Very pleased with Hotel du Simplon.great value for the cost. Spotlessly clean throughout.. Excellent French breakfast. Beautiful heritage feel in both the lounge and breakfast room.

Fantastic location, near the river and walkable from the station. Staff were lovely, but some of the communal areas needed some TLC. The carpet from 1st floor to reception was threadbare, for example. Breakfast was nice in a quirky little setting. Would definitely stay again. 👍

A small boutique hotel. Comfortable bed, usb ports beside beds, good Wi-Fi and an excellent front staff. Lots of restaurants a couple of blocks away. We didn’t spent much time in the small room. It did have everything you need for a good nights sleep.

The hotel is clean. The location is perfect, walking distance to all touristic attractions. The air condition works so loudly and the room is really smaller than photos.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

Hotel is well located with quiet and clean rooms and very friendly staff. I was in a double room and it was small but comfortable for one. I think the smaller room would have been a struggle. Breakfast was good. Only downside was that the mattress was quite lumpy. Overall, a solid 3 star hotel.

Loved the vibe-very clean but not fussy, eco but not militant, classy but not over the top. My room was efficient and the bed was so comfortable. The breakfast was copious and delicious.
