We were booked into this hotel via my husband's company. I popped onto Trip Advisor and read all the reviews, so had a great deal of trepidation about it. We couldn't have been more pleased. The location is fabulous with easy access to historical parts of town; in between both rivers; shopping district. Our room was on the 3rd floor,... More

My empolyer uses this hotel for visitors to their plant outside Lyon. More than adequate altough not outstanding.Room quality is fine. Breakfast is very basic with juice and breads. I would investigate other options in similar price range for future visits. More

I booked this hotel in April. I had repeated problems with them having input my credit card incorrectly. Finally got that resolved in mid May and had confirmed reservation. When I arrived, they had cancelled they reservation the day before. They claimed the card information would not process. Of course, when I went down the road to The Carlton, everything... More

My choice to stay in this hotel was based on the photos including of the rooms.While the rooms included on their site may exist, I was initially taken to a closet sized room (no chair or table). With work to do, I managed to get another room with a small child sized chair and table, though no electrical outlet, requiring... More

Globe & Cecil is truly a gem of a Hotel. Clean, spacious, well lighted, large rooms, friendly staff, speak English, breakfast included. We found this Hotel pulling our suitcases down a street in the rain at 9:00PM after being surprised at what (my fault) turned out to be not what we expected at another Hotel. (checked out) Upon arriving in... More

My husband and I stayed at Globe et Cecil for two nights. I was not impressed with the hotel although the location is excellent. We were first placed in a room facing the street. There was no ventilation except to open the window. We requested a move to the back and the person at the desk was somewhat defensive, saying... More

The staff may be nice, but watch out for the management. When you give your credit card details to confirm your reservation, they immediately help themselves to a 'deposit.' Deposits are rarely required by European hotels, but get this - the Globe et Cecil takes not 10%, not 20%, but ONE HUNDRED PERCENT of the room price. Some deposit! If... More

A very nice hotel in a very convenient location. Staff extremely courteous and helpful. Our rooms faced the street but the noise was not a problem at night (even though it can get pretty noisy during the day). Of course it is a relatively expensive hotel (we contacted the hotel directly and paid 130 euros for a single and 160... More
