RESERVATION PROCESS

Paris-Luxembourg-Residences is specialized in furnished short-term rentals. Our aim is to help people find the most suitable apartment during their stay in Paris. Here is how to book an apartment.

Reservation

Send me an email with your choice of apartment and dates. I will reply to your inquiry the same day, usually within the hour, except when I am travelling.
I get many requests every week for only a few apartments so, if the apartment is available, book it fast.
Give me your name, address and fax number. I will provide you with a short-term rental agreement.

30 percent of the rent has to be sent in advance.
The balance of the rent will be paid ten days before your arrival. The reservation is confirmed once you have returned the signed contract, along with the down payment.

Security Deposit

The Security deposit is given upon your arrival at the apartment. The security deposit is, of course, returned to you at the end of your stay, provided there are no damages and the apartment is left in a clean condition.

Up to one week rental: the security deposit is 30 percent of the rent. I will only cash it in case of damage or loss.
For five weeks rental and more : the security deposit is equal to 1 month's rent.

Payment

The following forms of payment are accepted:

Paypal ( four percent Paypal and Currency Conversion Fee)
Wire transfer (15 euro bank fee to add onto the bill)
Cheques in euros if the rental begins one month after the payment
Cash

Additional Costs

Telephone:

Telephone bills are never included in the rental price. You must pay for them separately. Some apartments have free local calls.

Heating, Electricity and Water

Central heating, electricity and water are included in the rent.

Arrival

Someone will be at the apartment to welcome you (usually myself or someone on my behalf). In order for us to assist you, we encourage you to give us the approximate time of your arrival at the apartment, by sending us your flight or train schedule via email.

The balance of the rent will be paid upon your arrival as well as the security deposit.

Departure

Someone will be at the apartment at your departure (myself or someone on my behalf). Please call me (or email me) three days before you leave the apartment, to organize an appointment.

Cancellations

If you cancel less than two months prior to your arrival, your deposit/down payment is non-refundable unless we are able to re-rent the apartment for your dates.

If the cancellation is made two month or more before the rental dates, you will receive full reimbursement.
