My wife and I went for 2 nights and had an excellent experience. The staff were very kind and helpful. The room was clean and very comfortable bed. It was minutes away from the train station Lyon Perrache, 10 min from the confluence and 40min walk to Old Lyon. Would definitely recommend.

Overall very good. Short walk to metro and tram stations. Friendly staff. A friend traveling with us left her iPad in her room after checkout. The staff retrieved it and we were able to get it a couple of hours later.

If too big, you won’t fit!
Nice hotel but toilet room excessively small. You have to (proceed) with your knees touching the door. The washroom is the size or smaller than on a plain. Not good at all!!!!

Overall very good but the staff didn't show us the way to our room like they said they would and so we got lost (we could've never guessed the right way to our room as first-time guests). The bin in our bathroom was also not replaced on one of the days and was left disassembled. I'm pretty sure the door to our terrace was also open the entire time we were there as we couldn't figure out how to lock it properly. Other than that, very pleasant, spacious, light, and comfortable room in a good location.

Actual condition of room was very different from how it was advertised on the website. Balcony was very dusty with fallen leaves all over. Bedsheet was also found with stains. Checked out an hour after checking in. Staff service was great though, understanding and patient.

This property is located right near a train and bus station with easy access to Vieux Lyon (old Lyon), there is a lot of restaurants and shops around the hotel as well. The hotel breakfast was also excellent. I would highly recommend this hotel if you’re visiting Lyon.

The property was not anything like in the photos. It was run down and old. You literally had to walk outside to another building to go to your room and neither the front entrance or the additional building had any security - anyone could just walk in. They should have to use a key to gain access. The staff at the font desk was wonderful.
