Merveil - Luxury Suite - Marais - Saint Denis I

We recently stayed at this apartment in Paris and had an absolutely wonderful experience. The owner was incredibly attentive, answering any questions we had within minutes, which made our stay stress-free and enjoyable. The apartment itself was very cute and spacious, comfortably accommodating all six of us. It was the perfect home base for our first time in Paris. The location couldn't have been better. The street where the apartment is situated had everything we needed—restaurants, bars, shops, and street vendors. It was vibrant and lively, adding to our overall experience. We highly recommend this apartment for anyone visiting Paris. It truly made our trip memorable.

Traveled with my 30 something kids and spouses, nice place, great neighborhood right in the center of Paris.

Apt is located at a pedestrian street, this is important for taxi and uber. Close to Le Halles train and has many supermarkets and a big shopping mall just 1-2 blocks away. Close to many attractions. Inside apartment is not as luxurious, very basic. It was clean on our arrival. Kitchen has everything you need. Sofas, towels, seemed overused. All is coordinated for a independent check in with codes, etc, but we would have appreciated the courtesy of a human being to show us around even if it was the cleaning team. This apartment is administered by a company and communication is always thru messages/ email. Very impersonal. We were a family of 4, size was ok for us. Having been to Paris before, this was an OK stay, not wonderful.

This property is in a prime spot to go to all of the things you want to. It is a quick walk to cathedrals, Louvre, and other sites. It is in a good area for tons of restaurants and shops. The apartment has a good lay out and has the basic amenities. The communications and check in was good. The only thing that was not great was the entry way and stairs were not good. It is old and hard to get bags up. The stairs are very narrow and winding. The airconditioning is not central air. There was a portable unit on the floor with a pipe out the window so you can not close the window. So it was a hot stay. Other than that I would say this place is more about the location which is what you pay for. Good stay.

The positives are that the place was very clean, the beds were comfortable, and the area felt safe. The negatives are first, the entrance. The first door was broken and the code wasn’t necessary. Second, the walk down the hall and up the stairs to the apartment was a tad seedy. The apartment was a welcome relief and we came to like it. But we had told management that we were there to meet our four exchange students but they did not have enough beds made up. They suggested we look in a cabinet for more sheets, but they were in a bag to be washed—no additional clean linens They asked for any special requests and I asked for a yoga mat but they ignored the request. If they said they didn’t have one, that would have been fine. The emails don’t include a number to call except for emergencies so you’re left with emailing “the merveile team” and responses did not Include a number to call .

Overall nice place to stay. 3 bedrooms are small but private with one having en suite full bathroom. Has the basics you need for a comfortable stay. No central AC but has portable unit which was difficult given this meant the windows needed to be open and it’s a fairly loud part of town. The location was great in that it was fairly walkable to the Louvre, Pompideau, Notre Dame. Would definitely consider staying here again with a large group.

This property was awesome. It was a great location to walk to all the museums and Eiffel Tower. We had 7 friends and it worked well. Would recommend this property to anyone

The apartment was fine but the front door glass to get into building was shattered as was the second security door glass. But when the actual apartment door would not lock from the inside and the host refused to fix it until after i left, i asked to leave 2 nights early as i felt entirely unsafe with broken security doors and an unlocked apartment door. They agreed to give me a refund for two nights all by messaging on the VRBO app with pictures included. This occurred mid December and i am still calling VRBO to find out about my credit 4 months later. The host doesn’t answer my calls or that of the VRBO agent when they attempt to call them. VRBO is entirely unhelpful closing the case before i get my credit and generally giving me the run around. Very frustrating and entirely unfair given the documentation by host to agreeing to refund me two nights. Do not trust this place or the host. Nothing wrong with location or apartment itself but host responsiveness is terrible! And VRBO has been useless with the claim.

This apartment was the perfect Parisian home base for our group of family and friends (parents, grandma, kids 10 & 15, and aunt). The pre-arrival information and video made finding and accessing the apartment very easy. The apartment is up one flight of wooden stairs. You enter into a hallway, with a bedroom door on your right. The hallway opens onto the kitchenette and living room, which has two couches with pull-out beds. The front bedroom (overlooking the street) has sliding glass doors opening onto the living room (with curtains). The back bedroom has a window and an ensuite bathroom with shower, sink and toilet. The mattresses are firm.

Don't be distracted by the sex shop next door. This cute flat is perfectly located for anything and everything you want to see in Paris. And much of it walkable from the front door. Wonderful little cafes and shops nearby. Convenient to a major Metro stop. VERY responsive and helpful host. For Paris, it's a 6 star!!
