Short-term vacation rentals

If you're staying in Montmartre for a week or longer, a rented apartment may be cheaper than a hotel. As a bonus, you'll have more space, a kitchen, and other perks such as a clothes washer and high-speed Internet access.

We recently stayed in an apartment on the rue de Steinkerque that we found through Michele Vannoni's Home Rental Connections, which has several apartments in and near Montmartre. The attractively furnished flat was roomy, light, and comfortable, and it even had a small balcony. (The only thing we didn't like it about it was the WC in the broom closet, but city-shy suburbanites might be put off by the building's location on a tourist-packed street of souvenir shops and discount fabric stores just below Sacré-Coeur.)

Our booking partner, Venere, represents an apartment on the rue Yvonne de Tac that looks very appealing; it's more expensive than some other flats in its price range, but it can be booked by the night, which makes it worth considering if you're visiting for only a few days.

Another property that specializes in short stays is the Résidence Pierre & Vacances City Montmartre, which has 76 studios and two-room suites in a renovated building near the Théatre d'Atelier. Seasonal rates vary with the number of rooms and guests.

To find more apartment listings, search Google for "Montmartre apartments," "Montmartre vacation rentals," and similar phrases. For a stay of a week or two, we'd recommend renting through an established vacation-rental agency or booking service; if you're planning to visit for several months or longer, you can try other options such as Craigslist Paris, Lodgis, and FUSAC.

Caution: Rental agencies and landlords often define "Montmartre" in very broad terms, so know your Montmartre geography and consult a map before booking.
