A bottle of wine has been left in the apartment for you it s our way of saying Thanks for booking with VIP and welcome to Paris! Please visit Guest Services for our VIP Welcome Basket, passes, transfers, and more! http://www.vacationinparis.com/guest-services Arrival Day: Although the manager has your arrival details, they ask that you give a quick call to confirm that you are on the way to the apartment to meet them for the keys. This will provide good communication and ensure a smooth check-in. We recommend that if you are arriving into either the airport or rail station, that you make that call after collecting your luggage, but prior to making your way to the apartment. As you exit, you should see pay phones available if you are not traveling with a mobile. Most pay phones do require a calling card which you can purchase at a Tabac. Do not go to the apartment without calling and personally speaking with the manager first. Please do not leave a message as with French mobiles, the manager may not get the message until hours later. Be sure to keep trying until you reach them directly. Your Paris Manager: Your local Paris manager during your stay is Daniele Degouy-Andlauer. You may contact her on her mobile at 06 80 40 57 43 or email her at daniele.andlauer@neuf.fr.

If you leave a message, be sure to clearly state your name, phone number, apartment and the best time to return your call. In order to make your stay the best that it can be, please contact Daniele if you should find anything out of order or need additional assistance. Any issues or complaints with the apartment should be addressed during your stay. This will give us the opportunity to correct the issue and make your stay as comfortable as possible.
