We had a wonderful and memorable week in Paris with our 3 kids aged 10, 8 and 5. The Folie Mericourt is a fabulous apartment equipped with everything you need and beautifully decorated. Pascal really makes it feel like a home from home and is incredibly hospitable and helpful. Nothing is any trouble. It is excellently situated near various metro... More

We had a wonderful stay in the apartment it was like home from home, clean and very well equipped. We usually stay in a hotel but I have to say that this was far superior with the freedom to get up, eat and come and go as you please. Pascal was lovely and was really helpful with directions etc. The... More

I am reviewing the Folie Oberkampf, another property owned by Pascal that isn't listed directly here. Pascal was very accommodating with my 9 pm arrival, and even called during the stay to make sure everything was OK. I spent five nights, four with my son and his companion. It was great to be off the regular tourist grid. The apartment... More

First and foremost Pascal is the perfect host. His own apartment is right next door so if you need anything he is there. That said, he is in no way intrusive and leaves you to your own devices unless you ask for assistance. The apartment itself is spotlessly clean and extremely well appointed with eveything we needed including free WIFI,... More

The apartment was clean, comfortable and warm. The owners were helpful and very hospitable. The apartment was very well stocked with bread, cereal, milk - in fact, the piéce de la résistance was the home-made jam. We had no need to shop for any basics! It is centrally located with easy access to main attractions via the tourist-friendly metro, with... More

Extremely comfortable, warm (we were there in winter) apartment, beautifully decorated and conveniently located near the metro. Very welcoming and friendly hosts who were helpful at all times, with the booking, and flexible with our arrival and departure arrangements. There is a little balcony which I can imagine would be very nice to eat breakfast on in the spring/summer. Perfect... More

What a wonderful find. Thank you so much Pascal (and the Guardian travel). Stayed with our 3 kids (13,11 and 7) during the half term. Everything was just right from beginning to end at the wonderfully located Folie de Canal, with views of the Sacre Coeur and the top of the Eiffel Tower. So well placed for walking about Paris....

Belated review of our stay in September...most others have covered what an outstanding spot this is in Paris so I'll only add a couple of notes. Location, comfort, views, convenience, close to metro, many restaurants nearby, full kitchen, full bathroom, hairdryer and toiletries, closet space...all this plus a safe for valuables, closet hanger and shelf space, and very convenient key...

The Folie Canal apartment does not have its own website, so I'll review it on this one. Pascal and Pascal own this lovely two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment located close to Folie Mericourt. My husband and I (we're in our 60's) spent 8 nights there and loved it. Cereal, bread, juice, milk, coffee, tea, yogurt and the world-famous jams were stocked for... More
