Very good hotel, very clean. For the money Highly recommended.

The staff at reception are very helpful, in fact couldn't do enough for me. All of them speak good English, although quite rightly they appreciate any attempt at French. No matter how feeble, lol.
However there is a bearded guy there in the mornings (early) who is an arse. Down right rude and obviously hates the English. Don't let him put you off though, he's not there much. I think he works the night shift.

PS I'm going back in March

1/1 found this review helpful

A group of friend stayed in this hotel in Lyon. The hotel is very close to one of Lyon main train stations and close to the city center. The only bad point about the location is that you have to cross the train station to get to the shopping and restaurant area, and at night is not too nice. Especially if you are a girl or group of girls traveling alone.
The hotel itself was really good. Nice and comfortable rooms, with sofa chairs and great plasma TV. The bathroom was good and with a nice tub. The room was very clean and the staff very helpful in everything: fixing the phone, giving directions....
The tram line stops in front of the hotel, so very good for the transport network of Lyon. It takes you around 45 minutes to get to the Congress Centre in the Cite Internacionale by tram.
It has free parking, but only few places, so get there really early.
It is also of very easy access from the motorway.

Business-type hotel with nothing special to brag about. Clean, quiet, near train station without a lot of parking. Good for one or two nights if doing a lot of day sightseeing and need a place to sleep. Would not suggest for romantic get-away. No free internet. Not really worth the price we paid.

Our first night there, we had a room in the building closest to the main street. The room was older and noisy. The rest of our stay was in the building at the back, the room was large, clean, quiet and newly renovated. would stay there again!

My partner and I stayed at this hotel for one night on our trip down to south France. It was very decent. The rooms were a little small but had everythig you could expect and were clean. Breakfast was nice, although served in a rather tacky dining room. The staff was nice and helpful. Would stay there again.
