A lovely find in a very convenient location, although surrounded by designer boutiques, there's heaps of other shopping that is easily accessible. Also, about 10 minutes walk across the river to the old city, which is extraordinary. Just up the road from Place Bellecour, where you'll find the Tourism Office where you get loads of information about Lyon, tours etc... More

Summary A very friendly although slightly quirky, small hotel. Would happily stay here again as it is a find, offering great value, but not glamour! Plusses Friendly very helpful staff, who all speak excellent English. Great location in Lyon’s classy shopping area – Cartier is down the street and all the big name labels are close by. Beware though –... More

Emile was at the desk when I checked in. She was very helpful, courteous and welcoming. It was a great visit to Hotel des Celestins and Emile certainly made me feel at... More

I stayed 4 nights and recommend it. The bed was wonderfully comfortable and the room was quiet. The staff were delightful - friendly and helpful, offering advice and tips. The location is just minutes from the funicular to the Basilica and Vieux Lyon in one direction and Place Bellecour (post office and SNCF office nearby) in the other. Rue Mercier... More

The location and people are great, they know their city and made great recommendations for eating and sightseeing. Like most big city hotels in this price range, the rooms are small but the breakfast was surprisingly large for France, rolls,eggs, yogurt, etc. The parking location and price was great but be sure to reserve.
