Stayed here in mid-March, and was wonderfully surprised. Hotel is centrally location on Place Bellecour square; A brief 5 minute walk to Cathédrale St-Jean (across bridge); or to the pedestrian only Republique street for cafes and shopping; or to the river frontage and subway.

Staff was fluent in English and very helpful with directions and suggestions.

Breakfast was sparse (Coffee, juice, croissant and baguette).
Free wi-fi access.

Room appeared to be recently renovated; bathroom was nicely appointed; water pressure was excellent.

No on-street parking nearby; Parking garage (fee) was available at sister hotel 'Alexandra' on Victor Hugo street, which is 10 minute walk away.

After 10pm, entry requires cypher code to enter building, as property is unstaffed after this time.

Cute hotel, value for money, well located on Place Bellecour and Le Sud (Bocuse restaurant), great shower (very important), tourist information centre nearby as well as numerous restaurants, shops and cafes.

The central location in Lyon is great, across from the main square and near the subway. The hotel itself is in an odd spot in an old office building, up a long flight of stone stairs from the street. To reach our family room, one also goes through the kitchen and a utility entrance, and must navigate a dank set of steps. But the room was large and clean, and adequate and affordable for a one-night stay.

Good, very central location for seeing Lyon by foot. Very friendly and helpful staff. Maybe slightly worn rooms, but on the whole very nice. We booked again for this year's trip.
