris, and of course we would rent an apartment only from you. Sincerely, Larry and Patricia Allison

From 29/04/2007 To 13/05/2007

Bonjour Philippe et Christophe, Thank you so much for all your efforts in making our Paris holiday such a wonderful experience. We especially appreciated the welcoming bouquet of lovely flowers on the dining table - such a thoughtful gesture. The apartment was perfect, and so convenient and well-equipped. We lacked nothing. The location was ideal for wandering around Paris absorbing the ambience of your beautiful city with its splendid buildings, monuments, museums and parks. Nous sommes allés à pied dixaines de kilometres chaque jour, et avons visité beaucoup des musées et sites historiques. We became particularly fond of the Ile Saint-Louis, with its friendly "small-town" atmosphere, its excellent bistros, boulangeries, fromagerie and wine shop, etc. - everything was so convenient. [We truly miss being on "our island", standing on the bridge, listening to the accordionist or the jazz trio or the guitarist, while watching the ancient Seine flow past the glorious cathedral on its way to the sea!] The apartment's location was also well-situated for making use of the RER and the Métro, both of which were very close and easy to use. The handbook you provided with the apartment was very useful, and we even managed to master the washing machine. Lacking the energy to give big dinner parties, we never had to use the dishwasher! Your recommendations for good shops and restaurants were much appreciated. We wish we had had time to sample more of the restaurants, but I suppose we'll have to wait until our next visit. And we are both determined that we shall have a "next visit". We shall also recommend Guest Apartment Services to our friends without hesitation. Thank you again for such excellent service. Sincerely, Eileen and Peter

From 27/04/2007 To 06/05/2007

Dear Christophe and Philippe, Thank you for your message. We had a wonderful and memorable stay in Paris -- made even more special because of Guest Apartment Services' professional staff and lovely property. I have recommended your services to another American couple, knowing they will be just as pleased. We wish you well and look forward to a return visit soon. Sincerely. A bientot. Marilynn and David Collin

From 24/04/2007 To 29/04/2007

Hello All, I just wanted to say again how much we appreciated our time in your guest apartment. Everything was perfect and spotless, plenty of room and sunlight, every convenience and amenity, including three options in the preparation of coffee, which I thought was really decent of you. The flowers you bought opened beautifully, and it was a luxury to find robes and so many towels. You can tell a lot about a place from the linen, don't you think? We loved our stay, every single minute of it, loved our location and our home away from home, and thank you for all your attention along the way. Our best regards, and see you again soon, I hope. Denise Metz.

From 20/04/2007 To 28/04/2007

Bonjour Philippe et Cristophe How can I thank you both for the contribution you made to giving both Ross and I the best holiday ever. Given that we are overseas a minimum of 4 times a year but more specifically that we stayed in Paris for both of the preceding years, this is indeed high praise. We have been discussing why this time in Paris was just so wonderful. Ross speaking from the alter in Notre Dame and also in the French Senate was great but we have decided that you two made the difference! Firstly, upon our arrival Vincent showed amazing patience and resourcefulness when our luggage went missing at the airport and he had to wait for us for more than an hour. Of course we were also very grateful that Christophe could come around in the weekend to help with the water service. Secondly being Australian we are used to having space and unlike our previous apartments in Paris with other companies this had plenty of space yet was charmingly French. I also thought the apartment was spotlessly clean for our arrival. Thirdly, we believe that there is no better location in Paris than on the Ile St. Louis. Just the mere concept of having our own little pied a terre on our 'own island' never failed to excite me. Fourthly, we truly thank you for all the effort you went to, to reserve the restaurant and ballet. The seats were excellent in both cases and the evenings were wonderful. Fifthly, I appreciated all your emails to me Philippe. They were all endearingly written and prompt, despite how busy you were at the time. The information you delivered to the hotel in Montparnasse, Cristophe, did arrive but it was after we contacted you. Thank you so much for driving so far . We know you did not receive that follow up visit but rest assured the information will be floating around some editor's desk in Sydney. Also we have been able to hand the cards to many of our friends who are interested in staying in Paris. We are happy to help you in any way we can. Also we are happy to provide any testimonial or to act as referees. We wish you both the absolute best and hope to see you again in the not too distant future. A bientôt Dianne.

From 14/04/2007 To 23/04/2007

Merci beaucoup Philippe, Joseph and I enjoyed a marvelous stay in Paris; a visit that was made all the more delightful by our residence in your wonderful Marais apartment! We have been praising France, Guest Apartment Services and, most especially, the highly-professional and expert service that you and Christophe offer your guests. We have shared your website address with numerous friends and we definitely hope to stay with you again on our next journey to Paris; a trip that will, hopefully, not be too far in the future! As an additional note, you should know that we were exceptionally pleased with both Victor’s car service (i.e., Vincent and John) and the professionalism and unobtrusiveness of your very polite housekeeping staff. Without doubt, their efforts made our arrival, stay and departure care-free and for that we are both grateful. Thank you and Christophe once again for creating an environment that only added to the sheer delight of being in Paris. Very best regards and a bientot, Eric and Joseph

From 10/04/2007 To 17/04/2007

Bonjour Philippe et Christophe. Thank you for your message. We had a wonderful time and this was contributed to greatly by the quality and location of our apartment. It would be difficult to come back to Paris and expect anything less. You have spoiled us. Thank you to Victor who took the worry out of transport to and from the airport and has a very pleasant manner. We hope you enjoy your trip to Australia later this year. The 25 hour trip is long and the jetlag affects you perhaps more going to Australia than the return trip to France. You may need a couple of days in Australia to recover before starting your meetings. Kind Regards. A bientot. The Boxall Family.

From 31/03/2007 To 12/04/2007

Dear Philippe & Christophe, Thank you for helping make our time in Paris a very romantic, comfortable trip. The apartment on Ile Saint Louis was very cosy and felt like home at the end of each day. Your recommendations for dinners and information on local patisseries and brasseries were fantastic and we enjoyed all of them. Thank you for all your assistance before and during our stay. The flowers upon our arrival were a nice, welcoming touch, also. Merci et au revoir! Until next time. John and Erica.

From 22/03/2007 To 03/04/2007

We had a fabulous time on our trip which was greatly enhanced by the great location, beautiful apartment and your excellent service. I have told many people since our return about our very positive experience with the apartment (vs. staying in a hotel) in general and your agency in particular. We look forward to working with you again for our next visit. Best Regards, Will Kenworthy

From 18/03/2007 To 24/03/2007

Philippe and Christophe, Thank you so much for everything you did for us during our stay. It was perfect. The apartment was lovely. Thank you for giving us such a wonderful vacation. We will be happy to recommend your services to our friends. Please feel free to quote us on your web site or in any printed material. Thank you, again. Michele and David Lowenstein

From 11/03/2007 To 19/03/2007

Thank you very much for the notice of check out. While we have stayed in Pied à Terre on previous trips, this was a special location, and your assistance during our stay was so helpful. We loved it all, and we will certainly refer people to your service. Susan Bower

From 03/03/2007 To 14/03/2007

Dear Mssrs. Pee and Chastel, Thank you very much for such wonderful accommodations! It was the perfect location for my mother\\\'s first visit to Paris. I\\\'ve already informed several friends of your service. Best Regards, Mark Devlin

From 21/02/2007 To 28/02/2007

Bonjour, Thank you for informing us We had a delightful stay in Paris and definitely would use your service again. The apartment was quite comfortable and very quiet. Sincerely Kathleen and Ross Solaro

From 16/01/2007 To 22/01/2007

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

From 13/01/2007 To 20/01/2007

Dear Philippe & Christophe Thank you for a wonderful stay. Our accommodation in your apartment was absolutely lovely and we did not want to leave, but unfortunately had already made other plans in other cities. The location was very central and within walking distance of many locations as well as numerous food outlets. The apartment was beautifully decorated and preserved. Your attention to detail in providing us with toiletries, lots of linen and the fresh flowers was much appreciated. I would also like to convey our thanks to Victor and his team of drivers. Their service was excellent and their assistance in helping us locate a lost bag at the station was impeccable. I would appreciate if you could forward an email address to me so that I may convey my thanks to them. Thank you once again for your assistance, and we will contact you when we are looking for our next accommodation. Kind regards, Michelle Bignell (Australia)

From 18/12/2006 To 28/12/2006

Dear Philippe and Christophe, We had a wonderful time in Paris and in our apartment. The dinner at Le Fin Gourmet was enjoyed by everyone; David and his staff made the evening really memorable. You run an excellent business, and we look forward to using your services again. We shall certainly recommend you to our friends. A la prochaine, Rusty Tunnard.

From 21/11/2006 To 28/11/2006

Bonsoir Philippe and Christophe, We had a very nice trip back home and, of course, we do miss Paris. I wanted to thank you both for making our second stay in Paris on Ile Saint Louis so enjoyable and so memorable. You are both so warm and gracious that we feel we were visiting old friends. We can't imagine staying any place else in Paris than in one of your beautiful apartments on Ile Saint Louis. Thank you for your recommendation of Le Fin Gourmet. We enjoyed it so much that we ate there 2 nights. Also, we enjoyed a wonderful bottle of Montrachet from Bachy-LeGros..I remembered the wine tasting from last year when we visited that you so graciously invited us to. Also, thank you so much for arranging the tickets for us to the Portuguese Horse Show at Bercy. The seats were indeed VIP...front row... and it was an incredible performance. You guys are the best and we can't wait to start planning our return trip back to wonderful Paris. Au revoir and Joyeux Noel Susan and Ronnie Smith

From 20/11/2006 To 27/11/2006

Thank you again for a wonderful time in Paris. Staying in your apartments is always a delight, and we are always pleased to recommend you to our friends. Our visit to Train Blue Saturday evening was particularly memorable. What a gorgeous place! Thank you for arranging all the dinner reservations for us. Emily enjoyed her chicken at the Lipp. We look forward to seeing you again soon. Sincerely, Keith Miles, Cindy Wall.

From 19/11/2006 To 27/11/2006

Philippe, Christophe, Thanks so much for all your help and hospitality while we were visiting Paris! The apartment was perfect as was pretty much every thing about the trip. Had a great time and maybe we'll see you again in the future! C.T. and Laura O'Donnell

From 08/11/2006 To 15/11/2006

Dear Philippe and Christophe, We want to thank you so much for the wonderful stay in Paris.....we keep talking about our visit and how great it was to meet you both and how you really made our stay in Paris very special! If you ever decide to come to the northwest, you must come to visit us! We are hoping that in the not too distant future, we will be able to visit Paris again. Thank you so very much! Most sincerely, Frances and Charles Costigan

From 23/10/2006 To 31/10/2006

Philippe and Christophe, The apartment at Quai de Bourbon was wonderful. I enjoyed my stay in Paris very much thanks to your apartment and your hospitality. I will certainly return to Paris and I look forwatd to doing business with you again.

From 02/10/2006 To 09/10/2006

Bonjour Philippe and Cristophe, We want to thank you for helping to make our stay in Paris very pleasant and memorable. All the services you provided were exceptional. We very much enjoyed the apartment - it was exactly what we had hoped for (beautiful fresh flowers!) and the location could not have been better. The suggestions you provided for shopping and dining were also appreciated and we catered to many of them. Thank you also for helping us to find a doctor on short notice, and for arranging transportation to the airport on Saturday with Victor's Limousine service. Our driver provided excellent service. We will highly recommend Guest Apartment Services to others who are planning travel to Paris, and we hope that we will have another opportunity to come again soon. Warm regards, Heather and Mark

From 29/09/2006 To 07/10/2006

Bonjour Philippe, We would like to thank you and your colleagues for making our trip to Paris such a memorable and pleasant experience - from organising our transfers to and from the apartment, finding me a dentist in Paris, and to the prompt and willing service we received from you during our stay in our lovely little apartment. We will certainly have no hesitation in referring you to our friends and other Australians who are coming to Paris. Thank you. Karen and Ross Whitelaw

From 26/09/2006 To 03/10/2006

Bonjour Philippe, Can't tell you how much we had enjoyed our stay at the apartment! And Paris comme toujours is pure magic and enchantment. We'll be back of course. Thank you. Linda

From 19/09/2006 To 29/09/2006

Dear Philippe and Christophe: Thank you, as well, for the making our experience so wonderful! We greatly appreciate all the extra touches and your willingness to make our stay even more wonderful than would have been thought. We have already told several of our friends, since our return to the US yesterday. I know you mentioned that you would like to visit Virginia. As mentioned, when I get a chance, I will send you photos of the guest house and main estate. Hopefully, we will be able to make your stay as wonderful as ours! Corinne Mastronardi

Testimony and report experience stay comes from the famous reviews written on the famous TRIPADVISOR website forum. This report has been published on the 20th of August 2006. Our first time posting, but wanted to sing the praises of "Guest Apartment Services Paris" to anyone looking for absolutely wonderful accommodations on their first or next trip to Paris. We have just spent our second summer renting from this wonderful service and cannot say enough about everything associated with them. First of all, Philippe Pee and Christophe Chastel, who run Guest Apartment Services, go above and beyond whenever needed. This past June/July, we needed somewhat last-minute accommodations for our traveling son and his girlfriend who decided to spend five days with us. Philippe and Christophe arranged an apartment for them on very short notice, and even kept us posted when an apartment in our very same building became available that they could switch to. They are prompt, reliable, and accurate correspondents, and e-mails were always answered promptly. Guest Apartment Services has quite a few apartments on what we consider to be the very best place to stay in Paris -- the Ile St. Louis, nestled right in the middle of the Seine between Marais on the Right Bank and St. Germain des Pres on the Left Bank and, literally, a five-minute walk to Notre Dame on the Ile de la Cite. It is a tiny, elegant, quiet, charming spot that is in the heart of the city and convenient to metro stops and major sights, but yet gives one the impression that time has stood still. The architecture, the history, the atmosphere, the shops, the restaurants -- all wonderful. Add to this the fact that one has Philippe and Christophe to act as concierge services, and one cannot ask for more. For two summers in a row we have stayed on Quai d'Anjou, bordering the Right Bank, with a magnificent view over the Seine. The building we stayed in was built in the 1640s and features an iron gate leading into a small, charming courtyard from which one enters the building. Our apartment last year was a charming studio (our son and girlfriend stayed there this year) which we loved, equipped with washer/dryer, microwave, and so on -- and atmosphere galore. Our apartment this year (we needed more room as we had a friend traveling with us who slept on a very comfy sleeper sofa) was a floor above the studio, with a loft bedroom, dishwasher, washer/dryer, microwave, and, best of all, an intimate, flower-box-bordered terrace from which to enjoy a glass of wine, beer, or cocktails -- with a view of the Seine to die for. A gorgeous arrangement of fresh flowers and comfy terrycloth robes awaited us on our arrival. For the price of a good or very good hotel, an apartment through Guest Apartment Services on the Ile St. Louis provided us with the independence of our "own" residence in a section of the city that, truly, cannot be equaled for charm and atmosphere. We could walk to wonderful bakeries, cheese shops, spirit shops, cafes -- and enjoy bread, cheese, and wine in our own home away from home when the mood struck us. After busy days of walking, touring, and enjoying the hustle-bustle of this marvelous city, we always breathed a contented sigh when we crossed the bridge to Ile St. Louis. We are planning next year's trip back to Paris already and cannot wait to revisit our "Paris home away from home"! Give this service and Ile St. Louis a try; we tell everyone who's thinking of a trip to Paris about them!

From 30/06/2006 To 14/07/2006

Bonjour Mr. Phillippe and Mr. Christophe, We absolutely did enjoy our visit to Paris, and the accommodations you provided were wonderful. We do intent to re-visit the apartment in the future, as the services you provide are exceptional. Thank you again for making our visit to Paris delightful. Ciao. David Williams

From 06/07/2006 To 12/07/2006

I just wanted to Thank you for the excellent service that you gave to my clients, Forman Party. They could not say enough good things about your establishment, and they highly recommended it. Apparently the neighborhood is so beautiful and theyn said you are well located. Next time I am in Paris I will come to see your apartments and recommend them to clients. Again Thank you and have a wonderful day. Tammy Webb

From 25/06/2006 To 02/07/2006

Dear Philippe and Christophe, Many, many thanks for arranging the beautiful apartment for us on the very special Ile St. Louis and for all your kindnesses. We had a wonderful stay and cannot wait to return! Of course, we will try to give you more advance notice next time. It was very special to have this opportunity to be in my favorite city. We look forward to seeing you again very soon. A Bientot, NIZA.

From 27/06/2006 To 02/07/2006

Bonjour Phillipe and Christophe, I wanted to thank you both once again for all your help and patience with us while we were in Paris. The apartment was just the best and we enjoyed ourselves each and every day. You have an outstanding company and organization and it shows. I will be seeing you next year as I will be back for the French Open once again. Au revoir, Mike La Vove.

From 27/05/2006 To 09/06/2006

Bonjour Monsieur Pée and Monsieur Chastel, We want to thank both of you for helping to make our Paris dream a reality. You have a wonderful agency. You both could not have been nicer, more helpful or more accommodating. Thank you for all your assistance in planning the details of our trip; such as all your recommendations of restaurants and shops and making the reservations for dinners and other activities. You really helped to make our trip a success. Our anniversary dinner cruise aboard the Don Juan II was everything we hoped it would be. Thank you for arranging the special "surprises" in our apartment. We can not begin to tell you how much we loved our apartment . It was perfect. It was as charming in person as it was in the pictures on your website and the view was even better than we had dared to dream it would be. We began recommending your agency before we even got home, by telling a flight attendant about you. We will be leaving an extremely favourable review on tripadvisor.com. We have also recommended you to a colleague who plans on visiting Paris in September. We told him that the Ile Saint Louis is the only place to stay in Paris. It is an oasis in the city. During our 8 day stay, we fell in love with your City of Lights and feel that we must return. There will be no place that we will want to stay other than our little pied-à-terre on the Ile Saint Louis. Merci beaucoup. Lora Duemig and Raul Soto

From 16/05/2006 To 24/05/2006

Dear Philippe and Christophe, We had a wonderful stay at our apartment, and want to thank you again for your hospitality. Of course, our stay was much too short, so we're looking forward to spending a couple of weeks in Paris again in the Fall! We hope you have a nice summer. Thanks again for everything. Best regards, Diana and Scott

From 16/05/2006 To 23/05/2006

Dear Philippe and Christophe, Thank you so very much for your kind message. Please know how much my husband and I loved our stay in Paris. We adored the apartment and we appreciated your professionalism. Needless to say, we will let you know when we return to Paris and in the meantime we will sing your praises to our friends. All the best, Marsha Malinowski

From 09/05/2006 To 17/05/2006

Dear Philippe and Christophe, We would like thank you for our stay on the Isle it was wonderful, we definitely felt at home. I am sure we will be returning in the not to distant future. The accommodations, service , security and attention to details was fantastic. We will be telling all of our friends about your service so they too can share the joy. Thanks again for a wonderful time in a wonderful city! Best regards, Joanne and Mike Sigal

From 07/05/2006 To 14/05/2006

Dear Mr. Pee and Mr. Chastel, This was one of the happiest of all the vacations I've ever taken to Paris, in large part due to your wonderful accommodations, and also to the hospitality and professional reception you extended to me during my stay. Victor was punctual and got me to the airport in plenty of time for my departure to London, and I appreciate his help with my cumbersome luggage. You may rest assured I will recommend your agency highly to anyone inquiring about my experience, and I hope to see you both again in the near future. My compliments and best wishes for your continued success, Natasha Yakovlev

From 23/04/2006 To 08/05/2006

Bonjour Christophe and Philippe. Thank you for your note and for all your many kindnesses while I was in Paris. Your apartment and your services were exactly as you described — charming and delightful. I had a lovely stay and have no doubt that I’ll return. Rest assured that I will be in touch as soon as I can find a date. Best regards, Becky Ross

From 20/04/2006 To 28/04/2006

Philippe, The apartment was perfect, in every way and every detail. My family and I are truly grateful to you for affording us the chance to stay on the Isle Saint Louis. 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

From 15/04/2006 To 22/04/2006

Bonjour Philippe and Christophe We have just returned from our wonderful holiday in France. It was a great pleasure to meet you after many emails. Thank you very much for making our stay in Paris so memorable and for all your effort in arranging tickets for the Opera, restaurant reservations and arranging for Victor to collect us from the Airport. Everything was absolutely perfect and we have already given your details to many of our friends. Please thank Victor for us. We hope it will not be too long before we return to the City of Light and the Isle Saint Louis. We will certainly stay with you when we do. Until then, many thanks. Kind regards, Jeanette and Lewis Webb

If you are staying for a week in Paris, consider an apartment over a hotel. Though it may not have all the English language television stations, you aren't in Paris to watch TV. This was the second time we've used Guest Apartment Services (www.guestapartment.com). It is a great alternative from hotels. There's more space, a kitchen (fridge, microwave, toaster, coffee maker, plates, glasses, etc) and the ability to get the feel of living in Paris. Our apartment, on Ile St. Louis was centrally located, easy to get to metro or the "boat" bus for easy on/off along the river. The kitchen provides you with the opportunity for a cheap and easy breakfast. With all the stores and bakeries around, stock up on bottled water, soda, and the basic foods for Paris, i.e., great bread and butter. Finally, Philippe was great, especially patient in making all of our lunch and dinner reservations--he'll also arrange transportation to/from the airport. Although no "formal" concierge, Philippe and Christophe are there to make life easy and located near (walking distance) most of the apartments.

From 31/03/2006 To 09/04/2006

Philippe and Christophe: Thank you for your help in Paris. We very much enjoyed our stay in the apartment at L'Isle Saint Louis. Our return flights were on time and we had no problem with the strike. Victor Limousine did very good job in both arrival and departure. We are looking forward to enjoying Paris again soon. With our best wishes. Angel and Celia.

From 27/03/2006 To 04/04/2006

What a wonderful few days in Paris. Your studio on Quai de Bourbon was everything we wanted, magnificent location , wonderful outlook and delightfully appointed (forget hotel rooms).Your service was magnificent starting with collection at CDG by Victor's Limousines a great idea which saved us trying to find somewhere unfamiliar and the driver couldn't have been more helpful (please pass our thanks).A couple of minor hitches, largely if not wholly attributable to my inadequacies were dealt with instantly by Jean Paul. We particularly enjoyed the visit to some of your other apartments and were hugely impressed in all of them (including our studio) by the furnishings and of course the first class bed linen. Your restaurant recommendation of Le Villaret was a highlight a magnificent meal and for a cheese lover like me the cheese selection and presentation was literally unforgettable (I counted 19 cheeses). We will be back to avail of your marvellous service. Regards Eddie & Evelyn Doyle

I remember the first time we came across the website for Guest Apartments. The original picture we saw of the view of the Seine was too close to a picture postcard to be true. We knew the view as we had stayed in hotels in the Marais on many occasions. We started to email Christophe and Philippe, and were very happy to receive not only prompt responses, but responses that exuded a warm welcome. We were very impressed with the web pictures of the various apartments. Yet, we had our doubts too. Were these photos genuine? Have they been altered with photo tools? We emailed Christophe and Philippe and asked if a friend of ours who lives in Paris could visit an apartment or two. A meeting was arranged and the response from our friend was indeed the apartments look exactly like the pictures. We have used other vacation rental firms in other countries. We are proud to tell all who may visit Guest Apartments that you will truly find a home away from home. You will be greeted in a truly warm and genteel way whether you use the recommended airport transfer or arrive at the office on your own. Five days after living through our first hurricane and only eighteen hours after our power was restored, we arrived at our apartment. Despite fatigue from the non stop hurricane clean-up and the transatlantic flight, seeing the arrangement of fresh cut flowers remains an everlasting wonderful impression. We were indeed in a very special place. We know that people in the US have heard all the negative stereotypes of the French people. Please, don’t believe them. At Guest Apartments you will find hosts who enjoy making your vacations pleasant. You will be welcomed to their home city. You will not find a company that only tries to separate you from your dollars or euros. You will find services comparable to that of the best concierge at a luxury hotel or an on sight owner of a small B&B. Whether this is your first trip to Paris or you are familiar with the city, staying on Isle St. Louis is like being in the middle of a small village. Within days, the local bakers will recognize you when you come early for bread and croissants. It’s wonderful to share the sidewalks with local residents waling the children to and from school. Yet, the hustle and bustle of the larger city is just a minute’s stroll across the Seine. When planning a trip to Paris, we now verify availability with Guest Apartments before attempting to deal with the airlines. We would never consider any other accommodations in Paris. When you have found the best, why search further? We wish all a great vacation in Paris. Paul Gurney Tom Dean , Royal Palm Beach, FL.

Dear Christophe, I am the other person who rented the apartment at Rue de Cardinal Lemoine with Adeline Olmer. I just wanted to thank you myself for the WONDERFUL accommodations. You did a fantastic job, and all the little extra amenities were so appreciated, especially the fresh flowers! I have already given your name to several friends..and I look forward to contacting you for the next visit to Paris..I have a feeling Adeline and I will be there often for our design projects.
