This hotel is in a great location. Parking is tough but at least there is an unloading zone to drop off your luggage. Bed was comfortable. Our main complaint was NO hot water. Showers were extremely tough in cold water.

Disliked: Staff & service
The hotel is in a very good location — within walking distance to everywhere. The rooms are clean and comfortable. Breakfast is excellent. However, the hotel staff are rude and aggressive. When I asked the bartender for a paper cup to drink water from the bar, he started yelling at me angrily. I found it inappropriate for such rude staff to work at a hotel where everything else is so good.

Perfect location, service & staff. Excellent breakfast. The only thing that wasn’t perfect was the bath shower. The partial shower door leaked all over the floor. Not a good setup.

We are a senior couple visiting Lyon for the first time. The hotel is well located for walking to Lyon old town, breakfast is good and the staff helpful. The room is very small and there is hardly any space for luggage. The room ventilation is inadequate and we can sometimes smell cigarette smoking.

Room was nice, location is very central but quite. There was restauration of parts of hotel while I was there, so very limited common area, hotel was very expensive, in regard that there were no facilities.
