So much about the hotel is pleasant and charming that I regret giving it a low rating because of street noise, which makes it impossible to sleep without ear plugs. The square on which the hotel is located (Place Saint Paul) is a major magnet for Lyonnais youth, who pour from surrounding schools in late afternoon, congregate outside the various... more

My wife and I stayed at the College Hotel for two nights in August 2009 as part of an Inter-Rail trip through Belgium, Luxembourg and France. We booked directly with the hotel as we found this to be the most cost effective way. This hotel is good but for what you get it seemed to be pretty pricey. In saying... more

We found College hotel so easy. The location is central and we enjoyed walking epecially going up to the top where the Basilica is located. Everything is within walking distance. We saw the city on foot..The staff was very helpful and friendly. Our bedroom is on the 7th floor ,corner room and with a view of the whole city ,... more

Zero complaints. I agree with all the positive comments of other reviewers. And the price was good too!. Spend about 40-50 nights a year in hotels of all sorts and this one is very near the top. more

Take sunglasses - the rooms are WHITE. Totally white! The beds are comfortable, rooms have air-conditioning ( and if you're at the front, facing the bars over the road, you'll not be opening the windows..... ) and the bathrooms are immaculate - although the shower with no cubicle or curtain might not be to everyone's taste. The service is superb;... more

Before I left on vacation, I had read about the College Hotel on TripAdvisor but did not book it because I wasn't sure what day I would arrive in Lyon. When I arrived in they city, I walked into the hotel and was able to get a room. All they had left were their more deluxe rooms and I believe... more

We stayed 5 nights at the charming College Hotel in October 2008. I agree with all the other positive comments, and also had the pleasure of Room 22 with its private terrace. At first I was also disappointed with the hand-held shower because I have back problems and it is hard for me to sit or squat in the tub.... more

We agree with nearly all of the reviews written thus far. The hotel is a great find and -- for a city in France -- quite a bargain. No, it's not cheap, but try to find this sort of value for the money in Lyon and you'll look for a long, long time. The rooms are spotlessly clean and comfortable.... more
