"On our 3 wk Euro-travel, our 4 nights at Villa Montmartre were my favorite (Paris not my fave city-this changed my mind!) In a "real" area with tasty reasonably priced restaurants like Le Petit Blue or Sacre Fleur (the latter a bit more $ but great value), 5 min from the Chateau Rouge metro & a block from the Rue Muller stairs up the side of Montmartre, you couldn't be better situated. A kitchenette made leisurely breakfasts easy. (In addition to a wonderful boulangerie across the street, there is an Aldi down the street.) Staff are helpful and the place is kept clean and cheerful. Placed on the side of Montmartre with a mix of immigrant communities and young people/families you are spared the crowds that made me not like areas like Marais. We took several walks up the Butte - easily skirting the tourist crowds to go explore the Museum of Montmartre, find the windmills, go for some delightful French kitsch at Lapin Agile, watch the sunset and even duck into Sacre Coeur as it opened for a crowd-free visit. Favorite thing - massage chairs in the lobby were fun and needed for refreshing for an evening out. There is a small elevator (1 person/bag). Only complaint - need a closet bar/hangars. It is lively so if you are not used to city noise, get a courtyard room where the only sounds are the courtyard door and playing children. Re air-conditioning, if you need US style cold, find a Hyatt. Def use Chateau Rouge metro as others a bit chaotic. Nous avons passé un excellent séjour!"
