We were warmly greeted. We arrived early in the morning and the room was not ready yet. The lady behind the desk stored our luggage in a back closet so that we could go see Paris and did not have to wait. We were very satisfied.

We had room 34 which was great. The hotel is located a block away from Rue de Rivoli so you have all the convenience of being close to a lot of the sights without the noise. The staff was helpful and our room was clean. There are many cafes and restaurants in the area that are superb. Would definitely stay there again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this charming renovated hotel. We were pleasantly surprised with the room size - quite spacious by European standards. Hotel staff were extremely helpful and their grasp of the English language was much appreciated. The location was brilliant, close to Louvre, Concorde and metro. Overall a very pleasant stay and would recommend highly.

Beautiful hotel, friendly and helpful staff. location could not be more perfect. highly recommend

The Hotel is situated in an ideal location, 2 minutes from the nearest Metro station and walking distance to Saint Germain du Pres for Restaurants and Cafes. The Hotel staff are very helpful and the Hotel is beautifully furnished with antiques, but very comfortable. I would definitely stay there again.

The staff at the hotel were excellent. Nothing was too much effort. Very helpful and friendly. The coffee was superb! The rooms were romantic and clean. The barman was a jovial chap who kept us entertained. Location was perfect. Quiet but very central. Our stay in Paris (honeymoon) will always be very special and we left with fond memories. Thank you to all at Duc de Saint Simon Hotel.

We continue to return to this excellent hotel, year after year, for the wonderful service and truly French atmosphere it offers, together with the caring attention that makes us feel so welcome each time we visit. A big 'thank you' to Richard and the staff for another wonderful stay! Margaret B. Sydney. AUSTRALIA

My only disappointment was in the Heart of Paris Hotel website activities. You promoted a sightseeing cruise to be provided via email and never delivered upon your commitment. The hotel we stayed in had a great atmosphere with a great location. Note : On 07/21/2010 , an answer to this review was made by Heart of Paris Hotels indicating that the voucher for sightseeing cruise was sent on due time to the e-mail address given by the guest. It is a pity the guest did not advise quickly Heart of Paris Hotels as the voucher can be sent on demand if necessary. Hundreds customers enjoyed this sightseeing cruise offered during summer.

Wonderful location in the heart of the Left Bank. It is a nice, quiet hotel with charming ambience. The location is fantastic: The cafe life just outside the door. We also found the location convenient because it is very close to the metro, which makes exploring Paris quite convenient; we also found that the proximity of the metro made it easy for us to get to and from Charles de Gaulle airport. The staff was friendly, professional and very helpful. Be prepared for rooms smaller than the typical American hotel. We'd gladly return to this wonderful little hotel next time we go to Paris.
