Perfect Location & Bright and Spacious Place
Excellent location! Close to everything. Apartment is very spacious. It is lovely and bright. I do agree about the ceiling height. The tallest person in our party of 4 was 5’6”, while two were barely 5’0”. Just watch your head! Regardless, we all loved and enjoyed our one-week stay, and sorry to leave.
Fantastic Location and comfortable place
Clos Jolie was a charming, clean and very comfortable apartment for us. Even though the apartment had smaller rooms, they worked well for our family of 5. The location very central to everything we wanted to explore in Paris. Franck and team provided great instructions to make sure we had a comfortable stay
Fabulous Apartment
Our family, 3 generations of women, found a perfect setting for our Paris holiday. The apartment is beautifully furnished with all needed amenities. The location is ideal for transportation, walking, and lovely restaurants.

Perfect Spot
Our favorite street in all of Paris is Rue Montorgueil, so Clos Jolie was the perfect spot...just minutes away from the action, but far enough not to be bothered by noise of it. Checking in/out was easy...the beds, pillows and bedding were all very comfortable...everything in the kitchen worked...it was great to be so close to food options, cultural options, shopping options and transportation options. We did notice that the hot water in the shower on the second level wasn't as hot or strong as on the main, but not to the point that we felt the need to alert PP (everyone has different definitions for what is 'hot' to them). And yes, if you are 6ft or taller (as 2 of the 3 of us are), you will need to be aware of the ceiling height in the bedrooms and bathrooms...but it's easily dealt with, so not a deal-breaker. We enjoyed our stay at Clos Jolie and would book it again.

Location is everything
Clos Jolie is perfectly situated on a small street close to the Louvre, Les Halles, Le Marais, and so much more. Tons of shops and cafes nearby. You enter into a private courtyard. The area is very safe. Would recommend this place highly. Note that the ceilings in the bedroom and baths are low, which was only a problem for blowing out hair and pulling shirts over one’s head.

We loved our stay!
The location is perfect and we have absolutely loved being here. The greeter was on time and always prompt with any answers to questions. The linens are superb, the best of anywhere we've stayed. The beds are so comfortable that we all slept soundly each night -- a wonderful thing to have on a trip. The transportation company was fabulous -- always prompt and texted me whenever I had a question -- so I never felt "out of the loop". The snacks that were waiting for us upon arrival was such a nice treat -- more than enough and we've had to leave the unopened ones for somebody else -- thank you so much! All in all, this has been a perfectly wonderful place to stay and I just cannot thank you enough for the professional job that your company does. It's rare to find everything just perfect but your company and this apartment has certain done that for us. Thank you again for being so wonderful to work with. I've been to Paris many times and always before have stayed in a hotel but now I'm sure we'll be back here again!

Great apartment
This apartment exceeded our expectations! It was very comfortable and bright, and very well located. The street nearby has tons of cafés, markets, shops and it was very accessible to a metro stop as well as many things within Paris that we wanted to see. The beds were comfortable and everything was clean and tidy. One of the bathrooms is quite small, which is important to note if you have a group staying and need the second bathroom.

Clos Jolie Review
Our family of four (two being teens) thoroughly enjoyed the Clos Jolie apartment. The kitchen, living and dining spaces had lovely tall ceilings, floors and furnishings. The three bedrooms were each tucked away to give us some individual space. All three of the bedrooms and bathrooms do have low ceilings, however, even my 6'4" husband found it to be manageable. He did need to watch his head in a few places. I've been to Paris many times over the last twenty years and have always appreciated the charm and quirks of the hotels, so I was glad that the Clos Jolie (which means "pretty enclosure") offered lots of personality. The location was central and wonderful, just steps from restaurants, shopping/metro at Les Halles and near Le Louvre. The building was very secure. The tiny elevator was functional for getting one person with one suitcase on at a time. (It wouldn't accommodate a wheel chair, should you need one.) Everything we needed for a week's stay was included - bath soap, shampoo, laundry soap, dish soap, even tea/coffee and several snacks . The washer and drier are full sized and separate units which work very well. A dishwasher, large fridge, Nespresso, electric kettle, toaster, oven, cook top. A hair drier was also provided as well as adequate linens.
Paris Perfect arranged for a driver to pick us up at CDG airport and Victor arrived in a large 7 passenger van that had plenty of space for ourselves and luggage. After arriving, Franck greeted us and gave us a tour of the apartment and showed us how to use the appliances. We never had any issues that we needed help with after that, as everything worked very well.
I would definitely stay again at Clos Jolie. Very tall people should be advised of the low ceilings in the bed and baths, however, we find these sorts of quirks and charm are part of European buildings and it's fun to enjoy them. The gorgeous living spaces with soaring ceilings and giant windows are where we wanted to spend our time. The parquet floors in the living area were absolutely perfect with just the right about of squeak. The kitchen is fully modern and well stocked, just right for making a coffee to sip in the living room while looking out window and perusing a Dior book from the book shelf.
Merci, Clos Jolie et Paris Perfect! A bientot!

Clos Jolie Review
Clos Jolie was perfect in every way. It's a beautifully decorated, bright and elegant Parisian apartment right around the corner from Les Halles. It's quiet and spacious - though you should note that the ceilings, while soaring in the kitchen, living room and dining room, are much lower in the bedrooms and bathrooms. My husband is 6'2" and had to stoop a bit, but we didn't mind - well worth it for the fantastic location. There's shopping, restaurants and nightlife in every direction, never mind that all the key spots you'll want to visit are right there, from the Louvre to the Marais, Ike-de-la-Cite .... Even though there was a transportation strike, we could easily get around the city from our cozy home base. You'd be lucky to stay here, hope you have the chance to enjoy it as much as our family did!

Clos Jolie Review
We very much enjoyed staying at Clos Jolie. It is so centrally located, and there is so much available at walking distance, from nice restaurants, to grocery store, and bakeries.
The apartment itself was very well furnished and equipped. It was nice to have the coffee capsules, tea bags, and a few snacks provided for us when we arrived.
The previous reviews I read did mention the low ceilings, and I was a bit concerned since I am the shortest in my family at 5 feet 9 inches. They definitely were low except for in the living room, dining room, and kitchen, but not something we could not work around.
Paul and Franck were both very gracious in answering our questions and showing us around the apartment.
If you do go in the colder months, the portable heaters they have do not warm up the rooms. So if you like it warm, ask them to increase the temperature when they give you a tour of the apartment.
All in all a great apartment and smooth process with Paris Perfect. Highly recommend them!

Clos Jolie was a perfect apartment for friends and relatives, with different sleeping hours and activities. The first arrondissement is urban and excellent. It was easy for a headquarters and as a home - excellent kitchen!

We were delighted with the apartment, the layout, and the furnishings. There was ample room for our family of 6 to get together or have privacy. We were pleased with its convenient location to charming streets (Rue Montorgueil), Les Halles, restaurants, and metro stations. We were pleased also with the travel wifi from Paris Perfect; this was very helpful with navigating the Paris streets. The cab service recommended by Paris Perfect to and from the airport was also very efficient. We highly recommend Paris Perfect for travelers to Paris.

The apartment is large. Lots of room for two couples. Headroom is a bit of an issue on the upper floor for tall people. Beds are super comfortable.
Kitchen has all essentials, including basic pantry items. On a side street, quiet except for street noise from garbage trucks. Building reno across street but no noise off peak hours. Location is excellent, with close access to Metro. Groceries, patisseries etc close by as well as very good dining options. Highly recommend.

I am very Grateful.

This was a wonderful apartment. It was beautiful, in a fantastic location, well appointed, comfortable - just incredible! We had a problem with the hot water which was fixed in no time at all. The recommendations by the concierge for restaurants, places to go and things to see were also wonderful. This is a 10.

What a fantastic location - so vibey with a great atmostphere and nightlife. There are so many interesting shops and restaurants within walking distance to the apartment. The metro station is literally 5 minutes away and great main attractions like the Notre Dame and Place Dauphine is close by. The apartment itself is spacious, with a fully rigged kitchen where it was so easy to fix breakfast before heading out to explore the 1st arrondissement and surrounds. We had a wonderful stay and will certainly plan on returning soon!

We could not have asked for a better location! This spacious apartment exceeded our expectations. It is within short walking distance from the metro and many attractions.

Paul met us at the apartment. Location couldn't be more perfect. Short walk to 2 Metro stops and the RER rail station. Louvre, Eiffel Tower, museums all walking distance! Lot's of food options close by which made for fun exploration. The apartment was immaculate and had all the modern amenities but also had historic feel with the original parquet floors. Owners left lots of books and great suggestions on sight seeing and restaurants. Highly recommended place to stay.

From the moment Paul met us at the apartment, our stay was magnificent. The accommodations were spacious, clean and beautiful.

This is a lovely apartment in a perfect location. It is equidistant from The Louvre and Pompidou with all other usual destinations an easy walk. The neighborhood is a foodie's paradise, with the best cooking supply stores, cafes and markets moments away. The apartment is quiet, comfortable and elegant. Paris Perfect staff are experienced professionals and handle the business side of things very well. A shout out in particular to Paul, their on site representative, for his kindness, courtesy and competence. Have stayed here before and will likely do so again.

Our apartment was amazing!! It was large and able to accommodate all of us, my family was celebrating my husband's 60th birthday. The kitchen is modern and gorgeous, we were gifted with coffee, tea, and various snacks. There are three bedrooms, two with queen beds and one with twin beds. There also was a television room with a couch that folded out into a bed. There were two full baths and one half bath, lots of towels available. The street is lined with lovely cafes and wine bars. The folks at Paris Perfect were very customer friendly, I called prior to my trip with a couple of questions and they were very nice. Paul, our greeter, was great fun. He met us when we arrived and gave us an overview of how everything worked and what was expected of us. If you need transportation, I highly recommend using their recommended taxi service, Victor, he was awesome.

This is the second time we have rented through Paris Perfect. In both cases, both the apartments and service were exceptional. I would and have highly recommend them to anyone looking for professional service and outstanding apartments.
Clos Jolie is precisely as described and pictured on the web site. Our welcome by Paul was warm and helpful. What the web site cannot adequately convey is the extent to which the location of this apartment is a food lover's dream. In addition to easy walking distance to all major attractions, this neighborhood is home to outstanding markets, shops, restaurants and cooking supply stores. We have visited Paris countless times, and this visit was by far the best.

We had a wonderful visit to Paris in August 2014 with the help of Paris Perfect. Our greeter, Paul, met us at the apartment with the keys and showed us everything we needed to know. The apartment was exactly as advertised (including the low ceilings in the loft and master bath). Other than that, the place was perfect. It was spotless with lovely furnishings and kitchen appliances. The kitchen and master bath are quite modern. The upstairs bath is quite small but adequate (our teenage girls used that one, we used the larger master bath). The apartment is ideally located on a lovely, quiet side street. Metro and Louvre are a short walk. It was not hot during our stay so A/C was not needed. Therefore, we can't comment on whether A/C is adequate.
We loved working with Paris Perfect. They were great to work with and helpful whenever we needed them. We will definitely use them again.
Clos Jolie Review
The apartment is very well located, just a couple of blocks from the Louvre Museum. Is closer to everything, so just walking we can visit the main attractions of this beautiful city. The apartment is nice, very well decorated in a classic style. It has 2 bedrooms and 2 clean and spacious bathrooms. The kitchen is fully equipped. The living room is elegant and luminous, and the dining room very comfortable. Nevertheless we spent the whole day visiting Paris, it was a pleasure to come back in the evening to rest, hear music or just share the experiences of a busy day, feeling at home. We were very happy renting this apartment, and we recommend it in a 100%.

There were six in our party and we stayed in the Clos Jolie Apartment. We could not have asked for a better place to stay. It was exceptionally clean, beautifully decorated and perfectly located in Paris so that we could easily get to and from all of the major attractions (we could walk to the Louvre). Paul was our greeter and proved to be very helpful and accessible. We were impressed with the amount of detail put into the apartment. There was a book which included suggestions for great restaurants, markets and anything else you would need. The apartment description told of the low ceiling on the second floor, however, once you got used to it, it was no problem. The majority of our time was spent on the first floor anyway. This was our first time using this form of housing and it will not be our last. Thanks Paul and everyone who helped make our stay such a wonderful experience.

Six family members stayed in the Clos Jolie. It was just as the pictures depicted. It was clean, beautifully decorated and located in a very safe area. We could walk to the Louvre. It was so nice to come back to a lovely apartment after a day of sightseeing. Thanks to our greeter, Paul, for spending time with my sister(the rest of us were delayed)to provide all information we needed. The attention paid to detail was impressive. Thank you Paul, and Paris Perfect for helping to make our stay a wonderful experience. We would not hesitate to stay in another Paris Perfect apartment. Thanks also for the recommendation to use Victor's taxi service from and to the airport. He was a life saver and I highly recommend him.

Great 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath apartment with kitchen, family room, and large dinning room. The bed rooms are 1 queen, 1 queen, and 2 singles, and there is also a sleeper sofa. The apartment also has a washer and dryer. You are about 2 blocks from the Louvre and 1 block from street with shops, markets, and restaurants. We were very pleased with the location. Ceilings are a little low in bedrooms and bathrooms, but it is Europe!

The apartment was great, position perfect for us and we just loved being there. One problem is that the height restriction was mentioned for the mezzaine level but not the bathroom 1 which my 6'6" husband found very difficult - he had to kneel in the bath to have a shower!!! The bath is raised and was only just high enough for me (5'3"). We didn't use the lift, too small and had advice that sometimes these lifts get stuck, the stairs are fine to use. Lots of great places to eat and have a drink or two. Look for the black door, my boys said a great place!!

Clos Jolie Review
My husband, two of our adult children and I had a most enjoyable stay in Clos Jolie, a beautiful apartment that in many ways felt a little like a French dolls' house. The apartment was very well appointed and tastefully furnished, with comfortable beds, a choice of pillows, and many thoughtful inclusions, such as power point adaptors, plentiful supplies of dishwashing detergent, coffee capsules for the Nespresso machine, soaps, body lotions etc. and lovely fluffy towels.
Paris Perfect seemed to have thought of everything we could possibly need. Their representative Wendy was on hand for our arrival, and gave us a very thorough hand-over for the apartment, which was spotless and very well located. The nearby Metro proved handy, and we were able to walk to many sites and various restaurants etc. (We also enjoyed discovering the good little restaurant called 'Fred and Ginger' right next door.)
As other reviewers have commented, several rooms in the apartment do have low ceilings, however my husband who is 185cm tall did not have a problem, so this unusual feature did not in any way compromise our stay.
Our week long visit was all too short. We will be back in Paris as soon as possible - and will happily stay at Clos Jolie again, or maybe try another Paris Perfect apartment!
Clos Jolie Review
We were met by Vincent, who was recommended by Paris Perfect to pick us up from the station, he rang and spoke to Wendy who was waiting for us. Wendy showed us around and went through everything there was too. She was delightful. We loved our apartment. It was roomy for our group and had everything we needed. The area is so much fun with lots of restaurants, food shops, bread etc.etc. we did not want to leave - unfortunately we would have loved to stay another week it was that good. I have been impressed with all the arrangements Paris Perfect have done for us, everything has been smooth and professional. Thank you for a lovely time in Paris. I will have no problems recommending you to all my contacts, as I am involved in the travel industry in South Australia.
Clos Jolie Review
The Clos Jolie apartment was everything the Paris Perfect website made it out to be, a dream come true in the heart of the 1st arrondissement. Great restaurants and markets are all over the area, and the Les Halles metro is just around the corner. We did a lot of walking to Paris Landmarks using the apartment as a base. The Louvre is only a few blocks away. Chatelet and the Marais were practically in our laps. If you don't mind a few more steps, you can walk to Ile de Cite and the Quartier Latin very easily. There are patisseries and boulangers nearby. We would return to this apartment in a heartbeat; in fact, we could live there.
Quirks about this apartment, none of which would stop me from renting it again:
- The owner put an extra level in a portion of the apartment, which added two bedrooms and a bathroom.
- The upstairs bathroom doesn't vent very well, so it is necessary to keep the door open between showers.
- The ceilings in the two-level area are maybe around two meters high. It is tall enough for most people to walk around. However, when you stand in the downstairs bathtub to shower, you have to crook your head a little to keep from hitting it on the ceiling.
- Even though the washer and dryer are new and advanced, the cycles are very slow, making it difficult to do more than one or two loads of laundry. The European style dryer (has a water collector instead of being vented) has to be emptied of water frequently.
- There can be quite a lot of noise from the courtyard, especially when the downstairs consulting firm is open (daytime) or the restaurant is open (nighttime). If you close the windows, though, you really can't hear anything.
Things that make this apartment awesome:
- While the kitchen equipment is not as good as what we have at home, the knives and pans are adequate for cooking most things you would want to. We bought a nice bamboo cutting board and left it there, because the one in the kitchen was too small. There are a market and a greengrocer around the corner. You can save a bundle by eating in.
- There are lots of power outlets.
- Everything is quite comfortable -- the sofas, the chairs, the beds.
- There are two and a half bathrooms. They are sparking new.
- The front windows open onto a typical Paris street, but not a busy one.
We are looking forward to our next visit!

From the moment we were met at the airport by Victor and driven into Paris we felt comfortable. We stayed in the elegant Clos Jolie apartment which was quite perfect indeed for our family. It was immaculate upon our arrival and Kevin the greeter explained all about how everything worked. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen well appointed. It was quite quiet inside, but in a great area for walking and window-shopping and enjoying the Parisian life. We expected the low ceiling height in the bedrooms and even the tallest among us (6'4") did manage to keep his head safe because we were prepared. In short, we had hoped for the best and found even better than we could have wished for.

We were a family group of 5 and stayed in the Clos Jolie apartment.The apartment was beautiful - very tastefully decorated and of very high quality. It was compact with some low ceilings, but apart form this was very satisfactory.
The location was excellent, central yet quiet, close to excellent museums and other tourist attractions, restaurants and the busy Chatelet les Halles metro stop (on the direct line from the CDG airport).
Parisperfect were very professional and helpful. Contact with them was easy both before the trip and during our stay - they could not have been more helpful and pleasant.
I would highly recommend this apartment and Parisperfect and would happily stay with them again.

Paris Perfect was a terrific agency to work with and we really enjoyed our stay at the apartment. There were 4 of us travelling together, and we stayed in a couple of hotels for the first few days and then moved to our apartment and what a difference! Our vacation truly started when we got to our apartment, we really enjoyed having a kitchen and living room. Both of which were great and we even had a dinner party for our friends who live in Paris. Paris Perfect's attention to detail and all of the extra travel and neighborhood information was much appreciated.
