This was the prefect stop to rest for our long France trip. The hotel was way fancier than what we expected. Perfect location! It also had a parking garage which was needed for our trip.

Location was perfect for an overnight stay before a cruise. Beds were extremely comfortable. Rooms could use an update which they are working on. Would stay again.

Very nice decor in the hotel and staff was very friendly and professional. Conveniently located close to Bellcour plaza with lots of restaurants close by.
Area right next to the hotel was not as well lit as the rest of town so it was a little iffy, but overall no negative interactions.

The inside of the building is a bit outdated, but it is kept very clean. Staff are extremely helpful and polite. I loved the gym facility and steam sauna! The room was small, but it had everything I needed to stay for 4 days. The hotel location is superb, especially if you enjoy walking. 10/10, I would come back!

We had just finished a river cruise and needed a hotel for 2 nights before flying home. We arrived around noon and were able to check in early. The location makes for easy walk to get around the old city of Lyon. So much to see and do in the area. Our double classic room (queen bed) was perfect for our needs. Hallways could use some updating. The 8th floor bar has spectular city/river night time views but is “tres” pricey.
