You know, it's really the small things that make all the difference. There are a zillion sites out there with pictures of the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe, and the Louvre.  But the fact is, Paris is more than monuments.  Paris Apartment Rentals aims to offer you the inside scoop on everything you need -- travel, lodging, culture, health, and more.

High quality rental options can be particularly hard to find in Paris. For visitors staying more than a few days in the City of Light, it makes good sense to rent a furnished apartment: it is (or should be) cheaper than a hotel, and it lets you really live in the capital, rather than simply pass through it as a mere tourist.

Short-term stays are relatively easy to arrange. However, the longer the stay, and the larger the apartment (two bedroom apartments are a rare find), the harder it is to find a solution. And if you are picky about your location, well, the going gets tough very quickly. Finally, if you have the misfortune of living on a less-than-Gatesian budget (ah, those sabbatical salaries!), you need to look extra hard. The good news for students is that Paris has quite a range of affordable studio apartments for medium- and long-term rental.

The job of Paris Apartment Rentals is to make the search process simpler. PAR is not an agency, and we accept no commissions: we merely provide information about agencies and listing services, and we then let you duke it out with the other party. (We do accept advertising on this site to help pay the bills, but there is a firewall between the ads and our content: we just don't care what the advertisers say.)

We also provide general information on taking full advantage of the City of Light. Whether you are looking for information about public transportation, event tickets, or medical help, we are your source.
