We (married couple, 50+) stayed 2 nights in mid-May. Residence met all our expectations and exceeded some others, particularly the spaciousness of our room at this price. Great location at the epicenter of what we felt were 3 separate central Lyons, each with a distinct feel but all within walking distance-- well, walking distance to the funicular that gets you... more

Nice size rooms in convenient location. Bathroom can be closed off from room for privacy. Great value for the money. Near train station & metro. more

The hotel is exactly what you would expect from a three star hotel. Rooms are clean, front desk is helpful (also in English) and location is very good for Lyon sight seeing. Airport shuttle bus leaves from Gare de Perrache a couple of blocks south from the hotel. Even though our corner room was on the first floor we weren't... more

La Residence is a well-kept, well-located hotel. While there's nothing extraordinary about it, there's nothing terrible to be said, and some nice perks include telephone and TV in room, as well as a location on a main pedestrian artery convenient for sightseeing. Also, free Internet access is available in the lobby. more

We stayed there for one night, in a nice clean room. There's not much to say, just that it's in the city center, near everything. The frontdesk should be more helpful and kind. more

After reading the reveiws on trip advisor we booked the hotel for 2 nights. The location is perfect. The hotel is a very good 3 star hotel. It should be remembered that this is 3 stars. We got exactly what we expected-a clean, well run hotel, close to the train station, shopping, the old city, and many restaurants. Lyon is... more

My little room was nice and I especially loved the bath/shower. The lobby is not too flash--dark leather sofas...so 1988! But the internet was good, and free. The main problem with Residence is the location--it is right on the main pedestrian street near clubs. I heard drunk people screaming all night, and kids congregating just below at all other times. more

I stayed at La Residence for one night in August pre-river cruise and had no problems. I was on the fourth floor and yes, the elevator was a little slow, but certainly not a big deal. My single room was quite small (think cruise ship) but the room and bath were very clean and I had a quiet, restful night.... more

I was quite baffled as to why this hotel is rated so highly. It is centrally located but the rooms are shabby, the air conditioning barely works and the walls are paper thin. While the bathroom had been nicely renovated, the rest of the room looked like a cheap 50's motel with a flat screen TV. Our room was on... more
