Overall the Hotel du Simplon is charming, comfortable and quiet. However, it was missing a few of the little touches that one usually expects with a hotel - coffee & tea in the rooms, ditto for glasses, tissues etc. I'd stay again, but I'd probably look at other options first.

Room was clean and conformable. A little bit small. Area is good and many services around. Parking is 2 blocks away, and, although t is not distant, it demands to drive back to hotel to return the key. Bathroom is outdated, and the shower is at wrist level (not above the head).

Very charming with excellent views
Very charming hotel, with a nod to the classic hospitality of Italy in the 50’s and 60’s. Get the fountain view for sure, and have breakfast upstairs on the terrace. The staff was great, helpful and informative.
