This hotel was reeeaally nice. The rooms are small but designed very, very well. The breakfast (which I think we paid extra for, but it wasn't much extra) was also lovely, with lots of choices of food. Also, the brewery next door is a cool place to visit!

Hotel recently renewed, it's located very close to the Perrache station which was very useful for us since we got to Lyon by train. At the same time the city centre can be reached within a few minutes walk using the underpass in front of the hotel that leads to Place Carnot. Our room was clean and tidy, everything was... More

After spending a few days in Paris we arrived in Lyon and because of tight budget we booked the Hotel Central. It was a little bit difficult to find it at first. The hotel is situtated 1 minute away from the Perrache railway station, just 10 minutes away from the great avenues, antique and art shops and the major squares.... More

We stayed here in Mid December 2012. The hotel was close to the station which is not the best area in Lyon but good if you're travelling by train. It was a short 5 min walk into town. The hotel itself was fantastic. The staff were super friendly and helpful. We needed a room for 4 as we were travelling... More

Good location, side by side to the famous Georges Brasserie. The family suite was perfect for a family (2 spared rooms, with the bathroom on the middle), big and modern room. Nice staff and a essential breakfast (kids pay half price). You could walk to the center area, it’s a long walk (40 min), but you can enjoy the sightseeing... More

This was a decent hotel, but was under construction when my mother and I stayed there in late October 2012. It's a small hotel but the room was a decent size. The bathroom was a nightmare. It smelled bad and the shower and toilet were in the same room but not separated by anything, so the water ran out and... More

For those of you looking at the maps of Lille, don't be fooled by the fact that this place is close to Gare Perrache - this is not the main train station in and out of town, that honour goes to Gare Part Dieu. However, it's a short ride by taxi or tram to this Hotel. And it's a lovely... More

The Central Hotel is in a fab location as it's near one of the main train/tram stations that accesses the entire city, so it was easy to get around. The hotel was covered in scaffolding but this made no difference to us as we didn't book it for a nice view! We were given room 001 on the ground floor... More
