You've decided to visit Paris and stay in a vacation rental rather than a hotel. Maybe you just don't like hotels, maybe you figure you can make your hard earned cash go further. But you're concerned that you don't speak the language.....

There is a solution!

Coach House Vacation Rentals, the leading specialist in short term central London rentals (www.rentals.chslondon.com), have now opened in Paris - same quality rentals, same personal service. And - most important - English speaking management in Paris and representatives who will show you in, tell you about the local area and answer any questions you may have.

• English is the native language of all their reservations team and spoken fluently by all their staff in Paris.
• You are met by an English speaking representative who shows you in, tells you about the local area and answers any questions you may have.
• Each rental comes with its own mini-guide written in English and covering the neighbourhood shops, local transport, bars, restaurants and cafés, and emergency services.
• They operate an English speaking telephone help line to provide guests with answers to questions about Paris, what to do and see.
• An English speaking 24/7 number is also provided in the unlikely event of an emergency - such as losing keys.
• A car (usually with English speaking driver) to meet you at the airport and take you to your Paris rental can be arranged on request - by far the easiest way to get into town with lots of bags.
  

They currently have 16 properties on offer including a large family house in the upscale 17th and several quality apartments in the 4th - The Marais and the 5th - The Latin Quarter. Full details together with suggested itineraries and a helpful list of things to see and do can be found at: www.rentals.chsparis.com.

A good reason to visit Paris in August is that it's blissfully quiet as most Parisians have the month off. Although a few cafés might close, those that stay open are very happy to have your business. You'll always find a seat on the Métro and your local boulangerie will never run out of your favourite bread. Many Parisians who remain in Paris claim that August is their favourite month, as it is the only time they truly get to discover their own city without the usual population hassles!
