Haussmannian & Central - Montmartre/Sacré Coeur

no heating and no hot water Positive: The place is beautiful, it looks just like the photos and is in an excellent location. Negative: When we arrived, there was no heating and no hot water available. I contacted the hosts shortly after discovering this, however responses were slow and no practical solution or guidance was offered at the time. This situation was particularly problematic given that it was mid-winter in December, and we were travelling with a small baby and a toddler, for whom adequate heating and hot water are essential. The following day, we eventually located the boiler ourselves and turned it on. Had clear instructions been provided, this issue could have been resolved much earlier. Once the boiler was on, the heating began to work; however, the hot water supply remained insufficient. While there was some hot water, it was not enough for a proper shower or bath, which was again extremely inconvenient given our circumstances. Overall, the lack of basic amenities on arrival, combined with slow communication and the absence of clear instructions, significantly impacted our comfort and experience during the stay. We would expect essential services such as heating and hot water to be fully functional and clearly explained, particularly during winter and when hosting families with young children.

Le charme parisien de Montmartre dans un écrin familial Haussmannien. Positive: La délicate attention des "kits" : salle de bain et cuisine, et balcon ensoleillé le matin.

The apartment was every bit as gorgeous as the pictures show and the balcony was amazing!
