Excellent location right in the centre of town and walking distance to everything. Very cheap, but the rooms were still clean and comfortable. Breakfast was good. Cedric and the other staff were friendly and helpful. I stayed in a room on the first floor that had a very nice view onto the old cathedral next door. The first 2 nights... More

For some, location is everything; for others, affordability is crucial. This hotel serves both these requirements admirably. For us, though, it is the kindness, the hospitality of the staff that is formost, and Cederic surpassed our hopes. The directions and suggestions he proposed were flawless. When we asked about internet cafes, he offered the use of his own laptop. When... More

It's not the Hilton but the rooms are clean and the owner is a friendly helpful person. The rooms can be a bit hit and miss. On our first stay, we had an older room that unfortunately had been smoked in. It wasn't enough to deter us from coming back a second time a few weeks later on our way... More

We really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Boulevardier. All of Lyon is reachable by foot from the hotel, with the Hotel de Ville and Musée des Beaux Arts particularly close. There are nice restaurants and bars in the surrounding streets too. The hotel itself is also a jazz bar/restaurant which looked great but was unfortunately closed while we were there.... More

Would thoroughly recommend this hotel, to anyone looking for a pit stop hotel in a beautiful city! We were welcomed by friendly staff who were very happy to help! Fantastic location, walking distance to Place Bellecour, the fine arts museum and a handful of other sites! We had a triple room with an en suite and even had our own... More

The hotel is very well located in the old city, walking distance to most sights, & easily accessible by public transport to others. The room was clean. Our room looked across the road to the Church, which was a really interesting & different view to have. The bathroom was quite small, & the shower very small- almost unmanageably small! They... More

We stayed at Hotel Le Boulevardier for 2 nights in March 2009. The Good: It was very well located in the city of Lyon, just besides the Church of St Nizier. Our room has a view of the gargoyles of the church. The room (Twin room with attached shower & WC) is very spacious. There is even a van Gogh... More

Well...bedbugs. Our first night was spent being bitten by these suckers, though they didn't seem too numerous and never bothered us again after that first night, as they changed our room for us. There are LOTS of stairs and floors, with few rooms on each floor. The "hotel" part of Le Boulevardier has a bit of a ratty interior, but... More
