“good central location for exploring LYON by foot”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 February 2012

With 5 star hotel training, this hotel given price was reasonable and in good location. Room was adequate, decor not to my taste, bathroom fine and came with toiletries, bathrobes and slippers. The reception and breakfast staff very helpful and pleasant. Breakfast was fine and set us up for the day ahead. room could have been a bit cleaner on arrival as bin had not been emptied. room lacked fridge, better pillows and proper drinking glasses ... As plastic beakers were provided. Overall though it was fine, warm and comfortable.

Room Tip: Local carrefour round the corner for odds and ends and lots of cafes if you dont have breakfast incl...

“WOW what a find”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 January 2012

We usually stay in 5 star establishments,however due to the location & trip advisor faith fulls say so,we gave it a go!
What a pleasant surprise, very helpful English speaking staff,quirky Bedroom & bizarre pool!
Located between the 2 rivers & access to everything you could need.
If you love food you must do the Halle de lyon Paul Bocuse,the ballotta ham & a small coffee opposite the Seve patisserie are a must,your tastebuds go mental for 2 hours afterwoods.
Stick to the Bouchons, le Musee was superb,this is coming from 2 Chef lecturers who can now cross this trip off our bucket list. Enjoy

Room Tip: Steer clear of the rooms ending in 01 as they are opposite the lift, which would drive you mad. we...

We recently stayed here whilst passing through Lyon and we really pleasantly surprised. This is a great little hotel, lovely rooms, clean and beautifully decorated. The pool looked nice, next time I'll bring my shorts!!!

“good stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 January 2012
2
people found this review helpful

We stayed in superior rooms which can substitute rooms in 4 star hotel. The hotel is located close to the metro station and main Lyon’s attractions. The hotel has a friendly staff. A small pool allow you to color you stay.
But not everything was so good. We didn’t like thin walls and moderate breakfast. One small lift is not always sufficient for the whole hotel. A smell of an old hotel follows you in the rooms.
So make your choice!

“Good location, but a bit pricey”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 December 2011
4
people found this review helpful

This hotel has a great location in the heart of the city and gives you a great Lyonais experience. The decor is slightly eccentric but characterful and it was a comfortable stay.
Staff were friendly and the bar had a nice (if quiet) atmosphere.

Negatives:
The door to our room was 3 feet from the elevator and the noise of people using and waiting for the elevator was quite intrusive. The room was pretty small for the price we paid, and the reason for us to be in the city was the Beaujolais Nouveau festivities which the hotel staff knew nothing about despite it being a big event in the city.
