Read about Katie from Cardigans and Couture‘s visit to Paris and stay at Les Miroirs du Marais!
We truly enjoyed our stay at your charming apartment! It has been newly renovated and yet you never feel like you’ve left Paris. It is beautiful, perfectly appointed, and well thought out with creative design choices, such as the colorful tiles and exposed beam ceilings that add a great deal of character. We loved the location in the center of the Marais. It’s on a great street within seconds of shops, cafes, supermarkets, and the metro – we couldn’t believe how convenient it was. Within a 10-20 minute walk, you could be along the Seine at the Ile St. Louis and Notre Dame or in the artsy, energetic Bastille neighborhood.
Your apartment made us feel like we have our own pied-a-terre in Paris and is much better than hotel life. We highly recommend staying here! We have such fond memories of our stay – we look forward to our next trip to Paris and will most definitely stay in this perfect Paris apartment!
I’m so glad you enjoyed — please do visit again soon!!
We (58, 42, 15) stayed here in March 2013 and again in 2014.
We enjoyed a seamless and delightful stay at this Paris flat, in the Marais district. We were met on time and prepped by a pleasant greeter on how things operate at the flat. A file folder covers everything that’s necessary, and more. We were familiar with the flat, as we had also rented it last year, and it feels very ‘homey’ to us.
The flat’s location is superb and central, and an easy Metro ride to other parts of Paris, the train stations and the airport. Being in the heart of the Marais district is especially convenient as this is a very lively, peaceful neighbourhood and a pleasant walk to Notre Dame, Hotel de Ville, the Louvre, Place Republique, and along the Siene. We even walked to Jardin Luxembourg, Champs Elysee and Tour Eiffel.
The flat is located on a quiet street. The bed and sofa are super-comfy. The shower pressure is strong and the water is hot. This is a fabulous flat.
It is well equipped for cooking, but with restaurants nearby (and various price and dining options), you will probably be making tea or coffee and popping out for croissants and pastries. There is a convenience store right around the corner for groceries and other necessities. Pharmacies and banks are in close proximity. Great clothes and shoe shopping is EVERYWHERE!!!
We had many memorable lunches and dinners. The following restaurants create delicious food, have pleasant, efficient service, and are worth visiting: La Veraison, L’Auberge du 15, L’Ange 20 and La Table D’Eugene. We left some of those restaurant business cards in a box at the desk in the flat, for future visitors. L’Ange 20 is within walking distance, the others are accessible by Metro. Reservations recommended.
The flat’s owner made the booking process easy and stress-free.
We love Paris, and we love staying at Les Miroir du Marais.
Eugene,

My wife and I stayed at Abby’s apartment for a week just recently. Was really terrific. The combination of the well appointed apartment with the location in the Marias made it very fun. Transportation is right nearby. also, Abby and her team are very organized and make things a breeze.
Mark, Ginger,
I’m so glad you enjoyed your stay! It sounds as though you really took advantage of all the city has to offer. I hope you visit again soon!
Best,
Abby
Les Miroirs du Marais is the perfect Paris pied-a-terre. We had a wonderful week where we felt like Parisians, staying in the wonderful Marais section far away from any large hotels. The street is quiet, but cafes, shopping, and restaurants are only a minute away. And the Metro is three minutes! The apartment is well appointed and clean, albeit “cozy” by American standards, and we are already planning our return visit!
I am thrilled that you enjoyed your stay, Jeremy! Thank you for your kind words. Please do visit again soon!
Abby
My boyfriend, Greg and I spent two glorious weeks in Paris at Abby’s apartment. The apartment itself is a find. Such a gem, so close to shopping, dining, the metro and within walking distance of so many sites. Although cozy, completely updated and well appointed yet maintaining all of original Parisian charm. I cannot even begin to tell you how absolutely perfect our entire trip was, thanks to this great apartment, it’s location and Abby’s graciousness. Your team of Kim and Michelle made our trip hassle free, and utilizing Michelle’s services added so many magical experiences that we would not have accomplished on our own. We cannot wait to return!
Jennifer,
What kind words! I am thrilled that you and Greg enjoyed your stay and I hope you visit again soon as well!

My Husband and I just got back from our stay at Abby’s beautiful Paris apartment. We celebrated our 1 year wedding anniversary in Paris and it was really a dream come true. The apartment is equipped with everything you could possibly need. It is beautifully decorated, clean and was a joy to come back to every day after exploring all that Paris has to offer. The Marais is a gorgeous, safe, and historic neighborhood that is full of Parisian charm. The apartment is steps from delicious restaurants and shopping. It is also just 2 blocks from the St. Paul metro stop which was so convenient and made getting around Paris simple and quick. We had the best time and can’t wait to return!
Juliann, what kind words–I am so glad you enjoyed! Yes, please come back again soon!!
Our family of 3 just returned from a fantastic week in Paris where we had the opportunity to stay in Abby’s beautiful apartment in the Marais. I cannot say enough about our stay – the apartment is immaculate, comfortable and equipped with everything you need. Abby has thought of everything. Her binder full of suggestions was super, and it helped us navigate the neighborhood (which is amazing) and offered great restaurant recommendations. The apartment is in a great location and really felt like home after a few days. We absolutely loved it and hopefully will come again. Also, dealing with Abby couldn’t have been easier – it was a pleasure.
Ilyse, thank you so much for your kind words! I am so glad you and your family enjoyed your stay and I do hope you visit again soon!

Wow! Where do I even begin? My husband and I stayed at Abby’s apartment for 9 days and are already planning our return. The apartment was spacious, well-equipped, and was beautifully decorated! The light fixtures, colors, and exposed beams in the apartment make it very romantic and chic! We walked to many incredible restaurants and the apartment is less than a two-minute walk to the St. Paul metro. The neighborhood is charming and had all that we could have possibly wanted…groceries, restaurants, wine bars, shopping, and beautiful squares/gardens. The apartment was quiet and the shower was WONDERFUL. I cannot say enough great things about this apartment and am forever grateful for the opportunity to stay here! Counting down the days until our return..
Elizabeth–yes, please come back again soon! I am thrilled that you had such a good time and enjoyed staying in the apartment! Thank you for taking the time to write!

Perfect, Perfect, and Perfect. We stayed for three weeks and loved every minute. The apartment is perfect. Every time we needed or wanted something, it was there. We were packing for a picnic and thought, gee, we should have planned for an ice pack, oh look, Abby has one in the freezer. Lets bake some escargot we bought, oh look there backing pans. The apartment is laid out well, uses space well, and has everything you need for the whole family.
The location is perfect. If you spent your whole time in the Marais, it would be time well spent. Some many wonderful food stories, clothing stores, shopping stores. The Marais feels like a sleepy little town in the heart of Paris. If your traveling to the other areas of Paris, you are in the center. Its an easy walk to Notre Dame, the Louvre, and so much more. The number 1 metro line is two blocks away and connects to so may lines at Chalet, and many of the line like the 4 and 14 connect to the major train stations.
The people are perfect. Abby and her friends are so helpful and are there for anything you need. I think this is our third stay, and we are looking forward to many more, hopefully one a year from now on.
Thanks so much, Aarron! Such kind words. I am so thrilled you enjoyed your time in the apartment once again and please do visit again SOON!
