My Maison in Paris Invalides

Bleiben Sie das nächste Mal wieder. Das sagt alles. Das nächste Mal hoffe ich, mir ein Gebäude mit mehr als 2 Etagen schenken zu können

I wish I found this place sooner! I was in a hotel prior to my stay at My Maison, but I was looking for a place with kitchen amenities and I found My Maison. This place is a gem! It has everything you need in the apartment. It’s a 2 minute walk to the closest metro, a short walk to the Eiffel Tower, and it’s in a lovely neighborhood (with less tourists which was refreshing) where I felt safe at night as a solo female traveler. The check-in process was smooth and efficient and the follow up service was exceptional. I highly recommended staying here. Ideal for solo travelers, couples, and families. I saw many different travelers during my stay here. I will be staying again next time I come to Paris.

My Maison went above and beyond my expections. Our family of 4 stayed in Room 023, which is a 1 Bedroom Superior Apartment. The apartment was clean, comfortable, and beautifully furnished with the amenities we needed. I loved all the natural light from the windows. Our room overlooked Rue de Grenelle and Rue Amelie. Upon arriving, the provided QR codes worked perfectly. We had a little trouble finding the room, but there was a very lovely hostess on site who helped us and made sure we were good for our stay. I read other reviews about security being an issue, but we always minded our surroundings and made sure nobody followed us into the areas requiring QR codes. The location was conveniently located to the metro that connected us to everywhere we needed to go. Plus the Eiffel Tower was a nice 10-15 min walk. There are also several nice restaurants, cafes and shops nearby. I booked directly through My Maison, which was cheaper than other outlets. The booking process has multiple steps but the directions were clear. After booking, we received a confirmation and check in form to complete. Then My Maison collected a deposit, and then we were given the room number and QR codes the day before check-in. They also provide a helpful video on how to use the QR codes. Would definitely recommend to others and would love to stay here again in the future.

This place worked for me, but it's certainly not an ideal stay, expecially at the price. I had probably their smallest studio. The positives: *The studio had everything that was advertised. I had a room at the back of the building - which I HIGHLY recommend. The lone window overlooked a local small church and a little park associated with the church. I enjoyed the green, the quiet (especially given this is a densely populated area), along with the fun views of the backsides of the neighboring buildings, and the children at play in the afternoons. I never turned on the AC or heat; just opened and closed the window; very nice. *The shower was decently hot and adequately strong pressure. The towels were lovely - fluffy and thick and large. *The bathroom had a towel drying rack as well as hooks; very nice and appreciated in a compact apartment. *The kitchen had everything it needed to have to do some basic cooking/heating/reheating. The all--in-one stove/microwave (and all appliances) had good instructions in the apt. manual. *The high ceiling and paint/wallpaper, along with the lone big window, made the space feel comfortable. *The clothes washer/dryer worked nicely and was much appreciated. (Do be aware these all-in-one washer/dryers either a) require hang dry of damp clothing, which is what I did, or a very long dry cycle.) * I appreciated having a safe large enough for my tablet, cash, credit cards, passport. Location, location, location. *This place is far enough (a couple of blocks) from the wonderful Rue Cler to not hear the noise of people and traffic (at least on the back side of the building), and yet Rue Cler - with its fruit store, fromagerie, etc., as well as a little Franprix with helpful staff - is just steps away. Very convenient for food shopping. * I took the bus over to the Eiffel Tower area, but it's really fairly close. I walked back. * My 1:1 tour guide recommened bakery Maison Othon two blocks away, and I very much enjoyed their bread, sandwiches, and pastries. Outstanding and a good value. * I highly recommend Bistrot Behhara also very nearby. An elderly neighbor lady stopped me while I was reading its menu and told me how delicious it was (and I had already read really good reviews online), and then she and four also elderly friends came in for lunch while I lunching there. Fun! The place filled up 100% over the lunch hour, but arriving before noon, I was seated immediately. I appreciated some guidance from the waiter (who spoke much better English than I did French). * A nearby bus stop (buy your pass first elsewhere) is just a block away (down Rue Amelie which is in front of the hotel), and your standard Google Maps guide can show you which buses to take and how to find them. Wonderful way to look at the city as you travel; slower but more enjoyable than the subway. Although I did take advantage of G7 & Uber, I mostly just took the bus and walked. The negatives: * I had to climb up precari

We loved our apartment! It was surprisingly bigger than we expected... it is still small, but from other reviews we were surprised! Small apartments are to be mostly expected in Paris. The kitchen was fully stocked with utensils if you wanted to cook--- we did not! The beds were comfy, even the pullout sofa bed, and linens very soft. The apartments are decorated beautifully too! I felt safe with the code to get in, tip- use all the codes given, do not zoom in to one! The stairs and elevator also require a code. So if someone gets in the door, they still need codes to get further. It was a lovely residential neighborhood and you could see the Parisians on their way to work each morning, and even school children. We felt very safe. The close proximity to Rue Cler was wonderful too! Le Eclair is a pretty spot to eat in, their eggs are amazing, and the staff very friendly. And the Eiffel tower view was amazing from our large balcony too! Highly recommend these apartments.

What a fantastic stay at My Maison Invalides. We stayed in apartment 25. Prior to arrival we were sent all the check in details...very clear instructions. The digital key is a QR code which unlocks the main entrance as well as the door to the building and the individual apartment. Security is great and the location is so good...we felt very safe. Many cafes and restaurants around and the metro is just 5 mins walk away. The Eiffel Tower is 10-15mins walk away. Easy walk. The apartment is one of the best I've stayed in, so clean, so modern, and so nicely decorated. We were a family of 4, so the adults slept in the main bedroom and the kids had the sofa bed. No complaints from the anyone. I would definitely stay here again.

Arrived with my husband excited to spend 10 nights in Paris. The apartment was a total let down.When we arrived just by coincidence a manager was there to help us with the entry. If she had not been, it would have been a total hassle getting in. Then she literally pointed to the unit and took off. She never showed us anything. For example, where the central light switch was, where the book of instructions for the unit was, etc., absolutely nothing.No assistance at all. Perhaps this was because the unit was dark, small, and dank-and she knew it. What a shock! We immediately asked to be moved, and was willing to pay extra for an upgrade, or give us our money back and we would go elsewhere. They refused to return our money and the next day ( after a horrible night) we moved to an adjacent unit that was only slightly better and brighter. For the amount of money charged we expected to have somewhere to put our clothes other than living out of a suitcase on the floor. Barely could fit in the shower, and seeing anything was a challenge because it was so dark. The patio was bare, ugly with exposed pipes to look at. Went days without internet because never could find the manager again, and when finally did was told password was on the wall. Maybe you could have mentioned that when we checked in? This was not the first time we rented an apartment in Paris. The other experience was perfect. This was a joke. I’d like my money back. Stay away from all the garden apartments unless you want to live in a cave.

2 stars due to safety! Despite the place being clean and comfortable, SAFETY is a big issue. I had a digital key that opened two doors and yet I witnessed random people coming in as guests were leaving the hotel. My bags were stolen from the corridor of the main building (after two locked doors) but three staff members were around. 4 luggages and 3 backpacks being taken out by a young boy but no one said anything? (Seen in the cameras). The cameras showed how people just sit and wait until guests either arrive or leave the building and they wait until the last minute before the doors fully close. I also witnessed it the following day as a family had just exited and someone just opened the door and went in. Once we entered he looked at us and left the building. He couldn’t get through the next door and he saw we spotted him. We should have moved to a hotel but at that point, we had nothing left to be taken. The management only cared about a police report. We were told by the police that there’s a group of thieves that know the locations of Airbnb’s. It’s an inside job. They advertise by saying that staff is in the building 24/7 so it's hard to believe that no one saw the bags being taken out. The directions of where to store your bags are very poorly done. Just keep your bags with you at all times and don’t let anyone come into your room unless you’re present! Honestly, it's not worth the headache.
