Is this legit? They don't have reviews of the homes on the site.

We’ve used them in the UK and France. Never have done us wrong.

I’ve rented through Paris Perfect and had a beautiful apartment overlooking the Pont Neuf. However, be aware that most short term rentals in Paris are illegal. It sounds like enforcement waxes and wanes, but it is something to think about. I’d probably go through a hotel these days.

Bolded is an overstatement. Paris has certainly cracked down, but there is still a very large short term rental market in Paris- you can rent out your primary residence up to 120 days a year with registration and some minor paperwork.

We rented in 2019 and again for this year- both are registered with the city and put their registration number in the listing.

I love to have a kitchen though. I hate eating every single meal in a restaurant, especially breakfast.

Np but in Paris you can get great pastries, get takeout, fun groceries at supermarket for a picnic…no need to cook to enjoy a larger space with a kitchen.

You can get all of these to your room at a nice hotel too.
