Hotel or Apartment: Where to Stay in Paris?
As an expert in luxury vacation rentals, I'm often asked my opinion of the large number of individuals offering their personal Paris apartments up to strangers for daily and weekly rentals on VRBO and Craig’s List. Frankly. there are obvious advantages, most notably the ability to enjoy the comforts of home verses the often cramped quarters of a Paris hotel room, but that's just the start. Staying in a Paris apartment isn't just about roominess, it's an opportunity to experience Paris life as a native in the glorious city of Paris. It allows you the freedom to immerse yourself in Parisian culture, much like role playing. There are no distractions, and best of all, loads of privacy.
As a renter, one is faced with risks. Yes, arriving in Paris and finding things have been exaggerated is definitely a possibility, and having no recourse. It's actually mind boggling when you begin to think about all the potential for disappointment even in Paris, the City of Light.
So, what's the bottom line? There are obvious things to mull over when considering an apartment or a hotel, but in the end a reputable agency with real references, you can actually check is golden. Anyone can use a friend as a reference, but former guests will always tell you the good, bad and ugly.
However, this is not always an easy task and you've got enough on your mind planning your Paris vacation. My solution, and the reason agencies like Paris Luxe Apartments, www.parisluxeapt.com exist is to offer you peace of mind. Do yourself a favor and seek out a professionally managed US based agency offering multiple Paris rentals. Make sure the agency accepts credit cards and doesn’t over exaggerate how perfect the apartment is. Most importantly, an agency is accountable for your experience and have the on-site Paris staff to deal with any issues. The reason I recommend Paris Luxe Apartments over other Paris Luxury Apartment agencies is that they are determined to offer luxury extras traditionally found in a Paris hotel. This is guaranteed to make your Paris vacation apartment stay unforgettable.
