Beautiful facilities, restaurant and staff
Gorgeous 2 story room but with limited view which we nonetheless enjoyed. Only drawback was bathroom was down curving stairs. All employees friendly, helpful and gracious!

One of the very best in every way.
This Hotel is amazing.
It has everything you want in a very good Hotel. It also deserves the 5 Star rating.
For so many reasons.
I cannot pick one thing wrong.
The Staff go out of their way to look after everyone, in fact over and beyond for their clients. I spend 3 quarters of the year spending most of my time in 5 star hotels and this one for service from every staff is amazing all the time.
This a Hotel I will always keep coming back.
I will always stay at this hotel when I’m in Lyon,
The hotel is on the hill but the view is to die for.
It’s so close to everything.
I can only say this don’t stay anywhere else,

Perfect. Staff and hotel are immaculate. Rooms were perfect. Pool area has stunning views across the city. Food was superb, I’ve no suggestions other than an elevator into the old town😊 (on serious note, if you struggle to walk up or down steps you’ll need to get transport to and from hotel)

Absolutely wonderful. The Hotel is gorgeous with wonderful views overlooking Lyon and the Alps in the distance. Our room was large, beautifully appointed, and very comfortable. The terrace is a great option for a meal, snacks or drinks. The staff is top notch. Would absolutely recommend.

Highly recommend
Amazing hotel. Staff is exceptional. Our room had a beautify view of Lyon and the view from the pool was equally stunning. Spacious room and bathroom. Be aware the hotel is near the top of the hill so it is quite a climb. If you are elderly or not ambulatory this may not be the best choice.
