Very nice upscale hotel with 24hr desk and doorman. Beautiful, modern ambience, and spectacular views. Nice bar and restaurant but the menu was very pricey because of the star chef. There is a street with tons of great little restaurants in walking distance along the square nearby. There is no need for a car here, everything is walking distance and... More

Stayed here in September 2010. Having had a disasterous trip down France, and our other accomodation falling through. They were a godsend. The staff were incredibly helpful and did everything they could to help us. We were given a suite, and it was very luxurious. The room service was great. The porter brought all our luggage, which was a lot... More

It is supposedly one of the only 5 star hotels in Lyon, but I do not think it deserves them. Comfort is OK and as often in Sofitel, beds are very comfy, but that's the only thing that stands out. Plus there was no bathtub in my room (and I checked the floor map, it was not smaller than other... More

Madame, Monsieur, Thank you for taking the time to tell us about your experience at the Sofitel Lyon Bellecour. When we renovated some of our rooms, we wanted our bathrooms to be modern, so we preferred Italian showers. We still have bathtubs in our traditional rooms, so if we have the chance to welcome you again in Lyon, do not... More

The hotel is wonderfully well located. It jars in interesting ways as a late 20th century building in amongst earlier buildings. The bar on the top floor has a delightful view, it is a bit too velvety for my taste, but nice nonetheless and worth a visit, although the service was tardy to say the least on the Sunday evening...

Room: I stayed in the junior suite which was really spacious. The style of the room looked kind of tired, but the bathrooms look new and have a very elegant style in dark tones. The room was full of amenities. The bed is super comfortable and so are the thick bathrobes. A great plus is that the (non-alcoholic) minibar comes... More

Probably everything you might expect of an expensive 5 star hotel. Good service, excellent location, plush interiors. Free mini bar (no alcohol) was a nice touch However from our experience we found it a bit expensive for what it was. Would only stay here again if we got a better deal, but that was its only fault really. More

The Sofitel was the perfect stay. The check-in was super efficient and helpful. Our room, which overlooked the river, was ample in size, bathroom immaculate, and the renowned Sofitel bed was greatly appreciated, after weary days of walking the city. I might add that the complimentary biscuits in our room (baked in-house) were amazing! We chose “Le Silk” brassiere for... More

Nice hotel, nice view of the river, it is a very clean place and the service is nothing to complain about. Clean comfortable beds a nice size bathroom and Hermes toiletries. What I loved the most about this hotel aside from the amenities, was the location. It is a few blocks from Vieux Lyon, only a couple blocks from the... More

Been to Sofitel Lyon on a 1 night stay to visit the Burgundy area. The Hotel is very well localized, and up to the Sofitel standarts. Free wifi internet was a plus, since it was not in the hotel portfolio. Teh hotel itself seems to be recently reformed. Confort is first class and tehre are all the small luxury to... More
