Location perfect for the old town. Nice views onto the street. Peaceful. Well equipped. Comfy bed and nice pillows. Warm on a very cold night. A very pleasant place to be.
The steep stairs are challenging!!
All instructions are in French and whilst I appreciate it’s in France some travellers may miss vital information

Nice apartment, great location right in the old town. Free parking in the street outside if you're lucky, otherwise paid parking within walking distance.
The apartment (#3) is right at the top of the building, and you have to negotiate 3 flights of quite narrow stairs, which is a bit of a problem if you are carrying luggage. Also, I don't think some of the photos on booking.com are of this apartment, particularly the shower which, when I stepped into the bath, the shower head only came up to my chest, but you could take it off the fitting and move it around.

We loved the apartment. Very stylish, very cosy and very comfortable. Location is brilliant - in the heart of the fortified town and looking across to the Notre Dame. A wonderful Boulangerie and very cool bar, Le Vole Hole right on the doorstep. Great restaurants just down the road. Thierry was great with communications, making it so easy for us
Nothing to be honest! Though do be aware the staircase up is very steep

Comfortable, clean apartment in an ideal location opposite the cathedral. Good communication from Thierry (the host). Free parking on the road outside. Lovely places to eat and drink close by.
Cooking smells from restaurant downstairs.

Great location, comfy and easy to access
Nothing in particular. Stairs up and down are a little tight but easy to get up and down if you’re a normally active person

The location was very good and it was easy to park nearby and to find the property. The apartment was very clean and the beds comfortable and it was warm and cosy in terrible weather. We managed to find spare bedlinen for the sofa bed and extra towels which was good. We were able to walk everywhere. There is a kettle which is always welcome.
We thought the apartment was on the first floor (not sure why) and the stairs are very steep - but we are quite fit seniors so it was not a problem for us. We could not find any large cups or mugs for tea/coffee? But the apartment is otherwise well equipped.

Clean, decorated, stylish. We know it well and like it. A 20m walk across the way to a excellent restaurant and the cathédrale
Nothing go disappoint

Been coming to Boulogne for years and this is the first time we’ve stayed in this apartment and won’t be the last!
Clean, comfortable and cosy and couldn’t be more central for accessing the lovely local bars and restaurants.
Thierry was super responsive adding to the ease of our short stay.
As most others staying here have mentioned, the stairs are very steep so we were pleased our apartment was situated on the first floor!

Important Safety Concerns - Please read before booking.
Future guests should be aware that this apartment (apartment 3) has some serious safety considerations. It is located in the attic and can only be accessed by climbing three very steep, uneven & narrow stairs which in parts lack handrails. At the top there is just a light wooden gate intended to prevent falls back down the staircase when using the apartment.
The apartment is directly beside & above a crêperie. Apart from the strong cooking smells I could not see any alternative fire escape once in the apartment should there be a fire.
The windows are set very low, open fully, and have no protective guards, which may pose a significant. risk, especially for children.
While the location may be convenient, these factors make the apartment unsuitable for families, older guests, or anyone with mobility issues. I would recommend that potential guests consider these points carefully before booking.

Centrally located to restaurants and the cathedral
Because it’s so close to restaurants there’s incentally a smell from food being cooked nearby

Fantastic location right in the heart of the old town with huge windows looking out onto the street and Notre Dame. Right in the centre of the action. The host Thierry is lovely and very helpful. Parking is free and beds are very comfortable
Very noisy at night but did not bother us and once windows are closed it was very quiet. Very steep stairs to access property just to be aware

The property was well situated in Boulogne and was a comfortable place to spend a night. A good pit-stop after Calais.
The stairs were steep and narrow and although fine for us may be tricky for some.

The central location was excellent. It was nicely decorated and comfortable.
It was a little noisy but that was to be expected as we were above the Main Street.
8.0 / 10.0
The apartment was very clean and just what we needed for a 1 night stay. Perfect location in the old town, really central to everything we needed. Good value for money.
The bar across the road was very lively until 2am. We’ve stayed in Boulogne several times before and I think we were just unlucky with how rowdy it was on the night of our stay.
Once it closed, the area was nice and quiet.

Good communication with host, newly refurbished apartment and spotlessly clean.
Steep and narrow stairs and low ceilings in places, but not unexpected and price reflected this.

The apartment is in a stunning location, entering the walled town and a glorious view of the basilica. The boulangere was right outside so fresh croissants for breakfast, plenty of places to choose to eat.

Excellent location - Lovely town
Lots of steep stairs to the top floor, not a huge issue, it’s part of the character, just had to be a bit careful with our daughter.

Our host Thierry ,was very responsive to all my messages , which really helped knowing when we got to the property there would be no issues . He also reassured us ,when we parked, as we were unsure if we had parked in the correct location.The flat was very clean and tidy and had everything you needed .In fact we were very pleasantly surprised . We didn't use the cooking facilities, as we went out but they were there if you needed them. Including a coffee machine! . The views from the flat were beautiful and you can just see the top of the Belfry . It was lit up on a night and looked gorgeous .This is in the older part of the town and is very pretty . Also so you are aware there is a lovely Patisserie just up the street for your fresh bread , cakes etc . A pleasant stay and I would not hesitate to use this apartment again .
Two things we would say is don't be put off when you open the door and lookup at the stairs . It DOESNOT reflect what the apartment is like . Lets just say first impressions are wrong! we felt this area could do with a lick of paint . Free parking isn't guaranteed .We were lucky to get a spot . However there is a car park not far from the property but you may have to pay.

The caretaker Isabelle was most helpful and a great help with our luggage, excellent
It was difficult to find, when we did, we were immediately struck by the extremely steep stepsup to the second floor ( so steep Gillian had to sit down to start descending) , we tried to find alternative accommodation but had to stick with it.
The problem I believe stems from we had to cancel the original place, we booked as the owner had placed a block on bookings that day, somehow booking.com allowed me to book it, I therefore had to cancel the bfirst one and book this unsuitable one.

plus point of down-town charm: very wonderfully and skill fully restored appartments in the old town.
It was an overnight stay, yet clearly you can stay longer in Boulogne, certainly in this location.
minus point of downtown charm: downtown street noise of late night people (if you are not one yourself, of course)
attention point with old houses: steep stairs, beware for children of less-mobile people.
an unknown source in or near the bathroom (water-boiler? ventilation from restaurant below?) made noise all night long

Such a cozy room, very bright, lovely view of the church outside. We had a boulangerie just in front so we had breakfast there, the room also had a fully equipped kitchen so you can have a meal or prepare sandwiches like we did Everything about it was just perfect we felt like we were at home.
Thierry was also really helpful, very friendly and it was very easy to find the place, get the keys and enjoy our time there.
The only "problem" we had was that other guests kept buzzing on our door bell all afternoon after we'd just arrived and we were trying to relax for a bit, we told them that they had to get in touch with the owner and that the phone number was just by the door, but they kept ringing and ringing, making it very hard to relax! So perhaps try to make it clearer for everyone that there's no reception and that to get the keys they have to get in touch with the owner over the phone.

Amazing location with a direct view to the basilique. Clean and spacious place with everything you need. Very good money for value balance

This holiday apartment is not super big, but it has everything you need. It is designed with care and presents great value for money. There is a free parking space that felt secure enough for us a minute walk away. The greatest plus for us was its location in the old upper part of town, that is super nice to explore (walk on the old walls, check out the huge underground crypte/catacombs). There is a bakery next door and another nice bakery 3-4 minutes away (also a supermarket and nice fruits and vegs store at same distance).
