Rooms are large, modern and clean. Well located within walking distance of everywhere we wanted o go. As with all Accor group hotels I have stayed in, the bed was large and very comfortable. Superb welcome from the front desk staff who were happy to help with all inquiries. Great value for money, will definitely come back.

Trafalger Tours booked our stay and made check in quick and painless. The staff was very helpfull and the rooms were roomy and very modern for European standards. You... More

Even though I wasnt informed by anyone that I couldnt make a reservation by not being the owner of the card, the hotel charged the card and later wanted 100 extra euros to make the rate flexible, as...

My partner and I spent three nights at this hotel recently and were happy with most aspects of our stay. The staff were friendly, the room fine, the breakfast varied. The hotel is in walking distance of the old town and other tourist hot spots. If you travel by car, like we did, and want to use the parking facilities... More

This hotel is in a great location to get anywhere you need to in this fantastic city. I was in Lyon on business and arrived at the hotel late in the evening minus my luggage which was still in London. The staff couldn't have been more helpful - providing a few bits of a wash kit to get me through... More

Took the Privilege Double Room, was big and comfortable, mini-bar and espresso coffee machine (with 3 capsules) were included in the room, and updated everyday. Good service, and they speak good English (not a typical thing for French :-P )... Overall, very good and worth the money!

Stayed there for a night with my mother while travelling around France and I must tell you that getting a room with 2 huge beds for just 150 euros was very nice. The hotel looks brand new and very clean, about a 10 minute walk from the historical city centre. Haven't visited the hotel restaurant, but went for breakfast there... More
