I rented an apartment at the corner of Rue Tournon and Rue St. Sulpice in 2010 (a Cecile Apartment). I could see Gerard Mulot - the bakery -- out the window. Rue Tournon is a quiet street which we would take to get to the Lux. Gardens.. Buses run down Rue St Sulpice- but it wasn't too busy. Great location.-- easy walk to the Siene and to the Lux. Gardens. Odean metro is near- but we didn't need it much.

All three of these are in excellent locations. The Blvd Raspail has markets down the middle on Sundays (organic) and another day (too early in the AM to remember). This may be a bug or a feature. There is a nice smaller park at Sevres Babylone if you don't feel like walking your child to Luxembourg.

The area is upscale and extremely convenient to everything of interest and to shopping of all sorts. Thus I would base this choice on (1) whether there is air conditioning (2) what floor it is on and (3) whether there is an elevator.

It will be hot, and in France (and the rest of Europe) the first floor is our second floor, and the ground floor may be quite high (>14 foot ceilings), making a third floor room quite a trek with suitcases, groceries, etc.

Links to the apts will help.

Do they all have elevators? or will you have to walk - and how many flights (remember in Paris G is street level and the first floor is up one long flight of stairs, etc.

Do they all have AC? (there is no way I weven consider stayin in Paris in August without AC - temps in the 90s are quite common - but most apts don't have it.

I thikn the OP just wants comments on the location and can choose the apt herself.

They are all fine, of course, and all are relatively quiet. For locaiton, I would not choose the one on rue du Cherche Midi if the goal is to be near Luxembourg Gardens. It is much farther than the other 2. Either of the other two are about the same distance, the only difference is the one on bd Raspail is really more like Montparnasse and you'd be close to the very bottom entrance of the gardens. The one on rue de Tournon is on the north side and you'd be going to shops and restaurants in St Germain.

I usually stay in the Montparnasse area and know tha tpretty well and it would be fine, but bd Raspail is a noisy, busy street, so it does depend on the apt situation (does it look onto the street, etc., as to how noisy it might be, as well as the floor it is on. But there are plenty of restaurants and bakeries, etc around there and a couple metro stops.

Thank you all.

All the apartments I am considering have air conditioners and elevators. The one on Blvd Raspail faces the courtyard so should not be too loud.

I am looking for an apartment in Paris for September. Would you mind posting the link so I can see if it would work for me.

Thank you. Hope you have a wonderful trip.

Oops! Forgot to say which apartment:

corner of Rue Tournon and Rue St Sulpice

Thanks again
