Here is what some of our clients have to say about Haven In & their Paris apartment rental experience

We really enjoyed our stay at Etienne-Marcel Designer! Beautifully designed and decorated with comfortable furnishings. Perfect for 2 people. Location in trendy Montorgueil neighborhood, just a few steps from the metro, makes the location perfect."
Robert L., Scottsdale, Arizona Etienne-Marcel Designer
Great location. Loved our stay. Look forward to returning. Thank you!"
Matthew Y, Bakersfield, California - USA Notre-Dame Chic
We stayed in Paris with Haven In for the 2024 Summer Olympics. Our apartment was great! It was very charming and stylish. It was very spacious. It had everything we needed. For example, being able to do some laundry mid-trip was great. The location was incredible. Everything was just steps away from our front door (subway station, restaurants, cafes, grocery markets, bakeries, art galleries, Notre Dame cathedral, etc.) The check-in experience was very welcoming. We loved it!"
Antonio A., Seattle, Washington - USA St Germain des Arts
From initial contact in the US with Emeline to airport pickup, meeting our greeter and the support from Jovanka and the Paris staff, everything was perfect! Any minor issues were handled promptly with full professionalism and warmth. I would highly recommend Haven In and would gladly use their services again!"
Katherine C, San Diego, California - USA Kleber Vista
We have rented thru Haven In several times. St Germain des Arts was exactly as pictured, if not better! The new sound proof windows were an added bonus. We loved the location! Everything (restaurants, shops, churches) was just outside our door, many on the same street. We would most definitely rent this one again!"
Ruby W., San Diego, California, USA St Germain des Arts
I have rented different apartments in Paris for over a decade and this is my new favorite place. Wonderful apartment, surprisingly quiet even though it is located in the middle of everything. Wonderful location. Communication with both the us and Paris team was easy and responsive."
Taylor P, San Francisco, California, USA Rivoli Rooftops
Great apartment, will look forward to staying there again next year. Very comfortable."
Margaret H., New York, NY - USA République
This apartment is an absolute dream. It is close to most everything you would want to see in Paris. The apartment is very large and well appointed. It is well-decorated with new appliances and bedding. We absolutely loved it and will stay here next time in Paris."
David T., Garland, Texas - USA Rivoli Samaritaine
We had the amazing apartment right at the center of everything. We were met by a greeter who got us situated and the apartment was comfortable, clean and so awesome. Will definitely rent through Haven In again."
Jen P., San Jose, California - USA Rivoli Samaritaine
We rented a three bedroom in vavin area and for myself husband , son and granddaughter we had just the best time. We over looked the La Copola restaurant that we ate at twice because it was so fantastic and the neon lights on the building were so Paris. We at Italian, Asian and French and everything was so good.. Once we learned the Metro we could go any where in Paris from three different Metro stations. This company that was suggested by Rick Steves was so wonderful on every level. We even booked transportation to and from the airport, completely on time and also a tour out to Versailles. We hope to use this company again in the future! Sang Ae helped us so much in every way!"
Judy B, Grass Valley, California - USA St Germain Vavin
We loved our stay at charming Hotel de Ville apartment. We could walk to great restaurants as well as Notre-Dame Cathedral and nearby Metro stations. There are wonderful bakeries and fruit markets nearby. Everything is at your fingertips here. The apartment is clean and comfortable. We felt very safe and it had everything we needed. The layout is great for a couple or three people at the most. We would definitely come back to this lovely place."
Caitlin T., New York, NY (USA) Hotel de Ville
Paris locations dont get any better than this! 5 minutes to the Louvre; 10 minutes to the Pompidou Center; 2 minutes to the Bourse de Commerce! Louvre Charm is the perfect pied a terre. Everything you could need is there and the Paris team is amazingly responsive. Felt right at home!"
Donna L., Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada Louvre Charm
The apartment was fabulous with plenty of room for four ladies - great location to wander and explore Paris. Transportation from and to the airport made this trip a breeze."
Fran W, Corpus Christi, Texas, USA St Germain Université
This delightful apartment is in a perfect location for visiting Paris. It is very comfortable and the decor is restful. The staff at Haven In and Paris For Rent are so very helpful and professional. I highly recommend this company and this apartment."
Elaine L-R., Ann Arbor, Michigan - USA St Germain Classic
This apartment has been perfect for us (us 2 grandparents, our daughter and our 2 teenage granddaughters. Everything was in perfect working condition - including the aircon, washer/dryer and elevator which all came in handy; it was very well equipped and maintained, and such a wonderful location - quiet, great neighborhood, safe building. The staff was friendly, helpful, and prompt. Highly recommend!!"
Shauna T., Dallas, TX St Germain Odeon
We stayed at this location for the first time for 7 days and highly recommend it. The apartment is immaculate, well furnished and perfect for two people. The property manager, Thomas, was responsive and helpful at all hours. We would do this again!"
Anu S., Los Angeles, California Hotel de Ville
My daughter and I stayed at the Bonaparte Retreat in St Germain des Pres. The place was in a quiet street but a stone's throw from all the wonderful cafes and amenities of Paris. The apartment itself was totally renovated with modern appliances and furnishings so it was very comfortable. However, for Americans like us, be ready for no-AC in the summer months, as is typical of Paris and most of Europe. The remedy, besides ceilings fans and floor fans that the apartment was equipped with, is to open the windows. That provided a lot of relief, but without screens, mosquitoes came thru. Bring bug spray, etc. (or request portable ACs.) Otherwise, it was a lovely stay. Highly recommend it!"
Elizabeth C, San Jose, California - USA Bonaparte Retreat
Such a wonderful apartment for 2 couples. It is well located and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Beautiful bed linens and plush towels, PLUS a week-day housekeeping!"
Michelle C, Bridgewater, Canada Louvre Royal
My two teenage kids and I just visited Paris and staying in this 2 floor apartment for 9 days. It is a great location near the 6, 8 and 10 metro lines which get you wherever you want in the city. There is a fabulous street market every week that is super local and fun and 2 blocks away there is a street that makes any foodie happy with an amazing cheese, wine, epicure, fish, veggie and award winning pastiserie! The loft/apartment is funky, with lots of interesting art, a million books and a very eclectic feel. But, all appliances are modern (except for the stove that is gas that you have to light - but works great). It was so nice to have three bathrooms and 2 are very modern and updates and of course we love having nice washer and dryers. The whole place was very well stocked with everything from garbage bags, to umbrellas, lots of plug adapters etc. Cheers!"
Jessica O, Seattle, Washington (USA) Eiffel Tower Loft
Wonderful, comfortable and beautifully appointed apartment to visit Paris. Great light, secure, spotlessly clean. Staff extremely helpful and accommodating, but none more so than Caroline who went above and beyond to make our 6 week stay excellent. She is a gem!"
Kenneth H, New York, NY Louvre Royal
I cannot recommend this apartment enough. It was located in a fantastic part of the city. Everything was within walking distance and the Metro was very close. The set up of the apartment was great. It is a more modern interior but the showers were hot and with great pressure. The welcome greeter was a very nice touch. She walked us through the apartment and showed us where everything was located and how it all worked. I will definitely be using Haven In on my next trip to Paris."
Kimberley T., Tampa, Florida St Germain Odeon
Our family of six spent the Christmas holidays in this wonderful apartment. The space was lovely - exactly as pictured, with a very well-equipped kitchen which would have been perfect had we wanted to cook. Having two and a half baths for six people was also extremely convenient, and the large living room/dining area gave us plenty of space to gather and unwind. Communication was seamless, both prior to and during our stay, and our host was helpful and accommodating, arranging for us to drop our bags in the apartment prior to the time it was ready for check-in. Transportation to and from the airport was prompt, gracious and went off without a hitch. The neighborhood itself is busy and vibrant, with lots of shops, restaurants and nightlife for the younger members of our crowd. It is an easy walk to the Seine and all the attractions nearby. We have visited Paris many times before, but have always stayed on the Left Bank. We all agreed that we would happily return to the Marais for future visits, and would gladly stay in this lovely apartment again!"
Maura F, Frederick, Maryland Marais Cognacq
Bonjour Haven In I want to share with you my wonderful experience at the apartment of Place des Vosges. I loved it. J'adore!!! The apartment is very comfortable, elegant, tres chic, propre, very beautiful indeed. Equipped with everything necessary to make you feel at home, you even got me the French press for coffee. It is a safe and nice building. The windows of the apartment have a unique, wonderful view of Place des Vosges. It's enchanting and magical. The Rue du Pas de la Mule becomes Rue des Francs-Bourgeois, a central street in Le Marais with plenty of boutiques, shops, restaurants, cafes, almost everything you may be looking for. Great food around, believe me. I was in the center of everything I needed for a memorable vacation. And if you know French and like, enjoy French culture, of course much better because the communication with people is very nice and tres sympa. Tres beau sejour et une experience merveilleuse. Merci pour votre service et contact Haven In. J'espere revenir bientot. A la prochaine!"
Ana Z, San Juan, Puerto Rico - USA Place des Vosges
Lovely apartment, so well-planned and organized with a well-equipped kitchen that you can actually cook in after your trips to the market. And managed by such a responsive team. It is in a great area but you do have to be prepared to swim through the crowds when you walk out the front door. You do hear some street buzz even with the windows closed (but the bedroom is at the back and is completely quiet). But you are in the heart of a lively area with everything you need just steps away - wine, bread, groceries, more restaurants that you can count and of course chocolate! And though I didn't expect it the greeting team helped me lugged my rather heavy suitcase both at check-in and check-out which was a huge help given the steep and narrow staircase to the 3rd floor apartment! I will come back again given the opportunity!"
Joan V, Minneapolis, Minnesota St Germain Mazarine
The apartment is located in a perfect spot for us, the heart of the left-bank gallery district, a few blocks away from the Museee d'Orsay and the Louvre. The street itself is quiet but just a few minutes from several lively areas with shops and restaurants and super-easy access to several metros. It is an extremely spacious apartment for a 2-bedroom, and very well laid-out. Both bathrooms have been renovated and are fully modern and beautiful. The appliances in the kitchen and the washer/dryer are all new and work quite well. It was a perfect fit for us and we'd happily rent it again for any future Paris stay. Important to mention: we've rented many apartments through Haven In & Paris for Rent, and have found the team exceptional, from rental agents who honestly describe the exact condition of each apartment so you can pick and choose what is right for you, to the staff that greets you on the ground, who are warm and professional and a true pleasure to deal with."
Clay E, Sausalito, California St Germain Beaune
Well located within walking distance of most of Paris highlights. Metro stations, supermarket and multiple dining options close by. Accommodation clean and very comfortable. Full kitchen and on site laundry facilities available. Hot water supply plentiful but needs planning when more than three people are staying."
Kiran S, San Francisco, California St Germain Université
We spent three lovely months in this apartment! Views were stunning, the apartment was spacious and light and airy. WiFI and AC were excellent. Transportation was very easy from there. Felt very neighborhood-y and less overrun with tourists than some other locations, while still having everything pretty accessible from there. Shops on Victor Hugo were a very relaxing experience, as was the market on Rue Poncelet. The folks at Haven In/Paris for Rent were very accommodating, pushing my reservation from 2020 to 2021 until it finally happened in 2022. Laurence was also very lovely and very helpful on the French side while we were there. The only drawback was the noise level. Apparently the area around the Arc de Triomphe is full of night clubs. There are at least three within earshot of the apartment. Aside from the street noise from the cars and the honking and sirens, which as a New Yorker I can tolerate, the music from the clubs goes on until the wee hours, especially on a Saturday, when they can be out there until 5 or 6 AM the next morning. On the whole, I would stay there again, and it was an amazing experience."
EMC, New York, NY Champs-Élysées Vista
Completely in awe of this luxury apartment! Gorgeous light filled luxury apartment. Completely in awe of the view of the Eiffel Tower from the apartment. Relaxing on the posh sofa and seeing the Eiffel Tower was such a great way to hang out in the apartment! The furniture and art are amazing. The vibe is upscale comfort. Everything about this apartment is stunning. The art, furnishings, view, the white walls and floors and sexy light fixtures are super cool."
Bobbie B, Houston, Texas Eiffel Vista
*Gem* accurately describes the apartment! Approx 90 sq meters, with large kitchen and living room plus washer-dryer. Excellent location including outstanding French and ethnic restaurants literally a few meters from the apt. There is also a terrific oyster bar on Rue Dauphine, Bar a Huitres. The #4 Metro/Odeon stop connects with all of Paris and Rue Dauphine dead ends into Pont Neuf and a 15 minute walk to the Louvre. Also, the Sorbonne and Latin Quarter is only 10 minutes walk from the apt along Blvd Saint Germain. The Paris for Rent/Haven In team are first class and available for tour and museum and restaurant recommendations. They recommended Carylis, a private car chauffeur service which was excellent for airport pick up and drop off. Five Stars!"
Nick B, Rancho Santa Fe, CA St Germain Gem
The neighborhood, the greeter and the cleaners were top notch. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend the apartment to anyone. We would like to re-rent if we get the chance. We are a 75-year old couple and found it convenient in every way. We have been to Paris many times in the past 20 years and this was our best trip so far. We had several guests and they enjoyed it also."
Currie P, Winston-Salem, NC Voltaire
What a fabulous home away from home! We were delighted the moment we walked through the front door. The flat strikes the perfect balance between being right in the heart of the buzz and being a cozy hideaway after a long day wandering Paris. The layout is thoughtful, the aesthetic is on point, and the ambiance warm and welcoming. The HavenIn and Paris For Rent experience is the best we have encountered in many years of travel to Europe. The booking process was efficient, but the real difference came in the level of personalized communication that we received from Emeline, Thomas, and Victoria. Throughout our stay, we felt well cared for and confident that should any issues arise, they would be handled courteously, quickly, and professionally. Thank you for an elevated level of service. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will be booking this flat again."
Stephanie H, Oakland, California Hotel de Ville
Amazing property! Incredibly clean and roomy apartment next to an active dining district. Highly recommended!"
Jane B, Newport Coast, Alabama Eiffel Vista
This is the third time we have stayed in this absolutely gorgeous apartment. It is impeccably designed with original artwork, which changes periodically, exceptionally clean, and the service upon arrival and departure was very much appreciated. It is even more beautiful in person. The location is fantastic and our greater was very responsive. I highly recommend for those with the budget to enjoy. We look forward to our fourth stay!"
Kathryn C, Los Angeles, California St Germain Chic
The apartment was wonderful! Spacious, clean and well stocked. The room air conditioners kept bedrooms cool during summer heat. Great location. Customer service was excellent. We will stay here again!"
Joy K, The Villages, Florida St Germain Vavin
Wonderful spacious and well maintained apartment! Terrific location especially for a family. Appreciate that bedrooms have air conditioning especially since temperatures are so high in June. All personnel very attentive and cooperative. Would recommend to others."
Robert M, New York, NY Avenue Kléber
Great getaway! Stayed here with my two daughters (18 and 24) and we had a great time! Steps from Luxemberg Gardens and the B metro line. Several bus lines as well. Very convenient to walk to many locations or take public transportation to more. Very clean, loved having a 2nd WC, a dishwasher, and washing machine! Views are lovely - we enjoyed the Bastille Day fireworks from our windows."
Susan C, Wellesley Hills, Alabama Luxembourg Skyviews
We had a great time staying at the Louvre Royal apartment. A very spacious and well kept property, with a fantastic location for getting around Paris. The apartment is well furnished and maintained, with a very friendly housekeeper! We'd definitely rent this apartment again - enjoy it!!!"
Gary L, Cheshire, Connecticut Louvre Royal
Our multi-generational family of six, grandparents, child and spouse and two teenage grandchildren stayed in this exceptional apartment for nine days. It is beautifully appointed, modern, clean, QUIET, has three toilets (rare in Paris), air conditioning (rare in Paris), an open living area space with a fabulous kitchen. This was my husband and my 11th trip to Paris and this was the best place we have ever stayed. We walked almost everywhere. The location is unbeatable. It is on the top floor of the building and has tremendous ambient light and views of the sky and rooftops. It is safe and secure. We would stay here again in a minute. Paige, the agency's rental coordinator, excelled in customer service. She was responsive, helpful, competent and went the extra mile. She arranged airport car transfers and made everything easy. The only thing we'd recommend is that a safe be provided in the apartment for passports, valuables and small electronics."
Paula M, Vista, California St Germain Odeon
Beautiful! Would stay again! The apartment is beyond gorgeous! The location is perfect - very close to Luxembourg Gardens, St Germain district, major metro lines and bus stops. It's exactly what I pictured as the perfect Paris vacation."
Wendy S, Fairhope, Alabama Luxembourg Gardens Elegance
Our family of four loved staying at Rivoli Garden! The location is fantastic- we walked almost everywhere and if you’re traveling with children, there’s a lovely playground nearby. It’s also very close to a Metro stop and shopping including a grocery market- Monoprix which is so convenient for stocking your apartment with provisions. We loved all the windows- great light!- and the entire staff including our greeter once we arrived was easy to communicate with and very helpful! We had a small issue with the toilet leaking upon our arrival and it was fixed within hours. I couldn’t recommend Rivoli Garden more!"
Stephanie L, Chattanooga, Tennessee Rivoli Garden
We had the best experience at Rivoli Rooftops. The reservation process was friendly and efficient. Emeline was very helpful answering questions and offering to let us drop our luggage off early. The check in process was wonderful. We met Ata at the apartment and he showed us how everything worked and was available for questions. Everyone at this company responds promptly. The apartment itself was a dream. Very clean and well decorated and in a great location. We did not want to leave and will certainly use this company for our next stay in Paris and will recommend them to all our friends. Thank you!"
Kelly H, Kensington, California Rivoli Rooftops
St. Germain Bac is a small, beautifully engineered flat on the third floor of a classic building with elevator. It faces the interior courtyard so is very quiet; and the tall windows allow for plentiful daylight. The main room comprises a sofa bed, plenty of closet space, a small desk, a round dining table and a fully equipped kitchenette. The bedroom has a French double bed, comfortable linens, more closet space, and a well-equipped bathroom including combination washer/dryer. All fixtures are modern and well-thought out and the wifi is fast. Metro rue du Bac line 12 is a few minutes' walk away, as is the closest Velib bike rental station. Also in the neighborhood on the rue de Sevres, the very fine Grande Epicerie opposite the Bon Marche is a world-class grocery experience if or when you decide that you need a break from the area's plentiful brasseries and restaurants. The process of renting the flat from the Agency was uncomplicated, and the ground agent was available via WhatsApp for my questions and comments. St. Germain Bac is a top level experience from which to launch your Parisian adventures."
Gretchen V, Berkeley, California St Germain du Bac
Great location and very well maintained apartment. The staff really did help to remedy any minor problems we had. Highly recommended!"
Ingrid, Ithaca, NY Louvre Charm
Terrific apartment, great location! Everything was handled for us, seamless to get in and out of the apartment, everything was exactly as we hoped!"

Eiffel Vista is amazing! Wonderful stay over Christmas. Beautiful apartment with breathtaking views of the Eiffel Tower!"
Caitlin M, Seattle, Washington Eiffel Vista
Location, location , location. We loved having two nicely appointed bathrooms with lovely amenities and beautiful toiletries. The bedrooms were of ample size and have really good air-conditioning. Although there was a small kitchen, it met our needs as a vacation rental. We would rent this apartment again."
Jules B, Toronto, Ontario St Germain Classic
Out of the several beautiful apartments we have rented in Paris the St Germain Garden flat is the creme de la creme! Highlights are: 1) newly renovated so everything is modern and designed to match the tranquility of the outside garden that is easily seen thru all the floor to ceiling windows. When you return from the busy, bustling world of Paris and enter the peaceful beauty of the garden with the only sound being the lovely fountain that welcomes you home. 2) the location is perfect for walking everywhere in central Paris with Rue de Bac being just minutes away with wonderful stores, cafes, and world renown restaurants like L’Atelier de Joel Robluchon and Le Voltaire. 3) the Haven In staff welcomes you and makes sure all is working fine in the apartment. They are always available to assist you, answer any questions, and give you local recommendations. We only stay in the apartments they manage because of the excellent and professional service. 4) last and very important is the quiet atmosphere and very comfortable furniture, especially master bedroom bed. We look forward to returning next year!!"
Judith G, Kihei, Hawaii St Germain Garden
The modern apartment is well located near the Louvre, La Samaritaine and many other beautiful venues in a quiet street. It’s completely remodeled. Check-in was easy. When we arrived we were welcomed with croissants and coffee. The greeter was very collaborative and provided everything we requested. Excellent communication."
Romi, Oakland, California Louvre Charm
Fab! Lovely, centrally located, quiet apartment, very clean, with efficient, friendly and attentive staff and contacts who were always on hand and responded quickly and helpfully. Really recommend! I hope I’ll be back one day soon!"
