Homestay Customer Reviews

Claudine and Richard are two wonderful people. Their companionship and the moments we shared will remain among the happiest memories of my time in Paris. I always felt so comfortable around them thanks to their kindness and generosity. Their home is comfortable and welcoming, it has everything one could need, and it was the perfect accommodation for my Erasmus student experience.

I had an absolutely wonderful stay at Ambar's apartment! The location couldn't be better — it's right in the heart of everything, with easy access to shops, restaurants, and public transport. Whether I wanted to explore the city or just relax and enjoy the neighborhood, everything I needed was just steps away.

The apartment itself was stylish and well-equipped. From the cozy bed to the fully stocked kitchen and thoughtful little touches throughout, it really felt like a home away from home.

What truly made the experience exceptional, though, was Ambar. She went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and had everything I needed. Communication was fast and friendly, and she offered helpful tips about the area that made my stay even more enjoyable. You can really tell she cares about her guests.

I can't recommend this place enough and would absolutely stay here again in a heartbeat!

Séjour super chez Anne et François . Ils sont accueillants et toujours prêts à vous aider. Le petit déjeuner qu’ils préparent est délicieux . Le literie est propre et confortable. A recommander.

We had such a wonderful stay at Veronique's. The apartment is charming and close to the metro, so accessible to everything in Paris. Veronique was very friendly and helpful. She also has a very good sense of humor. Would love to come back and stay again. Thanks Veronique, Bastien and Nawak <3

Véronique is a very kind woman with a beautiful apartment. The room was spacious and bright, and it was also wonderful to get to spend time with her lovely dog. I would highly recommend Véronique to anyone staying in Paris!

Ambar was so helpful and kind. I got sick while in Paris and she even gave me medicine and treated me like a sister! Her apartment is a little slice of Parisian life and so comfortable, warm, and full of art. Thank you, Ambar!

I found this homestay to be in a lovely location and the space super pretty. I also appreciate the extra help Loan Sicre provided me when I arrived. She is a lovely host. Thank you so much.

Perfect couple of weeks in Paris with a great host and a lovely home. Felt very relaxed and at home whilst staying with Sylvaine, perfect host who’s easy to get along with. Perfect area of Paris away from the busy centre but easy to get to anywhere you need to, would 100% recommend this to anyone to visit Paris!

Such a pleasure to stay with Veronique! Comfortable accommodations, central location & kind host and thoughtful host. Plus you get to hang with her wonderful pup Nawad:) Highly recommend and look forward to staying again. Merci pour tout!

As a solo traveller of a (very) uncertain age, I love the Homestay concept. The daily social contact allows one the privilege of tasting the reality of a different country, culture and community. And with Véronique, for a month I could imagine (my) French life.
My sincere thanks and deep appreciation to Véronique, her sons Bastien and briefly Sylvain, and to Nawak (canine sibling), for their unflagging kindness and support throughout the month's stay. They endured my painful French without flinching, patiently gave practical advice and with thoughtful touches made me very comfortable in their home.
If ever I win the lottery, they will be my first call to reserve another visit........or two!

We have never stayed at a Homestay before so we were pretty nervous. Our flight arrived very late at night. Sunny let us know the metro didn't run that late and she would arrange a driver for us. When we arrived at the airport after traveling for many hours, we were exhausted. Sunny sent a message to let us know she had to use a different driver so she would meet us at the airport with a different driver. So late at night, she rushed out to meet unknown, weary travelers. So much kindness from the beginning.

She rode with us to her home. It was exactly as described. She had not made up the 2nd bed for us because she wasn't sure if we needed it. We said yes and she pulled out clean sheets and blankets and made it up. We chatted for a bit, she showed us how to get water, tea, coffee. She said to help ourselves to anything. Clean towels were provided and said to rest, we'd see her on the morning. She clearly communicated everything in very good English.

The beds were comfortable. The room was large and pleasantly decorated. The shared bathroom is small (we are large people) but entirely functional. Her flat location is about a 6 minute walk to metro or a tram line into the heart of Paris. We could leave Sunny's and be eating breakfast at a beautiful Cafe in central Paris 30 minutes. She even recommended where to get the best cafe experience!

The entire time we were in Paris, I knew Sunny would be there to help us if we needed her. She was very busy working herself and not home much, but gave us clear instructions how to reach her and guidance how to get around.

Above all, she made us feel comfortable and welcome. A foreign country with my son was overwhelming at times, but I knew I was not alone.

Thank you, Sunny. If you ever come to Washington, you are welcome in our home. You made our trip one that we will always remember fondly. Thank you for being such an inspiring host and a good person.

I enjoyed staying at Cécile’s apartment very much. It is located close to the metro station and it is very easy to get anywhere you want from the place. The room was bright, clean and cozy. Cécile was very friendly and helpful. I could use kitchen and bathroom any time. wi-fi was also very good.
I am very glad that I chose to stay here.

I recommend Anne and Francois 100% They are very kind-hearted, polite as well as helpful with Paris information. The room and bathroom are super clean, private and comfortable. Plus they provide a yummy breakfast too. I also really enjoyed being in the 19th Arrondissement - it's got the funk factor and is very well located to jump on the metro. I'd revisit this homestay in a heartbeat. It's fantastic. I actually miss them! Merci beaucoup Anne et François!

Great location, friendly and welcoming host, comfortable room. Super quiet even though it’s so central. We’ve been staying with Vero multiple times and it’s always been perfect.

I had a very pleasent stay in veronique’s home. The place is lovely and cozy and in the heart of city. All the places are very accessible from her place and bakries and bistros are very near by and additionally veronique is very openminded and understandable personality. I really appericiate veronique for her hospitality and made my days wonderful and guide me in amazing way…. For sure i will visit her place again….

Our stay in the property of Ms.Kaur was just amazing. The hospitality of Ms.Kaur and Mr.Kaur was unparalleled and their facilities viz, Drawing room, kitchen, toilets and also Living room were spotlessly cleaned and in the kitchen everything is available right from Oven to Fridge, Spices, Teabags, Cutleries everything. With their love and care myself and my wife didn't feel for a single moment that we were not in our home in Kolkata,India. We were so lucky that we had been hosted by the family of Ms.Sabine Kaur. We convey our heartiest gratitude to Madam Kaur and Mr,Swaranjit Kaur.

My review is very overdue however I cannot speak highly enough of my time staying in Montmartre with Sylvaine. She was a wonderful host: from accommodating my things to sharing meals and even meeting my mother when my family visited. I wanted to improve my French which she graciously obliged by conversing with me, only using English when needed. The home is wonderful and to this stay have photos I took of the sunrise through the windows as my phone background. It was always clean and well-kept with accessible food and space for my own in the kitchen (Sylvaine makes delicious yogurt). Meeting those who also came to stay or friends and family of Sylvaine who were visiting was also a highlight of my time, as everyone was so kind. I miss my room in the apartment often and can't recommend this homestay enough.

She is the amazing woman i met, caring,loving,giving,kind and nice,encouraging me all the time when i need,we become friends. Is really wonderful i can’t use more words to describe my feelings.it’s really wonderful experience that i have.she will make you feel so safe in pairs and you also feel pairs and her home like ur home.
I am so lucky to know you from homestay。
There r many people in our lives, and I am fortunate to have met someone who can accept our own thoughts and share common topics and love. I cherish it very much. Just like an ancient saying, only those who have received love will give love. She made me feel a lots of love and life

Mon séjour chez Véronique a été merveilleux ! Elle est très professionnelle, soignée et très gentille ! Vous pouvez aussi très bien lui parler en anglais! Elle m'a personnellement montré où je pouvais faire mes courses, où se trouvait la station de métro et très souvent où et comment arriver à destination-par exemple:Musée, Sacré Cœur et bien d'autres-sont accessibles. Elle a même tout imprimé pour moi. Véronique a été d'une grande aide ! Son fils et le chien sont très, très gentils tout comme elle! J'ai eu beaucoup de plaisir à être là avec eux-17 nuits! Je recommande à tout le monde de séjourner chez Véronique! Géographiquement parlant, elle n'habite pas loin du centre-Opera,Louvre,Les Jardins des Tuileries etc.- on peut tout rejoindre à pied,je l'ai fait, tous les jours. J'ai ainsi pu vivre la vie française et découvrir plein de belles choses. C'était merveilleux ! Je tien à remercier Véronique, Bastien et le chien de m'avoir accueilli si chaleureusement et d'avoir été si gentils avec moi. Tout s'est passé si facilement, sans aucune pression ! Merci beaucoup !

I had a wonderful time at Patrick's house! It was my first time in France, but thanks to him, I was able to enjoy my stay in Paris. Patrick actively taught me about French culture and language. We enjoyed French home cooking and wine together. His son practices the harpsichord and I enjoyed his beautiful music. The room has a good view, is clean, and is quiet. I was able to sleep well at night. The common areas are also kept clean. When I was leaving, Patrick even helped me carry my luggage. I am truly grateful to him for helping me in every way. My time here is a memory I will cherish forever. I highly recommend Patrick's house!

Very easy communication with Sunny she advised on my journey from the airport to her address and even met me at the local station. A very comfortable bed for the night and a hot shower. Would recommend.

Prime location. Clean and oh so cozy. I enjoyed my stay with Véronique so much. I look forward to staying here again!

It’s a block or so from the Moulin Rouge windmill. Within 5-10 min walking to bus or metro to get anywhere else in Paris (sooo easy to get around). Tons of eateries within walking distance (pizzou is right across from the apartment), a cafe to drink or eat at every other street corner (Parisian style on the sidewalk under a sun umbrella). An excellent boulangerie, coffee house, and grocery just minutes walk away.

I chose the room with my own shower and sink for the convenience and the view out the balcony down to the street below gives a very classic French feel (Instagrammable, perhaps?) for those of us not living in Paris. Got free use of the kitchen and fridge as needed. Their pup is the gentlest most loving companion - especially since I was traveling without my family and pup. WiFi was stable and easy to connect to.

She is so kind and caring, while so easy to live with as she is very respectful of my privacy and space. She has great suggestions for local shops and I enjoyed sharing a meal with her and learning more about her. I can’t wait to come to Paris again and stay with Véronique - or the very least, share a meal together.

The great lady with pure soul is made of kindness. She was helping and good in understanding the guest care and support. I was so happy that she was good in English to communicate easily. She offered all his kitchen with full stuff and served with welcoming fruit juice. I faced trouble of extra transactions on my bank card at carrefour store she helped to call the store and assured me to look after the issue on my behalf because it was last day of my stay at Paris.

J'ai beaucoup apprécié mon petit séjour au coeur de Paris dans une chambre très spacieuse et lumineuse dans l'appartement de notre hôte Véonique.. Très bon emplacement à (10minutes à pied) du Sacré Coeur, de la butte Montmartre, Moulin Rouge.
-Tous les commerces, transports en commun très accessibles..
- Chambre très agréable, couchage très confortable, à disposition oreillers, couettes..
- Espace rangement, grande armoire avec tiroirs..
- Salle de bain privative très propre et moderne. Serviettes de toilette, sèche cheveux....
- Bonne isolation double vitrage sur 1 rue passante.
Très bon accueil par notre hôte très serviable, agréable et disponible.
Et ne pas oublier LAWAK leur chien tres affectueux et de très bonne compagnie..
Je n'hésiterai pas à me loger à cette même adresse lors de ma prochaine visite sur Paris. Je recommande sans hésitation..

Sonny is an incredible host! She even picked us up from the metro station when we first arrived! She is gracious and generous! The location is great, a 7 min walk to the metro and in less than a half hour your in the center of the city! Be prepared to carry luggage up a few flights of stairs! But Sonny and her space is awesome!
