My wife and son spent Christmas in Paris and Simon’s place was the perfect home base. The location is amazing because you can access either side of the Siene with equal ease. The view of Notre Dame is spectacular and makes for magical mornings while having tea or coffee and planning your day. An added bonus is staying on the Île-de-France because it is your own private neighborhood with small shops and friendly people. Simon was an excellent host who made checking in and out very easy.
