I got out of the train station late at night & had to leave the next morning at 7am. I wanted convenience. I saw a neon light advertising 52 Euro weekend rates. Came into hotel and saw posting for 80Euros. I'd spent about half that in 2 star hotels in Lyon & the surrounding area that week, but figured I'd... More

We arrived by train to Lyon Part Dieu station, and it could not have been easier to find the hotel. The location was great for access to the metro for sightseeing, as well as the large mall across the street. There were a few restaurants in the square, as well as in the mall. A short walk to Les Halles... More

I stayed in three different hotels at similar price or quality standards during my time in Paris and Lyon. This hotel room was noisy to the point of not being able to sleep (lift workings, air conditioning making high pitched noises of metal on metal and another fan wording intermittently). No way should this be in the top 7 hotels... More

I've never before encountered a hotel where a) the aircon temperature can only be changed by reception, rather than on the panel in the room and b) it is not possible to get the aircon lower than 21.6C. Given that this hotel overlooks Lyon Part Dieu station, you'd hope you could cool your room in a way that kept the... More

We stayed at Hotel Athena for two nights. We were travelling with a lot of luggage so finding a place close to the train station was important. This definitely fits that requirement, the hotel is right in front of you when you step out of the station, very easy to find. However we were pretty disappointed once we checked in.... More

Hotel 50m from the train station and the bus station... 15mins walk to the centre of lyon 24h desk, perfect Parking 9€ a night Really good price (45€) bed and bedroom quite small, but clean had 2 small bath towel..... not really good for my hair's girl friend... More

Stayed overnight here and was perfect due to the hotel being right next to the train station and the shopping mall/supermarket just across the road. The staff were absolutely lovely and very helpful. The room was clean and the bed comfortable but the bathroom was very dated and you had to manouevre yourself in the bath/shower with a hand held... More

the hotel is very basic- cheap towels and paint falling off in the bathroom. All of this I would leave go as the location is very good in that it is near a shopping centre and train station; and it is a 2 star so I didnt expect much. however the staff WERE SO RUDE AND UNHELPFUL! Anything i asked... More

This hotel was okay -- my room was basic but seemed very clean. Bathroom was clean and in good order. As you'd expect at this price-point, not very exciting, but did the job. The location (right next to Part Dieu train station/shopping centre) was very convenient. Despite the central location, my room was also nice and quiet. The staff seemed... More
