We stayed just one night at the Hotel Central in Lyon. We booked online a double room at a rate of Eur 59. We had no problem finding it as it is just behind the Perrache station. The reception area was comprised of a seating area which is used for serving breakfast in the morning, or in fact lounging in... More

The Central Hotel is a "boutique hotel" located close to Lyon Perrache station and, unfortunately, the hideous and confusing miasma of additions tacked onto it in recent decades. On the plus side, it is also just two doors away from the legendary Brasserie Georges, a Lyon classic. Double rooms are reasonably spacious, but single rooms are small. Decor is very... More

The rooms are tiny and cold. The bathroom is ok and clean. Really basic breakfast, very helpful receptionists. The night shift guy was probably the rudest receptionist I ever met. More

I was pleasantly surprised by this 2 star hotel. Excellent value for money. I booked this hotel for one night as my friend was visiting from Jamaica. We absolutely loved it! The staff was very helpful and professional, they gave us some good ideas of places to visit in Lyon and where to have a good dinner. Our room was... More

It was my own fault that I booked 3 nights at a hotel at Perrache railway station, when I really wanted Part Dieu station. The good; the whole place was very fresh and modern looking, with a lot of colour. The room clean, and sparking. The bathroom similarly up to date. The wifi worked fine. The staff friendly and helpful..except... More

We really enjoyed staying at the Hotel Central. The room was spacious, the bathroom was nice and clean, and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Plus, they offer an English breakfast for a reasonable price. We chose the hotel because of its close proximity to the train station, and we were also within walking distance of many things in...

We only stayed one night but we were very pleased with the experience. Room was a good size, bathroom first rate and the young lady at the front desk for check in was top notch as was the room clerk on duty in the morning. Very helpful. As well, this might be one of the only hotel breakfasts that was... More

Nothing flash but very close to transport and central city, and very helpful staff (eg storing our food goodies in the refrigerator, supplying a kettle to make cups of tea). A bit hard to find if you take the wrong turn from the station. More

The hotel is conveniently located and relatively inexpensive, the rooms are quiet and clean (though extremely small), the breakfasts are excellent, and we found the staff to be polite and friendly. However I could not say they were helpful. They were unable to assist with any of the problems I encountered, specifically: 1) room being too cold because of a... More
