Excellent!
Pros:

All good, absolutely spotless.

Cons:

The ONLY inconvenience was having to go downstairs in the apartment during the night to the bathroom.

The perfect way to celebrate my wifes birthday From the beautiful apartment and Fantastic restaurant
Pros:

I'm genuinely torn about writing this review... because the last thing I want is for everyone to discover Quite Simply French and make it impossible for us to book again!

But they deserve every bit of praise.

We stayed in the apartment in June for a romantic birthday celebration, and it was, without question, the most incredible place we've ever stayed. From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel less like guests and more like old friends. The whole team are warm, welcoming, and seem determined to give 110% to make your stay unforgettable.

The apartment is stunning beautifully finished, immaculately clean, and so comfortable that we seriously considered "accidentally" missing checkout.

Then there's the restaurant... wow. Every course was exceptional, the wine pairings were absolutely spot on, and the atmosphere struck that perfect balance between relaxed and special. It made for an unforgettable birthday evening.

It's rare to find somewhere that gets absolutely everything right accommodation, food, wine, service, and genuine hospitality but Quite Simply French manages it effortlessly.

So, against my better judgement, I'm sharing our secret. Just do me one favour... leave a table and the apartment free for us next time!

Quite simply... perfect.

Cons:

Having to leave! We genuinely struggled to find a single fault. If I'm being really picky, the only downside is that everyone will read reviews like this and it'll be even harder for us to book the apartment next time!

A great location. A very hot room. Good facilities.
Pros:

Location

Cons:

The heating system was impossible to control . I could not get the room temperature below 26 degrees which made for an unpleasant experience . The man showing me the room was rushed and didn’t really explain how the system worked.

Fabulous place, great food and lovely staff! Definitely recommend.
Pros:

The room was absolutely stunning and comfortable. We got an upgrade to the Gillow room, spacious and had a free standing bath as well as a comfortable bed.
There’s a highly rated restaurant below overlooking the river, definitely request for a riverside view.
The staff were friendly and helpful.
Short walk to the centre.

Cons:

Nothing worth noting.
