This hotel suffered a little bit because of its location. The building is quite nice and the rooms are OK. The outlook directly over the railway yards is not very pretty. The outlook towards the old town is quite pretty however. The hotel was good value. If I was returning to Lyon, however, I would stay closer to the old... more

I stayed at the Grand Mercure for one night in june 2007. I initially had intended to stay at another Mercure property, but since I reserved quite late, there was no other choice, and for a single night I didn't care much anyway.

We arrived in Lyon at the other train station and took a taxi (12 euros) to this hotel. We were impressed the moment we pulled up. I... more

We booked this hotel through the Mercure reservations web site. It is an old style hotel with period style fittings and furnishings, and large rooms with high ceilings, but it is all a bit tired and slightly run down. Our room on 2nd floor was comfortable, spacious and quiet, even though it looked out on to the railway station. The... more
