I came back to 'Le Phenix' after several years, and I was very pleased to see that the hotel is still the nice cosy hotel I knew in Lyon. Ideally located on the Saone banks, you can just walk to the 'Vieux Lyon' and enjoy the famous 'Bouchon' and walk through the Italian style old city, discovering the 'Traboules' way... More

I have just spent four nights at this hotel travelling alone. I was in a double room (purely because I love a big bed) and it felt like a small apartment rather than a hotel room! The sitting area was massive and the bathroom was completely renovated - the spa bath was AWESOME after a long day of sightseeing. The... More

We chose this hotel thanks to the great reviews on Trip Advisor. The location is perfect in the old town near restaurants, bars and a very nice pub! But the room was very small and the hotel was being redecorated (they were ripping up carpet the second day). Admittedly we went in February which is not tourist season. More disappointing:... More

We were recommended to beautiful Lyon and this hotel by my French friend Manny. It was a fantastic hotel, a good price and right in the Old town of Lyon. We booked online and had a large room with an internal view so it was quiet and comfortable. We had a simple picnic breakfast in our room. Room was nicely... More

I know its a bit late but just wanted to share that this was a very nice place to stay. We reserved one night in early August based on tripadvisor recommendations. And we liked it so much that we reserved for another night later in the month when we were leaving. It is not cheap but reasonable, and using a... More

Stayed here two nights prior to Christmas. Le Phenix has a great location on the river Saone and is handy to Vieux Lyon as well as the Gallo-Roman sites up the hill. A tip - if self-driving from the airport try to reach the hotel from the south of Lyon on the west side of the Saone - we (wrongly)... More

Stayed here for 1 night during the Fete des Lumieres. Hotel is conveniently located in Vieux Lyon, along the banks of the river Saone. The hotel was comfortable, I think our room had been recently renovated - bathroom was brand spanking new. Room included tea and coffee making facilities which were welcomed following a day exploring in the cold. Staff... More

We stayed here in December 2012. Phenix is located in Vieux, on the west side of the La Saone. Across the La Saone, Croix Rousse is to the north and Presqu'ile to the south. The staff was very friendly and spoke understandable English. Lyon is a small city that can be explored over a weekend. A location like Phenix makes... More

This hotel was good value and close to public transport which is cheap for all day ticket. The walk in the old city on both sides of the Soane River was excellent and would recommend the hotel for the comfort, location and service. English speaking staff members assisted when needed. We stayed for 3 nights prior to doing a river... More
